RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Resolution No. 2018/147 recognizing the month of May as Community Action Month, as recommended by the Employment and Human Services Director.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None.

BACKGROUND:

The Community Action Agencies were created when the Economic Opportunities Act of 1964 was signed into law. The Contra Costa County Employment and Human Services Department, Community Services Bureau, is the Community Action Agency for Contra Costa County. The Community Services Bureau with all its community partnerships has made an essential contribution to individuals and families in Contra Costa County, by providing them with innovative and cost-effective programs to help those with limited income to become self-sufficient.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Community Action Agency will not be recognized for its contributions to helping low income residents become self-sufficient.
