RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment & Human Services Department Director, or designee, to execute a contract with the California Department of Education in an amount not to exceed $5,815,003 to provide childcare and development programs (CalWORKS Stage 2) for the period July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This agreement is 100% funded by the California Department of Education and does not require a County match. State number is C2AP 8009; County number is 29-213-33.

BACKGROUND:

The Department received notification on June 5, 2018 from California Department of Education for the 2018-19 funding allocation for alternative payment / CalWORKS Stage 2 childcare services. This State program provides funding to reimburse a portion of the childcare costs incurred by CalWORKS Stage 2 participants through their participation in the CalWORKS program.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, County will not have funds to operate CalWORKS Stage 2 childcare program.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

The Employment & Human Services Department's Community Services Bureau supports three of Contra Costa County’s community outcomes - Outcome 1: “Children Ready for and Succeeding in School,” Outcome 3: “Families that are Economically Self-sufficient,” and, Outcome 4: “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing.” These outcomes are achieved by offering comprehensive services, including high quality early childhood education, nutrition, and health services to low-income children throughout Contra Costa County.
