RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment & Human Services Director, or designee, to execute a contract with the Young Men's Christian Association of the East Bay in an amount not to exceed $850,200 to provide Early Head Start and Head Start Program Enhancement services in Richmond, San Pablo and Rodeo for the period of July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract for childcare services is 100% federally funded by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families Head Start Program.

CFDA #93.600

BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa County receives funds from the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) to provide Head Start program services for program eligible County residents. The Department, in turn, contracts with a number of community-based organizations to provide a wider distribution of services. This contract is for 180 Early Head Start and Head Start program enhancement childcare slots for services in Richmond, San Pablo and Rodeo through this partnership with the Young Men's Christian Association of the East Bay.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, the County will be unable to widely distribute childcare availability through the Young Men's Christian Association of the East Bay.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

The Employment and Human Services Department 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 for low-income children throughout Contra Costa County.
