RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Department Director, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with We Care Services for Children, to increase the payment limit by


$7,689.60 to a new payment limit of $245,376 for State Preschool services with no change to the term July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Increase of $7,689.60 in expenditures. 100% funded with State, California Department of Education funds. There is no County match.

BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa County receives funds from California Department of Education to provide State Preschool services to program eligible County residents. The State requires an indemnification clause with County subcontractors wherein the subcontractor holds harmless the State and its officers for any losses. In order to provide a wider distribution of services to County residents, the Department contracts with a number of community-based organizations. The board approved the 2019-20 contract on September 10, 2019 (c.123) to fund State Preschool services to 48 program-eligible children and families in the Central Contra Costa County area. This board order is to approve an amendment to this contract to pass through the higher childcare daily reimbursement rate from the State to the County's childcare partners. The state routinely increases the daily reimbursement rate during the program year.  
  
2019-20 We Care Services for Children State Preschool contract amendment  

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, County will not be able to pass through the increased daily reimbursement rate.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

This contract amendment 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" by offering comprehensive services, including high quality early childhood education, nutrition, and health services to low-income children throughout Contra Costa County.
