FISCAL IMPACT:

$380,276.36: This contract is 36% funded by federal grant funds from the Administration for Children and Families (Head Start and Early Head Start child programs), and the remaining 64% of the contract is State funded through the California Department of Education (CDE). There is no County match requirement. CFDA 93.600. The funds have been budgeted in FY 2022-23.

BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa County receives funds from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (ACF) to provide Head Start and Early Head Start Child Care Partnership services to program eligible County residents. The Employment and Human Services Department, in turn, contracts with a number of community-based organizations to provide a wider distribution of services.  




BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
  
This contract is to provide 24 Head Start and 8 Early Head Start Child Care Partnership services as well as 14 state slots for children age birth to 3 years.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, the County will not be able to fund additional childcare slots in east Contra Costa County via the department’s community based agency partner.

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 to low-income children throughout Contra Costa County.
