RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, to execute a contract with First Baptist Church of Pittsburg, California, including a modified indemnification language, in an amount not to exceed $363,961 to provide Early Head Start Program Enhancement and State General Childcare Development services for the term July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$120,000 Federal funds / CFDA # 93.600 (32.9%)
Administration for Children and Families

FISCAL IMPACT: (CONT'D)

$243,961 State funds (67.1%)
California Department of Education

BACKGROUND:

The Department, though the Community Services Bureau, manages a childcare operation that include Early Head Start and State General Childcare Development programs. In order to reach a wider community, the Bureau sub-contracts with community based agencies to provide services. This contract is to further the reach of the above mentioned programs by providing 20 program slots for State General Childcare and 20 program slots for Early Head Start Program enhancement.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, County will not be able to more widely distribute childcare availability through partnership with community based agencies.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

The Employment & 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.
