RECOMMENDATION(S):

REAPPOINT Carol Carillo to the Sector Seat 4 - Child Abuse Prevention Council, Marianne Gagen to Al-Large 3 seat, and Joseph DeLuca to At-Large 4 seat on the Family and Children's Trust Committee to terms that will expire on September 30, 2021.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact.

BACKGROUND:

On December 13, 2011, the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 2011/497 adopting policy governing appointments to boards, committees, and commissions that are advisory to the Board of Supervisors. Included in this resolution was a requirement that applications for at large/countywide seats be reviewed by a Board of Supervisors committee.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

The purpose of the Family and Children's Trust (FACT) Committee is to establish priorities and make funding recommendations to the Board of Supervisors on the allocation of specific funds for prevention and intervention services to reduce child abuse and neglect, and to provide supportive services to families and children. Funding for FACT supported projects derive from federal and state program legislation, and donations to the County’s Family and Children’s Trust Fund.

The FACT Committee also provides information and data to the Employment and Human Services Department on the effectiveness of current and proposed programs for families and children and on recent or pending legislation that would potentially impact family and children’s services programs, clients, or funding mechanisms.

FACT Committee is composed by:

Five At-Large seats
One representative from each of the five Supervisorial Districts
Five discipline/sector specific seats

There are currently 13 seats filled and there are two vacancies on FACT. The Committee has vacancies in the Sector Seat 3 and Sector Seat 2.
Current FACT Committee seat members live or work in the following areas of the county:

Est (1): District III
Central/South (11): Four discipline specific, Four At-Large, Districts II, IV and V
West (1): District I

Candidates for appointment to the FACT Committee will serve a two-year term. The current terms for the At-Large seats 3 and 4, and the Sector Seat 4 seat are set to expire on September 30, 2019. Therefore, reappointing the incumbents will result in a term expiration of September 30, 2021.

Attached is a memo from the Employment and Human Services Director transmitting her nomination of these appointees to the FACT Committee. The Family and Human Services Committee approved these nominations on July 29, 2019.
