RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment & Human Services Director, or designee, to execute an inter-agency agreement with Mount Diablo Unified School District in an amount not to exceed $206,328 to provide Early Head Start Program Enhancement services for the period October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This agreement is funded by federal funds through the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families, CFDA No. 93.600. There is no County match requirement.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, the County's ability to more widely distribute childcare services through partnerships with community based agencies will be hindered.

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 program services to program eligible County residents. The Department of Employment and Human Services (Department), in turn, contracts with a number of community-based organizations to provide a wider distribution of services. This inter-agency agreement supports the continued provision of Early Head Start services through the provision of 28 childcare slots at Crossroads High School.

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.
