BACKGROUND:

The Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD) received notification of amendment from the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) on December 1, 2021, to amend CCTR-1028 for the General Child Care and Development Program. The additional allocation is to provide a cost of living adjustment (COLA) authorized pursuant to Section 265(b) of Assembly Bill 131 (Chapter 116, Statues of 2021).

Effective July 1, 2021, the CDSS is administering this program based on the Early Childhood Development Act of 2020 (Senate Bill 98, Chapter 24, Statutes of 2020). The County receives funds to provide general childcare services to program-eligible residents. The program is operated by the Employment and Human Services Department, Community Services Bureau. The County Board of Supervisors approved the original agreement on July 13, 2021 (C.46), in the amount of $3,855,946. This Board Order is to accept additional funds in the amount of $182,566 from the State.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, County will not receive additional funding to operate the General Child Care and Development Program.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

The Employment and Human Services Department's Community Services Bureau supports three of Contra Costa County’s community outcomes - Outcome 1: “Children Ready for and Succeeding in School,” Outcome 2: “Families that are Economically Self-sufficient,” and, Outcome 3: “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.
