SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF STATE AGREEMENT FOR REFUGEE EMPLOYMENT SOCIAL

SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION•
Approve and authorize the Social Service Department Director
to execute, subject to County Counsel approval, State of
California standard agreement #29-022-7 for Refugee
Employment Social Services for the period October 1, 1987
through December 31, 1988 in the revised amount of $165, 262,
together with any subsequent amendments thereto.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funding is from the Federal Office of Refugee Resettlement
(ORR) . No County funds are involved.
BACKGROUND:
The Board resolved on November 10, 1987 that the Social
Service Department would be responsible for administering the
Refugee Employment Social Services Program when RESS
management responsibilities were transferred from the State
to the County effective July 1, 1988. Part of the transfer
process involves execution of a State standard agreement to
permit pass-through of Federal ORR funds ( and any subsequent
"rollover" funds) to the County' s RESS Program. The County
Plan for Refugee Services (which incorporates RESS services)
was approved by the Board on April 5, 1988, and has been
approved by the State.
On September 13, 1988, the Board approved execution of the
above-referenced State standard agreement in the amount of
$150,036. The Social Service Department received telephone
notification late on September 13 , 1988, that additional
funds had just been made available to California and that
Contra Costa County' s allocation would be increased by
$15,226. The State is requesting a revised Board Order
showing the new total amount of $165, 262.
