CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
The Community Services Bureau of the Employment & Human Services Department's
Head Start program 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.
BACKGROUND:
On March 13, 2007, the Board of Supervisors approved an agreement between the County
and Richmond Elementary School, Inc. for the County to provide food services via the
Community Services Bureau of Employment & Human Services Department to program
eligible children co-enrolled in the California Food Program and the education programs.
In order to facilitate the success of this partnership, the Department needs to continue the
provision of food services to Richmond Elementary School, Inc. In return, the school will
reimburse the County for all food service costs up to the reimbursement that the school
receives from the California Child and Adult Food Program.
