RECOMMENDATION(S):
CONSIDER accepting the report from the Employment and Human Services Department on the department's
implementation of the foster care Continuum of Care Reform.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Although the details on the terms of the reimbursement mechanism and timing of payments to ensure cost neutrality
on the assistance payments and administrative costs of the Continuum of Care Reform program have not been
communicated to counties by the California Department of Social Services, it is expected that no additional County
general funds will be required.
BACKGROUND:
In September 2012, the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) in partnership with the County Welfare
Directors Association of California (CWDA) launched the Continuum of Care Reform (CCR) effort. Authorized
through Senate Bill (SB) 1013 (Statutes of 2012), the CCR will develop recommended revisions to the state’s current
rate setting system, services and programs serving children and families in the continuum of Aid to Families with
Dependent Children – Foster Care (AFDC-FC) eligible placement settings.

Subject:F&HS Rerferral No. 44 Challenges for EHSD - Continuum of Care: Foster Care
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 16
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
>
For the past several years, the Employment and Human Services - Children and Family Services has been working
toward the inevitable implementation of Continuum of Care Reform by following state guidelines for reducing
youth in congregate care and closely monitoring those that are in care by semi annual justifications and step down
plans to make sure youth are either returned to their biological parents or raised in family based care.
On June 7, 2016, the Board of Supervisors approved the recommendation of the Employment and Human
Services Director to eliminate the "Office of the Future" component of the Family and Human Services Referral
#44 - Challenges for EHSD and expanded the referral to include a report on the Continuum of Care (Foster Care)
topic. Including this topic will allow the department to keep the Board informed of Continuum of Care Reform
(CCR), AB 403, which is a comprehensive reform effort built on many years of policy changes designed to
improve outcomes for youth in foster care. The goal of CCR is to ensure that youth in foster care have their
day-to-day physical, mental, and emotional needs met; that they have the greatest chance to grow up in permanent
and supportive homes; and that they have the opportunity to grow into self-sufficient, successful adults.
On September 12, 2016, the Family and Human Service Committee accepted a report from the Employment and
Human Services Department on foster care Continuum of Care Reform and approved forwarding the report to the
Board as a meeting discussion item.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Board will not be informed on the State directives to the County regarding the implementation of AB 403 -
Continuum of Care Reform.

SUBJECT: Continuum of Care Reform (CCR)
RECOMMENDATION
Accept this report from the Employment and Human Services Department; and continue
to support the Children and Family Services (CFS) Bureau and its efforts to improve
services to dependent children and youth.
BACKGROUND
The Continuum of Care Reform, AB 403, is a comprehensive reform effort built on many
years of policy changes designed to improve outcomes for youth in foster care. The goal
is to ensure that youth in foster care have their day-to-day physical, mental, and
emotional needs met; that they have the greatest chance to grow up in permanent and
supportive homes; and that they have the opportunity to grow into self-sufficient,
successful adults.
FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF CCR:
All children deserve to live with a committed, nurturing, and permanent family that
prepares the youth for a successful transition into adulthood.
Both the child and family's experience and voice are important in assessment,
placement and service planning. Child and Family Team meetings, which include the
child, family, and members of their formal and informal support network, will meet as a
foundation for ensuring all perspectives are considered throughout the life of the case.
All placement types should be able to provide access to the services and supports,
including behavioral and mental health services, that the child in placement needs.
Agencies serving children and youth including; child welfare, probation, mental health,
education, and other community service providers, need to collaborate effectively to
surround the child and family with needed services, resources and supports rather than
requiring the child and caregivers to navigate multiple service providers.
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 18
The goal for all children in foster care is safety, permanency and well being while
establishing permanent life-long relationships. CCR guides the transition away from the
traditional use of long-term group home care by transforming existing group home care
into short term, residential treatment programs for youth who are not ready to live with
families in home-based care.
PROGRESS TO DATE:
Contra Costa County has been planning for the January 1, 2017 implementation of
Resource Family Approval (RFA) for the past 12 months. RFA is an important shift in the
way that Children and Family Services approves caregivers as it supports placement with
families that can provide a lifelong connection by determining permanency approval
upfront. Contra Costa County was one of the first five non-implementation counties to
submit their RFA Implementation plan to the state.
EHSD has created a collaborative CCR Executive Team and a Steering Committee with
management representatives from Children and Family Services, the CAO’s office,
Behavioral Health Department, and Probation Department to guide workgroups tasked
with different components of CCR, such as Child and Family Team Meetings, Group
Homes and Foster Family Agencies, Training, and Data.
Children and Family Services has been collecting data on the (approximately) one
hundred dependent children who are currently in group home placements to assess
their potential for stepping down to home-based care and to determine their specific
services and treatment needs.
Children and Family Services has also been meeting with providers, including Group
Homes and Foster Family Agencies (FFAs) in order to communicate the needs of Contra
Costa County dependents and assist them with their transition to CCR.
Over the past year, Children and Family Services has also developed new strategies and
a renewed focus on recruiting and retaining quality non-relative and relative resource
families.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION
The Continuum of Care Reform draws together a series of existing and new reforms to
our child welfare services program designed out of an understanding that children who
must live apart from their biological parents do best when they are cared for in
committed, nurturing family homes. AB 403 provides the statutory and policy
framework to ensure services and supports provided to the child and his or her family
are tailored toward the ultimate goal of maintaining a stable, permanent family.
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 19
With the Board’s support and commitment to the Continuum of Care Reform, EHSD will
utilize CCR to better meet the needs of our dependent children and to promote positive
outcomes for youth as they transition out of foster care.

CHALLENGES AHEAD
Recruiting Foster Families
Increase community awareness of need for caregivers and the
specific needs of our youth
Increased training and support service needed for
caregivers
Greater number of high needs youth who will be transitioning
to home based care
Payment Rates
Restructured rates need to sufficiently account for higher,
more intensive levels of services that will require an increase
in the Foster Care budget
Some Group Homes may not be able to make the
conversion to STRTP
This will result in fewer placements for challenging youth and
reliance on home based care
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 33
MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES CHALLENGES
•Additional resources needed to monitor and facilitate
the implementation of Early and Periodic Screening,
Diagnostic, and Treatment (EPSDT) Specialty Mental
Health Services by FFA’s and Foster homes, as well as
provide Mental Health Consultation and Training.
•Increased need for Utilization Review, authorization, and
monitoring of service delivery and documentation
•Increased need of Outpatient and Crisis services that will
require greater resources and Staffing

RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Traffic Resolution No. 2016/4449 to prohibit parking at all times except for vehicles of individuals with
disabilities (blue curb), on a portion of Highland Avenue (Road No. 1065AB), as recommended by the Public Works
Director, East Richmond Heights area. (District I)
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact.
BACKGROUND:
The resident at 6311 Highland Avenue, Elizabeth Underwood, requested that a disabled parking space be establish in
front of her residence. In response, Traffic Engineering staff initiated an investigation which included an on-site visit.
It was determined that the resident possesses a valid disabled parking placard due to her limited mobility. Although a
viable driveway was observed at her residence, due to its pitch, the resident indicated that it would be easier for her to
get in and out of her car if it were parked on the street. 6311 Highland Avenue is on the east side of a short block
between Plymouth Avenue and

Taft Avenue. The only other residence that could be affected by establishment of a disabled parking space is the
residence at 6276 Taft Avenue, which is the location of a private daycare for small children. Parents sometimes
park on Highland Avenue to drop off or pick up their children. The resident of 6276 Taft Avenue was contacted,
and concurred with the request for disabled parking. It was determined by Public Works staff that establishment of
a disabled parking space would have minimal impact on residential parking overall.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
No disabled parking space will be established and parking will remain available to the general public without
restriction at this location.

(8) DELEGATE, pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 4114, to the Public Works Director, or designee, the
Board’s functions under Public Contract Code Sections 4107 and 4110.
(9) DECLARE that, should the award of the contract to Dillard Trucking be invalidated for any reason, the Board
would not in any event have awarded the contract to any other bidder, but instead would have exercised its discretion
to reject all of the bids received. Nothing in this Board Order shall prevent the Board from re-awarding the contract to
another bidder in cases where the successful bidder establishes a mistake, refuses to sign the contract, or fails to
furnish required bonds or insurance (see Public Contract Code Sections 5100-5107).
FISCAL IMPACT:
The contract, for a maximum amount of $300,000, will be funded by 100% Local Road and Flood Control Funds.
BACKGROUND:
The above project was previously approved by the Board of Supervisors, plans and specifications were filed with the
Board, and bids were invited by the Public Works Director. On October 4, 2016, the Public Works Department
received bids from the following contractors:
BIDDER, TOTAL AMOUNT, BOND AMOUNTS
USA Trucking, Inc.: $270.00 Total Unit Price
Dillard Trucking, Inc.: $284.00 Total Unit Price
Economy Trucking Services, Inc.: $376 Total Unit Price
The Public Works Director has determined that USA Trucking submitted a non-responsive bid by failing to supply
the insurance requirements as detailed in the project specification and failing to provide current registration with the
Department of Industrial Relations as detailed in the Notice to Bidders.
The bidder listed first above, USA Trucking, Inc., submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid, which is
$14.00 (Total Unit Price) less than the next lowest bid.
Dillard Trucking submitted the lowest responsive and responsible bid, which is $92.00 (Total Unit Price) less than
the next lowest bid.
The Public Works Director has reported that the bid submitted by Dillard Trucking complies with the requirements
provided in the project specifications, and recommends that contract be awarded to Dillard Trucking.
The Public Works Director recommends that the bid submitted by Dillard Trucking is the lowest responsive and
responsible bid, and this Board concurs and so finds.
The general prevailing rates of wages, which shall be the minimum rates paid on this project, have been filed with
the Clerk of the Board, and copies will be made available to any party upon request.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Public Works Department may be unable to complete routine road and flood control maintenance work in a
timely manner.

Subject:Add 17 Eligibility Worker I positions and cancel 17 Medi-Cal Program Assistant positions in EHSD
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 121
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Over time eligibility workers may be eligible to apply for and/or promote into higher level eligibility worker,
Medi-Cal Program Assistant and Social Service Program Assistant positions. Due to turnover and the specialized
minimum qualifications of the Medi-Cal Program Assistant classification, it has been challenging to fill positions
at this level.
The department has identified 17 vacant Medi-Cal positions that would be better filled at the beginning stages of
the eligibility work classifications. This will provide the department the opportunity to hire entry level eligibility
workers that can participate in the EWTU and over time become eligible to move up through the eligibility worker
classifications, and support the department’s efforts to provide timely services to families and individuals eligible
for CalWORKS, CalFresh and Medi-Cal program. Therefore, the department is requesting to cancel 17 vacant
Medi-Cal Program Assistant positions and add 17 Eligibility Worker I positions.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If these positions are not approved, EHSD will not have the appropriate staffing levels to provide assistance to
families of CalWORKS, CalFresh and Medi-Cal programs.

Subject:Consulting Services Agreement for Architectural Services for New Fire Station 70 in San Pablo
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 157
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
with the City of San Pablo, an alternate site at 1800 23rd Street was made available to relocate the station. Since
those discussions, preliminary site plans have been developed and the project appears feasible for the new location.
The city of San Pablo has pledged $2.5 million in funds to assist in the construction and relocation of the station. A
funding and construction agreement is currently being negotiated and is anticipated to be finalized within the next
two months.
The new station would be built to house two full three-person crews for potential expansion of services in the future
and will include modern seismic standards as well as being able to meet ADA requirements. The station would be
built to provide protection for the community over the next fifty years and would allow for the facility to provide
personnel with the components, systems, and features found in a modern fire station.
This Consulting Services Agreement (CSA) would be administered by the Public Works Department on behalf of the
District.
On behalf of the District, the Public Works Department requested Statements of Qualifications ("SOQs") for
architectural services for District fire station design projects, including the rebuilding of Fire Station 16. The Public
Works Department received 18 SOQ's from interested firms and 5 firms were shortlisted. A selection committee
comprised of County and District staff conducted interviews and ranked the short-listed firms. Loving Campos
Associates Architects, Inc. (LCA) was one of the top ranking firms. It is recommended that LCA be awarded the
agreement for the subject project.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the agreement is not approved, architectural plans and specifications cannot be completed and a new fire station
would not be constructed. Delays in construction could increase construction costs significantly based on the recent,
and expected, trends in overall costs of constructing essential use facilities.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute a purchase
order amendment with GroupWare Technology, Inc., to add $14,495 to a new total amount not to exceed $244,495,
to cover the taxes for the purchase of UCS/Cisco blade servers, with no change in the term end date of September 30,
2019.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funding is included in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I budget.
BACKGROUND:
Health Services’ Electronic Medical Record System (ccLink/Epic) is delivered by an internal cloud. The hardware
that hosts the cloud platform consists of Cisco blade servers which are now outdated and will no longer be eligible
for maintenance and support at the end of this calendar year. The additional funds are for taxes which were not
included on the original purchase order.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Current hardware will no longer be eligible for maintenance and support at the end of the calendar year. Because this
hardware hosts the cloud platform for the Health Services Electronic Medical Record System, failure to purchase new
hardware can negatively impact the patient medical records system.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Board Order will allow for the purchase of twenty-two hand-held radios with accessories that will be identical to the
Contra Costa Fire Protection District radios.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this Purchase Order is not approved the communications during a hazardous materials incident may be hampered,
the impact to the public may increase, and the potential of injury to emergency responders may increase.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute a Purchase
Order with Watermark Medical, Inc., in the amount of $216,000 for the rental of the Ares Home Sleep Apnea
Evaluation Systems at the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers, for the
period of November 1, 2016 through October 31, 2017.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funding is included in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I budget.
BACKGROUND:
There has been an increase in the number of patients needing to be tested to rule out obstructive sleep apnea. This
increase has been caused by general recognition of the disorder, as well as the fact that testing was being conducted
in only one location, CCRMC. The additional devices will be utilized at the Health Centers.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this Purchase Order is not approved there will be delays in testing patients.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
ACCEPT the Small Business Enterprise and Outreach Report covering the period January 2015 - June 2016.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Increasing the participation of small businesses, especially local businesses, in contracting opportunities may directly
stimulate local economic activity and therefore potentially increase County tax revenues.
BACKGROUND:
On December 13, 1999, the Board of Supervisors approved the Small Business Enterprise (SBE) Program for the
purpose of providing small businesses a fair share of County business. The Outreach Program had previously been
adopted by the Board of Supervisors in August 1998 to promote broad outreach to all businesses, including
minority-owned, women-owned, small, and local businesses, and was later broadened to include disadvantaged and
veteran-owned businesses. The IOC has provided policy oversight on these programs since inception, including
surveying County departments on the implementation of the SBE and Outreach Programs. In December 2004, the
Internal Operations Committee directed the Affirmative Action Officer to make status reports to the Committee on a
semi-annual basis.
The IOC received the last report in October 2015, which covered calendar year 2014. On October 24, the IOC
received and considered the attached report, which covers the period January 2015 through June 2016. The
Committee accepted the report and requested the Purchasing Services Manager to the IOC in February 2017 with a
follow-up report showing the top 50-100 commodities less than $100,000 purchased by the County.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
CONTINUE the emergency action originally taken by the Board of Supervisors on November 16, 1999 regarding the
issue of homelessness in Contra Costa County.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
BACKGROUND:
On November 16, 1999, the Board of Supervisors declared a local emergency, pursuant to the provisions of
Government Code Section 8630 on homelessness in Contra Costa County.
Government Code Section 8630 requires that, for a body that meets weekly, the need to continue the emergency
declaration be reviewed at least every 14 days until the local emergency is terminated. In no event is the review to
take place more than 21 days after the previous review. On October 25, 2016 the Board of Supervisors reviewed and
approved the emergency declaration.
With the continuing high number of homeless individuals and insufficient funding available to assist in sheltering all
homeless individuals and families, it is appropriate for the Board to continue the declaration of a local emergency
regarding homelessness.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
ACCEPT the report from the Local Planning and Advisory Council for Early Care and Education on the council's
activities, accomplishments, and proposed work plan and objectives for 2016-17.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact.
BACKGROUND:
California Education Code (EC) Section 8231 requires that Local Planning Councils prepare a comprehensive
countywide child care plan designed to mobilize public and private resources to address identified needs. Projects and
activities of the Contra Costa LPC align with legislative intent for Local Planning Councils to serve as a forum to
address the child care needs of all families and all child care programs, both subsidized and non-subsidized in Contra
Costa County (Ed code Sections 8499.3 and 8499.5).
On October 17, 2006, the Board of Supervisors referred updates on the Countywide Child Care Plan to the Family
and Human Services Committee and the Local Planning and Advisory Council for Early Care and Education has
provided annual reports.

Council Activities-Referral #92
CC: Karen Sakata, Contra Costa County Superintendent of Schools
Dr. Pamela Comfort, Deputy Superintendent of Schools
LPC Chair and Vice Chairs
RECOMMENDATION(S):
1) ACCEPT the activities report and key accomplishments during fiscal year 2015-2016 for the LPC as they
relate to Education Code - Section 8499.3 – 8499.7 and the implementation of the multi-year Comprehensive
Countywide Plan for Early Care and Education 2014 through 2017.
REASON/S FOR RECOMMENDATION:
California Education Code (EC) Section 8231 requires that Local Planning Councils prepare a comprehensive
countywide child care plan designed to mobilize public and private resources to address identified needs.
Projects and activities of the Contra Costa LPC align with legislative intent for Local Planning Councils to serve
as a forum to address the child care needs of all families and all child care programs, both subsidized and non-subsidized in
Contra Costa County (Ed code Sections 8499.3 and 8499.5).
BACKGROUND:
The Contra Costa County Local Planning and Advisory Council for Early Care and Education (LPC) was
established in April 1998. Required by AB 1542, which was passed in 1993, thirty members of the LPC were
appointed by the County Board of Supervisors and the County Superintendent of Schools. Childcare
consumers and providers, public agency representatives, and community representatives each comprise 20% of
the LPC. The remaining 20% are discretionary appointees. Membership is for a three year term.
On January 7, 2003, membership was decreased from 30 to 25 members, due to the difficulty being experienced
in filling all of the seats. On September 19, 2012 membership was decreased from 25 to 20, due to continued
difficulty to fill vacant seats. Official reduction of appointed seats provides flexibility to ensure quorum is met in
order to conduct Council business.

I. SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES
a. Hosted the 12th Annual Young Children’s Issues Forum – Speak Out for Children: Educate
and Advocate on Saturday, March 12, 2016. Over 275 teachers, school administrators, college
faculty, community advocates, local government officials, parents, business leaders, and state
legislators attended the Forum held at the Pleasant Hill Community Center, in Pleasant Hill, CA. The
topic of focus for this year’s forum is the national movement towards Quality Early Care and
Education, legislation, and the essential role of the teacher in high quality early childhood education.
The guest Keynote Speaker at the forum was Dr. Julie Nicholson with a presentation titled: “Keeping
Teachers and Equity at the Center of Early Childhood Systems Reform: Promises, Perils and Collective
Responsibilities in Striving to Improve Quality”
b. Convened Ad Hoc Child Care Facilities Committee to address shortage of child care
facilities in the county and hosted a Round Table Meeting on November 23, 2015. The
meeting was attended by 35 community stakeholders including County Board of Supervisors,
County Office of Education, First 5 Contra Costa, Contra Costa Child Care Council (R&R),
Housing Authority Offices, Regional HUD Representative, County Community Development
Department; and all LPC members. Intended outcomes for this meeting were to: a) discuss current
challenges faced by the child care industry related to facility development and availability; b) provide
an overview of current supply of child care facilities; and to c) discuss economic and systemic
implications due to unavailability of child care facilities.
c. Coordinated and Facilitated four Quarterly State Funded Program Administrators Network
(SFPAN) meetings held at the CCCOE and facilitated by the LPC Coordinator. The State
Funded Administrators Network (SFPAN) convenes 14 agencies that contract with the California
Department of Education to provide General Child Care Services for children ages 0-12 and State
Preschool services for high need families and children throughout Contra Costa. The SFPAN
includes the county’s Head Start and Early Head Start providers and the CalWorks child care
voucher program known as the Alternative Payment Program which includes stage 1, stage 2 and
stage 3 families.
d. LPC Coordinator is CCCOE’s administrator for the California State Preschool Program
QRIS Block Grant and Infant and Toddler QRIS Block Grant contracts for Contra Costa
County. The LPC is actively involved in the local planning, coordination and implementation of
quality improvement services, professional development and growth activities and incentives, and
countywide efforts to increase public awareness of “quality indicators” through the Contra Costa
Quality Matters program.
II. ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Nurture and Retain a Qualified Early Care and Education Workforce
As in previous years, the LPC has offered multiple professional growth and development services and
incentives in Contra Costa County. The LPC was approved by the California Department of Education
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 252
(CDE) in 2015 -2016 to support teaching staff and the leadership (Site Supervisors and Directors) at state-
funded Early Care and Education (ECE) programs by providing stipends for participation at various levels
and through multiple commitments to participation. Total stipends issued in 2015-16 of $95,910 were paid
to 86 AB212 eligible staff. The LPC chose to implement the following activities under the sponsorship of
AB212 funding.
a. Professional Development Program (PDP) Services and Incentives: During fiscal year (FY) 2015-
2016, the Contra Costa LPC partnered with First 5 Contra Costa for the final year of CARES Plus
funding. During the application period, 130 applications were received from AB212 educators. After
completing approved PDP activities, a total of 78 AB212 staff received incentives in one or more
components or incentive categories. Stipends were awarded to 77 early educators and one school-age
participant in PDP for a total of $86,310.
b. Site Supervisor and Director Professional Learning Communities Project (PLC) - The LPC
received 10 applications for participants to the 2015-2016 PLC. During the project the leaders
participated in activities, with eight Site Supervisor/Directors completed all activities in the Professional
Learning Community (PLC) and were deemed eligible to receive stipends of $1200 each for a total of
$9600.
c. An additional service that continued to be funded and provided through AB212 allocations was
the Foreign Transcript Evaluation Services offered in PDP - Three evaluations were completed by
an evaluation service to assist individuals with education from outside the United States with applying
for or advancing on the Child Development Permit or degree completion - $1,240
d. Community Hot Topics Seminar: 12th Annual Young Children’s Issues Forum 2016 Speak Out for
Children– On Saturday, March 12, 2016, over 275 teachers, school administrators, college faculty,
community advocates, local government officials, parents, business leaders, and state legislators attended
the 12th Annual Young Children’s Issues Forum “Speak Out For Children: Educate and Advocate” held
at the Pleasant Hill Community Center, in Pleasant Hill, CA. Certificates of Professional Growth Hours
were issued – AB212 funds partially supported the implementation of the Forum.
Through the partnership with First 5 Contra Costa, Contra Costa Community Colleges, and the Contra
Costa Child Care Council, the AB212 program supported the early care and education programs and staff
to build on previous services developed and critical to the Quality Rating and Improvement System
components of workforce development. PDP stipend details follow:
A total of 130 applications were received from AB212 educators in November 2015 for participation in the
Professional Development Program by advisors at each of the three colleges in the Contra Costa
Community College District or by AB212 Staff. The college advisors provided Information Sessions,
education advising towards degrees, regular individual advising sessions, and documentation acceptance.
AB212 staff continued to provide the same services at employment sites, through advising appointments,
Child Development Permit application processing and related professional growth advising sessions, and
training, as needed, for understanding of renewal requirements for the Child Development Permit.

AB212 Program: Site Supervisor and Director Professional Learning Community (PLC)
In 2015-2016, the Professional Learning Community accepted 10 applications for participation and launched
a program with changes from previous years. As QRIS becomes more familiar to state-funded program
administrators, there is a heightened awareness of the added requirements for professionalism, enhanced
skills, and changing roles for leaders. The Professional Learning Community (PLC) participants this year
represented eight uniquely different sites, with personalized expectations for themselves that allowed for rich
discussions and networking with each other. PLC members were employed with the county Head Start
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 254
contractors and state preschool sites. All members hold Site Supervisor positions at varying levels and wished
to gain professional development primarily in communication skills with staff and parents.
Although we did not use the electronic platform for discussions, instead the LPC provided a two-day
Leadership Academy to launch the Site Supervisor and Director PLC activities for 2015-16. The Leadership
Academy was set-up in a retreat-like environment to invite deep conversation and discussion among the new
members of the PLC and to foster relationship development and camaraderie among the group. Activities
provided during the Leadership Academy included an overview and discussion of PLC concepts and Norms
developed to create the environment of trusting relationships. A single participant was unable to attend the
Leadership Academy and to complete the initial milestones of participation for the PLC. Therefore, this
participant was dropped from the PLC cohort and was supported and encouraged to participate next year.
Participants had been introduced to an online leadership module from Aim4Excellence and were required to
begin the module before the Leadership Academy. A trainer contracted through the McCormick Center for
Early Childhood Leadership from Illinois presented concepts of leadership and Aim4Excellence, which
would be further developed in the discussions during Networking face-to-face sessions. These and other
concepts and activities developed relationships and interactions that supported PLC concepts and cross-
agency sharing. Areas of focus and goals for participants included:
• Increasing leadership skills and competencies, professionalism, support for staff professional
development, and communication
• Mentoring and creating healthy climate in the workplace
• Deepening leader and staff ability to reflect, re-focus, and ensure organizational policies and
procedures are understood
• Strengthening family involvement
A consistent and collaborative group of nine PLC members continued to engage in face-to-face sessions for
relevant discussions, sharing and support. AB212 staff facilitated face-to-face sessions, while providing
individual and small group supports, services, and discussions. The strength of the PLC was the commitment
that each member made to attendance and participation, although often times they admitted that it was a
challenge with external influences and site based issues that would occur often (such as Federal reviews and
staff re-assignments).
The PLC Survey showed that many agreed in their responses that it was challenging, but definitely worth
participation. Stipends were issued at full amount of $1200 for eight as an employment status change for one
deemed them ineligible at the end of the year.
Child Development Permit Application Processing Services
AB212 staff continued to assist early childhood educators to apply for new, renewal and upgrade Child
Development Permit applications. A total of 111 permit applications were processed to date with 20 from
AB212 Professional Development Program (PDP) participants who submitted Permit applications. Permit
applications were received from 94 early childhood educators who did not apply for PDP but needed permit
application assistance. In 2015-2016, AB212 staff have seen an increase in online renewals by Contra Costa
County early childhood professionals. There seems to be a better understanding of the process for online
renewals and many have become more aware of the services which can be provided online. Recent history
has shown that fewer individuals are in need of assistance with accessing their Permit information online and
may contact AB212 staff for guidance in nuances of each Permit. Professional Growth Advising and the
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 255
development of awareness of that may have also increased this online engagement with the Commission on
Teacher Credentialing (CTC).

California Transitional Kindergarten Stipend Project (CTKS) 2014-2019
The 2014-2025 Budget Act allocated $15 million statewide for the purpose of providing educational incentives
for Transitional Kindergarten (TK) teachers and teachers in California State Preschool Programs (CSPP).
Funding for the California Transitional Kindergarten Stipend (CTKS) project will be available through March
31, 2019 as one-time-only funding or until all available funding has been expended. This one-time funding
allocation is administered by the California Department of Education (CDE) and disseminated statewide
through Local Planning Councils (LPCs) under contract titled CTKS. These one-time-only funds are to be used
to provide educational and professional development reimbursements for TK teachers (Priority 1) and CSPP
teachers (Priority 2) for completion of credit-bearing coursework in early childhood education or child
development.
CTKS Participation
Current participation guidelines for the Contra Costa CTKS Project are:
Applications accepted year round

III. PROPOSED WORK PLAN/OBJECTIVES FOR 2016-2017
The LPC will continue to oversee the design and implementation of the following projects and priority activities:
• Plan, Coordinate and Host the 13th Annual Young Children’s Issues Forum – Speak Out for
Children: Educate and Advocate scheduled for Saturday, March 18th, 2017 (See Save the Date Flyer
Attached).
• Complete the new Countywide Child Care Needs Assessment 2017-2020
• Seek and secure funding ($74,970) to complete phase 1 and 2 of Contra Costa County Early
Learning Facility Needs Assessment (ELF). The Early Learning Facilities Needs Assessment would
update the prior Child Care Needs Assessment for 2017 (a statutory mandate for the LPC), and would
provide key analysis and data on an implementation effort to increase the supply of child care facilities in
the County. The LPC submitted a request to Brion Economics, Inc. (the vendor that completed the
most current child care needs assessment for Contra Costa) for a multi-phase proposal – see attached.
• Convene Annual LPC Member Retreat on December 2, 2016 to begin strategic planning process for
Contra Costa County Comprehensive Countywide Early Care and Education Plan 2017-2020 (See Save
the Date Flyer).
• Participate, support and align funding goals to support countywide efforts to improve the quality of
all Early Care and Education programs through the Quality Matters (QRIS) Project.
• Co-sponsor teacher incentives and professional development services offered through Contra
Costa County PDP utilizing AB212 funding and in partnership with First 5 Contra Costa. AB212
services include the Site Supervisor and Director Professional Learning Community Project.
• Continue implementation of the California Transitional Kindergarten Stipend Project (CTKS) by
continuing to build and maintain relationships with TK Coordinators, State Preschool (CSPP)
Administrators and TK/CSPP teachers in Contra Costa County.

Subject: Proposal to Prepare Phases 1 and 2 of Early Learning Facilities Needs Assessment
(ELF) Study, Contra Costa County; BEI: #2529
Dear Ms. Fernandez,
On behalf of the BEI team, I am pleased to submit this proposal to prepare a countywide
assessment of ELC facility needs and expansion possibilities, for serving children ages 0 to 12
years old. Brion Economics, Inc. (formerly Brion & Associates) has put together a team of child
care experts to conduct this study and would function as the prime consultant for this effort.
Our team has years of experience in all facets of child care planning from policy making,
finance, design, and operations.
BEI is an Urban Economics firm in business since 2000 and works for cities/counties,
developers, and private companies such as Google and Facebook. We have a unique focus in
child care planning and policy that blends it with urban planning and real estate development.
The following members comprise the team: Joanne Brion, BEI with Michelle Nilsson, Nilsson
Consulting; Francesca Wright, Davis Consultant Network; Kathy Tama, ECE Consultant; and Jay
Beckwith, Play Design Consultant. Kathy and Jay would be involved in subsequent phases but
we have included their resumes for your information.
Together we have the experience and skills needed to conduct this study over the course of the
next few years. As we discussed, this first proposal covers updating the Needs Assessment and
conducting provider and stakeholder surveys. We will build on the work undertaken back in
2006 and the 2012 update and we will incorporate the lessons learned from our current San
Mateo County work. We will also work with Contra Costa County ELC organizations and staff
that have developed since 2012.

INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
Contra Costa County (CCC) has been at the forefront of child care planning and policy for years.
There is a wealth of engaged professionals, agencies, and departments with expertise in child
care planning. BEI, formally Brion & Associates has a long history working with the County
including the preparation of the extensive Child Care Needs Assessment in 2006, which
included a Preschool for All component, and the 2012 Needs Assessment update. We have also
prepared an economic impact report of the child care industry in CCC.
We see the proposed ELF study as updating the prior Needs Assessment for 2017, and providing
key analysis and data on an implementation effort to increase the supply of child care facilities
in the County. This study will have five phases overall, and this proposal addresses Phases 1
and 2.
1. Countywide Child Care Needs Assessment ‐ 2017 (NA) by City and community area and
countywide, as of 2017 and 2027.
2. Online Surveys & Analysis of Existing Child Care Providers and Stakeholders in County
3. Prepare Child Care Capital Improvement Plan
4. Identify 10 possible ELF sites and conduct site assessments
5. Child Care CIP Financing Strategy for ELF site development
BEI plans to help the County and its partners determine how to operationalize the goal of
increasing the supply of child care facilities and program expansions in areas where need is
determined. We will also evaluate how to maximize all possible child care center options for
new spaces and expansion at existing centers, including centers in commercial buildings, at
school sites, church sites, and nonprofit locations.
We envision this effort as a “Child Care Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and Public/Private
Financing Strategy.” We will model our survey and assessment on the recent work done in San
Mateo County as a starting point. Our concept for a Child Care Financing Strategy is rooted in
our 30‐plus years’ of experience in urban economics and planning, as well as infrastructure and
public facilities planning. Our goal over the last 16 years has been to elevate child care to be
included in the typical public facilities that all cities, counties, and the State fund – including
schools, colleges, parks, roads, sewer and water, storm drainage, etc. This study provides an
opportunity to develop a model that could be implemented elsewhere throughout the state.
We are very excited about this study and its goals and we have put together a stellar team of
consultants to implement it!

Other consultants may be included as needed once we complete Phase 1 and 2 efforts and
have a better idea of what issues need to be addressed in subsequent efforts.
PROPOSED APPROACH – SCOPE OF WORK
Contra Costa County seeks a comprehensive countywide needs assessment study for early
learning facilities serving children ages 0 to 5 that includes current conditions of existing
facilities, interest in expansion from current providers, potential financing models, and roles for
various stakeholders. The study will target early learning centers (ELCs) currently operating in
the County, municipalities, companies, and organizations that may have space for new early
learning programs. This scope represents our collected view of the proposed tasks required to
prepare this study, including several optional tasks we believe would be of great benefit.
As with all of our proposals, we are open to discussing the scope and budget further to ensure
we prepare the best possible study.
Phase 1: Update of Child Care Needs Assessment
Task 1: Project Initiation, Data Collection and Kick‐off Meeting
• Meet with County and other staff involved with project to refine scope, budget, goals, roles,
and timeline. Identify client‐supplied support staff and a County Project Manager.
Page 3 of 3 Submitted by Brion Economics Team – www.brionecon.com
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 263
• Gather all existing studies and data on child care facilities (names, capacity, addresses, etc.)
for all child care centers serving children ages 0 to 12 in the County.
• Review existing studies to extract information and methods for the current study, including
the survey instruments.
• Gather child care supply data and cost of child care data by city, and community area, and
by type of provider and age groups.1
• Gather feedback on 2006 and 2012 BEI efforts so as to improve overall usefulness of Needs
Assessment.
• Analyze and sort data into a defined set of planning areas used throughout the study.
• Identify list of cities, school districts, churches, other non‐profits, developers and private
companies2 that might have the capacity or interest in providing land and/or space for new
or expanded ELC facilities, including commercial space.
Task 2: Current Child Care Supply and Demand Analysis – Needs by Location
Update Child Care Needs Assessment – 2017 and 2027
• Estimate current supply and demand and shortfall of child care spaces for children ages 0 to
12 using any current studies or data available. For this effort we will update our work in
2006, which evaluated supply and demand in all incorporated cities in the County and
several community areas. The analysis will be conducted for two timeframes ‐ 2017 or
current conditions, and a 10‐year forecast of demand at 2027.
• Collect countywide data for all other items required by the state for Needs Assessments.
These include:
o Population by age for children ages 0 to 12
o Ethnicity of children
o Language spoken at home
o Children with IFSP or EIP by age group
o Data on children in Child Protective Services system
o Children in families on CalWORKS by age group
o Income levels of families and children living in poverty
o Children in migrant families
o Children in families earning below 70% of State Median Income (SMI)
o Labor force participation rates in families by age of child
o Demand for part day preschool for 3‐ and 4‐year‐olds
1 The Child Care Council manages this dataset and it is assumed that this data will be provided at no cost to the BEI
team and be provided in a timely manner.

Task 3: Current Child Care Supply and Demand Analysis – Needs by Location
Update date City Summaries or Needs Assessment Profiles, prepared in 2006. We will create
summary sheets, highlighting supply, demand, and other demographic data related to each
specific city.
Phase 2: Provider and Stakeholder Online Surveys
Task 4: Online Surveys of Early Learning Providers and Stakeholders
We will conduct and analyze two different online surveys.
The Early Learning Provider Survey will be designed to understand the status of early learning
facilities in Contra Costa County, to collect information related to supply and demand, and to
identify providers with interest in program expansion. All Contra Costa County licensed and
licensed‐exempt child care and preschool providers will be invited via a personalized email to
respond to the linked survey. The survey will collect information on: site ownership; program
tenure; site condition and maintenance; program waitlists and achievement of enrollment
targets; the program’s interest in expansion; and the conditions which would facilitate or create
barriers to expansion. The budget includes incentives for survey participation. This proposal
assumes that the client will secure a current list of licensed and license‐exempt programs,
including their director’s name and email address, site locations by city or zip code, and
telephone number.
The Early Learning Facilities Stakeholder Survey will seek information and opinions from
persons within public and private entities. One objective will be to identify potential land or
space suitable for early learning programs. Another is to understand stakeholder opinions of
various potential strategies to address anticipated demand for early learning facilities. Both
targeted and open engagement strategies will be employed to invite survey participation.
Targeted stakeholders will include: local government officials, planners, and commissioners;
school district administrators; large employers; real estate developers; other business leaders;
representatives from faith‐based organizations and other non‐profit organizations; and
interested members of the public. The survey will be designed to direct respondents to those
questions most relevant to the sector with which they identify. This proposal assumes the
client will develop lists of individuals from these targeted groups including names, titles,
affiliations, and email addresses. Open engagement strategies may include: forwarded email
messages; links in newsletters; Facebook posts; Twitter posts; and announcements in
traditional media. This proposal assumes the client will engage their partners in promoting the
survey as appropriate through organizational, social and traditional media.

Both surveys will be finalized in consultation with the client. The survey data will be analyzed
and draft reports will be prepared for client review. Follow‐up phone and email
communications will be conducted as needed to clarify critical data. If desired, we will facilitate
a “data party” for key stakeholders to engage with preliminary findings, contribute to
interpretations and recommendations. This is participatory sense‐making is typically done in a
two‐hour meeting. Should these be desired, the client will identify stakeholders, secure
meeting location, and provide refreshments.
Deliverables Include:
1. Summary report of Early Learning Provider Survey Findings
2. Facilitation of a data party where preliminary survey findings are shared with key
stakeholders who contribute insights for interpretations and recommendations
(optional);
3. Summary report of Early Learning Facilities Stakeholder Survey, with set of
recommendations;
4. Summary slides of both surveys;
5. Candidate list of providers and public and private entities willing to participate in further
study; and
6. Candidate list of potential sites for further investigation.
Tasks 5 and 6: Meetings and Administration and Team Coordination
• Proposed meetings include attendance by Joanne Brion at two meetings and Francesca
Wright at one meeting.
• This task provides budget for overall team coordination by BEI by Joanne Brion, overall
Project Manager for the effort.
Budget, Schedule and Insurance
Budget: The BEI Team can provide the above scope of services for an amount not to exceed
$74,970, Additional meetings could be billed on a time and materials basis, as needed.
Table 1 summarizes the budget by task, team member, and dollar amount and provides rough
estimates for the optional tasks. Direct costs and data purchases, report preparation, prizes for
survey respondents, delivery services would be $1,600. BEI is an independent contractor and
as such does not have employees; all team members would be subconsultants to BEI. Status
reports will be provided via email or personal communications with the staff project manager.
Schedule:
Phase 1: 8 months, depending on receipt of supply data.

November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 266
Phase 2: 8 months. Survey work can be undertaken during Phase 1, once a list of child care
providers and their emails are complied.
Insurance: BEI carries both general and professional liability insurance as do most team
members; BEI insurance would cover any member that does not have insurance, as needed.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
ACCEPT the report from the Employment and Human Services Department on Youth Services, including an update
on the Independent Living Skills Program.
FISCAL IMPACT:
No fiscal impact.
BACKGROUND:
An annual update of the Independent Living Schools Program administered by the Employment and Human Services
Department (EHSD) was first referred to the Family and Human Services Committee by the Board of Supervisors on
October 17, 2006. Since that time the Department has provided an annual update on Referral No. 93 - Independent
Living Skills Program on the services offered by the program and the outcomes for young adults.
On June 7, 2016, EHSD requested, and the Board approved, expanding Referral #93 – Independent Living Skills
Program to include additional youth services updates and retitling the referral to “Youth Services Report”, so that the
department can include reports on all youth services offered in the community through EHSD, including Workforce
Investment and Opportunity Act (WIOA) and CalWorks youth services.

SUBJECT: Independent Living Skills Program (ILSP)
RECOMMENDATION
Accept this report from the Employment and Human Services Department; and continue to
support the Children and Family Services Bureau and its efforts to serve foster youth in the ILSP
program.
BACKGROUND
The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 permanently authorized the Independent Living
Program (ILP) which offers training, services and programs to assist current and former foster
youth achieve self-sufficiency prior to and after leaving the foster care system. The Chafee
Foster Care Independence Program (CFCIP) Act of 1999 (Public Law 106-169), amended Section
477 of the Social Security Act providing more flexibility in the use of ILP funding (See 42 USC
677).
In California, County Welfare Departments have the flexibility to design services to meet a wide
range of individual needs and circumstances for current and former foster youth. Every
California County operates an ILP. Youth participation is voluntary. Overwhelming evidence
supports the fact that youth leaving foster care are in need of greater support as they transition
into adulthood. Foster youth nationwide are found to have an increased likelihood of early
parenting, instability in relationships, not graduating from high school, lower school
performance, increased health and mental health concerns, homelessness, incarceration,
substance abuse, and a higher rate of unemployment.
In September 2010, Governor Schwarzenegger signed into law Assembly Bill 12, the California
Fostering Connections to Success Act. AB12 took effect on January 1, 2012 and allows young
adults to be provided transitional support to age 21 and ensure that they are given the
necessary skills to survive on their own. A young adult must be in a high school or a GED
program, enrolled in a college or vocational program, employed at least 80 hours per month,
participating in a program designed to remove barriers to employment, or unable to
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 280
work/attend school because of a medical condition. The young adult must also live in an
approved placement and sign a mutual agreement with their case worker (SILP). With this
legislation, young adults will receive the support of the foster care system to age 21, ending an
era of neglect and providing young adults in foster care with the same common-sense
assistance provided to children from intact families.
PROGRESS TO DATE:
For the past twenty eight years, the Children and Family Services Bureau of the Employment
and Human Services Department has provided services through the Independent Living Skills
Program (ILSP). This program educates and supports youth in a wide variety of areas designed
to inspire a successful transition to adulthood, and empowers foster youth to become
responsible adults. In 2008, staff working in the program became Contra Costa County
employees and under the direction of a Program Coordinator and Assistant Coordinator, the
five program specialists continue to provide services to Contra Costa County foster youth, out
of county youth and probation youth, while embracing the CCC CFS ILSP Vision statement:
“Our vision is to move every youth from stagnation to motivation, from limitations to
possibilities; from dependency to self-sufficiency; from the past to the future.”
As a result of their successful approach and accomplishments, the Contra Costa County CFS
Independent Living Skills Program has received recognition throughout the State of California
and nation for its performance and youth services. The program continues to emphasize and
promote positive youth development to support young people in developing a sense of
competence, usefulness, belonging and empowerment. ILSP is funded by the federal Title IV-E
and state dollars.
ILSP offers a variety of skill building trainings and youth engagement activities to promote self-
sufficiency in foster youth. Development activities and programs include, but are not limited
to, employment preparation, vocational training support, education resources, financial literacy
and housing assistance. ILSP spotlights four core areas called the Four Pillars when providing
hands-on, experiential learning experiences. The Four Pillars consist of Education, Employment ,
Housing and Well Being. Workshops and events are provided in the East, West, and Central
parts of the county to attract more youth participation and to provide a shorter travel distance
for care providers and youth attending weekly workshops and events.
This past fiscal year, six hundred and ten (610) current and former foster youth were served
both individually and in group settings (i.e. workshops, classes, etc.) One hundred and fifty
three (153) of these youth are deemed “Non-Minor Dependents,” and have chosen to remain in
foster care under Assembly Bill 12.

ILSP PILLAR - HOUSING
Transitional housing for foster youth and emancipated young adults continues to be delivered
in Contra Costa County. Under the Transitional Housing Placement Program (THPP), two
providers serve the in-care foster youth age 16-18. Under the Transitional Housing Program
Plus (THP+), two providers serve emancipated youth, aged 18-24. The emergence of Assembly
Bill 12 produced an additional transitional housing opportunity called Transitional Housing
Program Plus Foster Care (THP+ FC). This program serves young adults, ages 18-21 that have
opted to remain in foster care as Non Minor Dependents under AB12. Housing continues to be
a significant challenge for young adults as they emancipate. The Housing Continuum that
Children and Family Services created has improved the numbers of young adults being served,
but now that AB 12 has been implemented, some of the existing providers are opting to serve
the Non Minor Dependent population exclusively, creating an increased need for housing to
serve those young adults opting to emancipate from foster care at age 18 or 19.
ILSP maintains its efforts to develop housing options in the community through collaborations
with community based organizations, faith based organizations and individual citizens whom
are willing to offer support (i.e. room for rent). The constant goal in this area is to develop
more permanent housing options for foster youth. For example, ILSP has established
connections with the Housing Authority and receive Section 8 lists when they become available
so that ILSP participants can apply. Our ILSP staff assists youth in applying for these
opportunities. Additionally, the contracted providers, such as the County’s Homeless Programs
and First Place for Youth, work diligently to develop more permanent housing options and
advocate for improved housing options for foster youth.
ILSP PILLAR- EMPLOYMENT
For several years the ILSP program has been partnering with the Workforce Development Board
of Contra Costa County and to deliver employment services to eligible foster youth through the
Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act. ILSP refers youth to participate in the Earn and
Learn Summer Employment Program. ILSP continues to cultivate working relationships with the
three contracted agencies providing services through WIOA. Our work includes referring 20% of
the foster care population to both the “In School and Out of School” programs throughout the
school year. The case managers for the contracted agencies present at ILSP staff meetings and
ILSP workshops in order to recruit youth and disseminate information for services available to
them. This collaboration has proven to be beneficial for our program and program participants,
our number of foster youth served with WIOA have been steadily increasing because of our
partnership.

The East County Youth in Transition Committee comprised of EMQ Families First, The Contra
Costa County Office of Education Foster Youth Services and The Contra Costa County Children
and Family Services' Independent Living Skills Program has been partnering with the Los
Medanos Community Healthcare District since 2011 to provide summer internships for youth
transitioning out of the foster care system. The Internship is designed to provide valuable
employment skills to the youth participants. Youth work in groups and learn public speaking
skills and they conduct research on health care issues identified by the Los Medanos
Community Healthcare District.

Apprenticeship Collaboration
ILSP is proud to now be collaborating with California's Department of Industrial
Relations/Division of Apprenticeships Standards. Andrew Lee, Apprenticeship Consultant from
the Division of Apprenticeship Standards, was appointed to act as a liaison between ILSP, Foster
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 283
Youth/Non-Minor Dependents and apprenticeship programs. Mr. Lee will be providing
workshops to inform foster youth about the opportunities available through the various
apprenticeship programs throughout California.
ILSP PILLAR- EDUCATION
It is well documented that foster youth are under-educated, lack basic educational skills and
often drop out of high school. ILSP supports and encourages foster youth to stay in school
through curriculum that motivates youth to strive towards graduation, pursue a higher
education and embrace learning as a lifelong process. Our collaboration with the County Office
of Education and Mt. Diablo Foster Youth Services allows us to partner in order to get resources
and support to youth in need. This past year, one hundred participants graduated from high
school and nine graduated from college. All of the graduates were honored at the 28th Annual
ILSP Recognition Event where fifty-four scholarships totaling over eighty thousand dollars, were
awarded.
ILSP provides the following trainings and events to foster youth with a concentration on Senior
Youth, to better prepare them for post-secondary education:
Scholarship Workshop
Financial Aid Workshop
Preparing Personal Statements
Navigating the Community College System
College Campus Tours
Understanding the FAFSA, Chafee Grant and Board of Governor’s Fee Waiver
Senior Night Workshop
College Luncheon
Understanding the UC and the CSU system
ILSP has established specialized relationships and collaborations with the following agencies
and colleges to provide a seamless transition upon emancipation from foster care:
Los Medanos Community College:
A “Student Connection Team” was developed to provide youth with a direct contact
person within each department on campus, giving them a person to connect with while
navigating the community college system. ILSP East County Life Skills trainings are held
on campus once per week, exposing youth to the college environment. Tours and
information about the various programs and areas of study at Los Medanos Community
College are included as a part of the Life Skills Curriculum. Presentations from
departments are held as often as possible. This past fiscal year LMC created a dedicated
newsletter entitled FY News – Los Medanos College Foster Youth Information &
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 284
Resources Newsletter and with the assistance of former foster youth attending LMC,
they named their support program BRAVO.
Diablo Valley Community College:
ILSP has been working closely with Diablo Valley College to increase the flow of ILSP
students from Central Contra Costa to community college. DVC has increased their
commitment to providing support for the specific needs of current and former foster
care youth and have developed a Foster Youth Program called START, which has
collaborated closely with ILSP. START provides hands on assistance with enrollment,
financial aid, referrals to other campus and off-campus resources as well as community
building activities for enrolled students. Staff from the START program come to ILSP life
skills classes to get to know the ILSP community and give information about DVC. DVC
also hosted an Education Summit for prospective students to come to DVC, get to know
the campus through peer-led tours, and meet some of the on-campus resource
providers in the financial aid department, Educational Opportunity Program (EOPS),
Department of Disabled Students (DSS) as well as hear from a panel of youth in or
emancipated from foster care who are currently studying at DVC. ILSP aims to break
down barriers for foster youth to access opportunities for higher education and
developing strong collaborations with nearby community colleges is a good way to do
so.
Job Corps – Treasure Island:
ILSP continues to maintain a relationship with Job Corps, one of the largest career
technical training and education programs in the nation for students ages 16 through
24. Job Corps provides hand on training in careers such as the Culinary Arts,
Construction, Healthcare, Security and Protective Services. Housing, meals and basic
medical care are afforded to our youth through the course of the program. ILSP is
offered site visits for youth who are interested in enrolling at Job Corps and priority
opportunities have also been made available to ILSP youth. Under AB12, this is an
approved Supervised Independent Living Placement (SILP) for our young adults.
Sierra College:
The Sierra College provides foster youth various programs, inclusive of an on-campus
housing option. Programs such as the TRiO program, Umoja, Puente, First Year
Experience, EOPS and CARE have proven to benefit ILSP youth. Our continued
relationship has nurtured a priority enrollment and registration into these programs.
Several times per year, ILSP takes appropriate youth to the campus for tours,
assessments and introductions of the services available to them. College Counselors are
on site during these presentations and financial relationships are in place to assist our
youth with securing housing/dorm deposits should they chose to attend Sierra College.
Under AB12, this is also an approved Supervised Independent Living Placement (SILP) for
our youth.
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 285
ILSP has developed relationships with the following agencies and organizations to better serve
our foster youth and to support programs and events:
The Assistance League of Diablo Valley:
ILSP has collaborated with the Assistance League of Diablo Valley to develop a Senior
Sponsorship Program as well as various scholarships for our youth.
The Senior Sponsorship Program is designed to financially assist graduating seniors with
the expenses for typical events during their Senior Year in High School. The program
funds such things as senior pictures, yearbooks, prom tickets, cap/gown expenses,
graduation announcements, as well as laptop/tablet purchases. This past year, 25 ILSP
participants were sponsored $400.00 each totaling $10,00.00. In addition, the
Assistance League provides each emancipating youth with an “On Your Way” Duffle bag
filled with various household products and basic necessities to assist them as they
progress into adulthood.
Volunteer Emergency Services Team In Action, Inc. (VESTIA):
VESTIA has served as a fiduciary agent for ILSP donations. In addition, this past year, the
VESTIA Board sponsored a part of the expenses for the 28th Annual Recognition Event
held to honor graduating seniors. The VESTIA scholarship committee awarded eighteen
(18) scholarships totaling $17,000.00 that evening. We receive items for our onsite Food
Pantry, donated clothing for our onsite clothes closet and school supplies for our youth
as often as needed.
The Orinda Woman’s Club:
The Orinda Woman’s Club has provided scholarships annually to our graduating seniors.
This past year, 2 youth benefited from a total of $2,000.00 in scholarships towards their
college education.
Honorable Judge Lois Haight Foster Youth Foundation:
In 2001, Honorable Judge Lois Haight established a foundation specifically to serve our
population of youth and has since provided hundreds of scholarships to our youth in
excess of $416,000.00. This past June, she presented twenty (20) scholarships totaling
$20,000.00 to seniors of the class of 2016.
The Wilhelmina Johnson ILSP Youth Award:
Wilhelmina Johnson was an avid youth advocate, social worker and program analyst
who dedicated 24 years to Contra Costa County youth and was instrumental in the
establishment of Contra Costa County’s Independent Living Skills Program. She believed
that every youth deserved a chance regardless of their background. ILSP honors youth
who have demonstrated the ability to overcome significant barriers and achieve d
personal growth with this scholarship each year.
Foster A Dream:
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 286
ILSP collaborates with Foster A Dream to host the annual Holiday Network Event as part
of the Well-Being Pillar. In addition, Foster a Dream has provided our youth with
backpacks containing school supplies during our Fall Retreat Kick-off Event. Foster A
Dream also provides scholarships to graduating seniors each year.
Free Senior Portraits by Suzy Todd Photography:
Suzy Todd approached ILSP and offered her professional services to ILSP seniors. She
wanted to give back and does so by providing seniors with free senior portrait packages
valued at $300 each.
The Secret Elves:
During the Holiday season, ILSP hosts a Holiday Social event for our youth to provide
them with donated gifts from the Secret Elves. The Secret Elves have provided gifts that
teens are able to enjoy during the holiday season.
Friends of ILSP:
“Friends of ILSP” is an informal group of ten members of the Philanthropic and
Educational Organization that will provide scholarships and financial assistance to ILSP
graduates.
This organization is providing scholarship monies to upcoming or former graduates of
the Independent Living Skills Program that wish to or are pursuing higher education or
certification from a trade school. Applications are accepted throughout the school year
and contact by this organization is ongoing. They provide birthday and holiday cards and
frequent contact throughout the year to let our young adults know that they are cared
for.
ILSP WELL-BEING
Youth in foster care often do not experience childhood in the way most children do who live
with their families of origin. They have suffered child abuse and neglect, been removed from
their families and many older youth spend the remainder of their childhood moving from home
to home. The foster care system is designed to fund board and care and basic needs, and this is
underfunded. Youth in foster care miss out on participating in sports, arts, birthday parties,
spending the night at friend’s homes, and the like. They are in turn exposed to the sub -culture
of foster care. They learn the survival skills needed to cope with placement changes, rejection
from resource parents, and the grief of not being with their families. Instead of developing
positive social skills, for instance, some are learning to cope with living in a group setting with
other foster youth who are struggling with their own issues. ILSP provides activities and
supportive services to help encourage positive social development and exposure to typical child
hood activities. Through a variety of excursions such as outings to baseball and football games,
field trips to beaches, bike riding, ski trips and water rafting, foster youth are able to experience
fun activities that a typical teenager might, but are also mentored in developing positive social
skills and are further engaged in the ILS program. The State of California Department of Social
Services has emphasized the importance of supporting the well being of foster care and ILSP is
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 287
the perfect mechanism to provide this intervention. The ILSP staff is trained in an approach
called Positive Youth Development. This approach enables them to engage youth and motivate
them to strive to improve their lives and grow into happy and healthy adults.
ILSP - AFTERCARE
Each year, 100-150 foster youth are eligible to age out of foster care at age 18 or 19 years old.
If they choose to emancipate out of foster care, then at that point, they are on their own to
support themselves. Some foster youth are fortunate to remain with their resource parents or
relatives; other youth are able to participate in a Transitional Housing Program, but most of
them will struggle once they leave the system. The funds provide supportive services to
emancipated foster youth up to age 21 years old. The needs of emancipated youth are severe.
They often call in crisis, homeless and in need of basic necessities such as transportation, food
and shelter. The Aftercare program provides emancipated foster youth as well as Non Minor
Dependent young adults living under AB12 regulations supportive housing, employment,
educational, and crisis services.
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
ILSP promotes the development of leadership in foster youth. Whenever possible,
emancipated foster youth are invited to share their experiences with ILSP youth and to
facilitate workshops or trainings. In addition, ILSP promotes participation and support of the
Contra Costa County California Youth Connection (CYC) chapter. CYC is a statewide advocacy
organization specifically geared towards developing leadership in and advocacy skills to engage
foster youth with policy makers to improve the foster care system. CYC is mainly responsible
for all of the positive legislative changes impacting the child welfare system. Additionally, each
year ILSP train’s foster youth to participate in a leadership group called the Speaker’s Bureau.
These youth are trained in public speaking and work with ILSP to speak to community groups,
advocate for legislation at the State Capitol and be the Youth voice in the child welfare system.
This past year, our local chapter of CYC received the Local Issue Award for bringing healthy
eating awareness to our local group homes and for hosting the Iron Chef Challenge, which
paired our participants with care providers who together, prepared a nutritious meal.
SUMMARY/CONCLUSION
Youth who emancipate from foster care are expected to become self-sufficient at age 18 or 19
years old. This entails the ability to maintain stable housing, maintain employment, and
maintain one’s physical health. Research on the outcomes of emancipated foster youth
indicates that this task is difficult for this population. Rates of homelessness for emancipated
foster youth have been found to be as high as 42% and housing moves are generally related to
poverty and lack of stable family relationships. Foster youth also have high rates of
incarceration, especially when they have experienced multiple placements and time in the
foster care system. Some of the current information states that 72% of prisoners were once in
foster care.
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 288
ILS programs have been implemented by Child Welfare programs in order to help prevent these
negative outcomes. The Contra Costa County CFS ILSP has upwards of 800 eligible youth each
year and endeavors to provide resources in collaboration with the foster care system. Much of
the work of the ILSP Coordinators and staff is spent cultivating collaborative partnerships with
community based organizations and other foster youth serving groups. Their expertise in
engaging youth and motivating them to stay in school, graduate, and obtain life sustaining
employment is critical. This work was acknowledged by the 2014-2015 Contra Costa County
Grand Jury, in report 1509, entitled, “The Benefits of the California Connections to Success Act
in Contra Costa County.” With the Board’s continuing support and commitment to the ILS
program, foster youth will continue to benefit from quality, skill building workshops and events,
acquire better social skill development and improve transitions into adulthood.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Resolution No. 2016/619 granting a pipeline franchise to Equilon Enterprises LLC, d/b/a Shell Oil Products
US ("Equilon"), pursuant to the terms and conditions of County Ordinance No. 2013-19 and County Resolution No.
2013/305 for pipelines located in the unincorporated area of the County near Bay Point and Martinez, as
recommended by the Public Works Director.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The pipeline franchise will generate approximately $13,300.00 per year commencing with calendar year 2016. The
annual franchise payment will be calculated at the rate of $1.77 per cubic foot of pipeline within the County
right-of-way. The number of cubic feet of pipeline subject to the franchise fee rate will be calculated by taking the
area of the inside diameter of the pipeline plus 1” and multiplying it by the length of the pipeline within the County
right-of-way. The annual franchise fee rate of $1.77 per cubic foot will be increased annually by the change in the
Consumer Price Index, all Urban Consumers for the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose Area (1982-84 = 100), with
December 2012 (239.53) as the base CPI month.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Auditor-Controller, or his designee, to pay $35,962.16 to Sodexo, LLC for
management and oversight of the Food and Nutrition Unit at Contra Costa Regional Health Center (CCRMC), for the
period November 1, 2015 through February 29, 2016.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funding is included in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I budget.
BACKGROUND:
Sodexo America, LLC provides management and oversight of the Food and Nutrition Unit at CCRMC. Due to the
emergent closure of the cafeteria at CCRMC, the Health Services Department requested an Operations Manager to
support the needs at the Nutritional Services Unit. Due to an administrative oversight, the contract was not modified
to add the operations manager support services prior to the expiration of the Contract.
Sodexo America, LLC continued to provide additional management and oversight of the Nutritional Services Unit
through the closure of the cafeteria. Hospital Administration has therefore determined that Sodexo America, LLC is
entitled to payment for the reasonable value of their services under the equitable relief theory of quantum meruit.
That theory provides that where a person has been asked to provide services without a valid contract, and the
provider does so to the benefit of the recipient, the provider is entitled to recover the reasonable value of those
services.

RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the substantial amendment to the County’s FY 2016/17 Community Development
Block Grant (CDBG) Program Action Plan, to increase the CDBG project award to the Community Housing
Development Corporation of North Richmond by $9,700 to a new project award total of $73,900 to complete the
Infrastructure/Public Facilities (IPF) project located at 515 Silver Avenue in Richmond, as recommended by the
Finance Committee.
FISCAL IMPACT:
CDBG funds are provided to the County on a formula allocation basis through the U.S. Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD). Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance #14.218. There is no fiscal impact to the
County General Fund, as the allocation is from the federal CDBG program funds.
BACKGROUND:
On May 10, 2016, the Board of Supervisors approved the Contra Costa County Action Plan for FY 2016/17 CDBG
funds. Originally, Community Housing Development Corporation of North Richmond (CHDC) was awarded
$64,200 in CDBG funds under the Infrastructure/Public Facilities (IPF) category to improve the Neighborhood House
Multicultural Senior and Family Center (Center) located at 515 Silver Avenue in North Richmond. The proposed
improvements include replacing the roof, replacing the heating ventilation and air conditioning unit, and
repairs/upgrades to the men’s and women’s bathrooms. The original estimate provided in CHDC’s application was
too low and the project will require $9,700 in additional funds to complete the project. CHDC is requesting $9,700 in

additional CDBG funds to complete the full scope of the intended improvements to the Center. If additional funds are
allocated, the total amount awarded for this project would be increased to $73,900.
The $9,700 in CDBG funds are available from CDBG program income (loan repayments) and may be awarded for
this project.
Finance Committee Meeting: The Finance Committee met on October 13, 2016, and recommended to allocate an
additional $9,700 in CDBG funds to CHDC in order to complete the improvements at the Center.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the Substantial Amendment for the additional CDBG funds is not approved, the project would be delayed or
possibly not completed, which would affect the effectiveness and efficiency of the Center's services and operations.

Subject:Replacement of Modular Units Project, 1650 Cavallo Road, Antioch and Related CEQA Actions (WH135B)
November 8, 2016 Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors 341
BACKGROUND:
The new modular office building will replace the existing deteriorated and mold-infested modular office buildings,
which have now been removed from the site. Staff has been moved into a temporary leased facility in Antioch.
Purchase of the modular office building through the use of the Los Lomitas School District’s bid will expedite the
building fabrication and installation process. Site work will be provided under a separate contract and will be
completed while the modular office building is being fabricated.
On November 10, 2015, the Board of Supervisors awarded a job order contract (JOC) for repair, remodeling, and
other repetitive work to be performed pursuant to the Construction Task Catalog to each of Sea Pac Engineering,
Inc., John F. Otto, Inc., and Mark Scott Construction, each in the amount of $2,000,000. On September 20, 2016,
the Board approved a change order to increase the contract amount to $4,500,000 for both John F. Otto, Inc., and
Mark Scott Construction. This project is expected to be performed by one of the three JOC contractors. A task
order catalogue has been prepared for the JOC Contractor to perform the Project site work and building hook-ups.
In the event that it is not performed by a JOC contractor, the Public Works Department will go to the Board for
approval of plans and specifications and authorization to advertise and solicit bids.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The existing building does not have the capacity for the On the Job Training (OJT) program. The OJT program
trains staff to perform operations located in the 1650 Cavallo building. Having trainees adjacent to their future
positions is most effective and will avoid long term lease expenses.
