Subject:CORRECT 2009-10 WCCUSD Head Start Wraparound Services, Amendment 1
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
The Agreement was partially funded by the County's annual allocation of Head Start funding, which the Board
approved receipt of from Administration for Children and Families (ACF) on September 16, 2008 for FY 2009. The
Department routinely contracts a portion of the funds received to local agencies for wider distribution of services to
program-eligible families.
The Department also applied for additional Head Start funding available through the Office of Head Start as part of
the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), signed by the President on February 17, 2009. The
Department determined that a portion of these funds, if awarded, would also be allocated to WCCUSD. The
Department decided to seek approval from the Board to execute the Interagency Agreement prior to notification of
receipt of ARRA funding.
Subsequently, the Community Services Bureau further determined that additional childcare slots should be assigned
to WCCUSD. The board order (Item C. 37) on November 3, 2009 sought approval of additional slots within the
routine annual Head Start funding; notification of the ARRA funding was still pending. The Department then
received notification that its ARRA Head Start Wraparound Services application was not selected for funding.
At this time, the ARRA funding ($147,792 / CFDA 93.708) will be removed from the Interagency Agreement.
Given the prior addition of $17,824 of non-ARRA Head Start funding, a net decrease of $129,968 will be realized.
The new total contract payment limit is $161,423.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
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.
