Subject:2009-10 California Department of Education General Childcare & Development Amendment #3
BACKGROUND:
The Board approved this funding agreement on June 23, 2009. There was a subsequent
amendment, approved by the Board on October 20, 2009, to reduce the minimum days of
operation from 251 to 245 days. The revision was due to six mandatory furlough days
which all Contra Costa County departments are mandated to observe during FY 2009-10. A
second amendment was approved by the Board on January 19, 2010 to incorporate
State-amended 2009-10 Funding Terms & Conditions to include new information regarding
program eligibility requirements, admissions policies, and fee schedule.
This proposed amendment adds $500,000 to the County's General Childcare and
Development program by subtracting the same amount from the County's California State
Preschool Program revenue contract. The Department requested this fund transfer based on
enrollment trends between the two programs. This is the first year in which the State
consolidated several funding streams into these two entities; adjustments to transfer funds
between the two revenue streams are allowable during this transition period. The board
order to decrease the payment limit for the California State Preschool program revenue
contract is also scheduled for the March 23, 2010 Board meeting.
Approval of this agreement will allow continued provision of vital childcare services to
Contra Costa County children and families.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
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.
