ATTESTED: July 27, 2010 David J. Twa, County Administrator and Clerk of the Board of Supervisors By: KATHERINE SINCLAIR, Deputy cc: Earl Maciel C. 43 To:Board of Supervisors From:Joe Valentine, Employment & Human Services Director Date:July 27, 2010 Contra Costa County Subject:Contract with U.C. Davis for Staff Training FISCAL IMPACT: $131,744: 100% California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKs) State and Federal Funding (CFDA 93.558.012) BACKGROUND: Training provided by the University of California (UC) Davis to Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD) meets State regulations that allow public institutions of higher education to provide in-kind match funding equal to the California Welfare Department's share of costs, resulting in no expense to the County, and a higher skilled, more informed staff. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: Staff development training supports three Contra Costa County community outcomes: "Families that are Economically Self-Sufficient"; “Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing”; and "Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families.” Through this training, case managers will be better able to connect CalWORKs participants with job training and opportunities; child welfare can improve supportive intervention and prevention services for families at risk of child abuse; and the County’s adult population will benefit from enhanced responsiveness of adult services workers.
