Subject:2011/12 Calif. Dept. of Educ. General Childcare & Development revenue contract, amendment #1
BACKGROUND:
California Department of Education notified the Department on June 29, 2011 of the
2011/12 funding allocation for general childcare and development programs. Approval of
this agreement will allow continued provision of vital childcare services to Contra Costa
County children and families. The county receives funds from the California Department of
Education to provide state preschool general childcare services to program eligible County
residents. The program is operated by the Community Services Bureau of the Employment
& Human Services Department.
The State routinely amends these agreements to add funds and/or to update funding terms
and conditions. This amendment accepts additional funding from the State and amends the
funding terms and conditions to include an expanded definition of childcare and to increase
the child's eligibility age for children with special needs (from age 11 years to 13 years).
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If not approved, County will not receive funding to operate this childcare program.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
The Community Services Bureau of the Employment & Human Services Department’s
Child Development 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.
