Subject:2012 Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) revenue contract
BACKGROUND:
The Department received notification of funding from California Department of Community
Services and Development on December 12, 2011. As the County's Community Action
Agency, the Department's Community Services Bureau regularly receives Community
Services Block Grant (CSBG) funding to operate self-sufficiency programs under the
advisement of the County's Economic Opportunity Council (EOC). The funding amount is
based on the County’s low-income population which meets federal poverty guidelines. This
initial award for the 2012 program year is a partial allocation based on the partial grant
award received by the State from the federal government for CSBG. Upon resolution of the
federal grant award, the remaining Contra Costa County portion of the CSBG allocation will
be forwarded.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If not approved, the Department will be hampered in its ability to meet the needs of the
community and to establish partnerships with community based agencies and public
organizations.
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.
