BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
the Department's early childhood education centers. If hired, the County will pay $5 of each trainee's $9/hour wage
while CCEB will pay $4 of each trainee's $9/hour wage. The supervised fieldwork experience for students is
considered to be an integral part of both educational and professional preparation. The Employment & Human
Services Department can provide the requisite field education, while at the same time, benefitting from the students’
services to children enrolled in the early childhood education centers.
Approval of this agreement will allow supervised fieldwork instruction experience for the agency's students at
County early childhood education centers through July 31, 2013.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, the students will not receive training or placement at County early childhood
education centers.
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.
