Subject:2012/13 Fairgrounds Center Childcare Services Operation
BACKGROUND:
On September 25, 2007 the Board approved the award of the operation of childcare services at the County-owned
facility, Fairgrounds Children’s Center, as a result of a Request for Proposal (RFP). First Baptist Church of Pittsburg
was the successful respondent to the RFP. The first nine (9) months of the contract was approved by the Board on the
above date, and the contract has been renewed annually since. This board order renews the contract for the 2012/13
program year.
Contra Costa County receives funds from the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) to provide Head Start
program services to program eligible County residents. County also receives funds from the California Department of
Education (CDE) Child Development program for State Preschool and General Childcare and Development program
services. The State requires an indemnification clause with County subcontractors wherein the subcontractor holds
harmless the State and its officers for any losses.
Approval of this board order allows the continued provision of the following services at Fairgrounds Children’s
Center, for the period July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2013.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If not approved, County will not be able to more widely distribute childcare availability through partnership with
community based agencies.
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.
