ATTESTED: January 8, 2013 David Twa, County Administrator and Clerk of the Board of Supervisors By: Carrie Del Bonta, Deputy cc: Cassandra Youngblood, Joann Denardo, Erik Brown C. 74 To:Board of Supervisors From:Kathy Gallagher Date:January 8, 2013 Contra Costa County Subject:2013 Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) revenue contract BACKGROUND: The Department received notification of funding from California Department of Community Services and Development on December 19, 2012. 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 2013 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.
