Subject:2013 Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) revenue contract, Amendment 2
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
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. The initial award for the 2013 program year was a
partial allocation based on the partial grant award received by the State from the federal government for CSBG.
Additional funding was accepted by the Board on March 12, 2013. This contract amendment is to add funding to the
contract to bring the County to its full allocation for the 2013 program year.
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.
