BACKGROUND:
The Community Service Bureau (CSB) operates childcare centers receiving state and federal funding. The
regulations guiding the services and operation of these centers requires that each center is staffed with qualified
teaching staff. Currently CSB has several Teachers and Associate Teachers on long term leave, and has had to
rely on county temps to maintain adequate and consistent coverage in the child care centers. Community Services
Bureau request to add 4 Teacher –Project and 3 Associate Teacher-Project positions will allow the Bureau to hire
permanent staff and use them as permanent Floaters, thus there will be more flexibility and stability in covering
the vacancies created by employees on long term leave.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to enact these changes will compromise the Bureau’s ability to meet staffing needs and ensure that the
centers meet Licensing, State and Federal requirements. This may result in violations, and loss of funding. CSB is
preparing for a triennial Federal Review in the late Fall of 2014 – beginning of 2015, thus adding adequate
staffing to the program is crucial for the preparation and success of the Review.
