Subject:2014-15 Antioch Kids' Clubs Inc. childcare services contract amendment #1
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Department contracts with a number of community-based organizations. The board approved the 2014-15 contract on
June 24, 2014.
This board order seeks approval to amend the contract in two ways. The first action is to pass through the increased
daily rate provided by the State Department of Education to the County via the State Preschool contracts. The daily
rate has been increased from $19.53 to $20.50 per Child Day of Enrollment for State Preschool and from $29.41 to
$30.88 for General Childcare and Development. The second action is to decrease the number of slots for the State
Preschool Part-Day program effective December 1, 2014. The Contractor had its direct contract with the California
Department of Education increased; due to limited capacity, the Contractor elected to reduce the number of slots
allocated to County-funded childcare programs from 192 to 48 slots, effective December 1, 2014.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If not approved, County will be unable to meet childcare needs in this geographic area and fulfill State Preschool
program goals.
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.
