BACKGROUND:
The Administration of Children and Families (ACF), Office of Head Start awarded an Early Head Start Child
Care Partnership Grant to the Community Services Bureau (CSB) of Employment and Human Services
Department. The grant period is 1/1/2015 - 6/30/2019 with an annual award of $1,062,176. The grant will allow
CSB to implement new child care partnerships to serve 72 infants and toddlers and their families throughout
Contra Costa County. The Bureau will partner with First Baptist Head Start and the Contra Costa Child Care
Council (CCC) to provide full-day, full-year comprehensive services to low-income children ages 0-3 years old
and their families in a center-based or family child care program. Community Services Bureau will be responsible
for the administration of the grant, the delivery of comprehensive services to the children and their families,
monitoring of the providers to ensure compliance with the Early Head Start and California State Licensing
Regulations, and program and fiscal audits requested by ACF. In addition to providing administrative and
technical assistance, CSB will be responsible for reporting outcomes and expenditures to the Administration for
Children and Families.To ensure the administration of the grant, CSB will need one Assistant Director-Project
who will be responsible for ensuring compliance with Licensing and State regulations and Early Head Start
education requirements; one Comprehensive Services Manager-Project who will be responsible for the delivery
of comprehensive services, and providing resources and support; one Intermediate Clerk-Project who will provide
clerical support to both the Assistant Director and the Comprehensive Services Manager; and one Accounting
Technician who will provide fiscal support. All these positions are budgeted in the approved Partnership Grant
budget.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to add the requested four positions to CSB may result in inadequate and insufficient staffing of the new
Early Head Start Child Care Partnership Grant awarded to the Community Services Bureau and may negatively
impact the administration of the Partnership Grant.This in turn may result in lost funding for CSB and for the
County.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Community Services Bureau supports all five outcomes establish by the Children’s Report Card: (1) Children
Ready for and Succeeding in School; (2) Children and Youth Healthy and Preparing for Productive Adulthood;
(3) Families that are Economically Self Sufficient; (4) Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing; and (5)
Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families.
