FROM: Joan V. Sparks, Director s
Community Services Department o Costa
County
DATE: December 20, 1994 °s,q.covKC'�
SUBJECT: Accept 1995 Head Start Basic Grant Award
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION(S):
ACCEPT the 1995 Head Start Basic Grant from the Administration for Children and Families (ACF)
in the amount of $5,084,962 for provision of Head Start services to 1,123 children for the period of
January 1, 1995 through December 31, 1995.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The maximum amount of Federal funds requested in the grant application is an amount not to
exceed $6,000,000. It is anticipated that the County will be notified of funding approval by ACF in
January of 1995. Funding for January 1, 1995 through June 30, 1995 will be added via
Appropriation Adjustment to the Department's 1994-95 budget. Funding for July 1, 1995 through
December 31, 1995 will be included in the Department's proposed 1995-96 budget.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
A decision not to approve would result in the loss of needed Head Start services to the children and
families of this County.
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
Each year the County is required to submit a grant application to the Administration for Children and
Families in order to receive funding for Head Start services. The 1995 grant application was
submitted to ACF on October 11, 1994.
