of$2,290,814.
II1. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND-
On June 3, 1997, the Board of Supervisors authorized the submission of a grant
application for competitive bid to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services,
ACF, for 1998 Expansion Grant funds in the amount of$2,522,034 for the Contra Costa
County Head Start Program. On September 16, 1997, the Board authorized the
submission of the 1998 Head Start Basic Grant application requesting renewal of
program funding in the amount of$6,641,223 to continue to provide Head Start services
to 1,163 children and their families.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, ACF, is now requiring that the
1998 Expansion funds be incorporated into the total budget for the 1998 Head Start
Basic Grant. Approval of this budget amendment will satisfy the ACF requirement.
Contra Costa County Head Start will then be eligible to receive funding for the 1998
program year.
