BACKGROUND:
I
As part of the FY 1985 federal appropriations bill for the Head Start program, a
3.5% cost of living allocation was approved and established to enable Head Start grantees
to provide additional training services for program staff and parents. As noted above,
the cost of living allocation is actually divided into two components, training and tech-
nical assistance and cost of living. The� County must apply for these funds by March 15,
1985. It is anticipated that funds will not be received until May of this year. The
non-federal share for the cost of living allocation will be from delegate agency sources.
The training and technical assistant monies do not require matching funds.
