DEPARTMENT C )sta
DATE'. April 28, 1987 COU*
SUBJECT: Authorization to Submit Application for Head Start Cost of Living
and Program Improvement Funds
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION
AUTHORIZE Executive Director, Community Services Department, to
execute 1987 Head Start Cost of Living and Program Improvement
application in the amount of $153,058 (Federal) and $38,265 (non-
Federal) funds.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
NO FINANCIAL IMPACT to County budget other than the addition of
Federal funds which have been considered in department' s FY 1987
budget. Non-Federal share will be provided by current Head Start
delegate agencies and local providers. There will be no additional
cost to the County.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDED ACTION
In the Federal FY 1987 appropriations funds were allocated to
provide Head Start programs cost of living allowances (approximately
40) ; to provide funds, on a competitive basis, for lengthening the
Program Year; and additional funds to enable programs to address
health and safety issues and comply with licensing standards. The
Community Services Department and the Head . Start Delegates have
prepared applications which meet the Federal Criteria and which will
strengthen the local Head Start program.
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
The Head Start program will be denied the opportunity to apply for
additional funding and will allow neither cost of living awards to
employees nor ability to address necessary program issues.
