SUBJ-. NONCUSTODIAL PARENT PROJECT POSITIONS
HELP! We cannot effectively operate this 3-year grant program without the stability of
permanent positions. The attached update describes this project in some detail and
explains the numerous connections and impacts it will have on the PICs, DA, training
providers, support services agencies and the leveraging of different funding. Project
assignments will result in significant turnover that will disable our ability to run this State
demonstration project.
The classifications that are needed for NCP are ones that are in high demand. As there is
so much opportunity for persons to accept permanent positions with the Department(or
other departments in the case of Admin. Analysts and Clerks), there is little reason to
accept (or stay in) project slots. Our annual turnover stats, reveal the following
opportunity for persons to be hired on a permanent basis.
Program Analyst 33%
Admin. Analyst no experience with this class
Eligibility Supervisor 20%
SSPA 22%
Clerk 42%
Compounding the problem will be an additional draw to permanent positions caused by
the CalWORKs.promotions, reassignments, settling in and turnover that will occur over
this next year. NCP will have little chance to keep its project staff.
Finally, this is a State demonstration project which has an evaluation component built in.
If we have any hope of proving the value of NCP services and obtaining funds after the
three year grant, we'll need the higher level of stability that permanent positions in these
classes would provide.
Gen 9c (New 3/86)
TO: Phil Batchelor April 17, 1998
FROM: John B. Cullen Page 2
In addressing your concern on our ability to reduce staff when project funding ends, I
would propose that our annual report to the Board on NCP status include a section on
staffing which in the final year of the grant would include specific plans to transfer staff
into other SSD positions made available through attrition/tumover, and thus eliminate
these permanent positions when/if NCP expires.
Please approve P300 #17732 as submitted.

L. Madden
SUBJ: BOARD AGENDA ITEM: P-300 REQUEST TO ADD AND FILL STAFF FOR THE NON-
CUSTODIAL PARENT EMPLOYMENT AND TRAINING DEMONSTRATION PROJECT
I . REQUESTED ACTION
Add and fill one Social Service Program analyst position, one
Administrative Analyst I position, one Eligibility Work Supervisor
position, five Social Service Program Assistants, and one Clerk
Experienced Level position for the Non-Custodial Parent Employment and
Training Demonstration Project.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT

Employment and Training Demonstration Project. The balance of the
funding will come initially from the department's budget against the
CalWORKs block grant, with other offset funding anticipated from future
funded initiatives. There will be a one time (non-salary) cost of
$69, 750 for 9 computers, printers, desks, bookcases and ergonomic chairs
that is an included item in the grant. Salary and fringe costs are
indicated below:
Program Analyst:
$79, 007 annualized cost

III. BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR REQUEST
The Department has been awarded a grant in excess of $3 million to be
utilized for the non-Custodial Parent Employment and 'Training Project.
It is anticipated that this grant will be accepted by the Board at its
April 27, 1998 meeting. As part of the requirements under that project,
the above positions are being requested.
The SS Program Analyst would serve as the Program Coordinator for the
County Opportunities and Obligations Program ("CO-OP") , a required
position under the grant. The CO-OP Program will utilize and inter-
agency model to coordinate services in employment and training for non-
custodial parents of CalWORKs children. The Administrative analyst will
be assigned as the Research Coordinator for the !CO-OP, a position
required by terms of the grant, responsible for working with State
staff, the independent contractor and internal fiscal staff concerning
fiscal procedures, data collection, evaluation, and other administrative
duties assisting the CO-OP program manager. It is the Department's
intent to initially fill these two positions, with the other requested
positions to be filled later after the project commences. The two
positions would also fulfill anticipated programmatic and
administrative/fiscal duties connected with other inter-agency
anticipated initiatives related to CalWORKs.
Duties for the EW Supervisor I, 5 SS Program Assistant' s (Employment
Specialists) and Clerk Experienced Level relate to the establishment and
operation of a unit of staff to work with non-custodial clients,
offering grant funded employment training and supportive services
designed to increase the earning of non-custodial parents, increase the
frequency of child support collections and increase the quality of the
relationship between non-custodial parents and theirchildren, thereby
reducing poverty and enhancing the well-being of children.
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION
If the positions are not approved the Department would be unable to
fulfill its obligations to implement the awarded Non-Custodial Parent
Employment and Training Demonstration Project.

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Social Service Director, or designee, to:
1. ACCEPT competitive state grant funds as awarded under AB 1542 of
approximately $3,111,083 over the 36 months of the Non-CustodialParent
Employment and Demonstration Project. The funds expected for Year 1 are
approximately $855,455.

Program,or CO-OP, is scheduled to begin.on July 1, 1998. The purpose of this memo is to outline some basic
information about CO-OP and to keep you advised of progress toward implementation of the Project.
$ackr,gu
As part of state welfare reform legislation(AB 1542 and related bills)passed by the Legislature and signed by
the Governor in 1997, several demonstration projects were authorized and funds appropriated. Among these
was a three-yeardemonstration project to provide employment and training services to the unemployed,
noncustodial parents('MCPs)whose children receive CaiWORKs benefits. This demonstration is to determine
whether the provision of these services, along with supportive services such as parenting, peer support,
substance abuse treatment and family mediation services will increase the amount and consistency of child
support payments,reduce public assistance payments to these children and increase the involvement and quality
of involvement of noncustodial parents in their children's lives.
As stated by the California Department of Social Services in the All-County Letter sent October 1, 1997 to
announce the Project,there has been a growing concern over the number of children receiving public assistance
and the failure of many noncustodial parents to meet the financial and emotional needs of their children. In
California in SFY 95/96,over$1 billion ofthe S1.6 billion owed by MCPs for current child support collections
went unpaid. 58% of the NCPs whose children received AFDC paid nothing, many of them citing
unemployment as the reason for nonpayment.
One of the guiding principles of the new welfare system is to make both custodial parents and noncustodial
parents mutually responsible for the financial support and nurturing of their children. This project is designed
both to decrease poverty and improve the well-being of children whose parent(s) participate in the project.
'"CO-OP",the County Opportunities and Obligations Program,is the name for the Contra Costa
County Non-Custodial Parent ("NCP") Employment and Training Demonstration Project.

The State:legislature has appropriated$5,00103,00 per year y �
NCP Remonstration Project Proposal, which was approved by the CDSS in February, 1998, contained an
estimate ofcosts for the three years of 2,393,162 in state finds, $455,800 local funds and an unknown amount
in PICS employment and training fiords. Counties who were selected for the project were informed that,while
expected to absorb start-up costs for the Project,they could submit revised budgets which CDSS will use to
seek additional funding to cover additional casts identified. On 3/31/98, the County SST}submitted a revised
budge that seeks$3,111,0193 in state funds,estimates$720,005 in local funds(including$250,000 over three
years in PIC funds for truck driver training) and an unknown additional amount in,PICs employment and
training funds.
State funds include:
# Personnelcosts for the Program Coordinator, Research Coordinator, Case Managers and Clerical
support and DAFS personnel and indirect costs;
# Costs related to the project for training,technical assistance and travel;
# computer programming and equipment for case management, data collection and tracking;
# Office supplies and printing;
# Pre-employment services, community college training, specialized vocational training, truck driver
training, employment retention fund;
# Family counseling and parenting.
Local funds include:
# CalWORKs funding for costs related to the Project not covered by state funding, including a Case
Manager Supervisor, county share of employee benefits and some indirect costs;
# Existing funding for Mediation services through the Family Court Services Department;
# Shares of training and support services;
# An unknown amount of PICS employment and training funds, including but not limited to $250,000
over three years for truck driver training.
EICs Employment and_Training Funds:
The target population for the Project intersects with a target population in the federal Welfare-to-Work(WtW)
funds which were authorized in the Balanced Budget Act of 1997. Most of funds;are distributed by the
Department of Labor, through the state, to local Private Industry Councils(some funds are retained at the
federal level for performance bonuses and competitive grants;a small amount is retained at the state level for
administrative costs and special projects. California submitted a state plan for these funds in March, 1998 and
the first allocations are expected by June, 1998. These funds include:
# Formula Grant allocations. 85%of Formula Grant funds will be distributed'directly to PICS. The
Contra Costa County Private Industry Council is vq*cted to receive about$1,10?0,000 in Spring, 1998
and about IOOO,OOO in Federal Fiscal Year('FF"Y)98/99. City of Richmond PIC'is expected to receive
about $650,000 in Spring, 1998 and about$600,000 in IFFY 98/99.
# State matching funds. The state must provide a one-third match. The$95,000,000 in state matching
funds has been included in the Governor's proposed SFY 98/99 budget to be allocated to County
SSDs.

! Governor's Formula fiends. 150/o of Formula Grant alto I vee for
administrative casts and special projects. Some of these a offered as
competitive grants for innovative and specialized services.
t Competitive Grant funds. Two allocations of federal competitive grant funding,for innovative and
specialized services, are authorized. Each of the County's PICS submitted a proposal for the first
round of this funding, which closed in March, 1998. Another round of requests for proposals is
expected later in 1998.
States and localities have three years from the date the state receives funds to expend the WtW funds. There
are restrictions on both recipients of this funding and services provided. Specifically,up to 70%o of the funds
must be expended on TANF`(CalWCJRKs)participants who meet a specific criteria of"hard to serve', or the
noncustodial parents of CalWC3RKs children whose custodial parents meet the criteria. Up to 30% of the
funds may be expended on noncustodial parents who meet "hard to serve" criteria, or on other target
populations who .meet criteria of long-term dependency factors. Services include pre-employment and
placement services, post-employment ment .services, and supportive services such as substance abuse treatment,
transportation, child care,case management and ether services.
NCPs who enter the CO-OP Project will be screened for eligibility to JTPA%CalWORK:s Welfare-to-Work
Services,General Assistance Employment Services and federal WtW-funded services. To the extent a funding
stream is utilized,the NCP must meet the eligibility requirements of that funding. If federal Competitive Grant
funding is awarded to either or both PICS,funding from that source can also be utilized.
To make an initial estimate of the costs for PIC federal WtW Formula Chant funds, the following calculation
was done:
t The estimated number of participants who will receive employment and training funds over the three
years is 600.
t $500,000 over three years is budgeted for truck driver training. This funding is expected to train 125
participants',at a cost of$4,000 per participant. $250,000 of these funds is covered by state funds, and
the other$250,000 is expected to be funded from PIC federal WtW formula grant funds.
t There is approximately$444,000 other state funds in the Project for employment and training services
over the three years. If an estimated training cost of$2,000 per participant is used, this means an
additional 222 participants can:be trained with state funds.
t 125+222=347 participants trained. If no funds other than federal WtW formula grant fiends are
available for the remaining 253 participants, and the estimated training cost for those participants
is $3,000 per participant, then approximately $753,000 in federal formula grant funds would be
required to'serve these NCPs over the three years of the project.
t The estimated $759,000 plus the identified $250,000 in federal WtW formula grant funds for NCP
employment and training equals$1,009,000 in total estimated federal WtW formula grant funds for the
NCP CO-OP project.
t Total federal WtW funds to be received is estimated to be $4,250,000 {County PIC: $2,100,000;

Richmond PIC: $i,250,000;;SSD 5900,000). Thus,the total estimated WtW formula funding required>
for CO-OP would be approximately 23%of the total estimated formula grant finds.
The actual WtW formula grant funding expected to be needed for CO-OP should be lower, as this
calculation does not include other funds for which NCPs may qualify(such as CalWORKs Welfare-to-
Work Services,General Assistance Employment Services or JTPA)or competitive grants which may
be awarded to either or both PTCs.
