Healthy and Preparing for Productive Adulthood,,' Families that are Economically Self Sufficient,,,
"Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing"; and "Communities that are Safe and Provide a High

BACKGROUND:
The Independent Living Skills Program (ILSP) is designed to prepare foster children age 16 and over
for emancipation and responsible adulthood. Services offered through ILSP include daily living skills,
money management, career and educational planning, and housing assistance. The ILSP funding
allows counties to contract out for services and Contra Costa Employment and Human Services
Department has opted to use the services of individual contractors instead of an agency to allow for
more direct program activity monitoring.
Affordable housing is one of the many challenges faced by ILSP youth. This Board Carder will
authorize Employment and Human Services to continue the services of Ms. Peterson as Housing
Specialist. She has served in this capacity since April 2001 and her duties include identifying
affordable housing in the area, helping clients establish credit, conducting workshops on housing
issues, working with prospective landlords and helping families qualify and obtain affordable housing.
She will provide assistance to both ILSP and Children and Family Services clients and their families.

Succeeding in School"; "Children and Youth Healthy and Preparing for Productive Adulthood"; "Families
that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing"; and "Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for
Children and Families." Receiving centers provide a safe, child friendly place in the community for children

mental health care needs, while limiting disruption in school.
RAACKGROIT
The receiving centers maintained by Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD), provide shelter,

Receiving centers serve children who have been removed from their homes and allow EHSD to increase the
number of children who can safely return to their families or relatives without going to emergency foster
care. By providing time for family assessment, the centers reduce the number of disruptive placements to
which a child is subjected.
Moss Beach operates the East County Receiving Center (Antioch), Family Stress Center operates the Central
County Receiving; Center (Concord), and Imani Facilities, Inc, operates the West County Receiving Center in
Richmond. This Board order will authorize EHSD to continue to use these receiving centers for FY 2003-04.

SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO EXECUTE A CONTRACT FOR THE.
MAINTENANCE OF A CUSTOMIZED, INTRANET-BASED, SERVER
PLATFORM FOR FAMILY AND CHILL ASSESSMENTS.
Specific Request(S)or Recommendation (S)& Background and Justtfication
RECOMMENDATION (S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Community Services Director or designee to execute
contract #38-764-3 with Nulinx International Inc. in the amount of $36,000 for the
maintenance of a customized,Internet-based, server platform for federally mandated family
and child assessments for the period from May 1,2003 through April 30, 2004.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This contract is federally funded by the Head Start Basic Grant. Funding for this contract is
included in the Community Services Department's FY 2003-04 budget. There is no net
County cost to this contract.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT
The Community Services Department Head Start Program supports two of Contra Costa
County's community outcomes: "Children Ready for and Succeeding in School" and
"Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing." These outcomes are achieved by offering
comprehensive services, including high quality early childhood education, nutrition,health,
and social services, along with a strong parent involvement focus, to low-income children
throughout Contra Costa County. The overall goal of the program is to bring about a
greater degree of social competence in preschool children from low-income families.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), and the California Department of
Education, both require that family and child assessments be conducted on each family
within the program. The family and child assessment modules are required by federal rule
to collect data on a family's progress toward self.-sufficiency and the child's progress for
school readiness. This contract provides for the maintenance of the customized, Internet-
based, server platform for data input and report retrieval.
