CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
The Community Services Bureau of the Employment & Human Services Department's
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, and health services to low-
income children throughout Contra Costa County.
BACKGROUND:
The Community Services Bureau of the Employment & Human Services Department
participates in the State of California's Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) to
provide daily nutritious meals and snacks for the department's 19 early care and
education centers. The submission of the renewal application is essential to continued
food service operations.
The renewal re-certifies the County for the food program and makes the County eligible
to receive reimbursement for food costs in the preparation of meals and snacks
