FACILITIES DEPARTMENT

Facilities Director Jason Lal

March 2020

MSHS/MSEHS:

Furlough Projects: Projects scheduled for the furlough period such as those including cement

walkways, playground remodels, flooring and drainage have either been completed or are scheduled

to begin soon.

Budget Development: The budget development process has started. We are conducting site visits,

developing lists of needed facilities-related projects and vetting and prioritizing various requests from

staff, parents and surveys. This is a several month process. The budget is due for presentation to the

committee during the last week of March.

Head Start/Early Head Start and State CDE:

Monterey County Expansion: The projects are on hold until concerns with enrollment are ironed out.

Homeless Program:

40 Prado Road: We are working with the CCC, City of San Luis Obispo and AmeriCorps to coordinate a

group of approximately 30 volunteers to take on a storm water basin (the one along Prado Road) and

supply trench improvement project that will better filter the storm water runoff from this site prior to

it heading to the ocean. This is scheduled for March 28. It will involve planting certain vegetation that

filters the runoff, prevents soil erosion and is expected to increase watershed health and increase

stewardship at 40 Prado by educating and involving our clientele in the process. The City Biologist is

lending his expertise to this project.

Administration/Southwood/Other:

Current Projects: Continued assistance with day to day work requests as well as with grants, budget

development, inspections, year-end projects, renovations, set-ups for events, consulting, performing

walk through inspections, etc.

Expansion in San Luis Obispo- Consolidated Administrative Office Building: We are finalizing various

program needs and developing the Work Letters that would detail our requested Scope of Work for

the areas of the property that we will be leasing if everything works out favorably. Once the above

work has been completed we can finalize a cost per square foot to determine whether or not the

project is feasible. At this point the project still looks highly feasible. This project would consolidate

Southwood, CCRC, Palm Street, Ricardo Health and SSVF offices that are currently located in San Luis

Obispo. Energy may move as well if the circumstances are favorable.

3. ClientTrack Update for February 2020

Final CSBG numbers were submitted to the state and the numbers were lower than last year so

possible explanations as to why our numbers were low were included

o Reduction in funding for our one of the Energy programs meant less clients could be served

o A Veteran's program had a decrease in funding starting in the latter part of the year leading to

less staff to work with clients and less clients served

o A senior program had a reduction in clients coming into the program

o Staff changes within some departments may have lead to a lesser understanding of process of

entering clients into ClientTrack so that our report shows all clients

In 2020, we will be doing an upgrade to ClientTrack and then providing follow-up

training to staff to ensure that all entries are done completely and correctly

o In early 2019, it was discovered that our exports from out Head Start database (ChildPlus) were

not pulling all of the closed information, so some clients had not been closed from services in

the past that should have been. These past closures have been added in and a system has been

put in place to ensure that all closes are entered into the system correctly

All lag issues with the client dashboard have now been fixed

Below are the numbers for clients served between 1/1/2019 and 12/31/2019

Prevention and Early Intervention Program (PEI): Yescenia Leyva

The Prevention and Early Intervention program conducted

child activities with 35 children in nine Family Child Care

Homes during the month of January. Children engaged in an

activity aimed to practice the concept of “listening and paying attention” from the I Can Problem Solve Curriculum. Children played a game in which one person would hide a little mouse,

called Oddie Mouse, behind one of four different colored

houses. Children took turns guessing which house Oddie was

in. With adult guidance, the children were able to practice

following directions, taking turns, listening, and paying

attention to what the other children were guessing. The game

was also a great opportunity to encourage children to think of

ways to be gentle and caring to the little mouse. Thirty (30) parent summaries were given out this month to

encourage parents to continue practicing these skills at home.

Child Care Initiative Project (CCIP): Yenny Alvarez

In the month of February, we hosted a two session marketing workshop where providers learned how to create

marketing material to promote their childcare business. Providers created materials such as business cards,

flyers, t-shirts, pens, and tote bags with their business logos. Eleven (11) participants attended the first session

and seven (7) participants to session two. Nine (9) providers came to the open lab workshop to work on visual

schedules for their programs and two (2) providers checked out toys from the Toy and Resource Lending Library.

Another successful event was the Parent Café where parents engaged in conversations about resiliency, support

and relationships. The topic for this support group was: “When life gives you lemons…” It was a great experience for parents to talk about how they overcame through difficult situations.

Staff continued to provide technical assistance to three (3) participants with the child care licensing process. The

technical assistance included help with opening a Google email account, registration for licensing orientation,

and registration for CPR and First Aid and Preventative Health classes. One (1) licensed family child care provider

who was inactive, decided to open up again and offered care during evening hours.

Emergency Bridge Program for Foster Children: Kellie Carey

In the month of January, we received four new referrals, reaching six children. Navigation for these referrals

was especially challenging. They included a set of twins under one; two school-age children requiring

transportation, care during school closures, and specialized care for a child who is insulin dependent; and

other children under one in need of care. We were able to help with placements for most of the infants in

licensed child care settings. The family with school-age children is still trying to find the best fit for their

needs. Our child care navigator works hard to assist with child care need but in some cases, such as this one,

the children’s social emotional needs can limit options. In this case the resource parent’s work demands

Page 15 of 110

Page 16: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

meant she was in need of holiday care as well as school transportation to and from school. This meant that

the family would need to select two different child care providers for the children, one for school days and

one for holidays. After discussion with the resource parent, and based on the trauma that children have

already experienced, multiple care providers would not be in the best social emotional interest of the children.

With the children’s needs at the forefront, this resource parent is leaning towards staying at home full time so

she can provide for and meet all the needs of the children in her care.

First 5 Improving and Maximizing Programs so All Children Thrive (IMPACT): by Karina Ayala

In the month of February, our monthly training focused on “What is a learning environment,” and how it influences children’s learning and development. Thirteen (13) providers attended. Coach visits focused on Family Child Care Environmental Rating Scales (FCCERS), two providers completed unofficial assessments and

created a quality improvement plan getting them one-step closer to their goal. Quality Counts held a Desired

Results Developmental Profile (DRDP) and Meaningful observation (MO) training with a total of twenty (20)

participants in combined attendance. These participants are planning to implement the assessment tool to

create lesson plans and offer parent teacher conferences in the future.

During the next few months, trainings will focus on understanding children’s social emotional development and the environment, strong emotions and lesson plan implementation.

Child Care Food Program: by Rachel Puente

Child Care Food Program monitors conducted 33 site visits in the month of January. We enrolled three

providers onto the program. One is located in San Miguel, the other provider is located in Nipomo and our last

one is located in Templeton. Once again, we love enrolling new providers and we are excited they have joined

the program. One hundred and sixteen (116) timely claims for reimbursement were processed for over 36,000

December meals served to children in participating family child care homes.

We are getting ready for our upcoming trainings in February, March and April. The trainings help remind

providers about the food program regulations and anything new that is going on in the program. They provide

a great forum for reflection and opportunities to gather new ideas for meals to make healthier choices.

Subsidized Child Care: by Mika Buchanan

Our subsidized child care program serves families in San Luis Obispo County that are low income and have a

qualifying need (working, seeking work, education/Training) for child care services. Families choose whom

they wish to care for their child and CCRC reimburses the approved child care services directly to the child care

provider. The California Department of Education and the Department of Social Services of SLO fund CCRC.

The following chart shows the direct child care reimbursements per month and the number of children served

for all subsidized programs.

Child Care Resource Connection Outstations: by Mika Buchanan

Family Resource Specialists are co-located in the Department of Social Service offices throughout the County

of San Luis Obispo. We currently have 5 Specialists covering the 5 DSS office locations. Specialists are there to

provide child care referrals to families looking for child care providers and to enroll all CalWORKs referred

families into the subsidized child care program. Specialists are also liaisons to the DSS workers and CCRC

workers with regard to the clients we serve.

Families requesting child care referrals are directed to contact Outstation workers for a provider listing. The

majority of child care referrals made by Outstation specialists have become “enhanced referrals” where staff makes multiple phone inquiries to providers to locate a child care opening meeting the parent’s need and schedule, as well as utilizes MapQuest when distance and transportation issues impact a parent’s accessibility to services.

families. The Summit provided the perfect forum for the spectrum of early childhood stakeholders to learn

from, collaborate with, and empower one another.

Attendees include Raechelle Bowlay, Britney Ogden, Allison Biggers, David Fimbres, Nataly Renteria, Shana

Paulson, Mariela Rodriguez, Katie Mervin, and Karina Ayala.

Upcoming certifications

Desired Results Developmental Profile Trainer Certification – Allison Biggers and David Fimbres

scheduled to complete on August 2020.

Program Resource: by Sandra Woods, Program Resource Manager:

Our Stage 3 augmentation need has fallen a bit – to roughly $380K as provider payments have been a bit less

than anticipated. Still overall, this is a large need to fully fund this program. We have considerable

administrative expenses that we still have to spend and are looking to fill large expense item needs such as

computers, printers, etc. All in all, we are on track as to our spending and our administrative budget is very

sufficient.

Monterey County Grant Update

Submitted by Regional Manager Angie Ramirez

Staff continue to work on enrollment for the Monterey County Expansion. Most sites are operating and the

King City center is awaiting a licensing visit. In San Lucas, staff are recruiting children. For now, San Lucas

children will be served in a family child care option in Castroville.

Center Report: Five Cities Head Start

Submitted by Center Supervisor Maria Orozco

In February, children in Classroom A learned about community helpers, how to identify them, what their roles

are, and who we can get help from in our community. In Classroom B we studied insects. Children made their

own butterflies, experienced real worms, and also learned about bees, ants, and beetles. We read the Very

Hungry Caterpillar and children created their own insects.

At our Parent Meeting, we had a guest speaker who discussed parenting and hygiene. We also presented

information on kindergarten and let parents know that we could support them in getting their children

enrolled.

Center Report: Nipomo Head Start

Submitted by Center Supervisor Socorro Cano

In February, we learned about tubes and tunnels. Children were asked where they have seen tunnels before.

Teachers also asked open-ended questions regarding tubes and tunnels. For example, what do we know about

tunnels and what do we know about tubes? How are these different? How are they similar?

We have also started to learn about dinosaurs. We made pretend lava come out of a volcano. In the dramatic

play area, an excavation was set up. There the children were able to learn about how paleontologists have

found dinosaur fossils. The children learned which dinosaurs were carnivores and which were herbivores. We

talked about the dinosaurs coming from eggs. For math, we also showed how big the eggs could have been

and measured our footprints compared to a dinosaur’s. We also had the children predict how many of their

feet could fit in one dinosaur footprint.

For our Second Step lesson last month, we sang a song regarding staying safe. The children are using words to

express their feelings and about how to cope with strong feelings. We learned that safe touches are positive

and caring and that unsafe touches hurt our bodies. The children were given the opportunity to express what

they felt were safe touches (for example, hugs and holding hands). The children said pushing grabbing, and

hitting were unsafe touches.

At parent-teacher conferences this month we discussed the children’s academic progress and set new goals.

Our center has been hosting Parent Cafés and we’ve had a great turn out. Parents are taking advantage of this wonderful 6-week class. The cafés are bringing parents together to brainstorm and develop new relationships

with each other. These great classes are run by CAPSLO’s Parent Educator - Advocate Coordinator Miriam

Castillo. We are thankful for this program and are sure the parents benefit greatly from it.

ADULT DAY SERVICES Program Manager Mara Whitten

Adult Day Center

Current enrollment at the Center: 34

Daily average: 18

Hours of services provided: 1,907

Number of meals served: 339

As concerns arise of the COVID-19, staff members at the Adult Day Center are taking the necessary

precautions and following the guidance outlined by the State of California Health and Human Services Agency

Department of Social Services. Older people and people with certain underlying health conditions are at

greatest risk. Therefore, our facility is limiting visitors that have symptoms of respiratory illness and ensure

employees do not work with similar symptoms. The staff are also assisting clients with proper hygiene and

sanitizing common areas. Family members will be informed on what actions we are taking to protect their

loved ones and any changes of services at the Center should such need arise.

The Adult Day Center is now equipped with an AED or Automated External Defibrillator. Staff members

received training on the use of the AED by the American Red Cross. Family members have been advised of the

new lifesaving device and are encouraged to provide documentation for those that have a DNR and to provide

the proper documentations to the Center so their loved ones wish may be honored. We wish to thank Loren

Leidinger for her help in obtaining the AED device.

Many thanks to the Paso Robles City Council for approving funds for the Adult Day Center from the

Community Development Block Grant for $13,700. A big thank you to the planning department for their help

in acquiring these funds.

Success story:

“Hi everyone, my name is Alice from Alice in Wonderland!” That is how our newest member, Alice, introduced herself on her first day at the Adult Day Center. Alice and her husband split their time between their homes in

Missouri and in Avila Beach. Alice attends an Adult Day Center at her

home in Missouri and was delighted to find a similar program at the

Adult Day Center.

ENERGY DEPARTMENT

Program Director Jim McNamara

Home Repair Programs

Energy received its 2020 contract for the CDBG Home repair Programs for SLO County and Pismo Beach. These

programs offer larger repairs than can be done under Senior Home Repair with a focus on accessibility

improvements like ramps and wheelchair lifts and accessible bathrooms and showers. CDBG also covers

repairs like drywall, plumbing and electrical. Energy submitted 26 projects to County of San Luis Obispo

Planning staff for environmental review and approval. Work will begin as soon as those approvals are received

from the county.

Energy crews have been busy on large home projects in Santa Maria, completing a wheelchair ramp and lift for

two low-income seniors.

New Equipment

Energy purchased new diagnostic testing equipment for performing duct testing, blower door testing and

combustion air safety testing under its LIHEAP, DOE and ESA programs. There are 5 new Sensit carbon

monoxide analyzers for testing gas appliances, furnaces and water heaters. Energy also acquired 3 new

Minneapolis Duct Blaster Systems with new DG-1000 gauges and two Blower Testing Systems. The new

equipment is helping Energy crews perform more accurate testing in the homes of our clients which provides

guidance on what repairs to perform to increase energy efficiency and improve health & safety.

Martha’s Place By: Marivel Flores, Martha’s Place Family Advocate

Success Story:

Marie is the grandmother and legal guardian to Stella who is 7 years old and Joseph who is 4 years old. Both

children are receiving services at Martha’s Place. Marie is a hardworking grandmother and does her best to provide for her grandchildren’s needs. The Family Advocate (FA) checks-in with client every month, last month

when the FA contacted the client, she shared that she was sick and missed work for two weeks. Marie shared

that she was not being paid for those two weeks, so she needed assistance with some groceries. The FA

provided the client with a $50 grocery gift card and a Food Bank Distribution Site Calendar, and highlighted the

days of distribution for where she lived. Marie shared that she was very thankful for the gift card and the

information.

organization that supports South County families with financial resources to cover tangible items and

household costs (i.e., utility payments, summer camp costs, etc.). The two events brought in $3,500.

SAFE’s monthly food distribution took place on the third Friday of February and over 50 families

accessed services.

The FRC Supervisor presented to the District Attorney’s Victim Witness staff regarding SAFE services throughout the County. The program was able to answer questions and establish a connection to

better serve and support Victim Witness clients.

Any Programmatic Updates/Changes:

SAFE family advocates will be using the 5 Protective Factors Survey effective March, 1, 2020.

The Family Resource Center Supervisor was appointed Vice Chair for the South County Youth Coalition

then tools from the Your Money, Your Goals toolkit will be introduced/utilized.

Client Success Story:

Lulu has transitioned her Cal-Learn participation from Monterey County to San Luis Obispo after five long

months of working with DSS to make this happen. During the five months, Lulu and the Advocate called back

and forth between the two counties for updates and discovered that Paso Robles DSS was experiencing a

delay in picking up county transfer applications due to employee turnover and the system not acknowledging

the transfer. While waiting, Lulu was actively participating in TAPP and Cal-Learn services to not only better

herself but also her 2 year-old son. Lulu is extremely happy that her case was finally picked up by San Luis

Obispo County after waiting for so long. She is a few months away from completing her high school education,

earning her diploma, and receiving her $500 Cal-Learn bonus.

This month AWAPS saw 56 clients over 9 clinics.

We have a 95 year old client who we see every other month at her senior home. We have seen her through

several health challenges but she always bounces back. This month the building manager came to us and

asked if we would see her in her apartment as she had a bloody nose. When we went to her apartment she

was in her easy chair looking exhausted and wan. There was caked blood in her nose and blood down her chin

and neck. It turns out she had been having daily bloody noses all week but this was the first one that had really

scared her. Her vital signs were OK but we insisted she needed to go to the ER. She was waiting for her

daughter to return home from work in the evening to get a ride. Instead we called and spoke with her

daughter and the client went to the ER and her daughter met her there where she received medical care.

We are only at this location every other month for a few hours and feel so grateful that we were there when

she needed us.

304 households. The total persons served was higher-than-typical, with a total of 3,446 person days (nearly

119 people/day; the 14-month median is 112/day). The Shelter hosted slightly fewer children than usual, with

an average of 4.6 children/day, with 14 unique children for a total of 132 person days.

People’s Kitchen served hot lunch to an average of over 79 persons/day and a total of 2,301 meals served. The

breakfast program had fewer unique participants than typical for the past 14 months, though the total meals

The number of unique children was 20, the same as the 14 month median. Those children used 398 bed

nights, for an average of 13.7 children per night, which is well above the 14 month median.

Due to continued efforts by staff to give turned-away participants more time to make other arrangements,

unique Diner and Dashers continued at much lower levels than 14 month norms, with 33 individuals from 32

households. Those participants received 34 meals. Dinners served, including Diners and Dashers, was 2,853,

well below the 14 month median of 3 132.

Warming Center

There were 8 Warming Center nights, with a total of 42 unique individuals utilizing 74 bed nights. These

numbers are below those months with Warming Center (14 month norms were 9 days with 70 unique

participants & 139 bed nights).

Safe Parking Program

The Safe Parking program had 200 parking nights with a total of 7 participants. There are currently 7

participants in the Safe Parking Program.

Facilities Update

Due to continued issues with both the alarm and the HVAC, we are reviewing those service providers.

S.L.O. Case Management

San Luis Obispo Case Management served a total of 36 clients, well above the 14 month median of 26. Of the

3 Case Managed families, 4 were adults, 8 were children. Of the Case Managed 24 single adults, 5 were

seniors, 12 were disabled adults and 9 were chronically homeless. 1 individual was housed.

S.L.O. Coordinated Entry Process

Staff conducted outreach to 18 new individuals, which is well above the 14 month median of 11/month. 24

unique participants received 404 case management services (well above the 14 month median of 320/month),

23 unique participants received 70 therapy services (right on the 14 month median of 70/month).

Recuperative Care Program

The R.C.P. served 11 unique medically fragile participants (above the 14 month median of 9) for a total of 129

bed nights.

Success Story

At our recent SLO-Hub graduation celebration, 4 participants (pictured with case manager, Crystal and

therapist, Sarah) celebrated their successful completion of the program! All overcame their unique

challenges, which included co-occurring mental health and substance abuse, to achieve and maintain sobriety

and stabilize their mental health wellness. Three of the four came from the riverbed in Atascadero into 40

Prado desperately wanting to change their circumstances and through their dedicated efforts over the last

year, and the support of the amazing SLO-Hub staff, they all were able to obtain and maintain housing in the

community. Linda (pictured with her sweet support dog, Bess) said “40 Prado and SLO-Hub literally saved my

life. I know for a fact that I would not be alive today if it wasn’t for this place”. We celebrate their recovery and success!!

Success Story

The SSVF Team learned of the passing of one of our active participants at the end of January. The Veterans

Family had been in touch with SSVF seeking assistance in notifying the landlord and coordinating relinquishing

of the rental unit. Our team was deeply saddened to hear of his passing but feel some peace knowing that he

had a safe dignified home for his remaining days. The family, which wish to remain anonymous, send a

heartfelt thank you email to the Programs Manager and have given us permission to share with you.

Dear CAPSLO Team,

I wanted to thank you all for the wonderful work that you all do each and everyday helping those in

need of housing on the central coast. My father came to you all as a veteran in need of assistance with

affordable housing about 6 months ago. After a few bad breaks over the years, he had decided to live out of his

car for the past 15 years in San Luis Obispo county as he was unable to find any affordable housing situations.

His family had offered to help many times, but he was too proud to accept help and was determined to

continue living in his car until he received a cancer diagnosis about 6 months ago. Understanding that he

would not be unable to endure the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation treatment while living in his car,

he agreed to look into housing assistance with your CAPSLO program. The stress of finding affordable housing

quickly began to take a toll on my father as he began his cancer treatment. He was desperate for help and was

beginning to panic, believing that he would be unable to find a housing situation quickly enough for his

situation. Fortunately, thanks to a lot of hard work, extra caring, and dedication from John, Selina, Jason, and

Tom, my father was able to find and afford a small cottage in Grover Beach.

Immediately after moving in, my father was able to properly rest and focus on completing therapy. He

regained a sense of pride from having his own place and our family was able to spend the first Christmas with

him in a home in over 15 years. This created many smiles and memories for both him as well as the rest of his

family. Unfortunately, after the holidays, my father’s cancer returned aggressively and became terminal, so we

Page 62: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

began hospice care at home for him. Having his own place not only allowed a safe and functional place for him

to receive hospice care at home, but also gave him a sense of dignity, and provided a place for family and

friends to come visit and say their final goodbyes. For this, my family will always be grateful to you all for

providing a home for us to create these last loving memories together. My father recently passed away and our

family just wanted to convey our deepest thanks to your staff for the amazing service that you provide. After

looking back, we wish we would have known about the CAP SLO program earlier as it could have helped us

create even more memories with my father. I would highly encourage anybody that thinks they may qualify to

reach out to CAP SLO and try to secure the help you provide not only to the qualifying individuals, but their

families as well that care about them so much.

4. Key Words: Consolidated Appropriations Act; Appropriations; Fiscal Year (FY) 2020; Funding Increase; Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA); Quality Improvement

PROGRAM INSTRUCTION

SUBJECT: FY 2020 Head Start Funding Increase

INSTRUCTION:

President Trump signed Public Law 116-94, the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020, on December 20, 2019. Included is $10,613,095,000 for programs under the Head Start Act, an increase of $550 million over the fiscal year (FY) 2019 funding level.

This increase includes $193 million to provide all Head Start, Early Head Start (EHS), and Early Head Start-Child Care (EHS-CC) Partnership grantees a 2% cost-of-living adjustment (COLA); $100 million for expansion of EHS and EHS-CC Partnerships; $250 million for quality improvement; and $4 million to re-establish the Tribal Colleges and Universities Head Start Partnership Program.

This Program Instruction (PI) primarily provides information about the COLA and quality improvement funds available to grantees in FY 2020 and describes the requirements for applying for these funds. All Head Start, Early Head Start, and EHS-CC Partnership grantees are eligible to receive COLA and quality improvement funds. Grantees subject to competition for continued funding through the Designation Renewal System (DRS) are entitled to COLA funds through the end of their current award. However, the Administration for Children and Families reserves the right to delay decisions on quality improvement funding until the outcome of the DRS competitions has been finalized.

Preliminary information is also included on availability of competitive funding for EHS and EHS-CC Partnerships expansion and the Tribal Colleges and University Partnership grants, with more details coming in the near future. State Collaboration grants are not eligible for the COLA due to the statutory cap on their funding in the Head Start Act.

FY 2020 COLA

Each grantee may apply for a COLA increase of 2% of the FY 2019 base funding level. Base funding excludes training and technical assistance funds and any one-time funding received during FY 2019.

Grantees must use COLA funds to permanently increase the Head Start pay scale by no less than 2%. This includes salaries of current staff and the pay range of unfilled vacancies. An equivalent increase must be provided to delegate agencies and other partners to adjust their salaries and scales. Any grantee concerned that they cannot increase salary due to wage comparability issues should ensure public school salaries for kindergarten are included in their considerations.

Page 64 of 110

Page 65: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

Sections 653 and 640(j) of the Head Start Act provide further guidance on the uses and limitations of COLA funds. Sec. 653 restricts compensation to a Head Start employee that is higher than the average rate of compensation paid for substantially comparable services in the area where the program is operating. It also prohibits any Head Start employee from being compensated at a rate higher than that of an Executive Schedule Level II position, including employees being paid through indirect costs. Sec. 640(j) of the Act requires that the compensation of Head Start employees must be improved regardless of whether the agency has the ability to improve the compensation of staff employed by the agency that do not provide Head Start services.

Any grantee proposing a COLA percentage less than 2% across its pay scale, or differential increases between delegates or partners, must justify its rationale in its budget narrative.

As specified in Personnel policies, 45 CFR §1302.90, each grantee is required to establish written personnel policies and procedures that are approved by the governing body and Policy Council or policy committee. They must be available to all staff. Review your personnel policies and procedures since they may contain information relevant to this COLA.

Any remaining funds may be applied to fringe benefits costs, or to offset increased operating costs in other areas of the budget. This includes increased costs in rent, utilities, facilities maintenance and insurance, contractual arrangements, vehicle fuel and maintenance, supplies, and equipment.

FY 2020 Quality Improvement

Each grantee will be allocated a proportionate amount of quality improvement funding based on the number of slots they are funded to serve (approximately $250 per Head Start slot and $350 per EHS slot). However, there will be a minimum floor established to ensure all grantees are able to make a meaningful investment in quality, consistent with Sec. 640(a)(4)(C) of the Head Start Act. Grantees are strongly encouraged to invest this funding into ongoing program efforts and activities that help better incorporate a trauma-informed approach that will support children, families, and staff impacted by adverse experiences. Activities must align with Sec. 640(a)(5) of the Act, as outlined in Attachment A. However, programs are not bound by the requirements that at least 50% of the funds be used for staff compensation or that no more than 10% of funds be used on transportation. Further, programs have flexibility to use any amount of their quality improvement funding on Early Head Start and/or Head Start, based on community needs, and not to exceed the total amount available in a given grant. If a program chooses to use this flexibility, they must justify how this approach supports the greatest needs of their community.

Importantly, grantees should consider ongoing, sustained investments in quality improvements, as opposed to one-time investments, while also acknowledging one-time investments in FY 2020 may be necessary to sustain ongoing quality improvement. Grantees encountering other one-time program improvement needs are invited to apply for supplemental funding as needs emerge. These separate requests are addressed by priority and subject to availability of funds. Below is further information on the definitions of trauma and trauma-informed approach, developed by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

Trauma occurs when frightening events or situations overwhelm a child or adult's ability to cope or deal with what has happened. These kinds of experiences cause an extended stress response and lasting effects on the physical and mental health of the individual. Trauma can occur in the form of a single event (e.g., a natural disaster or death of a close family member) or as a series of events or chronic condition (e.g., substance misuse, domestic and community violence, child abuse and neglect, extended homelessness, or food insecurity). Exposure to traumatic experiences is more common than most people believe, and the experience of trauma is highly individualized. What is traumatic to one person does not necessarily have the same traumatic effect on another person who experienced the same event or situation. In addition to enrolled

Page 65 of 110

Page 66: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

children and families, Head Start staff may themselves experience trauma, as well as stress associated with their role in supporting children and families impacted by trauma.

A trauma-informed approach is one that realizes the widespread impact of trauma and understands potential paths for recovery; looks out for potential signs and symptoms of trauma among children, families, and staff; fully integrates knowledge about trauma into program policies, procedures, and practices; and seeks to actively resist re-traumatization. Related activities vary widely. They can include additional qualified staff to lower teacher-child ratios or family service staff caseloads; enhanced mental health partnerships and services for children and families; and transportation services. See Attachment B for additional information, including several concrete examples.

There is also flexibility in the use of these quality improvement funds to meet grantees' most pressing local needs. Therefore, a program may apply to use quality improvement funds for activities consistent with Sec. 640(a)(5) of the Act, except that any amount of these funds may be used on any of the activities specified in such section. See Attachment A for the list of activities. If a program applies to invest quality improvement funds in an activity or activities specified under Sec. 640(a)(5) that are not directly related to promoting trauma-informed care and supporting children, families, and staff impacted by trauma, the program must justify why this is the best use of these funds.

The Office of Head Start recently held a webinar on the quality improvement funding, and the webinar recording will be available on the Early Childhood Learning and Knowledge Center (ECLKC) soon.

Application Requirements

Grantees are required to request COLA and quality improvement funds through a grant application. Shortly, grantees will be issued a funding guidance letter specifying each funding level and additional instructions on how to apply for these funds. Grantees will be required to submit their applications in the Head Start Enterprise System (HSES).

EHS Expansion and EHS-CC Partnerships

One hundred million dollars is available to support new grants for traditional EHS and EHS-CC Partnerships to increase access to high-quality infant and toddler early learning. Funding will be awarded by March 2021. A funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is expected in summer 2020. This announcement will equally prioritize EHS expansion and EHS-CC Partnerships, as determined by the needs of local communities. More information on this opportunity will be available later this year.

Tribal Colleges and University Partnership Grants

Four million dollars is available to fund grants to Tribal Colleges or Universities who partner with at least one American Indian and Alaska Native (AIAN) Head Start agency. The grants will be designed to:

Increase the number of degrees in the early childhood education fields Provide assistance to Head Start staff and parents enrolled in such programs Develop curricula to promote high-quality services and instruction Provide activities to upgrade the skills and qualifications of education personnel Offer technology literacy programs for AIAN Head Start agency staff Develop and implement virtual learning opportunities

INFORMATION MEMORANDUM

TO: All Head Start and Early Head Start Agencies and Delegate Agencies

SUBJECT: Head Start Modular Units

INFORMATION:

A modular unit is defined as "a portable prefabricated structure made at another location and moved to a site for use by a Head Start grantee to carry out a Head Start program, regardless of the manner or extent to which the modular unit is attached to underlying real property." The definition includes modular units used for any program purpose, including classrooms, kitchens, administrative offices, and storage buildings. See Terms, 45 CFR §1305.2. The purchase of any modular units with Head Start funds is subject to the provisions of 45 CFR Part 1303 Subpart E.

Many different types of prefabricated structures fall within the general term "modular unit." Some are structurally similar to traditional construction, subject to local building codes and firmly attached to an underlying foundation. These units can provide high-quality learning environments with a useful life similar to traditional construction.

At the other end of the spectrum are units that arrive on wheels and are installed by placement on supports without a full foundation. Local building codes are not usually applicable to these types of units. They are often referred to as manufactured or mobile units. Their useful life is significantly less than traditionally constructed buildings. Especially in harsh climates, these units tend to deteriorate quickly and require significant ongoing maintenance. They also lose structural stability, develop mold issues, and lose quality as a learning environment much sooner than high-quality modular units or traditional construction. See Teaching and the learning environment, 45 CFR §1302.31.

The Office of Head Start (OHS) recognizes there are circumstances when modular units are a quality, cost effective option for program services. However, purchase of a modular unit should not be a grantee's first choice when the option of construction or purchase of a traditionally built facility exists in the community. Similarly, when replacing older modular units, grantees should consider whether better quality modular units, construction, or purchase options are available in the community. While reasonableness of cost should always be a consideration for grantees, low-cost modular units are not a preferred option when other better-quality facility options are available.

To assure modular units used as Head Start facilities result in quality, cost effective learning environments, OHS is implementing the following requirements.

Application for Purchase of a Modular Unit

Page 68 of 110

Page 69: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

When a grantee applies for purchase of a modular unit under 45 CFR Part 1303 Subpart E, the following additional information is required per 45 CFR §1303.44(a)(14).

1. A statement indicating whether the modular unit will be classified as real property or equipment in the grantee's financial records. This classification must be maintained until the modular unit is disposed of in accordance with Real Property, 45 CFR §75.318(c) or Equipment, 45 CFR §75.320(e), as applicable.

2. A description of the procurement procedures that will be used to purchase the modular unit in compliance with 45 CFR §75.329.

3. If the modular unit proposed for purchase will be classified as real property, the grantee must submit standard form (SF)-429 with Attachment B. If the modular unit proposed for purchase will be classified as equipment, follow 45 CFR §75.407(a)(7) for prior approval. The modular unit must be included in the grantee's equipment inventory maintained in accordance with 45 CFR §75.320(d)(1)–(5).

4. The cost comparison required by 45 CFR §1303.45 must address the full cost of initial purchase of the modular unit. This includes site acquisition and preparation, delivery, set-up, and additional site work needed (e.g., ramps, fencing, parking, play area, landscaping). Estimated operating costs, including ongoing maintenance and repairs, must be also be provided, with an assumed estimated useful life of 15 years. For purposes of comparison with available alternatives within the community (see below), the cost of replacement of the modular unit at the end of 15 years must also be included.

5. Modular unit costs must be compared to available alternatives within the community, including construction of a new facility and purchase or lease of an existing facility (with any associated renovation costs). Initial and ongoing costs for comparable facilities must be estimated, including depreciation, with an assumed useful life of 30 years.

6. The application must describe the placement of the modular unit proposed for purchase. It also must indicate if the modular unit will be placed on leased or grantee-owned property and the method of installation (e.g., placed on a poured foundation, on blocks, or other supports). The extent to which the modular unit can be removed and relocated must also be addressed, including whether it is possible to relocate the unit without significant damage to its structure once installed.

7. The statement of a real estate professional described in 45 CFR §1303.42(b) must clearly show the realtor making the certification considered the options of construction, purchase, or leasing of facilities as an alternative to purchase of a modular unit.

Request for Disposition of a Modular Unit

The disposition process for a modular unit depends on how the unit was classified in the grantee's financial records (real property or equipment) at the time of purchase and during its period of ownership by the grantee. A grantee may not change the historic classification of a modular unit for purposes of disposition. If classified as real property, the unit is subject to the disposition requirements described in 45 CFR §75.318(c) and 45 CFR §75.308(c)(1)(xi). A unit classified as equipment is subject to the disposition requirements described in 45 CFR §75.320(e) and 45 CFR §75.308(c)(1)(xi). For more information, please see the ACF Property: Disposition website.

Real Property

When the modular unit has been classified as real property, the grantee is required to submit SF-429 with Attachment C in the GrantSolutions Online Data Collection (OLDC) to request approval for disposition of the unit. Note that line 14e requires the grantee to enter the third-party appraised value of the real property (current market value). Current market value must be established by an independent certified real property appraiser (no more than three years old). The appraisal must be uploaded to the SF-429 Attachment C in GrantSolutions OLDC to verify the current market value amount.

The modular unit should be appraised separately from the land upon which it is located. The appraisal must clearly indicate the appraised value of:

1. The land, if owned by the grantee 2. The modular unit value in its existing location

Page 69 of 110

Page 70: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

Modular units classified as real property are usually firmly attached to the land upon which they are located. If the grantee does not own the land, all costs related to the proposed disposition (e.g., demolition, site restoration, takedown, moving, and new site preparation) must be identified in the disposition request. If the overall cost of all disposition options result in a net value that is $0 or less, there is no value for OHS to recover in the modular unit. The Office of Grants Management (OGM) will review all disposition requests in which there is no recoverable value. If there are no issues or concerns, the respective Grants Management Officer (GMO) will approve release of the federal interest.

Equipment

When the modular unit has been classified as equipment and has a current market value of $5,000 or more, grantees are required to submit the Tangible Personal Property Report—Disposition Request using SF-428 with Attachment C through the Head Start Enterprise System (HSES). Send correspondence to the GMO no later than 30 days before the proposed disposition. The modular unit may be retained, sold, or transferred as directed by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) in accordance with 45 CFR §75.320.

When the modular unit has been classified as equipment and has a current market value of $5,000 or less, the modular unit may be retained, sold, or otherwise disposed of without payment of proceeds to the awarding agency (45 CFR §75.320(e)(1)). However, proceeds must be recognized as additive program income and used only for allowable Head Start program expenses. All requests for disposition instructions must be made in writing through HSES Correspondence to the GMO no later than 30 days before the proposed change. If there are no issues or concerns, the respective GMO will proceed with approval to release the federal interest.

Thank you for your work on behalf of children and families.

Coronavirus Prevention and Response

The Office of Head Start (OHS) recognizes that grantees are concerned about the impact the coronavirus may have on their programs. Head Start and Early Head Start programs should take steps to prevent the introduction and spread of coronavirus among their staff, children, and families. Through collaboration and coordination with local health departments, programs can take steps to disseminate information about the disease and its potential transmission.

Coronavirus-2019 (COVID-19) is an emerging global disease. There is more to learn about its transmission, severity, and other features, as well as what may happen in the United States. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provides up-to-date information about prevention, symptoms, testing, and the current situation. They also offer interim guidance to help administrators of public and private child care programs and K–12 schools prevent the spread of COVID-19 among students and staff. How Coronavirus-2019 Spreads

The virus is thought to spread mainly from person to person:

When they are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet) Via respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes

o These droplets may be inhaled or can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby

By touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or eyes

o This is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads

People are thought to be most contagious when they are sickest. Some spread may be possible before people show symptoms, but this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads. Prevention Strategies

Currently, there is no vaccine to prevent coronavirus disease. The best way to prevent illness is to avoid exposure. The following everyday actions can help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases:

Avoid close contact with people who are sick Frequently wash your hands with soap and water for at least 20 seconds Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth Stay home when you are sick Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue or the inside of your elbow, then throw the tissue

in the trash and wash your hands Clean and disinfect objects and surfaces using cleaning, sanitizing, and disinfecting

solutions o Follow manufacturer label directions to determine strength, purpose, and stay time

Page 72: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

For more information, see:

Caring for Our Children (CFOC) 3.3.0.1. Routine Cleaning, Sanitizing, and Disinfecting How to Clean and Disinfect Schools to Help Slow the Spread of Flu

Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. This is especially important after going to the bathroom, before eating, and after cleaning, blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water if they are visibly dirty.

Handwashing: Clean Hands Save Lives CFOC 3.2.2. Hand Hygiene

CDC does not recommend that people who are well wear a facemask to protect themselves from respiratory diseases, including coronavirus.

These are everyday habits that can help prevent the spread of several viruses. CDC also has specific guidance for travelers. Preparedness Planning

Programs can work with local health departments and other emergency responders to prepare for a pandemic outbreak. Consider using resources such as:

Child Care and Preschool Pandemic Influenza Planning Checklist Preparing Child Care Programs for Pandemic Influenza

Treatment

There is no specific antiviral treatment recommended for the coronavirus at this time. People who think they may have been exposed to coronavirus should contact their healthcare provider immediately. What Programs in Communities with Identified Coronavirus Should Know

Head Start and Early Head Start programs should work in close collaboration and coordination with local health officials. If an ill student or staff member attended the program prior to being confirmed as a coronavirus case:

Local health officials may recommend temporary dismissals Seek guidance from local health officials and your Health Services Advisory Committee to

determine when children and staff should return to the program and what additional steps are needed

If program operations are impacted by the coronavirus, please reach out to your Regional Office to inform them of any programmatic changes. Save the Date

Community Services Block Grant Dear Colleague Letter

DCL#: CSBG-DCL-2020-15

DATE: March 12, 2020

TO: CSBG Network

SUBJECT: Partnership to Address the Spread of COVID-19

ATTACHMENT(S): N/A

Dear Colleagues,

Thank you for your continued engagement and partnership with us to address and mitigate the

spread of COVID-19. We highly value our strong ongoing partnership, and hope to continue to

be a resource to you as you implement community mitigation techniques. As you might

imagine, a number of HHS divisions are releasing COVID-19-related information on funding and

guidance. We thought it would be helpful to batch up information on key issues to keep you up-

to-date.

Funding for States to Address COVID-19

Today, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced upcoming action by

the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to provide resources to state and local

jurisdictions in support of our nation's response to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

The $8.3 billion dollar Supplemental passed by Congress included statutory language which

prescribed the exact formula for disbursing the money: states will receive 90% of their 2019

CDC PHEP grants. This marks the first tranche of funding to states from the $8.3 billion

supplemental. Today, CDC is contacting State Health Officers to move forward with awarding

over $560 million to states, localities, territories, and tribes. CDC will use existing networks to

reach out to state and local jurisdictions to access this initial funding. To view the list of CDC

funding actions to jurisdictions, click here.

Helping Communities Know Mitigation Strategies

Yesterday, CDC released their “Implementation of Mitigation Strategies for Communities with

Local COVID-19 Transmission.” Essentially, this is a guide describing possible mitigation

strategies for communities dealing with transmission at three different levels: (1)

Page 85 of 110

Page 86: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

2/3

None/Minimal, (2) Moderate, or (3) Substantial. Community mitigation strategies, which are

non-pharmaceutical interventions, are often the most available interventions to help slow the

transmission of COVID-19 in communities. The Mitigation Plan includes a set of actions that

persons and communities can take to slow the spread of respiratory virus infections. The

Community Mitigation Plan can be found here.

Guidance on Infection Control For Healthcare Workers

Yesterday, CDC released updated guidance on infection prevention and control

recommendations. Healthcare workers are fighting this outbreak on the front lines, and this

guidance is intended to provide assistance to healthcare settings that are handling suspected or

confirmed cases of COVID-19. This guidance is applicable to all U.S. healthcare settings, but not

for non-healthcare settings. There is separate guidance for that. The new guidance on infection

control can be found here.

Guidance for Preparing Workplaces

This week, the Department of Labor released practical guidance for how to prepare workplaces

for COVID-19. This guidance will help to educate workers and employers about the COVID-19

outbreak. The guidance can be found here.

Guidance for Laboratories

The CDC has been actively working to address the need for testing across the country. In

addition to public health laboratories, private labs are doing testing. In addition to reviewing

the Updated Guidance on Evaluating and Testing Persons for Coronavirus Disease 2019, the

CDC recently updated the FAQ website for laboratories, and we encourage you to read through

the site to answer preliminary questions, though we stand ready to answer other questions

that you may have.

Guidance to Prepare Homeless Shelters

We recognize persons experiencing homelessness are an especially vulnerable population. CDC

released guidance on March 9, to help homeless shelters plan, prepare and respond to COVID-

19. The guidance can be found here.

OMB Flexibilities

On March 9, 2020, OMB issued a memo that provides administrative relief for recipients and

applicants of Federal financial assistance who are directly impacted by COVID-19. The grant

flexibilities include 10 actions that HHS can take to provide short-term administrative and

financial management relief, allowing funds to be awarded quicker and giving grantees the

ability to focus on their critical response, research, or services. More information can be found

here.

General Preparation Information

On March 9, 2020, the White House Coronavirus Task Force released practical steps that we

recommend posting and sharing to keep workplaces, school, home and commercial

establishments safe. This information can be found here.

3/3

The COVID-19 response is a whole-of-government effort and each department has a number of

specific resources. We encourage you to explore those resources as necessary to respond to

the situation in your communities.

If you have any questions on these items or other issues, please feel free to reach out.

Thank you for your attention and OCS looks forward to continuing to provide high quality

services to OCS grantees.

COVID-19 Wages and Benefits

In addition to the general flexibilities in ACF-IM-HS-19-01, the Office of Head Start (OHS) is providing the following additional flexibility regarding wage and benefits for employees impacted by Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) closures.

In response to COVID-19, OHS is advising grantees to coordinate with local health authorities and implement their existing policies and procedures related to closure of Head Start centers during infectious disease outbreaks. Closure of centers in areas heavily impacted by COVID-19 is an important element of containing and limiting its spread.

In recognition of the unique circumstances associated with COVID-19, OHS is directing programs to continue to pay wages and provide benefits for staff unable to report to work during center closures necessary to address COVID-19. During center closures, employees should continue to engage families and to deliver services to the extent possible, remotely.

This additional emergency response flexibility is important to ensure critical grants management activities can continue during closures. It will help ensure staff are ready and able to return to work as soon as it is possible to resume operations. This flexibility remains in effect through April 30, 2020 unless further extended by OHS.

Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) Flexibilities

Many Head Start and Early Head Start programs are following the lead of school systems and local health authorities and closing their centers. Caring and creative programs understand their communities best and are looking for ways to support them.

Head Start and Early Head Start programs may provide meals and snacks to children during center closures. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has waived its group setting meal requirement for closed schools and authorized special flexibilities for many states. These waivers include the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP). Grantees may work with their state CACFP agency to determine whether similar flexibilities that can support the ongoing availability of meals and snacks for enrolled children are available during Head Start and Early Head Start program closures. In the event of an extended center closure, perishable food should be safely disposed of in a way that minimizes waste, such as donation to a local food bank or distribution to enrolled families.

CACFP, funded through USDA, covers most of the cost of meals and snacks for enrolled Head Start and Early Head Start children. A program must use funds from the USDA Food, Nutrition, and Consumer Services child nutrition programs as the primary source of payment for meal services. Head Start and Early Head Start funds may be used to cover those allowable costs not covered by the USDA.

The Office of Head Start (OHS) reminds programs in affected areas to follow local guidance from health departments and other authorities, including not working when sick, social distancing, and group size limitations. Possible strategies for providing food to children during center closures include the following:

Programs could assemble bags of food, including formula for enrolled infants, and deliver them to homes in agency school buses or other agency vehicles. Families could come out to collect the bags or they could be delivered to the door.

Food could be assembled and families could pick it up at a center or other location. Care should be taken to avoid large groups and prevent anyone who is sick from coming to collect food. This could include a "drive-through" station in areas where families have cars.

Programs could check with local schools, churches, or other community organizations to see if there are partnership opportunities to increase the efficiency of food distribution.

While we often think of disasters as natural events such as hurricanes and earthquakes, health emergencies can also form the basis of a disaster declaration. The guidance from ACF-HS-IM-19-01 General Disaster Recovery Flexibilities can be applied to Head Start and Early Head Start programs impacted by Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).

As OHS becomes aware of other flexibilities, we will share it with programs. We encourage Head Start and Early Head Start agencies to meet the needs of affected children and families while keeping staff and families safe. If

Grant No. 09CH011137

Dear Head Start Grantee:

The Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020, contains an increase of approximately $550 million for

programs under the Head Start Act for Fiscal Year (FY) 2020. The increase provides $193 million for a cost-of-living

adjustment (COLA) and $250 million for Quality Improvement investments for Head Start. The COLA supports an

increase of two percent for each grantee to increase staff salaries and fringe benefits, and offset higher operating

costs. COLA funds are effective at the start of the FY 2020 budget period and are retroactive if this period has

already begun. Quality Improvement funds are allocated proportionately based on federal funded enrollment, with

additional consideration given to small grantees to allow for a meaningful investment, as permitted by the Act.

The following table reflects the COLA and Quality Improvement increases available for FY 2020.

Funding Type Head Start Early Head StartCost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) $57,242 $43,232

Quality Improvement (QI) $48,412 $43,188

Total Funding $192,074

The table provides projected amounts for each program, Head Start and/or Early Head Start. The Quality

Improvement allocation above was calculated on Head Start and/or Early Head Start funded slots; however,

grantees operating both programs have flexibility to use any amount of funding on either program, based on

community needs, and not to exceed the total amount available. This flexibility does not extend to COLA

allocations. Please note, allocations in the table are based on annual funding and enrollment levels by program as

of February 2020, and may be subject to change if there are adjustments to these levels.

Submission Requirements

The supplemental application is due May 15, 2020 and must be submitted in the Head Start Enterprise System

(HSES). To apply, please select the Financials tab, Grant Application tab, Fiscal Year 2020, and add the

‘Supplement – COLA and Quality Improvement’ amendment type. No other application type for these funds will

be accepted.

Content of ‘Supplement – COLA and Quality Improvement’ Application

Applications must include separate narratives and detailed budget justifications for each funding type, COLA and

Quality Improvement, and by program, Head Start and/or Early Head Start. Each narrative must begin with a Table

of Contents, use 12 point font, and not exceed 10 pages. All narratives, budget justifications, and other supporting

documentation must be uploaded into respective folders within the Documents tab of the application.

COLA Narrative and Budget Justification

Page 93 of 110

Page 94: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

Grantees must demonstrate:

An increase of no less than two percent of the current pay scale for Head Start/Early Head Start employees,

including unfilled vacancies, subject to the provisions of Sections 653 and 640(j) of the Head Start Act;

The rationale and documentation detailing agency policies and procedures if employees are receiving less

than the two percent COLA or differential COLA increases;

The provision of a no less than two percent increase to all delegate agencies and partners or justification if

less than two percent or differential increases are provided to delegate agencies and partners;

The planned uses for the balance of the COLA funds to offset higher operating costs.•

Sections 653 and 640(j) of the Head Start Act provide further guidance on the uses and limitations of COLA funds.

Sec. 653 restricts compensation to a Head Start employee that is higher than the average rate of compensation

paid for substantially comparable services in the area where the program is operating. Sec. 640(j) of the Act

requires compensation of Head Start employees must be improved regardless of whether the agency has the ability

to improve the compensation of staff employed by the agency that do not provide Head Start services. Grantees

with concerns that staff salaries cannot be increased due to wage comparability issues should ensure public school

salaries for kindergarten teachers are included in their considerations.

Quality Improvement Narrative and Budget Justification

Grantees must demonstrate:

Investments are consistent with Sec. 640(a)(5) of the Act (except programs are not bound by the

requirements that at least 50 percent of the funds be used for staff compensation or that no more than 10

percent of funds be used on transportation. For more information on allowable activities as outlined in the

Act, please see Attachment A);

Investments made in Quality Improvement will be ongoing;•

How investments support children, families, and staff impacted by trauma; or justify the reasoning for

investing in an activity not directly related to addressing trauma (For specific examples, please see

Attachment B or the following resource on Implementing a Trauma-Informed Approach.)

For programs using flexibility in the proportional share of the funding for Head Start and Early Head Start,

justify how that approach fully supports the greatest needs of communities.

Grantees are strongly encouraged to invest this funding into program efforts and activities that help better

incorporate a trauma-informed approach that will support children, families, and staff impacted by adverse

experiences. For more information on trauma and implementation of trauma-informed approaches in Head

Start and Early Head Start programs, including specific examples, please see Attachment B or the following

resource on Implementing a Trauma-Informed Approach. However, grantees do have the flexibility to use these

Quality Improvement funds to meet grantees' most pressing local needs, consistent with Section 640(a)(5) of the

Act. With this funding, grantees should plan for ongoing, sustained investments in quality improvements, while also

acknowledging one-time investments in FY 2020 year may be necessary to sustain ongoing quality improvement.

Budget Requirements

The data entered on the budget tab within the application populates the SF-424A. Grantees are required to include

funds for both COLA and Quality Improvement, and within the appropriate program, Head Start or Early Head Start.

Attachment B

Office of Head Start Guidance on Implementing a Trauma-Informed Approach

Trauma occurs when frightening events or situations overwhelm a child or adult's ability to cope or deal with what

has happened. These kinds of experiences cause an extended stress response and lasting effects on the physical

and mental health of the individual. Trauma can occur in the form of a single event (e.g., a natural disaster or death

of a close family member) or as a series of events or chronic condition (e.g., substance misuse, domestic and

community violence, child abuse and neglect, extended homelessness, or food insecurity). Exposure to trauma is

more common than most people believe. It is also multi-layered, with individual, community, and historical

experiences. In addition to enrolled children and families, Head Start staff may experience trauma as well, along

with stress associated with their role in supporting children and families impacted by trauma. That said, not

everyone exposed to adverse experiences is traumatized.

Head Start and Early Head Start programs play a critical role in buffering the impact of trauma by promoting

resilience for children, families, and staff. The effects of trauma are lessened by protective factors such as strong

parent-child relationships; relationships between staff, children, and families in Head Start and Early Head Start

Page 96 of 110

Page 97: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

programs; and through relationships and supports within the community. Supporting staff wellness is a critical part

of any trauma-informed approach in Head Start programs.

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) defines a trauma-informed approach

as one that: 1) realizes the widespread impact of trauma and understands potential paths for recovery; 2)

recognizes potential signs and symptoms of trauma; 3) responds by fully integrating knowledge about trauma into

program policies, procedures, and practices; and 4) resists re-traumatization of impacted individuals. For more

information, please see SAMHSA’s Concept of Trauma and Guidance for a Trauma-Informed Approach.

Head Start Considerations for Funding Trauma-Informed Approaches

There are many ways Head Start and Early Head Start programs can use Quality Improvement funds to implement

a comprehensive, ongoing trauma-informed approach. The following includes a limited, non-exhaustive list of

examples:

Expand Mental Health Services

Improve preventive mental health screening, assessment, and interventions•

Enhance mental health consultation for staff support and organizational improvement to help identify signs

and symptoms of trauma and integrate supports and services to assist in healing

Ensure mental health consultation and other related intervention services include a trauma-informed

approach and are integrated at intake and orientation

Build and/or enhance collaborative services with local substance abuse and mental health treatment

programs, domestic violence service providers, disaster response programs, child welfare agencies, and

others

Increase Classroom Quality

Hire additional qualified education staff to lower classroom ratios, enhance caregiver-child relationships•

Provide ongoing coaching and support to education staff to address secondary stress and related turnover•

Hire behavioral specialists to support children, classroom staff, and parents•

Improve physical environments and learning spaces throughout the facility to help address the multiple

domains of development and learning that are impacted by trauma

Invest in professional development and staffing patterns that foster continuity of care, and consistent,

predictable, and nurturing environments

Strengthen Family Services

Enhance services that strengthen families, promote relationships, decrease parental stress, and improve

family safety and financial security

Strengthen service provision related to housing access and stability•

Provide enhanced job training, employment, education, and career services•

Help families better access healthcare and nutrition services•

Enhance transportation services to promote more regular participation by children and families in services

designed to support development and learning and address trauma

Improve collaboration efforts and alignment with family-serving agencies to lessen family confusion and

stress in dealing with multiple agencies

Page 98: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

Support a Trauma-Informed Workforce

Provide training on trauma-informed approaches to all staff, governing boards, and Policy Councils, and

ensure training is accompanied with coaching and opportunities for reflective practice and supervision

Support staff capacity with salary increases and additional benefits, such as employee assistance services

and break times

Decrease family service staff and/or home visitor caseloads through hiring of additional qualified staff or

other strategies

Create a Program-Wide Trauma-Informed Environment

Ensure any trauma-informed training implemented at the management-, governing-, or policy-level includes

oversight to examine how the approach is being implemented

Conduct ongoing self-assessment to track program improvements related to integrating a trauma-informed

approach over time

Expand Health Services Advisory Committee efforts to better support health and mental health services for

Grant No. 09CH010460

Dear Head Start Grantee:

The Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020, contains an increase of approximately $550 million for

programs under the Head Start Act for Fiscal Year (FY) 2020. The increase provides $193 million for a cost-of-living

adjustment (COLA) and $250 million for Quality Improvement investments for Head Start. The COLA supports an

increase of two percent for each grantee to increase staff salaries and fringe benefits, and offset higher operating

costs. COLA funds are effective at the start of the FY 2020 budget period and are retroactive if this period has

already begun. Quality Improvement funds are allocated proportionately based on federal funded enrollment, with

additional consideration given to small grantees to allow for a meaningful investment, as permitted by the Act.

The following table reflects the COLA and Quality Improvement increases available for FY 2020.

Funding Type Head Start Early Head StartCost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) $77,404 $23,196

Quality Improvement (QI) $83,524 $34,404

Total Funding $218,528

The table provides projected amounts for each program, Head Start and/or Early Head Start. The Quality

Improvement allocation above was calculated on Head Start and/or Early Head Start funded slots; however,

grantees operating both programs have flexibility to use any amount of funding on either program, based on

community needs, and not to exceed the total amount available. This flexibility does not extend to COLA

allocations. Please note, allocations in the table are based on annual funding and enrollment levels by program as

of February 2020, and may be subject to change if there are adjustments to these levels.

Submission Requirements

The supplemental application is due May 15, 2020 and must be submitted in the Head Start Enterprise System

(HSES). To apply, please select the Financials tab, Grant Application tab, Fiscal Year 2020, and add the

‘Supplement – COLA and Quality Improvement’ amendment type. No other application type for these funds will

be accepted.

Content of ‘Supplement – COLA and Quality Improvement’ Application

Applications must include separate narratives and detailed budget justifications for each funding type, COLA and

Quality Improvement, and by program, Head Start and/or Early Head Start. Each narrative must begin with a Table

of Contents, use 12 point font, and not exceed 10 pages. All narratives, budget justifications, and other supporting

documentation must be uploaded into respective folders within the Documents tab of the application.

COLA Narrative and Budget Justification

Page 100: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

Grantees must demonstrate:

An increase of no less than two percent of the current pay scale for Head Start/Early Head Start employees,

including unfilled vacancies, subject to the provisions of Sections 653 and 640(j) of the Head Start Act;

The rationale and documentation detailing agency policies and procedures if employees are receiving less

than the two percent COLA or differential COLA increases;

The provision of a no less than two percent increase to all delegate agencies and partners or justification if

less than two percent or differential increases are provided to delegate agencies and partners;

The planned uses for the balance of the COLA funds to offset higher operating costs.•

Sections 653 and 640(j) of the Head Start Act provide further guidance on the uses and limitations of COLA funds.

Sec. 653 restricts compensation to a Head Start employee that is higher than the average rate of compensation

paid for substantially comparable services in the area where the program is operating. Sec. 640(j) of the Act

requires compensation of Head Start employees must be improved regardless of whether the agency has the ability

to improve the compensation of staff employed by the agency that do not provide Head Start services. Grantees

with concerns that staff salaries cannot be increased due to wage comparability issues should ensure public school

salaries for kindergarten teachers are included in their considerations.

Quality Improvement Narrative and Budget Justification

Grantees must demonstrate:

Investments are consistent with Sec. 640(a)(5) of the Act (except programs are not bound by the

requirements that at least 50 percent of the funds be used for staff compensation or that no more than 10

percent of funds be used on transportation. For more information on allowable activities as outlined in the

Act, please see Attachment A);

Investments made in Quality Improvement will be ongoing;•

How investments support children, families, and staff impacted by trauma; or justify the reasoning for

investing in an activity not directly related to addressing trauma (For specific examples, please see

Attachment B or the following resource on Implementing a Trauma-Informed Approach.)

For programs using flexibility in the proportional share of the funding for Head Start and Early Head Start,

justify how that approach fully supports the greatest needs of communities.

Grantees are strongly encouraged to invest this funding into program efforts and activities that help better

incorporate a trauma-informed approach that will support children, families, and staff impacted by adverse

experiences. For more information on trauma and implementation of trauma-informed approaches in Head

Start and Early Head Start programs, including specific examples, please see Attachment B or the following

resource on Implementing a Trauma-Informed Approach. However, grantees do have the flexibility to use these

Quality Improvement funds to meet grantees' most pressing local needs, consistent with Section 640(a)(5) of the

Act. With this funding, grantees should plan for ongoing, sustained investments in quality improvements, while also

acknowledging one-time investments in FY 2020 year may be necessary to sustain ongoing quality improvement.

Budget Requirements

The data entered on the budget tab within the application populates the SF-424A. Grantees are required to include

funds for both COLA and Quality Improvement, and within the appropriate program, Head Start or Early Head Start.

Attachment B

Office of Head Start Guidance on Implementing a Trauma-Informed Approach

Trauma occurs when frightening events or situations overwhelm a child or adult's ability to cope or deal with what

has happened. These kinds of experiences cause an extended stress response and lasting effects on the physical

and mental health of the individual. Trauma can occur in the form of a single event (e.g., a natural disaster or death

of a close family member) or as a series of events or chronic condition (e.g., substance misuse, domestic and

community violence, child abuse and neglect, extended homelessness, or food insecurity). Exposure to trauma is

more common than most people believe. It is also multi-layered, with individual, community, and historical

experiences. In addition to enrolled children and families, Head Start staff may experience trauma as well, along

with stress associated with their role in supporting children and families impacted by trauma. That said, not

everyone exposed to adverse experiences is traumatized.

Head Start and Early Head Start programs play a critical role in buffering the impact of trauma by promoting

resilience for children, families, and staff. The effects of trauma are lessened by protective factors such as strong

parent-child relationships; relationships between staff, children, and families in Head Start and Early Head Start

Page 102 of 110

Page 103: CEO Report to the Board of Directors · 06.07 Monterey Early Head Start Startup - Page 28 06.08 Monterey Early Head Start Startup (2) - Page 29 06.09 Monterey Early Head Start Startup

programs; and through relationships and supports within the community. Supporting staff wellness is a critical part

of any trauma-informed approach in Head Start programs.

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) defines a trauma-informed approach

as one that: 1) realizes the widespread impact of trauma and understands potential paths for recovery; 2)

recognizes potential signs and symptoms of trauma; 3) responds by fully integrating knowledge about trauma into

program policies, procedures, and practices; and 4) resists re-traumatization of impacted individuals. For more

information, please see SAMHSA’s Concept of Trauma and Guidance for a Trauma-Informed Approach.
