| | | | | | | | SUMMARY
In accordance with Welfare and Institutions Code section 18967, Shasta County Child Abuse Prevention Coordinating Council’s (CAPCC) is providing the CTF Annual Report for 2015-2016 for the Board’s review and CAPCC recommends Board approval of the proposed 2016-2017 CTF programs. |
| | | | | | | | DISCUSSION
In 1983, the Legislature passed Assembly Bill 2994, which authorized the creation of a County Children’s Trust Fund in any county in which the board of supervisors establishes a commission, board, or council to coordinate child abuse and neglect prevention and intervention activities. The Board previously established CAPCC as Shasta County’s commission to administer the CTF pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 18965 by adopting Resolution No. 2002-10 on January 15, 2002 and reaffirmed support by adopting Resolution No. 2010-102 on October 19, 2010.
In accordance with Welfare and Institutions Code section 18967, the money in the CTF shall be used to fund child abuse and neglect prevention and intervention programs. The local board of supervisors makes the final decision as to which programs shall be funded. It is recommended that the Board approve the proposed 2016-2017 CTF primary direct service programs listed in the report: community wide child abuse prevention and awareness and education (68% of CTF), child abuse prevention trainings (5% of CTF), Child Death Review Team (7% of CTF), and participation in the Shasta Strengthening Families Collaborative (20% of CTF). A scope of work for 2016-2017 is included on the last page of the report. |
| | | | | | | | ALTERNATIVES
The Board may determine that adjustments should be made to the proposed programs for 2016-2017. |
| | | | | | | | OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT
The CAPCC Board of Directors approved the CTF Annual Report for 2015-2016 and proposed programs for 2016-2017 on August 16, 2016. The Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) Director and HHSA Branch Director for Children’s Services were included in discussions to bring this report to the Board. The recommendation has been reviewed by the County Administrative Office. |
| | | | | | | | FINANCING
Birth certificate fees are collected by the County Recorder and the Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA)-Public Health Branch; a portion of those fees are considered CTF monies and are forwarded to CAPCC on a monthly basis by HHSA. For the past five years, the average annual CTF amount provided to CAPCC is $40,000. There is no General Fund impact associated with the recommendations as no County funds are being requested. |
