Executive Summary:
The mission of the Child Care Planning Council (CCPC) of Sonoma County is to convene and inspire the community through collaboration, leadership, and advocacy to promote and plan for quality child care and development services for the benefit of all children (primarily birth to 12), their families, and Sonoma County.
The CCPC was originally established in 1992 to meet the requirements mandated by the passage of Assembly Bill (AB) 2141, which created local child care and development planning councils to identify local priorities for child care and state preschool expansion funds. The passage of AB 1542, which established the CalWORKs program, also required the County Superintendent of Schools and the Board of Supervisors to designate a local child care planning council to establish priorities for state-funded child care and development services and to develop a comprehensive countywide plan for child care. It is this bill that connects CalWORKs, and the Sonoma County Human Services Department, to the CCPC. On September 29, 1998, the County Superintendent of Schools and the Board of Supervisors designated the Child Care Planning Council of Sonoma County, to be staffed by the Sonoma County Office of Education.
Discussion:
The Child Care Planning Council recommends the appointment and re-appointment of members that meet the legislated membership requirements to the Board of Supervisors and the County Superintendent of Schools to jointly appoint members to the local child care planning council in 5 categories of membership: 1) Consumers, 2) Child Care Providers, 3) Public Agency Representatives, 4) Community Representatives, and 5) Discretionary Appointees of the Board and the Superintendent.
The CCPC bylaws allow up to 35 members, and the current membership is 22. There are usually between 20-25 active members of the CCPC. As required, the CCPC makes every effort to ensure that the ethnic, racial, and geographic composition of members reflects the county. The CCPC Membership Chair and Committee have worked hard over the last year to increase membership. Openings are posted on the CCPC website and the County Boards and Commissions website. Additionally, community recruitment efforts are made on an ongoing basis via press releases, flyers, and individual outreach. Members are appointed for two-year terms, with half of the members’ terms expiring each year. Members who are appointed to a seat before the end of a term shall only serve the remainder of that term.
The Board of Supervisors is requested to appoint John Valdovinos, from the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Santa Rosa, for the Public Agency Seat. This appointment recommendation has been approved by the County Superintendent of Schools.
The Council will have 12 openings for additional members after this appointment is approved.
