How would the requested funds be used? Child Care Links is pleased to present this funding request for fiscal year 2010-2011 in the amount of $18,500. Child Care Links is dedicated.to providing resources that strengthen and support children and their families. Within the City of Dublin through 1) retention and training efforts for potential and existing child care professionals; 2) advocacy for quality child care for all children and documentation of child care supply and demand; 3) offering parent education and human services to Dublin families. The projects and services listed below are designed to meet the agency's goal of supporting children, their families and child care providers in the City of Dublin. • Assist potential Dublin family child care home providers and child care center operators in successfully completing the licensing and conditional use permit process by offering technical assistance, training and health and safety incentives. Funds would be used for staff time and purchase of health and safety items such as fire extinguishers, first aid • kits, safety gates and other items necessary to support the child care site's efforts towards meeting health and safety requirements set forth by governing state, county _ and city agencies. This activity currently exists through funding from the City of Dublin. • Provide training in child development, business practices and health and nutrition for Dublin providers in.order to enhance quality care in Dublin. Funds will be used to pay for the Community Specialist in planning the trainings, trainer fees and if appropriate, resource materials to provide workshop attendees. This is an extension of an existing service. • Collaborate and support the Tri-Valley Provider Recognition Program. This program has traditionally been hosted by the Directors of the Valley (DOV) and with contributions from additional funding sources. The event is an opportunity to recognize providers for their valuable service to children and their families in the City of Dublin. Funds will be used to purchase certificates and appropriate incentives for providers in attendance honoring their service to Dublin families. This is an extension of an existing service. • Increase available child care resources in Dublin through participation in planning groups and advocacy efforts. Child Care Links is active in regional, county and state advocacy groups. Funds will be used for the Community Specialist to attend appropriate meetings and pay applicable membership fees. This activity currently exists through funding from the City of Dublin. 1.

Funds will be used for staff time and production of consumer education materials: This activity currently exists through funds from the City of Dublin. • Production of the 11th Annual Tri-Valley Preschool Fair in Spring 2011.This event presents an opportunity for parents to evaluate local preschools and provides an excellent forum for the participating preschools to market their businesses. The Preschool Fair also offers exhibit space to local community agencies, Mothers' Clubs and child-related businesses. Additionally, the Fair will include a health and safety component. This provides an opportunity for parents, child care providers and their children to gather important health and safety information in a fun, child-friendly environment. Funds will be utilized for the salary of the Community Specialist who coordinates this event. Also, funds will be used to purchase materials, advertisement, postage and publication of a Tri Valley Preschool Guide.

How would the PROPOSED PROJECT/PROGRAM address an unmet community need and improve the quality of life for Dublin residents. Why is this project/program needed? One of the biggest challenges parents face when entering into the workforce is finding the right care for their child. Parents search for child care providers who not only meet their scheduling and budgeting needs, but who they feel will also provide a safe, nurturing and learning environment for their children. Child Care Links strives to support and promote quality care for all children to maximize their potential. Similarly, the agency offers support to existing child care providers within the city of Dublin so they may offer the best quality programs. Provider Support The California, Early Care and Education Workforce Study: Licensed Child Care Centers and Family Child Care Providers, Alameda County Highlights, August 2006 states that "...the persistence of high turnover in Alameda County's ECE workforce is of serious concern. The earnings gap between kindergarten and. ECE teachers, in particular, is likely to continue to fuel such turnover particularly among those who have made the greatest investment in education and training..." The study also states that "Teachers with a BA or higher degree are more likely • than others to be over age 50 and approaching retirement..." With these challenges facing the .child care field, efforts to recruit, train and retain child care providers are needed. Child Care Links' staff works closely with potential family child care providers and child care center operators in the licensing and conditional use permit process. As the only state funded resource and referral agency serving the Tri Valley area, the agency proposes to work more closely with the City Planning department to support family child care home providers looking to expand and centers coming into the area. By being involved from the beginning of these processes, the agency will be in a better position to support and help prepare each through the public hearing and community meeting processes. This support is essential in meeting the demand and expanding the child care supply for Dublin residents. According to the Alameda County Early Care and Education Needs Assessment, June 2006, Dublin shows a large school-age, full time child care deficit of 680 slots and an infant child care deficit of over 100 slots. The report also states that 59% of the parents, with children under the age of 6, and 73% of the parents, with children 6 to 17 years of age, are either single working parents or come from two-income households. With a significant percentage of Dublin parents in the workforce, the need for quality, affordable child care is significant. By providing and promoting trainings in child development, socio-emotional development and well-being, business practices and health and nutrition for Dublin child care providers, Child Care Links is able to improve the quality of child care. According to NACCRRA's National Survey ~ ~ of Child Care Resource & Referral Training: Building a Training System for the Child Care Page 1 of 3 Attachment B City of Dublin ' Community Group/Organizational Funding Request Fiscal Year 2010-2011 • Workforce, "Better trained providers are more likely to promote positive growth and ~ development of children." Training and educational opportunities are important to the operation of child care programs and the retention of child care providers. Through the continued support from the City of Dublin, Child Care Links will continue to offer opportunities for ECE professional development for free or at an extremely discounted rate so that cost is not a barrier to on-going trai-Wing. In addition, Child Care Links works in collaboration with the local family child care association, Valley Family Child .Care Association (VFCCA) and the local directors association, Directors of the Valley (DOV), in recognizing child care providers for the work they do with children and their families. NACCRRA states "The child care profession is one of the most underpaid occupations in the country; yet early childhood is the most critical developmental period for all children." The Stress Reduction Workshop, a training and recognition event, is an opportunity for the child care providers to be acknowledged and to celebrate their essential role in the community. _ By providing these services to potential and existing child care providers, the City of Dublin will have a child care system with trained professionals that will meet the demand of the city's working families; and, children will be placed in safe, nurturing and learning environments. Advocacy ~ ~ • As stated previously, according to the California Early Care and Education Workforce Study (August 2006), the average annual salary for childcare centers' highest paid teachers with a BA or higherdegree is $37,544, about $22,500 less than that of the average Alameda County K-12 teacher, who typically works a shorter year and earns better benefits." Child Care Links understands that child care is an essential part of local and state economy. Without child care, . working families will not be able to work and contribute to the city's economy. Agency staff advocate for higher wages, educational stipends and longevity pay for child care providers. Through these advocacy efforts, Dublin residents have access to a stable, long-term, quality child care workforce. Data Collection As the state funded resource and referral agency for the Tri Valley area, Child Care Links collects child care data, and documents changes in child care supply and demand. The agency, through these efforts, is able to provide statistical and other information to help the city plan for child care needs. In addition, this tool is used by potential child care providers in meeting the needs • of the neighborhood where they will be providing care. The agency also produces the annual rate survey which provides information on average child care costs throughout the city of Dublin. This report is used as a tool for child care providers in establishing their costs for services and to provide parents in search of child care with the average cost within their neighborhood. J Page 2 of 3 Attachment B City of Dublin Community Group/Organizational Funding Request . Fiscal Year 2010-2011 ~ Parent Education and Services Child Care Links works toward supporting parents in caring for their children. The agency supports families by offering For Your Information (FYI) handouts to parents at the agency office, community events, during home visits and on the Child Care Links website. Topics include Ages and Stages (how child develop), sibling rivalry, how to handle biting, coping with crisis, to name a few. One of the handouts the staff encourages parents to read is on positive discipline. This is one of the ways Child Care Links promotes parent education in the community. In addition, the agency offers parent education workshops that cover topics such as blended families, early literacy, brain development, nutrition and exercise. These topics are ' examples of how Child Care Links responds to community needs. Additionally, Child Care Links works closely with CaIWORKs participants and income eligible families seeking subsidized child care. When clients come into the office to work with their Eligibility Specialist, parents are counseled on how to choose child care, provided with FYI handouts, offered community resources that meet their needs,, and questions they have regarding the care of their children are processed. Tri-Valley Preschool Fair The annual Tri-Valley Preschool Fair is one way to communicate to parents, guardians and the community the availability of childcare programs and resources. Parents and guardians may use this information to determine which programs meet their standard of quality and affordability. All referral and resource information provided to parents and guardians at the Tri- Valley Preschool Fair is free. Participating preschools benefit from parent/guardian feedback regarding quality and affordability. Parental education and choice motivates preschools to carefully weigh feedback and formulate plans to meet the needs of families in the community. • Page 3 of 3 Attachment B City of Dublin Community Group/Organizational Funding Request Fiscal Year 2010-2011 ATTACHMENT C C.

The public must perceive early childhood education as important and respect the field as professional". • "Child Care and Early Education industry must be recognized as a significant economic • force that helps assure a strong economy, directly by the creation of jobs and indirectly ~ Page 1 of 3 Attachment C City of Dublin Community Group/Organizational Funding Request Fiscal Year 2010-2011 , ( _ by permitting families of all income levels to work"(CDPl.net). Child Care Links believes through advocacy this mission can be achieved. Data Collection • The California Child Care Resource and Referral Network is the oldest, most well- established system of child care Resource and Referral agencies in the United States. The Network combines practical knowledge at the local level with extensive experience in working on state and national child care policy. • Over the past thirty years, California's resource and referral services have evolved from a grassroots effort to help parents find child care, to swell-developed system that supports parents, providers, and local communities in finding, planning for, and providing affordable, quality child care. • As a member of this system, Child Care Links recognizes the importance of providing supply and demand information at the local level to ensure ongoing support for affordable, quality child care for families. • . • The California Child Care Resource and Referral Network provides a comprehensive California statewide report, known as the California Child Care Portfolio, including a narrative highlighting child care supply, demand, and cost issues in the context of current policy, demographic and labor force trends, followed by statewide data on child care supply, demand, and cost, and graphic profiles of child care supply and demand. • Child Care Links provides data for this statewide report which is included as part of Alameda County's overall supply and demand statistics. • The California Early Care and Education Workforce Study: Licensed Child Care Centers and Family Child Care Providers, Alameda County Highlights, August 2006 • Alameda County Early Care and Education Needs Assessment, June 2006; City of Dublin profile Tri-Valley Preschool Fair The Tri Valley Preschool Fair was first started in 2000 by a group of parents who felt a need for a one-stop shop for parents in'search of preschool programs for their children. Though many of the parents used Child Care Links to obtain preschool programs that fit their needs, many of the parents wanted an opportunity to visit with each program efficiently and effectively, thus the birth of the Tri Valley Preschool Fair. Child Care Links has always been involved in the annual event, however, it was not until January 2006 that the agency was approached to solely plan and coordinate the fair. Page 2 of 3 Attachment C City of Dublin Community Group/Organizational Funding Request Fiscal Year 2010-2011 ATTACHMENT D E. Projects/programs must be evaluated to determine if they are being carried out efficiently and if project goals are being met. Please describe how you plan to monitor your project/program's success and impact. Projects/Programs will be evaluated and measured through the use of the following tools: Provider Support • Registration forms and sign-in sheets will measure attendance at all workshops and events. Attendees are asked to state in which city they provide child care. Residential information is also recorded for providers receiving technical assistance whether by phone or in their homes. • Evaluations will measure the effectiveness of the workshop, will provide feedback on the workshop and offer suggestions on future training needs for child care providers. • Child Care Links Annual Survey is mailed to all licensed child care providers on the database and is used not only to update the provider's information on the child care referral database, but the information shared by the provider also states the types of i training and support they are in need of.- • Residents will be identified and recorded by name, date of service and other pertinent information. Child Care Links will be using NACCRRAWare software to record the information: "NACCRRAware is Web-based information management software designed by NACCRRA members to assist Child Care Resource and Referral's in performing their critical role by providing complete and accurate data and statistics. NACCRRAware is referral friendly and allows CCR&Rs( Child Care Resource and Referrals). to collect, report, and distribute information in an efficient, meaningful, and cost-effective manner" (www.naccrra.or~/naccrraware). • Agency staff will document the number of potential and current child care providers who request and receive a home visit and/or utilize the resource lending library. • Agency staff will document the number of Dublin child care providers in attendance at the annual recognition event. In addition, all Dublin child care providers, regardless of attendance at the event, will receive a certificate and appropriate gift honoring their service to children and their families. • Agency staff will document the number of children and parents who attend the Tri - Valley Preschool Fair. This is accomplished by collecting zip codes as parents enter the main hall where preschool programs are tabling. Page 1 of 2 Attachment D • City of Dublin Community Group/Organizational Funding Request Fiscal Year 2010-2011 Reports (as requested) will reflect the status of programs and the number of Dublin residents served. • The projects/programs will be monitored through quarterly reporting. Child Care Links uses a technical assistance tally sheet divided by city and type of caller to document the number and type of calls received from the community. For each reporting period, Child Care Links will include in its city report the number of technical assistance calls specific to the City of Dublin • The report will include child care supply and demand data. • The report will include the annual rate survey once the survey is published. • The report will include, if applicable, anecdotal data received in response to trainings, workshops and other events.

Fax Number: 513-263-3756 Federal Identification Number: 94-2379571 Dear Sir or Madam: This is in response to the amendment to your organization's Articles of Incorporation filed with the state on September 12, 2001. We have updated our records to reflect the name change as indicated above. Our records indicate that a determination letter issued in May 1977, granted your organization exemption from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. That letter is still in effect. Based on information subsequently submitted, we classified your organization as one that is not a private foundation within the meaning of section 509(a) of the Code because it is an organization described in sections 509(a)(1) and 170(b)(1)(A)(vi). This classification was based on the assumption that your organization's Operations would continue as stated . in the application. If your organization's sources of support, or its character, method of operations, or purposes have changed, please let us know so we can consider the effect of the change on the exempt status and foundation status of your organization. Your organization is required to file Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax, only if its gross receipts each year are normally more than $25,000.. If a return is required, it must be filed by the 15th day of the fifth month after the end of the organization's annual accounting period. The law imposes a penalty of $20 a day, up to a maximum of $10,000, when a return is filed late, unless there is reasonable cause for the delay. All exempt organizations (unless specifically excluded) are liable for taxes under the Federal Insurance Contributions Act (social security taxes) on remuneration of $100 or more paid to each employee during a calendar year. Your organization is not liable for the fax imposed under the Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA). Organizations. that are not private foundations are not subject to the excise taxes under Chapter 42 of the Code. However, these organizations are not automatically exempt from other federal excise taxes. Donors may deduct contributions to your organization as provided in section 170 of the Code. Bequests, legacies, devises, transfers, or gifts to your organization or for its use are deductible for federal estate and gift tax purposes if they meet the applicable provisions of sections 2055, 2106, and 2522 of the'Code. a -2- Child Care Links 94-2379571 Your organization is not required to file federal income tax returns unless it is subject to the tax on unrelated business income under section 511 of the Code. If your organization is subject to this tax, it must file an income tax return on the Form 990-T, Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return. In this letter, we are not determining whether any of your organization's present or proposed activities are unrelated trade or business as defined in section 513 of the Code. The law requires you to make your organization's annual return available for public inspection without charge for three years after the due date of the return. If your organization had a copy of its application for recognition of exemption on July 15, 1987, it is also required. to make available for public inspection a copy of the exemption application, any supporting documents and the exemption letter to any individual who requests such documents in person or in writing: You can charge only a reasonable fee for reproduction and actual postage costs for the copied materials. The law does not require you to provide copies of public inspection documents that are widely available, such as by posting them on the Internet (World Wide Web). You may be liable for a penalty of $20 a day for each day you do not make these documents available for public inspection (up to a maximum of $10,000 in the case of an annual return). Because this letter could help resolve any questions about your organization's exempt status and foundation status, you should keep it with the organization's permanent records. If you have any questions, please call us at the telephone number shown in the heading of this letter. This letter affirms your organization's exempt status. Sincerely, John E.

' ;CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT S INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT Board of Directors Child Care Links We have audited the accompanying statement of financial position of Child Care Links as of ' June 30, 2009, and the related statements of activities and changes in net assets, functional expenses, and cash flows for the fiscal year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of Child Care Links' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on ' these financial statements based on our audit. The prior year summarized comparative information was derived from the agency's fiscal year 2008 financial statements and, in our report dated September 11, 2008, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements. ' We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally acce ted in the United p States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government ' Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test ' basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles .used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.' In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, ' the financial position of Child Care Links as of June 30, 2009, and the changes in its net assets and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. ' In accordance with Government Auditin Standards we have also issued our re ort d t g p a ed ' September 11, 2009; on our. consideration of Child Care Links' internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of ' our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of our audit. 2856 Arden Way, Suite 200 ' Sacramento, CA 95825-1379 Tel (916) 481-2856 Fax (916)488-4428 ' http://www.dhscpa.com 4 ' Pa e 2 Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements ' of Child Care Links taken as a whole.

We conducted our ' ~ audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America ,and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. ' Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit, we considered Child Care Links' internal control over financial reporting in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the ' Agency's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Agency's internal control over financial reporting. ' A control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect ' misstatements on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the entity's ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the entity's financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be .prevented or detected by the entity's internal control.

However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, ' we do not express such an opinion.
