FINANCIAL STATEMENT: Jobs Allocation Funds available $ 31, 700 CDBG funds available 50 , 000 Total Funds Available $ 81, 700 DESCRIPTION: Earlier this year, Congress passed the Jobs Bill which allocated $992 . 5 million to local government for the purpose of addressing the high unemployment rate by creating jobs . Of that total, Alameda County will receive $1, 035 , 000 , with approximately $31, 700 available to the City of Dublin. Since these funds are allocated through the Community Development Block Grant Program, any expenditure must meet the criteria of that program. In addition to these criteria, public services may be funded up to a maximum of 50% of a jurisdiction' s allocation. These services would have to benefit low and moderate income or handicapped persons in the community. Any project which the City creates must also create jobs either directly or indirectly in order to be eligible . Once the City has submitted a project for funding, the County will determine if the Community Development Block Grant criteria have been met . Since more than 50% of the households in Census Tract 4502 ( area north of Southern Pacific Railroad Tracks ) are of low and moderate income, projects within that area automatically meet the low and moderate income benefits criteria. Projects elsewhere in the City need to show, by survey, that they benefit low and moderate income persons . The survey would need to show that a minimum of 51% of the people benefitting are of low and moderate income . Projects which benefit the handicapped, also, automatically meet the low and moderate income benefit criteria. Project submittals to the County can be no later than May 13 , 1983 . Prior to submitting such a project, projects should be reviewed by a Citizen ' s Committee, ( i .e . Planning Commission) and the City Council . Contracts for services or for construction must be entered into by June 30 , 1984 with all funds expended by September 30, 1984 . In addition to the Jobs Bill Allocation, the City has also been allocated $50 , 000 in Community Development Block Grant funds . These funds must be committed by March 1, 1984 , and could be combined with the jobs bill alocation funds to fund a project at a total cost of $81, 700 . Staff has identified two projects which meet the Community Development Block Grant criteria and has received requests from three groups for funding under this program. These projects are identified as follows : 1 . Dougherty Road Curb, Gutter, and Drains--Installation of curb, gutter, and drains along west side of Dougherty Road fronting approximately 60% of the Arroyo Vista development. Cost - $81, 700 . 2 . Arroyo Vista Rain Gutters--Installation of rain gutters on Arroyo Vista housing units . Cost - $27 , 000 . --------------------------------------------------------=------------ COPIES TO: Mike Parsons Evelyn King / Suzann Shepard ITEM NO. � � Donni Miller Agenda Statement -- Federal Jobs Bill/Community Dev.

Kaleidoscope Center began operating in November of 1981 under the name of Tri-Valley Stepping Stones, and the name was changed in January 1983. Services to date include an after-school recreational day care program for disabled youth and a weekly parent education and sharing group. Currently Kaleidoscope Center is located in one leased classroom from Murray School District. Enrollment is limited to ambulatory youth between the ages of 5 and 14. There is need in the Tri-Valley area for the same service for youth 15 to 21 and for children with more involved handicaps. Kaleidoscope Center must find a lard r facility that can be made accessible in order to meet these community needs. There are no sites that have been found to date by Kaleidoscope Center that are already handicapped accessible. Project Title R--trofiting program site to be handicapped accessible.

CriITER Page 2 All of the clients of Kaleidoscope Center are and will be handicapped. With an accessible site it will broaden the type of disability it can serve and increase the effectiveness of training in self-help and prevocational skills. Current enrollment is 20 youth. The number to be served will depend on the size of the facility leased. The goal is to double the present space and apply for a day care license to serve 40 clients aged 3 and older. The percentage of low and moderate income clients will be generally the same as that for the Livermore-Pleasanton-Dublin area. Kaleidoscope Center does adhere to a policy of non-discrimination. Ability of Kaleidoscope Center to Undertake This Project The Board of Directors and Staff of Kaleidoscope Center are committed to the expansion of services to the disabled youth and their families of the Dublin- Livermore-Pleasanton area.

The child no longer fits in with the younger children on the block. By this age negative behaviors are less tolerated by parents and society, adding stress to parents' lives. Day care providers rarely will care for a child past the age of 10 while a disabled child may need care throughout his teen years.

Describe how this project meets one of the followinq objectives: i s 1 . The need to revitalize designated target areas by constructing Public j Works Improvements; I I f 2. The need to provide Nobility Improvements for the Handicapped and to 1 provide Public Facilities to serve target areas; or i i 3. The need to increase Employment Opportunities for low and moderate income residents. This project will provide employment for lo... or moderate income persons. Since January 1983, increases in client load have added demands on the program administration that have not been met or have been met by a variety of volunteers. To insure accountability to Kaleidoscope Center, these bookkeeping, secretarial, and program development functions reed to be carried out by paid staff. Until the number of clients increases by another 50%, there will not be sufficient funds to cover these staffing costs. Since March 15, 1983, Kaleidoscope Center's enrollment has surpassed t: e 1 to 6 ratio set by State guidelines. Due to lack of funds, the Center has been unable to fund the necessary additional Aide position to bring it into compliance with the State. The Center is unable to accept additional clients until that position is funded and filled. C. Describe the extent to which the project would benefit low and moderate income persons or handicapped persons, compared to the total number of persons benefiting from the project . low and moderate income is defined as less than 80 percent of the median income for Alameda County. All of the clients served by Kaleidoscope Center are dis-Wbled youth ages 5 to 18 and their families. The Aide's responsibilities will be to work directly with these youth in a recreational day-care setting. The bookkeeper, Secretary, and Program Developer will be working additionally with the families of these youth and the community in education, advocacy, dissemination of information, etc. in regard to client needs and services. in -eneral, the curiant number of low and moderate income persons benefiting is the same percentage as that for the valley as a whole.

SPECIAL WORK ASSIGNMENTS In many of my job assignments I have taken the initiative to design and implement educational processes and programs. Some examples include: • In 1969 1 instituted a model program for kindergarten reading readiness. This district was among the top ten elementary school districts in the state. . In 1973-74, as an Instructional Specialist, I designed and presented in-service education in affective areas of education for teachers and students. I also developed and wrote an extensive program in Early Childhood Education. The State Department of Education commended the program as being the most innovative, comprehensive program submitted. • I have utilized my writing skills in course design, preparation of federal programs, creating newsletters, brochures, advertising copy, schedules, newspaper articles, manu- scripts, theses, poetry. . Some of the courses I have designed and presented for adults include: - Affirmation Training - The Emotional Impact of Mobility - Understanding the Creative Process - Building Self-Esteem - Creative Writing PERSONAL INTERESTS Among my interests are the study of aging in our society, family recovery from alcoholism, and mind patterning. Three things which bring me the most excitement and joy are generating creative ideas, developing learning processes and courses, and teaching adults. To relax, I enjoy sewing and clothes design, art, writing, meditation, biking, and camping.

Valley Counseling Services is a non-profit agency which is dedicated to providing low-cost counseling for the Tri-Valley communi- ties. i Our client fees range from $3-$10 per week per family. We also have scholar- ships available for those who are unable to pay. We are staffed by trained lay-counselors, MFCC interns and one PhD intern. All of our staff "are volunteers and are supervised by psychologists who also volunteer their services. j At the present the center is seeing 25-30 clients per week. However, we have 1 needed to put all new clients on a two to three week waiting list as we are I getting more intakes than we hate available counselors. This seems to be because we offer the lowest fees for counseling services in the area. We would like to request a grant of $24,600.which would cover the following: 1) Full-time Director's Position. We presently have funds only to hire j a director on a part-time (one day a week) basis. We would like to . be able to fund a full-time director's position. We feel that if we could fund this position for 1 year, we could get Valley Counseling Services to a position where we could generate on-going funding. A j full-time director's position would be $19,200. ! 2)_ Part-time Psychological Trainer and Consultants. We see this fund- . ing to be used to pay for on-going training seminars, workshops and consultation on specific counseling on problem areas for our lay- counselors. The training would be done bi-monthly. We would like to request funding for 2 years of training and consultation. There- fore, we would need $4,000 for this area. CONSULTANTS ARLYS NORCROSS.

Thus, the third area we would like to request funding would be toward a scholarship fund. We feel a grant of $1,400 would provide one year of scholarships for families who cannot afford to pay our fees. i We greatly appreciate your consideration of these requests. Please feel free to contact us if you need more information. i Sincerely, Donni Miller Director of Valley Counseling Services DM/jr i J 1 i i I
