Registration Services: The Registration Department offers three main services to Child Care Providers: Processing Initial Family Day Care (FDC) & School Age Child Care (SACC) Applications, Processing FDC & SACC Renewal Applications and performing inspections of FDC/SACC Program. During the period of time starting July 1st, 2020 to June 30th, 2021: We served a total of 10 initial FDC applicants (5 - FDC Approved and 5 - FDC Withdrawn), and 24 SACC applicants (14 - SACC approved and 10 -SACC Withdrawn). The challenge with initial applications has been applicant follow through. Many applicants applied and found that they could not meet OCFS guidelines in the required time. In addition, there were delays in programs receiving required inspections due to COVID restrictions and a reduced number of staff in the Office for Children and Family Services. The Registration Department also renewed 18 active FDC & SACC Programs. We assisted them in the process of renewing their registrations (9-FDC and 9-SACC). There were several closures in this period due to reduced enrollment caused by the pandemic, 17 FDC programs and 9 SACC programs closed. The Registration Department performed 143 inspections of FDC/SACC Program (74-FDC and 69-SACC). All inspections were conducted and closed within the approved timeframes. The greatest challenge in inspecting child care programs during this period was access to the programs. Many programs were closed due to COVID and SACC programs in schools were not operating and did not have access to the buildings. In addition, OCFS placed restrictions on the types of inspections that could be conducted until September 2021. Legally Exempt Services: The Legally Exempt Department offers two main services to legally exempt child care providers. The department is contracted to process initial applications, renewal applications and conduct annual inspections. During the period of time starting July 1, 2020 to June 30, 2021: We processed 159 legally exempt provider applications. We accomplished our goals due to the work efficiency in the department. The challenge with processing the initial enrollment applications has been the timeframes and high turnover among providers. The challenge in processing the renewal enrollment applications has been the delay in providers submitting the renewal material on time and changes that are needed to be made to the enrollment. The Legally Exempt Department could not perform inspections due to COVID restrictions. Child and Adult Care Food Program: The Child and Adult Care Food Program helps providers pay for meals and snacks served to children up to age 13 enrolled in their child care programs. As the sponsor of the contract we are responsible for determining if meals served meet nutritional requirements, conducting monitoring visits, and providing training to participating providers. During the period of July 1, 2020-June 30, 2021 CACFP staff processed 2,493 menus, reimbursing providers for the healthy meals and snacks served to children. The CACFP staff conducted 192 food monitoring visits and added 24 new providers to the program. 2404355 1098274 101520 Training and technical assistance to improve child care quality * 3,343 early care and education professionals attended 210 Council workshops * 22 students were enrolled in the Council's eCDA program (on-line CDA). * In October 2020, 22 early childhood professionals enrolled in the Council's 2020-21 Virtual Infant Toddler/ Family Child Care CDA program.

The project was created to promote early literacy for low-income families. This year, families were each provided a home library of 6-8 age appropriate books and a book bag. The families were also given literature on reading at home with young children. Participating programs received an assortment of diverse books for their program libraries. * Two additional programs were funded by the Sexauer Foundation. 1) In the summer of 2020, 50 family child care programs participated in a training and technical assistance project, Joy of Summer. Participating programs attended virtual training sessions, offered in Spanish and English, on topics related to summer activities.

This program existed before Cares 3 began, but mostly catered to the same population 71 161269 0 Cate Riley Scholarships provide cash assistance to those interested in becoming child care specialists. 5 10000 0 Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 The Director of Finance and Administration and the Program Directors meet regularly to review the financial information, to ensure that only those expenses that are for the particular project or activity are included in the budget to actual reports, to determine if all activities are on track to completion or if any budget modifications are needed, and to make any adjustments that are necessary to properly report the financial information back to the grantor. The finance department prepares all claims but one (CACFP claims are prepared by program personnel) as required by the agreement either on a cost reimbursement basis or performance of contract basis. Beginning in August of 2020, the Council obtained a state contract to use federal Cares Act funding to assist child care providers with reimbursements of certain expenses. This program was known as CARES 2. The Council's Executive Director, Director of Finance and Administration, and Assistant Director of Administration reviewed applications and receipts for 200 child care programs to help them claim reimbursements of eligible expenses. Beginning in December of the Council participated in Cares 3, in which the Council's resource and referral department reviewed applications for families of essential workers who were eligible to receive child care subsidies based upon income and other criteria. Disbursements for both programs were done through the Council's finance department.

Form 990, Part III, Line 2 Beginning in August of 2020, the Council administered federal funds through the CARES Act to provide expense reimbursements for certain expenses to child care providers. This program was known as Cares 2. The expenses and grants associated with this program are allocated to the various departments in this section so as to be consistent with the functional expense report in the audited financial statements. Beginning in October of 2020, the Council administered a scholarship program using CARES Act funds. This program was known as Cares 3 and is included in this section as a separate scholarship accomplishment. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The Director of Finance and Administration (Director of F & A) prepares a draft of the Form 990 and forwards it to the Council's independent auditors, the Board Treasurer, the Board Finance Committee, and the Executive Director for review and approval. Any questions are discussed and resolved and the Director of F & A makes all changes and resubmits to the audit firm, the Board Treasurer, the Board Finance Committee, and the Executive Director for final approval and then approval by the full Board and signing by the Executive Director. All responses and documentation of preparation of the Form 990 are maintained in the Director of F & A's office. The Form 990 often cannot be filed by the filing deadline, so the independent audit firm or Director of F & A submits an automatic extension request to the IRS. Final copies of the Form 990 are distributed via e-mail to all Board members. If there are any major discrepancies noted or changes requested by the Board Treasurer, the Executive Director, independent auditors, Director of F & A or any Board member, an amended return will be filed. The Council's Form 990 will be available upon request to those who require it. In December 2020 the Council received a significant donation from a donor who wishes to remain anonymous. For this reason, the identity of the donor has been redacted from the copy of Schedule B that was sent to the Board. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c The policy recognizes that a conflict of interest may exist whenever the personal or professional interest of a director or officer are potentially at odds with the Council's. The policy has in place mechanisms that identify and resolve matters to ensure that any such transactions are in the best interest of the Council over and above the interest of the Interested Party where the Interested Party is a director, officer or an immediate family member of a director or officer. A conflict of interest is defined as when actions, contracts, transactions or other dealings between the Council and an Interested Party or a Related Party (defined as any party, group or organization to which an Interested Party has an allegiance or affiliation) may result in a personal benefit to the Interested Party. A conflict of interest may also exist when an Interested Party serves as director, officer or staff member of an organization which competes with the Council or when an Interested Party or Related Party aids, financially or otherwise, such competing organization. Upon election or appointment as an officer or director, all officers and directors shall disclose any relevant interest of an Interested Party or Related Party as they relate to such director or officer which may represent a potential conflict of interest. The incoming officer or director will be provided with a copy of the conflict of interest policy. This disclosure statement is updated at least annually. If any question arises in the mind of any director or officer of the Council as to a potential conflict between his or her own individual interest and those of an immediate family member or those of a Related Party and the interest of the Council, full disclosure of all facts pertaining to the potential conflict shall be made to the Board of Directors. Fact gathering and subsequent review by the Board will determine whether or not an actual conflict exists or would occur. The potential conflict of interest will be addressed by the Council Board as follows: The Board of Directors of the Council shall investigate the potential conflict; The director/officer to whom the potential conflict relates shall not attempt to influence other Directors regarding the matter; The director/officer to whom the potential conflict relates may offer factual information to the Board or Committee, but no director/officer shall vote on their own matter although they may participate in the discussion regarding their exclusion; The Board shall also determine whether or not it can obtain a more advantageous transaction or arrangement with reasonable efforts from a person or entity that would not be a conflict of interest. The discussion and outcome of the investigation and due diligence performed by the Board will be recorded in the minutes of the meeting of the Board or Committee and will include the names of the persons who disclosed or were found to have a financial interest in connection with the conflict, the names of the persons who were present for discussions and votes relating to the transaction or arrangement, the content of the discussion, including any alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement, and a record of any votes taken in connection with the discussion. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 The Council's salary guidelines are updated every few years by the management team by: (1) factoring in cost of living adjustments since the previous salary increases; (2) updating and standardizing job descriptions; (3) clustering jobs in five to six salary ranges; (4) determining the clusters through a standardized rating of accepted job factors: knowledge, problem-solving, supervision, latitude of decision-making impact, external contacts/relationships, policy involvement and scope of activity. Consensus is then reached by the management team on the job factor rating of each job description and the arrangement of all rated job descriptions into six clusters with salary ranges for each, intended to be guidelines subject to the availability of funding. The Council last updated these guidelines in 2017-18, and has just begun the process to update them once again in 2022. In addition, periodically over the past eight years, as fiscal conditions have allowed, there have been across the board increases to all salaries in an effort to make salaries more competitive. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 The Council's governing documents, conflict of interest policy, and financial statements are available to the public upon request.
