Oklahoma Community Service Commission Little Dixie Head Start/Early Head Start – AmeriCorps Program New Formula Grant: Year 1 - Grant Cycle: (2019-2020 Program Year) Amount Requested: $178,000

The mission of the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) is to improve lives, strengthen communities, and foster civic participation through service and volunteering. Within the AmeriCorps competition, CNCS especially seeks to prioritize investment in the following focus areas: Disaster services; Economic and Workforce Development; Education; Energy Conservation; Health and Aging; and Veterans and Military families.

Each child in Head Start and Early Head Start has an Individual Development Plan (IDP) which includes goals for achieving skills the child has not yet mastered, but needs to master before entering Kindergarten. Each time a child masters one of the goals on his/her IDP, a new goal is then added to be worked on, so that the child has at least three active goals at all times. Thus, LDCAA will utilize AmeriCorps members to serve as IDP Coaches in LDCAA's Head Start and Early Head Start centers. Under the direction of the classroom teacher, each AmeriCorps member will work with the Head Start or Early Head Start children on their IDP goals. Examples of a child's IDP goals could be: Trace a diamond shape; Recite numbers 1 - 10; Points to 8 colors; Hops on both feet for 6 feet; Gets up from floor without using hand; or selects pictures related to a sentence read by the teacher. The AmeriCorps members will provide one-on-one attention to Head Start/Early Head Start children to help them master school readiness goals such as these. With the increased one-on-one attention toward mastering their IDP goals, the children will attain their IDP goals faster throughout the year and will attain a higher degree of school readiness by the end of the school year.

With the Board’s approval, we are requesting $178,000 from the Oklahoma Community Service Commission for a New Year 1Formula AmeriCorps Grant project. If funded, this award will fully fund the AmeriCorps Program for a period of one year. Through the grant project, LDCAA will utilize 28 900-hour AmeriCorps members to serve as IDP Coaches in LDCAA's Head Start classrooms and its Early Head Start centers. AmeriCorps members will serve these locations, which are spread out across Choctaw, McCurtain, and Pushmataha Counties. AmeriCorps members will provide six hours of service a day during days that pre-school is in session. Item O3 Page 2 of 2

ONE-TIME CHC SURGE AUGMENTATION FOR SENIOR CORPS GRANTEES

On November 15, 2018, the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) announced that its new National Service Criminal History Check vendor, Truescreen, is now available to all grantees. Truescreen provides compliant State and NSOPW checks to grantees in all states and territories. Together, Truescreen and Fieldprint, CNCS’ pre-existing vendor for FBI checks, provide grantees with fast and compliant checks that meet all of the CNCS’ Criminal History Check Requirements. We strongly recommend that grantees take advantage of the services these vendors provide. To incentivize the immediate use of these vendors, Senior Corps is offering One-Time CHC Surge Grant Augmentations to grantees that begin to use these vendors immediately. In addition, CNCS has established an exemption period ending on March 31, 2019, that will allow grantees to re-check all individuals working or serving in covered positions through Truescreen and Fieldprint, without the risk of cost disallowance.

The One-Time CHC Surge Augmentation: Implementation Details 1. Grantees may request funding to: o Use Truescreen and Fieldprint to recheck the files of any individuals who are currently working or serving in covered positions. These checks are included in the exemption period referenced above. To be eligible for both the augmentation and exemption, checks must be conducted with Truescreen and Fieldprint. o Check any individuals entering work or service for the first time during their current grant year through Truescreen or Fieldprint. 2. Grantees must indicate their intent to take advantage of this opportunity by emailing their CNCS State Office as soon as possible, but no later than December 7, 2018. (See below for detailed instructions.) Senior Corps anticipates being able to accommodate all requests received by this date. 3. Funds may be used for: o Paying for the checks directly through Truescreen and/or Fieldprint, as necessary, o Offsetting administrative costs associated with the time, labor and logistics of rechecking individuals in covered positions. o After all anticipated checks have been completed through the vendors, remaining funds can be used for other allowable costs on the grant. 4. The minimum augmentation amount is $500. If more than $500 is required, the amount of funding available to a specific grant will correspond to an estimate of the cost of a check for an individual with recurring access in that state, rounded up to the nearest hundred. Note that the cost of these checks varies state-by-state.

Source: https://www.nationalservice.gov/programs/senior-corps/manage-senior-corps-grants/one-time-chc-surge- augmentation-senior-corps Item O4 Page 4 of 4

For example, in the state of Alabama, the total cost of an NSOPW and Alabama state check run through Truescreen and an FBI check run through Fieldprint is $54.00. An organization that seeks to check 95 individuals in Alabama may request $5,200. ($54.00 x 95 = $5,130, or $5,200 rounded up to the nearest hundred). If you opt-in to this opportunity, your CNCS State Office will indicate the augmentation amount of funding you are eligible to receive in a formal invitation letter.

5.

(45 CFR 2551.92, 45 CFR 2552.92, 45 CFR 2553.72) o For all grant programs: Accepting these funds will not result in an increase in the number of VSYs or unduplicated volunteers required to be programmed in work plans associated with National Performance Measure outputs or outcomes. o For the FGP and SCP Programs: Accepting these funds will not result in an increase in the amount of funding that grantee must spend to the direct benefit of the volunteer (also known as the Direct Benefit Ratio rule or 80/20 rule). (45 CFR 2551.92, 45 CFR 2552.92) o The waivers above cannot be applied to any requirements of the initial grant award (also known as the baseline funding amount).

Funding Entity: Oklahoma CASA Association Funding Opportunity: FY 2019 Base Grant Award Amount: $31,214 Agency Program: Little Dixie CASA

The Oklahoma CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) Association has made available Base Grant funds for member Oklahoma CASA programs in good standing. Eligible programs must have 15 active cases; “active” means that a volunteer must be court-appointed and working that case. The Little Dixie CASA Program has made great strides in number of volunteers recruited, trained and available for appointment. For FY 2018, Little Dixie CASA had 61 active cases—a large leap from the caseload of 15 only four years ago. This is significant as available funding is determined based on each program’s caseload and number of volunteers.

The Little Dixie CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) Program has been serving abused and/or neglected children since 1997. The program began with a small budget in Pushmataha County but expanded later to include Choctaw and McCurtain Counties as well. Little Dixie CASA recruits volunteers to be the voice of children in situations of abuse or neglect who have been made wards of the court. Our CASA volunteers make sure the best interests of each child are considered. These trained volunteers are assigned cases by a court judge, and they gather information about their cases in order to present informed recommendations to the court. The goal of Little Dixie CASA is to continue to expand the program and recruit more volunteers so that every abused or neglected child in the District Court system will be represented by a CASA worker.

We are asking the Board’s approval to accept $31,214 in Base Grant funding from the Oklahoma CASA Association. This one-year grant will be used to provide salary support for the Program Director and part-time Advocate Coordinator as well as associated staff and program operating expenses, as detailed in the following budget breakdown.

Funding Entity: Oklahoma CASA Association Funding Opportunity: FY 2019 Small Marketing/Awareness Grant Award Amount: $5,000 Agency Program: Little Dixie CASA

Little Dixie CAA is requesting the Board’s approval to accept $5,000 in Small Marketing/Awareness Grant funding from the Oklahoma CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) Association. The project will closely align with the Oklahoma CASA Strategic Growth Plan and the goal to facilitate targeted marketing efforts aimed at volunteer recruitment within Southeast Oklahoma. As such, the purpose of the project will be to increase community support and volunteers for Little Dixie CASA by enhancing efforts to further boost awareness and visibility of the program within the local area.

The Small Marketing/Awareness Grant project will focus on the use of billboard signage and paid ad space (digital and print) within Choctaw, McCurtain, and Pushmataha Counties to promote the Little Dixie CASA Program. In addition to the marketing message/media developed by the State Office to capture the attention of the viewer (e.g. I am for the child™ platform and other related materials), the billboard and paid advertising will also contain contact information for Little Dixie CASA (phone number, website, etc.). The billboard space will be rented for a period of seven months; paid digital and print advertising will occur at a frequency of at least four times per month for the various media outlets utilized. The program will utilize print advertising in local newspapers, as well as paid social media advertising and boosted posts, to increase awareness of CASA. These distinct marketing platforms will work to reach a diverse demographic of potential volunteers.

Funding Entity: Oklahoma CASA Association Funding Opportunity: FY 2019 Invitational Grant – Priority Area Marketing Award Amount: $28,100 Agency Program: Little Dixie CASA

Since 2017, Little Dixie CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) has received invitational grant funding to focus on television and digital advertising/marketing within Oklahoma CASA Association Priority Areas, with the intent of increasing awareness of and support for CASA within local communities. Little Dixie CASA has again received funding for this initiative; therefore, we are asking the Board’s approval to accept $28,100 in grant funding for Priority Area Marketing from the Oklahoma CASA Association.

The areas to benefit from the project will be the southern/southeastern Oklahoma counties of: Atoka, Bryan, Carter, Choctaw, Coal, Johnston, Love, Marshall, Pontotoc, and Pushmataha. These 10 counties are considered Priority Areas by OCASAA as they fall outside the scope of the Association’s statewide advertising coverage area through Cox Communications. The proposed television and digital campaign will utilize the proven I am for the child™ platform media, as well as any related state office produced materials, in order to promote a uniform appearance across the state and project area. The campaign will include paid localized television spots and paid digital ad space within the KTEN Media brands (ABC and KTEN NBC), whose viewing area encompasses the targeted 10-county region. With a Designated Market Area of over 120,000 television households and the ability to advertise 24 hours a day, seven days a week to anyone in the world, awareness of the CASA Program within Oklahoma and the local targeted communities is expected to grow exponentially.

The following local CASA Programs/associated priority areas will directly benefit from the marketing and awareness strategies to be implemented through the proposed project: . Little Dixie CASA (Choctaw and Pushmataha Counties); . Counseling Inc. CASA (Atoka and Coal Counties); . Bryan County CASA (Bryan County); . CASA of Southern Oklahoma (Carter, Johnston, Love, and Marshall Counties); and . 22nd Judicial District CASA (Pontotoc County).

The activities described above, to be provided through a contract with KTEN Media during the period of October 1, 2018 - September 30, 2019, will work to raise programmatic visibility and awareness within the targeted 10-county area. The total cost will equal $28,100 over the project year; the following is a breakdown of the proposed costs to conduct the project: . Television Marketing/Advertising - $22,100 (KTEN and ABC Texoma) . Digital Marketing/Advertising - $6,000 (KTEN.com site, geo-targeted tracking).

Funding Entity: Oklahoma Department of Education Funding Opportunity: Child and Adult Care Food Program Grant Award Amount: $1,275,455.36 (Program Operations – $171,455.36; Daycare Home Meal Reimbursement – Up to $1,104,000) Agency Program: Child and Adult Care Food Program

Little Dixie Community Action Agency has operated a Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) since 1984. CACFP is a Federal food program that provides money for serving nutritious meals to enrolled children in licensed family day care homes. LDCAA provides the CACFP program in 37 counties in Oklahoma, and is one of the largest sponsors in the state. Through this program, our agency provides daycare home providers with training in nutrition, child development, safety, and sanitation. The program also provides daycare home providers with a reimbursement check based on meals served, up to a maximum of two main meals and one snack per child per day. This ensures that the children in these daycare homes receive nutritious meals. By providing free and low-cost food to child care providers, CACFP helps to ensure that children are well fed, able to concentrate, and ready to learn. As a result, providers in the program are being reimbursed for meals served to more than 3,000 children daily. Because the program works with a large number of daycare home providers, CACFP staff must be diligent and meticulous when it comes to management of the program and reporting. The day care homes regularly submit claims for reimbursement to the program, which must process the paperwork efficiently and correctly. LDCAA’s CACFP staff conducts reviews and edit checks of day care homes at least three times a year to negate any compliance problems. The program is reviewed biennially by the State Department of Education, which administers the program in Oklahoma.

With the Board’s approval, we are asking to accept a CACFP Grant award from the Oklahoma Department of Education in the amount of $1,275,455.36. Of this total, $171,455.36 will be used for training daycare home providers, site visits to monitor and assist these providers, and other operational budget needs. In addition, up to $1,104,000 will be used for food reimbursement claims filed by participating daycare home providers.

The contract agreement period for the program will be October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2019. CNP Site User Alerts Page 1Item of 1 P6 Page 2 of 2

Program Summary Head Start/Early Head Start/Early Head Start-Child Care December 11, 2018

Eligibility, Recruitment, Selection, Enrollment & Attendance Little Dixie Head Start is serving 3 and 4 year old children within 29 classrooms in the tri-county service area with a current enrollment of 429 children. There are currently 48 children, aged birth to 3, enrolled among the 3 Early Head Start centers and 132 children enrolled in the Early Head Start- Child Care locations. We are currently at our fully funded enrollment, but continue to accept applications for all 3 programs. The program is preparing for several children to age out of the birth to three centers. In addition to their regular recruitment activities for November, the Family Advocates worked at recruiting children during the “Dr. Seuss” Family Fun Day that was held at the Kiamichi Technology Center in Hugo. Recruitment activities will continue throughout the year to ensure all enrollment opportunities are filled as they occur. Partnering child care facilities are also actively recruiting children for the program.

Family & Community Engagement For the month of October we had143 parents that participated in the Parent Meeting with a total of 627 for the current school year. Family Advocates are working on FPA’s with families, which is at an 88% of all families. In the Parent Ready to Read in September we had 108 with a total of 236 people volunteering to read to classrooms since August of this year. The Love and Logic parenting curriculum is doing well and I’m very optimistic that we are going to have more parents participate. Police officers are still coming out to center. #books building bridges. For the month of October, which was Financial Literacy month we had speakers go out to several centers and speak with parents at parent meetings.

Father Involvement The activities for the month of October were making crafts for Halloween, fall, or something similar. We had fathers/grandfather/uncles and other adults that were there for dad’s day, for the month of October the totals were 195 with 80 being a male figure. There were also 22 dads/father figures that participated in October parent meetings, with a year to date total of 99 year to date.

Nutrition The Nutrition Specialist and Assistant has sent out BMI (Body Mass Index) letters to each Head Start Center with data that was collect from August 1st - October 15th, 2018 on the child's Height and Weight calculated into BMI. This information can be obtained by a well child visit that a child may have had during this time or from teaching staff and family advocates. The Specialist and Assistant traveled to Savannah, Georgia where they attended an in-depth training "Managing Comprehensive Health Services in Head Start and Early Head Start: Nutrition, Medical, Oral, and Mental Health." Specialist and Assistant are excited to share information and resources with staff about training topics which include "Pediatric Nutrition, Hot Topics", "Data Management in Nutrition", "Infant and Toddler Nourishing," "Regulations and Mandates."

Education The School Readiness Team met on Thursday, November 29, 2018 at KTC. Policy council members, principals from local schools, and Head Start staff were in attendance. A presentation was given to inform members of the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework, Little Dixie School Readiness Goals, curriculum & assessment, data, and the ELQA assessment. Each semester, teachers meet with parents/families at Home Visits and Parent/Teacher Conferences. Many teachers will be completing Parent/Teacher conferences during November and December. This may be a time to review children’s progress and set new IDP goals. Parent/Teacher conferences are a set time, but please feel free to contact your child’s teacher at any time to discuss concerns you may have regarding your child’s school readiness.

AmeriCorps Program The Little Dixie School Readiness AmeriCorps program is actively working to recruit and place all 28 members throughout the three county service area within the Head Start and Early Head Start classrooms. Program Director Darla Galyon has worked to complete program reports the Oklahoma AmeriCorps State Office has requested to gain a holistic understanding of children that are positively affected by Little Dixie receiving this grant. Head Start/Early Head Start/Early Head Start-CC Director Darla Galyon also attended an AmeriCorps Program Director’s training in Norman at the AmeriCorps State Office that highlighted the 2019-2020 NOFO update and changes. The AmeriCorps Specialist position is currently open and the program is looking to fill this position and include them in developing the next grant application that will be underway very soon.

Health During the month of November we are competing Folder checks for Early Head Start and Early Head Start Child Care. Health Service Advisory Meet and elected new officers. We will meet again in April or May of 2019. We have also been ordering supplies for our center to upgrade materials for their continuing education. It has been a busy month since we are celebrating Thanksgiving with our families and reflecting on all that we have to be thankful for.

Professional Development In November we were able to bring our new Professional Development Specialist to the management team. Time has been spent training the new specialist on the duties and responsibilities related to the component area, this process will continue for the next several months to ensure a smooth transition between specialists. October in-service rosters were completed this month for staff to receive training hours in order to renew and obtain PD Ladders and Director Credentials required by state licensing regulations. Several staff members are working to complete their CDA credentials within the required timeframes. All staff members are on target to have credentials awarded in the require timeframe.

Disabilities/Mental Health/Transition Currently, we have 16 Early Head Start-Child Care children that have been identified by Sooner start as eligible for services. They are receiving services at the EHS-CC centers. Ten other EHS-CC Item X Page 5 of 11

children are in the referral process to Sooner Start. Sooner Start Staff are also providing services to seven Early Head Start children and have 6 referrals for Sooner Start.

There have been 19 other referrals made to the public schools from the screenings that have been done in the areas of vision, hearing, speech, and the developmental areas of motor skills, communication, problem solving, personal-social and social-emotional skills.

The Mental Health Consultant is currently conducting classroom observations in each classroom the first semester of the 2018-19 schoolyear. Parents can request services and referrals can be made for evaluation and counseling for those children. Parent Consents for Referral have been signed by parents of three children and referrals have been made to the Mental Health Consultant.
