1

Mr. Benitez arrived.
c) Resignation of Dr. Désir.

ACTION: Judge Dishowitz nominated Ms. Gorsuch to hold the position of CSC Secretary. The nomination was seconded by Dr. Thaqi and passed with no opposing votes.
IV. President’s Report:
a) Good of the Order:
Ms. Arenberg Seltzer shared Kidvision DVDs, which had been distributed to VPK teachers, that contained an introduction she had taped on behalf of CSC.
Scholastic will hold their annual conference this September in Fort Lauderdale with the theme of Family Engagement. CSC, the Early Learning Coalition of Broward County (ELC), United Way of Broward County, and Hands On Broward are coordinating a service project focused on family engagement for Scholastic employees while they are in Fort Lauderdale for their conference. Preceding the Scholastic Day of Service, community volunteers will be working on external and internal facility improvements to the New Mirawood Academy, a child care center in the City of West Park. Scholastic employees will then set up a Community Family Resource Center with Scholastic books, materials, and computers.
CSC is partnering with the Urban League to find solutions that address identified health disparities and challenges in Broward County.
CSC has been recommended by the Forum for Youth Investment (FYI) to present on collective impact at an upcoming conference in St. Louis. Ms. Arenberg Seltzer noted that the relationship with FYI has been yielding many opportunities. She also drew Members’ attention to an email from FYI that described Broward as being far ahead of others in the area of Results Based Accountability (RBA) and commended Dr. Gallagher, CSC Director for Research/Planning/Analysis, and the Broward RBA Team for their successful presentation in Tampa that received great feedback.
CSC has been chosen as a participant in the Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) Performance Partnership Pilot. The Broward pilot is looking to ease restrictions on 21st 2
Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC), Workforce Innovation, and Supplemental Educational Services (SES) funding so that it can be used more effectively and collaboratively to benefit the youth in those programs.
Dr. Gallagher and Ms. Gloria Putiak, CSC Planner/Research Analyst, are providing data and action steps for the STAR Community Rating System. Broward County is a pilot site for rating a community on its sustainability. The rating can be used for marketing and cross-community comparison. Both the CSC and the Children’s Strategic Plan (CSP) may be considered for submission as community innovations.
Ms. Arenberg Seltzer drew Members’ attention to several emails in the meeting information packet thanking CSC and staff for the work they do in the community.
Ms. Arenberg Seltzer displayed the framed Sun-Sentinel Society Page cover that featured Ms. Bartleman representing the CSC.
Mrs. Arenberg Seltzer shared information on the upcoming presentation in Broward by Mr. Dan Pallotta, an author and leading expert on innovation in the nonprofit sector who is known for creating the multi-day charitable event industry with the long-distance Breast Cancer 3-Day walks and AIDS Rides bicycle journeys. He is being brought to Broward by the Center for Strategic Philanthropy & Civic Engagement and a group of community organizations to share his perspective on transforming the way society views charity, giving, and changing the world.
Mr. Benitez surfaced past criticism of Mr. Pallotta’s charitable events and the significant portion of funds raised that went toward administrative overhead and event planning instead of toward the charitable cause for which the funds were raised. Mr. Benitez stated he was uncomfortable with CSC supporting Mr. Pallotta’s upcoming speaking engagement based upon the disappointing imbalance of administrative costs versus money actually going to AIDS organizations from the 1996 AIDS Ride in Broward, as well as his personal efforts and perspective relating to that event.
Council members discussed the benefits of supporting the non-profit sector and exploring creative solutions to benefit non-profits in Broward, as well as ensuring that CSC sponsorships reflect the Council’s values. They agreed that since they had previously voted to sponsor this event and the organization had already received the money, they should be allowed to keep it, but CSC should not be cited in any marketing material.
ACTION: Commissioner Gunzburger made a motion to remove CSC’s name and logo as a sponsor from any future material promoting the Dan Pallotta speaking engagement at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts. The motion was seconded by Mr. Benitez and passed with no opposing votes.
As the long-time Executive Director of the Broward County Legislative Delegation, Ms. Sandy Harris was presented with a plaque and thanked for being a champion for Broward’s children and families. Ms. Harris plans to retire after the next legislative session. Council members wished her well and reflected upon her achievements and impact in Broward County.

V. CPO Report:
ACTION: Commissioner Gunzburger made a motion to approve all items under the CPO Report, as presented, minus the additional kinship funding/allocations. Those items include City of West Park’s leveraged funds request, renewal of Family Central’s PAT Family Strengthening Program, reallocation of funds from After School @ Your Library to Unallocated Funds for FY 13/14, and 21st CCLC MOU with the School Board. The motion was seconded by Mr. Benitez and passed with no opposing votes.
a) Kinship Funding
Ms. Swartzbaugh Ghezzi gave an overview of CSC funding for Kinship services and the recommendations of the Kinship Rating Committee. At its June meeting, the Council approved the Committee’s recommendations and allocated an additional $150,000 for Kinship programs, directing the Committee to reconvene to consider recommendations for the additional funding. The Committee reconvened on July 24th and recommended allocating $90,000 to Harmony Development Center (Harmony), in partnership with Genesis Worship Center (Genesis); $30,000 to Kids In Distress (KID) with Memorial as a partner; and $30,000 to the National Youth Advocate Program (NYAP).
Ms. Gorsuch stressed the importance of this program area, noting that the number of children being removed from their homes due to abuse and neglect has greatly increased, and therefore so has the number of children entering into kinship care. She requested that staff closely monitor Harmony’s new Kinship program and report back to the Council in six months if the program was not coming together so that the money could be reallocated to the other providers.
Mr. Benitez echoed Ms. Gorsuch’s statement concerning the increase of children coming into the care of the State, and also agreed that close monitoring of the Harmony Kinship program was required. He added that CSC technical assistance should be provided if necessary.
In further discussion of the Committee’s recommendations, Council Members expressed a desire to ensure that there were various options and locations available to Kinship families that would meet their needs and provide a comfortable environment for them to receive services. Ms. Arenberg Seltzer assured Members that a broad array of services was being provided through the Kinship RFP, with nearly a doubling of the capacity of the system. She pointed out that families now have a choice of providers and additional options to meet their needs.
Ms. Myriam Campo-Goldman, Harmony Development Center, explained that their kinship services would be provided in other places in addition to churches, such as at the Harmony Offices throughout the County and the Miramar Community Center. She further explained that they chose to partner with the churches because there is a lot of need in the faith community with Kinship families. Harmony provides services for 900 youth and their families, some of them Kinship families. She emphasized that Harmony has a long history of working for all families in Broward County, providing services in the areas of behavioral/mental health; substance abuse prevention, education, intervention, and treatment; delinquency prevention, education, intervention, and treatment; afterschool and summer programs; mentoring; teen pregnancy prevention; and restorative justice. She pointed out that for the 12 years they have provided services in Broward County, 4
they have produced excellent outcomes. She also added that 8% of Harmony’s funding is administrative, while 92% of the funding is directed into services. She concluded that she was grateful for this opportunity to enhance their services.
Ms. Valladares thanked the Genesis Center and Harmony Development Center for being a partner in the Council’s Agency Capacity Building Committee and for their efforts in the community.
ACTION: Commissioner Gunzburger made a motion to approve the Kinship Initiatives for Supportive Services (KISS) allocation inclusive of the $150,000 expansion as recommended by the Rating Committee. The motion was seconded by Ms. Valladares and passed with no opposing votes.
c) Recognize CSC/Junior Achievement Collaboration:
Ms. Arenberg Seltzer thanked CSC Program Specialist Piper Roth for initiating a partnership with Junior Achievement, with no additional funding from CSC, to creatively adapt their Junior Achievement BizTown curriculum to better meet the needs of youth and special needs. As a result, youth in the CSC-funded STEP program participated in ten modified lessons in work readiness, business operation, and financial literacy and were able to operate a JA BizTown business. In recognition of Junior Achievement’s outstanding efforts, Ms. Arenberg Seltzer presented Mr. John Nowak, Program Director for Junior Achievement of South Florida, with a certificate.
VI. RAP Report:
a) Communications & Outreach Survey Presentation:
Mr. Kelly Ewen, Rose Research, LLC, gave an overview of the Communications & Outreach Survey and the results from the recent phone and online surveys. He explained the methodology used and deemed the results statistically reliable.
Council members agreed the survey results were a great place to start in crafting an effective outreach plan to ensure all residents of Broward County are aware of important services available to them.
Ms. Arenberg Seltzer commended CSC’s Public Affairs and Organizational Development staff for creating awareness of CSC’s services in the community, as well as CSC’s Program Services and Research staff for crafting effective programs that produce excellent outcomes, and CSC’s Fiscal staff for their fiscal responsibility and careful tracking of CSC money. She also thanked the CSC-funded providers for the great work they are doing and for acknowledging CSC as the funder of the programs.
Ms. Arenberg Seltzer outlined the Council’s next steps, which include convening Focus Groups to probe into more details that will guide CSC in crafting an effective outreach plan to ensure those who need services are aware of them and the way to access them. Ms. Bartleman, Ms. Valladares, and Ms. Gorsuch volunteered to meet with CSC staff and Rose Research to plan for the Focus Group meetings.

VII. COO Report:

ACTION: Commissioner Gunzburger made a motion to increase Unallocated by $400,000 using Fund Balance, approve the FY 13/14 draft budget, and approve Interim Financial Statements and Budget Amendments for July 31, 2013, as presented.

Sent: Friday, August 30, 2013 1:41 PM To: Cindy Arenberg Seltzer Subject: Thank you! Hi Cindy, Sorry I didn’t get to personally say hi to you yesterday. It was great to have so many of Broward’s Partners gathering yesterday for lunch and meeting with Barbara Palmer. I hope the Med-Waiver and Adult Programs can take some leadership from what the CSC has done. The combination of yesterday gathering which outlined so many things we are doing well for the children in Broward County along with the several meetings I’ve had this week with our STEP and MOST parents led me to again thanking you for your partnership and support. Together we truly are, “changing lives”. We do satisfaction surveys throughout the year which always show the effectiveness of our programs, but I recently spoke to a few families specifically about the services they are receiving in our STEP and MOST Programs funded by CSC. They practically brought me to tears. We are making a difference in the lives of these families! So thank you for that and for having awesome staff to work with. We appreciate you all. Have a nice long weekend Cindy! Sincerely, Pat Pat Murphy Executive Director UCP of Broward, Palm Beach and Mid-Coast Counties Tab 4 For Council Meeting September 19, 2013 System Goal 1.1: Improve the coordination of children's services. Objective 3: Collaborate with community partners to provide a single point of entry into the system of care (2-1-1 Information & Referral) Issue: (1) 2-1-1 Administrative Budget Correction(s) for General Population and Special Needs Contracts. (2) Proposed CSC Collective Impact for Youth Award for the Non-Profit Academy Awards Event Action: (1) Approve 211 Administrative Budget Corrections for FY 13/14. (2) Approve Sponsorship of New Children’s Services Council Academy Award for Collective Impact for Youth. Budget Impact: $19,743 of $530,877 Available in Unallocated for FY 13/14. Background: Since 2002, the Children’s Services Council has recognized 2-1-1 as the simplified point of entry into the system of care in Broward County. As such, the Council has been a long-standing supporter of the General Information and Referral hotline for calls for child-related services and a dedicated Special Needs Information and Referral unit to assist families with children with disabilities. These efforts have been very well received in the community and have increased accessibility and awareness of valuable resources in our community. Following a spike in service calls: 20% more child-related calls to the General hotline and 26% more Special Needs calls during the past three years and last year, over 57,000 calls for general assistance and over 2,900 calls related to Special Needs services were managed by 211’s capable I & R staff. 211 continues to meet or exceed all performance measures; their programmatic and administrative monitoring are excellent. Since 2009, 2-1-1 has hosted the annual Non-Profit Academy Awards event, which celebrates the hard work, dedication and achievement of Broward’s local network of non-profit organizations and its leaders. This prestigious event recognizes the highest level of non-profit service achievement, innovation and quality with eight Academy Award categories. Hosted by CBS 4 anchor Nicole Maristany, the event drew over 1,000 community advocates and received an unprecedented level of media exposure and sponsorship support. Current Status: In addition to their robust I&R functions, 2-1-1 has become an instrumental community partner with significant roles in Emergency Management including Haiti and other relief efforts, Children’s Strategic Plan committees and the Special Needs Advisory Committee (SNAC), to name a few. They provide a wealth of information on community needs, both met and unmet, and generate data sets for community planning initiatives such as Domestic Violence, teen pregnancy and homeless youth. Also of note is their work managing our community’s resource data; although funder data collection through the Community Resource Inventory will be discontinued, the 211 work updating and managing service information has escalated, from 3,027 agencies and 802 programs in 2010/11 to 4,017 agencies (↑23%) and 1,041 programs (↑25%) in 2012/13. R:\CSC Action Items\FY12-13\Sep 13\211 Administrative Budget Revision.doc Two issues related to 211 and their services have been identified: (1) As CSC staff was finalizing 211 contracts for FY 13/14 for the General hotline and Special Needs contracts, shortfalls in both administrative budgets were identified. CSC limits administrative costs of 10%; however, 211 was budgeted for only 6.5% and 6.8%, respectively. It is recommended that this shortfall be corrected with increased administrative allocations of $8,457 for the General hotline and $9,286 for the Special Needs unit. This action aligns their administrative allocations with other contractual services for other funded agencies. (2) CSC staff is excited at the prospect of a larger role in 211’s prestigious Academy Awards event this year! In addition to funder recognition, CSC has the opportunity for a new Academy Award, the CSC Collective Impact for Youth Award. CSC would be featured in all pre-event activities, featured in all media materials and online communications (website, e-blasts, social media, etc) while recognizing work that supports the CSC mission, vision and work. These events will also provide venues to disseminate information on CSC programs and services while honoring exceptional non-profit organizations. CSC sponsorship of $2,000 provides a $1,000 award to the winning agency and $500 each to two runners-up agencies. Agencies must be nominated for the award and must demonstrate their commitment to Collective Impact in support of youth. Winners will be selected by an independent panel of judges based on criteria supplied by CSC. Action: (1) Approve 211 Administrative Budget Corrections for FY 13/14. (2) Approve Sponsorship of New Children’s Services Council Academy Award for Collective Impact for Youth. Budget Impact: $19,743 of $530,877 Available in Unallocated for FY 13/14. R:\CSC Action Items\FY12-13\Sep 13\211 Administrative Budget Revision.doc Tab 5 For Council Meeting September 19, 2013 Service Goal 3.1: Reduce risk factors associated with delinquency, violence, victimization, school failure, teen pregnancy, and other risky behaviors by strengthening protective factors and positive decision-making skills. Objectives 1 & 2: Provide youth development programs that engage typical teens and teens with behavioral health needs and promote school and community attachment. Issue: Increase FY 12/13 funding allocation for the Minority Development and Empowerment (MDE) Youth FORCE (Friends, Opportunities, Resources, Counseling & Education) Program (RFP). Action: Approve One-Time Increase for MDE Youth FORCE for FY 12/13. Budget Impact: $13,000 of $21,154 Currently Available in Unallocated for FY 12/13. Background: The Council has long recognized the importance of year-round youth development programming that engages teens in safe, supervised, pro-social activities. Since 2008, Youth FORCE programs have provided engaging “clubs” for students attending high need Middle Schools, identified based on poverty, school grades, delinquency referral rates and unexcused absenteeism. These year- round afterschool/summer programs operate on 18 school campuses and three community-based sites to promote positive decision-making skills in fun, disguised-learning environments. Last year, academic support, counseling and case management, and cultural enrichment opportunities were provided to 1,254 youth, enhancing their protective factors and reducing risk factors. All Youth Force programs are exceptional; meeting or exceeding all performance measures with strong programmatic monitoring and positive administrative reviews. Current Status: Although several Youth FORCE providers are expected to over-serve their contract, Minority Development and Empowerment (MDE) has had added challenges due to the economic downturn. Financial repercusions are a 40% reduction in agency revenue. To address these extraordinary circumstances, MDE has re-organized business practices, consolidated two management positions and outsourced some administrative functions while continuing to provide excellent direct services. While MDE’s Youth FORCE attendance has always been robust, summer participation exceeded expectations, due in part to limited services available in Northeast County. While this is encouraging in light of the high need communities they serve, MDE currently lacks the financial depth to absorb the resulting over-utilization without additional CSC support. Based on current invoicing, it is estimated that MDE will require an additional $13,000 for September services. At the May Budget Retreat, the Council approved an increased MDE allocation and capacity; however, that action is not effective unitil October 1st. An additional, one-time allocation of $13,000 is recommended to address the extraordinary set of circumstances impacting this niche organization. Recommended Action: Approve One-Time increase for MDE Youth FORCE for FY 12/13. Budget Impact: $13,000 of $21,154 Currently Available in Unallocated for FY 12/13. r:\csc action items\fy12-13\sep 13\mde youth force ip sept 2013.docx Tab 6 For Council Meeting September 19, 2013 Issue: Update Language for the FY13/14 Goals and Objectives to Align with RBA Format Action: Approve Updated Language for the FY13/14 Goals and Objectives to Align with RBA Format. Budget Impact: N/A Background: The Council’s Goals and Objectives form the backbone for how CSC’s funding is organized, accounted for and reported on. This language is used for the headers on all Issue Papers, how CSC’s funding is presented on the public website and in preparation of the Budget Book. Additionally, all CSC’s informational systems such as SAMIS, the financial system, workload for the departments, etc. incorporate the Goals and Objectives in their reporting structure. It has been several years since the last time the language was last updated. Current Status: Staff reviewed the language for each Goal and Objective and when appropriate, aligned the language with the Children’s Strageic Plan using the RBA format. The changes were minimal and in many instances simplfied the Goal or Objective to better reflect the purpose of the particular initiative. Recommended Action: Approve Updated Language for the FY13/14 Goals and Objectives to Align with RBA Format.

The Plan focuses on improving service systems and results for children, families and communities. It is a robust network that would benefit from partnering with other entities that are working on improving community infrastructure such as transportation, economic development, healthy environments, and affordable housing as the issues faced by families served by the Council. The South Florida Regional Partnership (The Partnership) is a consortium of more than 200 public, private, non-profit organizations and supporters from Monroe, Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Martin, St. Lucie, and Indian River counties. It was initiated by the 2009 HUD Sustainable Communities Planning Grants project. In 2010, the Partnership received a $4.25 million grant to develop the region’s “Seven50” plan by February 2014. The Partnership is a voluntary membership organization committed to working together to create a prosperous economy, livable and equitable communities, and a sustainable environment for Southeast Florida. Specifically, Partnership members sign a “Memorandum of Understanding” adopting the below Livability Principles to support collaborative work of sustainably developing and redeveloping Southeast Florida: Livability Principles 1. Provide more transportation choices. 2. Promote equitable, affordable housing. 3. Enhance economic competiveness. 4. Support existing communities. 5. Coordinate policies and leverage investment. 6. Value communities and neighborhoods. 7. Enhance community resilience to the impacts of Climate Change. The Council and the Broward Children’s Strategic Plan have important voices, research, and advocacy to help inform the implementation of these Livability Principles. As a regional partnership, best practices and data will be generated and shared both at the region and the county level. CSC Action Items/FY 12-13/Leadership Coalition Partnership Agreement/Oct 2012 Current Status: The Council has been asked to join the Partnership and there are two membership options: Consortium Partner and Regular Partner. A Consortium Partner serves as a core team member for meeting the HUD grant requirements and carrying out the activities of the “Seven50” Plan, including the additional commitment of leveraged resources in terms of staff, financial investment, data sharing and access to relationships. A Regular Partner commits to working collaboratively to achieve the “Seven50” Plan goals. Given the initiative’s current focus on civic infrastructure and minimal attention on social and human services, it is recommended that the Council join the Partnership as a Regular Partner. A copy of the recommended Regular Partner Agreement is attached for reference. The Partner level can be revisited at any time in the future if the focus becomes more holistic and more inclusive of children and familiy-serving systems. Recommended Action: Approve CSC Signature as a Regular Partner with South Florida Regional Partnership.

Value communities and neighborhoods. Enhance the unique characteristics of all communities by investing in healthy, safe, and walkable neighborhoods – rural, urban or suburban. 7. Enhance community resilience to the impacts of Climate Change. Enhance community resilience to the impacts of climate change through the development of mitigation and adaptation strategies. WHEREAS, any regional plan document developed by the Southeast Florida Regional Partnership will support these Livability Principles and should, to the greatest extent possible and where appropriate, be built upon the foundation of work that has been accomplished and undertaken in the region where existing plans, partnerships, and processes enhance regional planning, coordination and efficiency, reduce unnecessary duplication of effort and responsibilities, and add clarity and accountability to implementation processes. NOW THEREFORE, Partnership Members agree to the following: I. Partnership Members: This Partnership Agreement is entered into by general members of the Southeast Florida Regional Partnership. II. Goal: Partnership members will work together to successfully carry out the activities outlined in the Southeast Florida Regional Partnership’s work plan to create a the “Seven50: SE Florida Prosperity Plan1“ approved by the U.S. HUD on May 11, 2011 and subsequently revised (Attachment A). The work plan, milestones, and schedules will be more fully developed by the Partnership’s Executive Committee, the chief governing board for the Partnership and the Consortium; Partnership and Consortium participants; and work groups in consultation with HUD. The Partnership and Consortium will take the following six steps to achieve and sustain the Seven50 Plan: . Build long term collaborative partnerships; . Build and support the region’s leadership capacity; . Measure where the region currently is and where it will likely be if trends continue; . Identify a vision of the future with better outcomes than identified in the current conditions and trend analysis; . Engage communities in developing plans to achieve the Seven50 Plan with emphasis on equitable and achievable outcomes; and . Develop strategies to implement the regional vision and Seven50 Plan and measure progress towards the Seven50 Plan outcomes. 1 Formerly referred to as the “Regional Vision and Blueprint for Economic Prosperity.” 2 III. Purpose of the Partnership Agreement: The purpose of this Partnership Agreement is to create a framework for coordinating efforts related to the successful completion of the work program funded under the Sustainable Communities Planning Grant Program and to formalize the roles and commitments of Partnership members as they are known today. The Partnership will work over the next three years to create and lay the foundation for implementation of the Seven50 Plan. IV. Roles / Commitments: Partnership members, as regional leaders, commit to develop and implement the Seven50 Plan unless it is detrimental to their organization and/or the region. Specifically Partnership members agree that, to the extent that they are able, they will: . Assist and participate in the development of strategies, plans and tools; . Assist in engaging stakeholders, particularly local and hard-to-reach populations; . Help assess, analyze, and evaluate plans, strategies, tools, and projects; . Play specific roles in implementing local projects providing leadership, staff support, research, oversight, or financial support; . Participate in educational and outreach opportunities through classes, meetings, conferences, and workshops; and . Assist in developing and refining the visions and plans that constitute the elements of a sustainable region and integrating these visions. Furthermore, Partnership members affirm: . The SFRPC will act in the representative capacity with HUD on behalf of the Southeast Florida Regional Partnership and the SFRPC agrees to assume administrative responsibility for ensuring the Partnership’s program is carried out in compliance with HUD requirements and the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006; . To work cooperatively with the SFRPC (lead applicant), the TCRPC, and other Partnership members to develop the Seven50 Plan; . To work with the Executive Committee established as the overall governing body for the Partnership to ensure full participation by Partnership in developing and implementing the Seven50 Plan, and to involve additional committees, organizations, and groups as part of the community engagement work that is integral to this effort; and .

Partnership members will designate a primary delegate and a backup delegate to serve as points of contact for the participating organization. Partnership members will be invited to meet at least three times a year to receive reports on the work of the Partnership and provide guidance and input in the development of the Seven50 and related work plan activities. The SFRPC, as lead fiscal agent, will maintain a list of all Partnership members and their designees. Any Partnership member may terminate its membership in the Partnership upon written notice from the organization’s Executive Director or Chief Executive Officer, with hard copy by U.S. Mail, to the Executive Director of the SFRPC. V. Governance Structure and Decision-making: The following principles guide the Partnership’s organization: o Build an enduring consensus and constituency for the regional vision and Seven50 Plan; o Develop a clear organizational structure and decision-making protocols for the Partnership; o Create multiple, meaningful opportunities for engagement, input and decision-making from the full range of public, private, and civic/nonprofit partners in the region, including traditionally underrepresented stakeholders; 3 o Enable “joinability” so that the Partnership can continue to grow over time; o Build on the strengths of existing institutions in the region; o Engage and build ownership among implementing agencies and stakeholders early and throughout the process; o Ensure transparency and clear lines of accountability and reporting; and o Adapt the Partnership’s organizational model over time as the project shifts from visioning to implementation. Southeast Florida Regional Partnership Organization Mission Statement The Southeast Florida Regional Partnership will create and implement the “Seven50: SE Florida Prosperity Plan” to support the creation of a vibrant and resilient economy; socially inclusive, sustainable, and equitable communities; and environmental sustainability. The core elements of the organization include the following: Southeast Florida Regional Partnership: Provides a regional forum for discussion and consensus building on issues of importance to Southeast Florida. The Partnership will develop and approve the Seven 50 Plan, and support long-term implementation of Seven50 Plan through individual and collective action. During the visioning process the Partnership will primarily conduct its work through issue-specific Work Groups, augmented by at least four summits of the entire Partnership during the visioning process. In parallel with the visioning process, the Partnership will explore options for a long-term optimal structure to assist with implementation, progress review, and future updates. The intent is for the Partnership to develop a long-term structure for its ongoing operations by the conclusion of the visioning process. To join the Partnership, organizations must sign this Partnership Agreement and commit to work collaboratively to advance the region’s livability and sustainability through implementation of the work program developed by the Partnership with support of the Sustainable Communities Planning Grant Program. Partnership members who are not currently Consortium participants and have pledged leverage and in-kind support may wish to become Consortium participants with additional responsibilities in the development and implementation of the work plan. Partnership Work Groups: Serve as regional subject matter experts in identified issue areas, and develop technical and policy recommendations and draft products for review by the Partnership. Work Group membership will be open to Partnership members (individuals and organizations) interested in the subject matter. The Executive Committee will ensure that the membership of each Work Group reflects a mix of perspectives among the public, private, and civic sectors; among subareas and types of communities in the region (coastal, urban, suburban, and rural); and among socioeconomic/ethnic groups including traditionally 4 underrepresented groups. The chair and vice chair of each Work Group will be identified by the Partnership’s Executive Committee. Sustainable Communities Grant Consortium: Serve as the core team within the Partnership for meeting HUD requirements and carrying out activities to develop the Seven50 Plan. Consortium participants agree to the basic commitments and responsibilities outlined for Partnership members, as well as the additional commitment of leveraged resources in terms of staff participation, financial investment, or other resources. Executive Committee: Serve as the overall governing board for Partnership. The Executive Committee will oversee the Sustainable Communities Regional Planning Grant administration; establish the project organization; approve the overall work plan; recommend the selection of staff and consultants to the Regional Planning Council boards for action; provide guidance to the Project Director and Partnership Coordinator; provide policy direction for the Seven50 Plan; ensure all constituencies have meaningful opportunities to engage and shape the process; identify and resolve significant issues arising during the process; recommend the final regional vision and Seven50 Plan; and recommend the long-term structure for Southeast Florida Regional Partnership. The Executive Committee has 17 initial members as identified in the grant application. The Committee is designed to expand as needed to ensure representation of segments of the region as needed to make the Executive Committee more responsive to the needs of all residents and businesses. Regional Planning Councils / Project Management Team: The SFRPC will act as the fiscal agent for the grant. The SFRPC will work with the TCRPC to manage the work program, including hiring project staff, and other staff and consultants; developing consultant scopes of work and budgets; and providing technical and consensus- building assistance to Consortium and Partnership members. VI. Partner Roles / Commitments: The members of the Southeast Florida Regional Partnership will belong to one of three tiers. TIER 1 – Partnership Member. Basic tier of participation. All Partnership members have signed a MOU or Partnership Agreement and committed to work collaboratively to advance regional livability principles through implementation of the work program developed by the Partnership with support from the Sustainable Communities Regional Planning Grant Program. TIER 2 – Sustainable Communities Grant Consortium Member. This includes the basic commitments and responsibilities outlined for Partnership members, but also includes additional commitment of leveraged resources in terms of staff, financial investment, or other resources. To be a Consortium member, a Partnership member must execute a consortium agreement to formalize their greater level of commitment and direct involvement in the development and implementation of the Seven50 Plan. TIER 3 – Consortium Subgrantees. In addition to general Consortium participant commitments and responsibilities, a subset of Consortium participants may be asked to perform specific work program tasks. In addition to this Agreement, Consortium Subgrantees will be required to enter into a contract with specific deliverables and time frames, and meet all HUD requirements. As the development of the Seven 50 Plan unfolds, work groups meet, and the Executive Committee makes decisions on process and content, new roles and responsibilities may emerge. These new roles and responsibilities will be captured in project scopes and new agreements. VII. Joinability: The Southeast Florida Regional Partnership will continue to grow over time. An ongoing task will be to reach out to potential new partners and seek their membership and active involvement. New partners will be asked to sign the Partnership Agreement or Consortium Agreement as appropriate. Interested stakeholders who have not joined the Partnership will be able to participate in appropriate work groups and the regional summits and community workshops, and will be encouraged to join the Partnership as members. 5 VIII. Public Engagement: All meetings of the Southeast Florida Regional Partnership are publicly noticed. On most occasions, interested persons can participate by phone, webinar, or in person. The Consortium will implement a wide ranging public engagement process throughout the region that prioritizes the engagement of all community residents and stakeholders, particularly groups traditionally underrepresented in public planning processes. This process will include community outreach, written and visual materials and information accessible to disabled populations. The public involvement component will ensure the participation of a wide range of stakeholders to ensure a diversity of population, viewpoints, and issues. VIIII. Other Considerations: Benefits for participation in the Partnership are the enhanced ability of the region and individual communities to develop and implement the Seven50 Plan. By participating in the Partnership, work partners will be able to influence the development of plans, strategies, and tools and access those tools for their own use. In addition, partners will have the potential opportunity to access additional federal and other funds to advance their own prosperity, livability, and sustainability goals as long as they also further the regional priorities. 6 SOUTHEAST FLORIDA REGIONAL PARTNERSHIP PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT By my signature below, my organization / agency reaffirms its commitment to serve as a member of the Southeast Florida Regional Partnership in accordance with the terms outlined in this Partnership Agreement. I understand that this Partnership Agreement will be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which will constitute one and the same instrument. The executed Partnership Agreement will be kept on file at the South Florida Regional Planning Council. This Partnership Agreement will become effective upon signature of the Partnership member and may be terminated upon written notice to the South Florida Regional Planning Council. The provisions of this Partnership Agreement will be reviewed periodically and amended or supplemented, as appropriate, as may be mutually agreed upon. ______Name, Title James F.

Budget Impact: $78,200 of $96,988 Available in Equipment/Software Line Item in FY 12/13. Project will carry forward into FY 13/14. Background: CSC has used Microsoft Great Plains (GP) Financial System since inception with regular upgrades and full maintenance support. Since it is time once again to upgrade to the latest version from GP2010 to GP2013, staff has taken time to consider the many options now available in the technology environment. After a thorough analysis, it makes both financial and technological sense to move our financial system from our current physical server environment into the “cloud”. While the hard costs are about the same for the immediate time period, over the long-term not having to purchase and maintain multiple servers, not having to pay for future operating or GP system upgrades or annual support, the benefits of redundancy and disaster recovery will make this transition cost effective for CSC in years to come. Current Status: In order to move into the Cloud, staff solicited proposals from three Gold Certified Microsoft Partners. After a thorough review of the proposals, it was determined to change from our current consultants to AAJ Technologies. They are a local company, have the necessary resources and depth to help “take us to the next level” within multiple technology systems and platforms all at a lower cost. Upon Council approval of AAJ Technologies as our ongoing consultant, they will help us upgrade the GP and SQL systems, migrate reports from an outdated system to a new report writer, develop missing budget and encumbrance “cubes” (which will aid with the data warehouse information) and train staff. To plan this transition into the cloud, it is necessary to first upgrade to GP2013. This will be the last upgrade that we will need to pay for. The most opportune time to perform this upgrade is right after the close of the fiscal year and before the new information is loaded in the system for the upcoming fiscal year. Once the GP system is upgraded, the migration to the Cloud can take place. After that point, CSC will then pay an inclusive monthly per user charge. CSC will not need to purchase or maintain the financial system servers locally and MIS will be able to repurpose the current server as part of their network upgrade and virtualization migration. Another aspect to this project includes the development of the data warehouse that will combine data from the financial system and other systems such as SAMIS for a comprehensive perspective on all CSC data. To develop the data warehouse and train staff in how to create, maintain and report the information, staff is recommending the consulting services of Bridexton, Inc. (Clinton Bompart, owner). We are estimating approximately 260 hours at $115 per hour (not to exceed $30,000) over the next four months. This project outlined above lays the foundation for the forthcoming development of a dynamic Share Point site. The next phase of improving our information management system will be to develop a comprehensive SharePoint site that will incorporate Business Intelligence (“BI”). This was included in the budget for FY 13/14 and will likely be brought forward for Council approval in the 1st quarter. R:\CSC Action Items\FY12-13\Sep 13\Fin System GP Cloud Pur.doc SharePoint 2013 and BI provides powerful features like interactive dashboards and scorecards that allow us to access and configure the information in databases, reports and business applications to fit our reporting and analysis needs. SharePoint will link to our business applications, such as GP, SAMIS, and Microsoft SQL, allowing us to easily publish reports, lists, and key performance indicators (KPIs). These published reports will allow us to provide strategic or operational data for timely, accurate and informed decisions. A summary of one-time and on-going monthly charges are listed below: Financial System Cloud Related Purchases GP Upgrade to 2013 AAJ Technologies upgrade of GP, upgrade SQL, migrate (one-time cost) reports to new report writer, customize missing cubes for $31,400 budget and encumbrances, training, etc. GP Cloud Financial Monthly per user charge of $1,400 inclusive of all costs. $16,800 System (annualized) Currently we will need 7 users Data Warehouse Bridexton Inc. Consulting Services for Data Warehouse Development and $30,000 (Not to Exceed Amount) Staff Training Total Annual and One-Time Costs $78,200 Recommended Action: Approve Upgrade of the Financial System, Moving Financial System into the Cloud and Development of a Data Warehouse. Budget Impact: $78,200 of $96,988 Available in Equipment/Software Line Item in FY 12/13. Project will carry forward into FY 13/14. R:\CSC Action Items\FY12-13\Sep 13\Fin System GP Cloud Pur.doc Tab 9 For Council Meeting September 19 , 2013 Issue: Amend Travel and Expense Policy Action: Approve Travel and Expense Policy Budget Impact: Will be absorbed in the currently allocated budget line item for out- of-county travel. Background: SB1426 authorizes counties, school boards and special districts to set per diem travel rates that vary from those set in FS s.112.061. Thus, a governing body may adopt a travel and expense policy which varies from the provisions of FL Statute 112.061. The CSC current travel policy reimburses staff for meals when traveling overnight in accordance with rates approved by the Council on October 16, 2003. It has been approximately 10 years since the revision took place. Current Status: Staff is recommending amending the CSC travel policy to tie to the per diem rates at the lowest tier of the Federal GSA rates to more accurately reflect current costs. This will also allow rates to automatically adjust as the fed rates are adjusted. Hotel and other related travel costs will continue to be paid at the actual rate. See chart below for recommended change. Current rates Recommended rates per (Approved by the Federal Guidelines Council in 2003) (lowest tier) Breakfast $5.00 $7.00 Lunch $10.00 $11.00 Dinner $15.00 $23.00 Total Daily Rate $30.00 $41.00 Budget Impact: Will be absorbed in the currently allocated budget line item for out-of- county travel.

Budget Impact: $33,959 of the $71,000 Available in System Goal 3.1 for FY 13/14. Background: On April 30, 2004, the legislature passed the “Local Funding Revenue Maximization Act” which intended to enhance the abilities of agencies and local political subdivisions to achieve maximum federal matching funds for local preventive health and human services and child development programs. The Council along with our several of our other CSCs across the State entered into a consulting agreement with Public Consulting Group, Inc. (PCG) to being work on several initiatives. PCG has assisted us over the years in setting into place Title IV-E draw down, Amendment to the State Plan to add Medicaid Service to serve children at risk of abuse and neglect and was instrumental in helping CSC of Broward claim $2.3 million in TANF Emergency Contingency funds in 2011. Current Status: Staff has been exploring other options with respect to Revenue Maximization and had planned to bid this out in the last quarter of FY12/13. However, there are two issues on the horizon that bring bring staff to recommend waiting on doing an RFQ until midway in FY 13/14. PCG has been working with AHCA on a rate increase petition that is now scheduled to go into effect on October 1, 2013. Additionally, with the roll out of Medicaid's Managed Care across the state, our consultant PCG has been in the midst of discusions with AHCA regarding how to ensure the Targeted Case Management Program remains an option for Medicaid Clients in the select CSC counties across the state. AHCA is in the midst of negotiating with those Managed Care companies. Six months should be sufficient to bring a better understanding to these ongoing issues. Recommended Action: Approve 6 month Contract Extension for Public Consulting Group, Inc. for FY 13/14. Budget Impact: $33,959 of the $71,000 budgeted for System Goal 3.1 for FY 13/14. r:\csc action items\fy12-13\sep 13\rev max renewal for pcg.docx CONSULTING AGREEMENT This Agreement, entered into this 1st day of October, 2013 is between Public Consulting Group (“PCG”) hereinafter referred to as Consultant, and the Children’s Services Council of Broward County, hereinafter referred to as CSC.

Action: Approve Interim Financial Statements for Period Ending August 31, 2013. Budget Impact: None Background: The monthly Interim Financial Statements through August 31, 2013 are attached for your review and approval. Please note that the programmatic expenditures only include services provided through July 2013 since billing runs a month behind. However, the administrative costs are presented through the end of August. Current Status: These statements summarize several financial reporting perspectives including monthly activity, year-to-date (YTD) expenditures and the annualized budget-to-actual expenditures including encumbrances. Additionally, the Direct Program Goals report includes a detailed explanation highlighting all of CSC’s programmatic contracts and their financial position as of the prior month (the latest services provided) and YTD budget to actual. While the Interim Financial Statements and Budget Amendments provide a comprehensive picture of CSC’s financial position, there are a few highlights worth noting: The August Budget Amendment Report incorporates all of the budget amendments for the Special Revenue Fund (Grants) from May’s Council meeting for the August and September time frame. Annual tax receipts continue to be better than expected for this time period of the fiscal year. Thus far we have received over 100% of the annual allocation! However, historically in August and September they have credited our tax revenue due to the VAB lowering the assessments and August does reflect a $24,109 credit. Additionally, last year we only collected 94.5% of the Ad Valorum revenue so this “additional” tax revenue are those late collections. The detailed contracts report through July begins on page 8. The programs are generally performing well and those that may be experiencing issues are being tended to by staff (see comments when additional information is warranted.)

(2) The modified accrual basis of accounting is utilized by CSC. Under the modified accrual basis, revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become available and measurable. Expenditures are recognized in the accounting period in which the liability is incurred, if measurable. (3) Funds invested in the SBA accommodate pool participants with readily available cash. A substantial portion of the portfolio is placed in short-term securities (“Fund A”) and with the downgrade of certain subprime investments a smaller portion of the pool includes longer maturities and higher credit risk (“Fund B”). The pool follows GASB Statement No. 31 which outlines two options for accounting and reporting for money market investment pools as either “2a-7 like fund” or fluctuation net asset value (“NAV”). Accordingly, the SBA has reported the same value as the pool shares allocated to Fund A and Wells Fargo Advantage funds; and the NAV value for shares allocated to SBA Fund B. At September 30, 2012, the Gain/(Loss) on Investments for Fund B was $19,846.40 and this amount was reflected within the CAFR. Accordingly, this amount is reversed in the current year and the NAV will be revalued at year's end. (4) Includes various pending contracts not yet encumbered such as training, hunger, ECE, 21st Century, etc (5) The reserved for administrative costs include projected expenditures for salary, fringe, travel, supplies, etc. for fiscal year 2012/13. (6) The Budget to Actual Expenditures Report reflects the actual expenditures for the month and year-to-date basis, and does not include encumbrances. Encumbrances are included on the Budget to Actual (Budgetary Basis) Report, which reflects the annualized budget and all outstanding encumbrances and actual expenditures through the current period. (7) The expenditures on the Program Services Goal Report run a month behind. Amounts reflected in the current month are for services provided during the prior month. This timing delay is due to the invoice due date on the 10th of the month following service delivery. Therefore, the Programs Goal Report is for services through the month of July and some from August that are processed in August, which affects ideal percentage rate. (8) Unassigned fund balance changes as revenue is received and actual expenditures are incurred. (9) Salary, Fringe and Travel budget and expenditures are included for the SAMIS Director Position that CSC serves as the Salary Agent. The revenue and related expenditures are considered Pass Through Funds and do not have an impact on CSC Broward's financial statements. 18 Fin Stmts fy13 2_Aug_13.xlsx Notes Tab 12 For Council Meeting September 19, 2013 Issue: CSC Monthly Purchases for Administrative Operations Action: 1. Approve CSC Monthly/Annual Purchases for September 2013 2. Approve CSC Monthly/Annual Purchases for FY 2013/14 Budget Impact: See attached Report Background: The State Statute creating and governing the CSC, Chapter 2000-461, as amended, states: Section 6: No funds of the council shall be expended except by check as aforesaid, except the expenditure of petty cash or the issuance of checks made payable for sums no greater than $5,000, shall be expended without prior approval of the council, in addition to the budgeting thereof. The Council’s procurement policies and procedures stipulate that expenditures are approved by the Council prior to being expended. As such, the financial system requires a Council Approval (CA) date at multiple points throughout the system including all processed payments. Internal controls for tracking expenditures in accordance with the statute are validated by auditors every year and there have been no significant deviations since the inception of the Council. Since 2004 at the Council’s direction, staff was instructed to only provide back-up material for purchases when the item is over $10,000.

In accordance with Council policy, Council members may serve as raters, appoint designee raters to serve on their behalf and approve source experts to serve on evaluation committees. Committee members review, rate and recommend the top choice to the full Council to be presented at the November 21st Council meeting. As always, the Council has full and final authority on all contracts recommended for services. Current Status: In addition to any Council members who wish to serve on the Evaluation Committee, it is recommended that the following individuals be approved as Evaluation Committee experts in the area of auditing services. Experts As Proposed Raters Lorna Walker Online Media Solutions Manager, Sun Sentinel Mary Alicia Johnson VP, Communications & Public Relations, YMCA Rachel Dippold Account Executive, COMCAST George Gadson Public Art and Design Sandra Bernard-Bastien Director, PAOD, CSC Recommended Action: Approve Experts for Communication and Outreach Consulting Services RFQ Evaluation Committee Budget Impact: None R:\CSC Action Items\FY12-13\Sep 13\Communication and Outreach Services RFQ Raters.docx Tab 14 For Council Meeting September 19, 2013 Service Goal 2.2: Strengthen the Community’s Awareness of Available Resources. Objective 1: Lead Community Collaborative to Coordinate Local Prosperity Campaigns. Issue: Prosperity Campaign Update. Action: None. For Information Only. Budget Impact: None. Background: The Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) is available for people who work but earn low wages. In 2002, the CSC began promoting EITC through a county-wide public awareness collaborative and since that time, EITC returns in Broward have increased by over $475 million. Over the years, the CSC’s focus has shifted from outreach to increased capacity at free tax-preparation Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) sites, where EITC recipients have their returns professionally filed at no cost. They also receive access to additional social services such as Food Stamps, KidCare, WIC, and Financial Literacy. During the tax season, VITA sites are operated by the Internal Revenue Service and community partners such as Hispanic Unity of Florida, Minority Development & Empowerment and the Center for Independent Living. Current Status: The CSC-led Broward VITA Collaborative (BVC) coordinated and managed logistics, training and operational processes of free tax preparation services in Broward during the 2013 tax season. HandsOn Broward, a valued BVC partner, recruited 286 IRS certified volunteers, who provided services at VITA sites The 9 CSC-funded free tax preparation sites performed exceptionally well, as noted by IRS on site monitors from their Atlanta Headquarters. Results, which do not include IRS and self-service tax sites, indicate that $5.5 million in tax dollars, which includes $1.9 million in EITC dollars, were claimed by Broward residents at CSC funded VITA sites. A refund increase of $400,000 plus over last year’s figures. It was a challenging 2013 tax season with an abundance of identity theft cases in the south Florida community, which BVC members, in partnership with the IRS, successfully handled and resolved. Due to the security intake process implemented by our BVC partners at all the Broward VITA sites; these cases were quickly identified and processed for further investigation, although it made for long lines at the IRS offices. In most instances, these cases were solved with the taxpayer getting the refund they deserved. By granting an extension to their contract time frame, CSC enabled MDEI to play an important role this year in resolving these issues, with them effectively processing amended forms for these affected clients.

Objective 3: Advocate for all Children Representing Broward’s Diverse Communities Through Public Awareness, Community and Legislative Outreach at the Local, State and National Level. Issue: Legislative Update. Action: None. For Information Only. Budget Impact: None. Background: In addition to providing funding and resources, the Council’s mission statement provides for advocacy on behalf of Broward’s children and families. In furtherance of that mission, FL CSC staff and government affairs staff from several CSCs, including Broward, work collaboratively during committee weeks and legislative sessions in order to provide a voice for issues relating to children and families at the Capitol. Current Status: Working collaboratively with the Children’s Movement of Florida, Early Learning Collation of Broward and United Way of Broward County, the CSC hosted a visit by Rep. George Moraitis (R-Fort Lauderdale) to Hi Tech Kidz Kollege, a Pompano Beach-based child care facility. This is part a statewide effort to communicate the importance of early care and education with key lawmakers. During the 2013 legislative session, the school readiness budget received a $5 million increase and members in in both chambers lauded the importance of early learning programs. CSC staff helped draft the Florida Children’s Council public policy priorities which are attached for reference. Key components and guiding principles of the 2014 agenda include local flexibility, quality programming, maintaining adequate and equitable funding, maximizing and leveraging revenue and opposing unfunded mandates.

South Florida Sun-Sentinel.com Children's Services Council plans slight tax increase Brittany Wallman, Sun Sentinel 7:40PM EDT, September 5, 2013 If the Children's Services Council of Broward is successful this year, you'll know who you paid more taxes to. The 13-year-old agency is a line item on prope11y tax bills in Broward County, but a recent survey found that most people aren't sure what they do, or who they are. That's why part of the tax increase expected to be tentatively approved at a budget hearing Monday will go toward marketing. "People want to know where their money is going," said Council CEO Cindy Arenberg Seltzer. The efforts are in advance of a ballot question that will determine the council's very tate. Voters established the Broward Children's Services Council in a 2000 referendum. But in 2011 a state law passed requiring independent councils to be reaffirmed by voters by 2016, and every 12 years thereafter. When the agency conducted its opinion survey, it found that 30 percent recognized the council's name, and half recognized its logo. That's not good enough. "One of our goals is to make sure people understand the issues facing children and what we're doing to help," Seltzer said. Funded almost entirely with property taxes, the agency divvies funds out to social service providers, connecting families with taxpayer-funded help. For those familiar, and those not, a public hearing will be held Monday night at 5 p.m., to give tentative approval to the council's proposed 2013-14 budget. The final vote is Sept. 19. The agency expects to bring in $61.5 million in property taxes, compared with last year's $59.4 million. The property tax rate will drop slightly, from $49.02 on every $100,000 of taxable value, to $48.82. But a house worth $100,000 in Broward rose in value 4 percent this year, to $I 04,000. Because of that, the effect of the new tax rate is still a tax increase. The bill would rise from $49.02 to $50.77. Seltzer said the agency's administration is growing slightly, from 63 employees to 66, but most of the budget's growth is in providing programs for children. Programs for family strengthening will expand. The agency focuses on families with teens who are having behavior troubles, working with the entire family. "This is one of those populations that are ripe for winding up being the lockout kids," Seltzer said. "The parents don't know where to turn anymore, so frequently they'll throw the kid out and they'll get into trouble. " Another area of expansion is in the area of "kinship," the grandmothers, grandfathers or others who are raising their relatives' children. For information go to cscbroward.org.

Sept. 5, 2013 --The Jacksonville Children's Commission (JCC), the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Florida Department of Health/Bureau of Child Nutrition Programs are partnering to provide nutritious snacks and supper meals to local children. Starting Monday, Sept. 9, children attending JCC-funded TEAM UP Nutrition Program sites will each receive a nutritious snack and supper meal before going home each day. According to the USDA, proper nutrition during early childhood has a significant effect on brain development, learning ability and health. Meal pattern requirements established by the USDA are designed to ensure that meals and snacks provided to children under these programs include the types and amounts of food req uired to meet children's daily energy and nutrient needs. The JCC will provide approximately 9,000 children with snack and supper meals each school day during after-school hours. The meals are provided through the Child Care Food Program (CCFP), a USDA-funded program. To qualify as a site th rough the CCFP program, 50 percent or more of the children attending the school must be on the free or reduced lunch program and the afterschool program must include both academic and enrichment components. Four new program locations* were added this school year, which brings the total number of meal sites throughout the city to 60.

As the President I CEO of the Children's Services Emilio Benitez Governor Appointee Council of Broward County, I work closely with all aspects of the child welfare system to ensure the local system is working well. I also oversee Sue N.

Pllilipp Governor Appointee While I was able to share some of my concerns and recommendations at the Public Hearing, I wanted to provide them to you in writing: Robert W. Runcie SIIJJerintenclent Broward County Public Sclwols 1) Child Welfare truly needs to be Community Based Care. Regions vary widely and each area needs to be able to develop its own MariaM. Sclmeider system of care. Efforts should be made to allow regions to Governor Appointee learn from one another, but Tallahassee should not try to enforce a AnuM. Valladares one-size-fits-all approach. Govemor Appointee Vacant 2) To the extent possible, enlist Sheriffs to do the Child Protective Gover/Wr Appointee Investigations, and adequately fund them regardless of whether they are run by DCF or the Sheriff. There is currently disparity in SfAFF the funding. While Broward CPIS received some additional non recurring dollars this year, they have not had a base increase in 10 Cindy J. Arenberg Seltzer years. /'resident/CEO 3) Adequately fund Community Base9 Care. While Tallahassee has LEGAL COUNSEL been focused on an "equity" formula which has resulted in a $9 million dollar loss to Broward in the last few years, the focus should John Milletlge be on "adequate" funding for all circuits. In addition, changes in Garry JoftnS0/1 2013 have added to the workload by requiring CBCs to supervise "non-judicial" cases on the front end while at the same time the legislature extended foster care to youth over 18. bbUU wesl t..:ommerc!al l:iouleuord • Lauderhill, Florida 33319 • Phone 954-377-1000 • Fax. 954-377-1683 www. cscbroward. org 4) Seek Federal Title IV-E funding for the expanded population of youth over 18 years of age that was added in the 2013 legislative session. This federal funding is available for this purpose, but to date DCF has refused to seek it. If the State does not want it, local communities investing in this arena should be allowed to seek the federal reimbursement. 5) Fund a staff position for the Community Based Alliances which provides oversight to Community Based Care. This is an unfunded mandate. 6) Look at the change in priority categories for subsidized ch ild care which came out of last year's Early Learning legislation. As a result of that legislation, children who have been identified by the Child Protection System who are over the age of 9 have fallen down the priority list and, in reality, will not be served because of wait lists for subsidized child care. I would be happy to discuss any of these items with you or any member of the de legation if that would be helpful. Thank you again for your leadership on this important issue.

As part of the IRS's ongoing effort to support leadership succession planning and experiences for its senior managers, effective September 9, 2013, I am leaving SPEC and moving down the hall in the Plantation Office to manage the Plantation Field Assistance (FA) Territory which includes nine FA offices located in South Florida (Daytona Beach and Sarasota south to Miami) and Puerto Rico. The mission of Field Assistance is to provide face-to-face assistance and facilitate self-assisted services that resolve tax issues and educate the taxpaying public. Some of the services provided include: inquiries or adjustments to a tax account; questions about IRS letters and notices; payment plans if you owe and cannot pay the full amount; and, other related tax services. Your contact with SPEC, which is the relationship manager, is not changing. I would expect a permanent replacement for my position in the near future since an IRS internal announcement for my position has been approved. Until then, on September 9, Margaret (Peggy} O'Malley from the West Palm Post of Duty will act as the Territory Manager for two weeks. You can reach Peggy by email at [email protected] and by phone at 561-616-2016.

Katrina took the time to come to our office and sit with my team to help them understand how to develop the page, how to get more exposure and provided suggestions about content, pictures and sharing information. She then met with Detra at esc to follow up and provide feedback on what we had created.
