STATE OF CALIFORNIA DIANE WOODRUFF, CHANCELLOR CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY COLLEGES CHANCELLOR’S OFFICE 1102 Q STREET SACRAMENTO, CA 95811-6549 (916) 445-8752 HTTP://WWW .CCCCO.EDU September 26, 2008 TO: EOPS Directors and CARE Coordinators FROM: Cheryl Fong, State Coordinator Cooperative Agencies Resources for Education (CARE) SUBJECT: Notification of Fiscal Year 2008-2009 CARE Final Allocations Synopsis: The fiscal year 2008-2009 State Budget provides the Cooperative Agencies Resources for Education (CARE) program with $15.505 million to assist EOPS students who are welfare-dependent single parents with supplemental educational support services as a means of enhancing their academic success. Funding is provided for 111 CARE programs throughout California, including the newlyaccredited Woodland Community College. Attached are the 2008-2009 CARE Final Allocations. Due to the state’s fiscal situation, current year funding for CARE remains at the same level as last year. The State Budget does not provide additional funds for cost-of-living-adjustments or enrollment growth this year for community college categorical programs. College CARE program allocations may be affected by such factors as: 1) a significant increase in the number of students reported served; 2) a decrease in the number of students reported served; 3) onetime fiscal penalties imposed on those CARE programs returning over five percent of their base allocation to the Chancellor's Office after the close of fiscal year 2006-2007; and 4) restoration of base funding to CARE programs receiving fiscal penalties in 2007-2008. In accordance with Assembly Bill 318, Statutes of 2006 (Dymally), the Compton Community College District continues to receive its own separate allocations of general and categorical funds from the state to provide full-service programs, including CARE, at the El Camino College Compton Center. Action Requested/Date of Response: The Chancellor's Office requires approval and accounting of CARE expenditures through the use of the CARE Supplemental Budget and Accounting Form, CARE Mid-Year Report (Declaration of Unused CARE Funds and Request for CARE Reallocated Funds) and CARE Year-End Report. In addition, please note that as a supplemental service component of EOPS, all CARE program activities and staff time assignments must be accurately described in the EOPS Program Plan and EOPS Year-End Report. The required reporting and certification forms, instructions, and submission deadlines for CARE and EOPS are posted on the Chancellor's Office Student Services website at www.cccco.edu/divisions/ss/ss.htm. Please submit all CARE program reports to Cheryl Fong, State Coordinator, CARE, at the Chancellor's Office by the appropriate date. The 2008-2009 CARE Budget Approval Request is due November 15, 2008. Contact: Questions about the allocations or program requirements may be directed to Cheryl Fong, State Coordinator, CARE, at (916) 323-5954 or cfong@cccco.edu and Kelly Gornik, EOPS/CARE Program Assistant, at (916) 323-4281 or kgornik@cccco.edu.
