ITEM TITLE:
Title
Motion 26-291, approving and approving the County Executive to execute the Department of Children, Youth and Families Contract for Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program Services
body
DEPARTMENT: Human Services
ORIGINATOR: Laurie Bain-Smith
EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION: Approved by Lacey Harper 7/16/2026
PURPOSE: Approve and authorize the County Executive to sign WA State DCYF ECEAP Contract 27-1073.
BACKGROUND: ECEAP Contract 27-1073 with the Washington State Department of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF) is for the period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 in the amount of $20,330,759.
Established by the Legislature in 1985, ECEAP is a comprehensive school-readiness program serving low-income and at-risk 3- and 4-year-old children and their families in Washington state. Because many factors affect a child’s development and learning ability, ECEAP provides preschool education, health services coordination, nutrition, family support and parent engagement.
This Program will provide services to 1,598 children in Snohomish County - 1,060 Part-Day slots and 538 School-Day slots, including funds for specialized services for children with complex needs (ECLIPSE and Complex Needs Funds).
This Contract was included in the 2026 Human Services Grant Work Plan; however, the award exceeds the amount included in the Grant Work Plan by more than $100,000, thus requiring Council approval.
