RECOMMENDATION
AGENDA REPORT
Staff Recommends That The City Council Adopt A Resolution Authorizing The City Administrator To Negotiate And Execute Grant Agreements Between The City Of Oakland And Various Non-Profit And Public Agencies To Provide Direct Services For Children And Youth In An Amount Not To Exceed $17,817,382 For Fiscal Year 2022-2023, With An Option To Approve One-Year Grant Renewals In Fiscal Years 2023-2024 And 2024-2025 Pending Council Approval.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Oakland Fund for Children and Youth (OFCY) Planning and Oversight Committee (POC) requests that City Council approve the proposed resolution authorizing grant agreements for 135 programs, recommended for funding through the Kids First Children’s Fund in the amount of $17,817,382, for Fiscal Year (FY) 2022-2023. The grants are recommended to implement the OFCY 2022-2025 Strategic Investment Plan and the first year of OFCY’s three-year grant cycle.
This grant level is recommended based on current projection of annual revenues available.
Grant awards will increase funding for youth jobs through career awareness and employment programs operating year round and during the summer; fund comprehensive afterschool programs at 54 Oakland public elementary and middle schools for 6,000 students to participate in academic and enrichment programs at their school sites free of charge; provide targeted support to over 500 high-need students in middle school with mentoring, academic support and trauma-informed health and wellness programming, and support broader citywide efforts to reduce rates of violence through the new programs funded through the Violence Prevention funding strategy for nearly 500 youth ages 11-21.

BACKGROUND / LEGISLATIVE HISTORY
The Kids First! Oakland Children’s Fund Amendment in the Oakland City Charter establishes the Fund for the purpose of addressing the well-being of Oakland children and youth from birth through age 21 for the period July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2033. Article XIII Section 1305.04 assigned the Planning and Oversight Committee (POC) the responsibility to adopt a three-year Strategic Investment Plan, solicit grants through an open and fair application process, send recommendations for grant awards to the City Council for approval and submit an annual independent evaluation of OFCY to the Oakland City Council for adoption. The legislation requires that three percent (3%) of general purpose funds be set aside as annual revenues to the Fund, along with interest accrued and any unspent funds from prior years, and appropriated to the Fund. Ninety percent (90%) of the Fund is made available for grants to non-profit and public agencies to address the well-being of Oakland children and youth from birth through age
21. Ten percent (10%) is available for administration and evaluation.
The four goals outlined in Kids First are: 1) Support the healthy development of young children; 2) Help children and youth succeed in school and graduate high school; 3) Prevent violence and reduce youth involvement in crime and gangs; and 4) Help youth transition to productive adulthood. OFCY is overseen by a 17-member Committee composed of eight (8) youth and nine (9) adult members. Each City Councilmember appoints one youth and one adult to the POC, while the mayor appoints one individual.
The POC is responsible for the completion of a three-year Strategic Investment Plan and the selection of a recommended grants package for City Council’s approval through an open and fair application process. The OFCY Strategic Investment Plan (2022-2025) was approved by the City Council on December 7, 2021 (Resolution No. 88929 C.M.S.). It presents eleven strategic funding areas selected to address the well-being of Oakland’s children and youth and can be accessed at www.ofcy.org/strategic-planning/strategic-plan .
The 2022-2025 OFCY Request for Proposals (RFP) was developed based on the eleven strategy areas approved in the Strategic Investment Plan and was released in January 2022 for the three-year OFCY grant cycle beginning July 1, 2022. The second and third year of grant awards are subject to available funding and council approval. Two hundred and forty-six (246) applications were received in response to the RFP. The POC approved a recommendation to award 135 grants totaling $17,817,382 on May 9, 2022.
ANALYSIS AND POLICY ALTERNATIVES
Open and Fair Application Process
The POC develops a Three-Year Strategic Investment Plan to guide an “open and fair” application process (Oakland City Charter, Section 1306) for the selection of grant awards to non-profit and public agencies. The RFP, based on the OFCY 2022-2025 Strategic Investment Plan, provided descriptions for each funding strategy and detailed instructions for the application process and was released January 10, 2022. The Strategic Investment Plan and RFP detailed Edward D. Reiskin, City Administrator

an Equity Framework to guide investments and prioritize support for programs reaching African American children, youth and families, Latinx children and families, and Pacific Islander and Native American communities. The framework also directs funding to communities and neighborhoods facing the greatest disparities as detailed in the Human Services Department’s
stressor map, and in support of children and youth facing multiple barriers, including Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ) youth, immigrants and refugees, children experiencing homelessness, children and youth with disabilities, and transition age youth disconnected from school and employment. The Equity Framework is included as Attachment E.
The RFP was widely distributed through OFCY’s email distribution to nearly 2,000 addresses; advertised in local newspapers including the Oakland Post, El Mundo, Oakland Tribune, and the San Francisco Chronicle; promoted through a City press release; and shared through city partners including the Department of Violence Prevention (DVP) and the Oakland Workforce Development Board (OWDB). OFCY held a pre-proposal meeting via Zoom with 260 attendees. OFCY also hosted two grant writing workshops attended by 51 individuals, and hosted two technical assistance workshops to help potential applicants navigate the online application process that were attended by 111 individuals. In addition, OFCY provided technical assistance via email and posted responses to the OFCY website, providing responses to 119 questions posed by applicants.
There was a high level of participation in the funding process and applications requested $20 million more in annual funding than could be supported by funding available. Table 1 provides a summary comparing requested funding to recommended awards.

Difference 111 61 $20,009,865
OFCY received 246 grant applications requesting $37,827,247 in annual funding support from 139 different agencies by the RFP deadline of 5pm on February 22, 2022. All 246 applications received were reviewed by OFCY staff for completeness before moving on to review. Following completeness review, seventeen (17) applications were not reviewed because they were incomplete applications that did not meet the requirements for an application to move forward in the review process.
After the technical review by staff for accuracy and completeness, 229 qualified proposals were reviewed and scored by reviewers based on the point system in the RFP. OFCY recruited over 50 volunteers with knowledge of child and youth development and familiarity with Oakland to read and score applications. Reviewers included community members, public partner representatives, and children and youth development staff from other local governments, among others.

Reviewers were trained via two live meetings or via a recorded webinar to orient them to the RFP and review process. Reviewers were required to confirm they did not have conflict of
interest for each application reviewed before getting access to application materials, and used the scoring criteria provided in the RFP to assign each application a score up to 100 points.
The average of reviewer scores was used to rank applications submitted under each of the funding strategies identified in the Plan and RFP. A minimum average score of 70 points was required for the application to be moved forward for consideration by an ad-hoc Review Subcommittee of the Planning and Oversight Committee. Of the 229 qualified applications, 206 received average scores of 70 or above and were moved on to the POC Ad-hoc Review Subcommittee for consideration.
The City of Oakland’s Department of Workplace and Employment Standards (DWES) also reviewed agency’s applications for preference points related to certification as a Local, Small or Very Small Local Business Enterprise (L/SLBE), demonstration of Oakland resident work force and length of time in Oakland. Of the 246 applications submitted from 139 different lead agencies, DWES found two agencies currently eligible for L/SLBE preference points.
The Ad-hoc Review Subcommittee held three meetings to consider funding for applications.
Applications were primarily based on the ranking of proposals by funding strategy, but also included consideration of the applicant’s proposed demographics to be served, location of services, and reasonableness and feasibility of budget and activities, along with past performance for currently funded programs. The subcommittee also considered the concentration and distribution of funding within strategies and the alignment of funds in concert with other funding entities supporting programming in Oakland including First 5 of Alameda, the Department of Violence Prevention, and the Oakland Workforce Development Board. The committee focused on support for Oakland-based agencies and programs that served priority populations and geographies identified in the Equity Framework, particularly programs dedicated to serving Oakland’s African American children, youth and families.
The POC Ad-hoc Review Subcommittee presented their recommendation to award 135 grant proposals to 70 different lead agencies for total annual funding of $17,817,382 to the full body of the POC on May 9, 2022 at a public meeting hosted virtually on Zoom. The POC approved a motion to support the recommendation from the ad-hoc Review Subcommittee and presents that recommendation to the City Council for adoption.

Summary of Recommendations by Funding Strategy
Strategy #1: Social Emotional Well-being in Early Childhood OFCY funding through this strategy will support the social emotional well-being in early childhood by investing in a range of program models that strengthen the capacity of parents and caregivers to support the healthy development of young children. Programs will provide direct support for children and families who are stressed by traumatic events and who are in need of mental health services and referrals. Programs support social and emotional wellness and skill building among parents and teachers to support the social emotional and mental health of infants, toddlers and young children.
The RFP projected $500,000 to $600,000 available annually for grants through this strategy.
The Ad-Hoc Review Committee reviewed seven proposals requesting funding in this strategy area requesting $1,275,618 in support. OFCY recommends funding for three programs with grants totaling $600,000 to reach an estimated 2,035 young children and 1,384 parents and caregivers.
• Lincoln - Early Childhood Mental Health Collaborative - $300,000 • Jewish Family & Community Services East Bay - Integrated Early Childhood Consultation Program - $175,000

The strategy supports violence prevention education, peer leadership, restorative justice, and healing practices that help youth build mastery of anti-violence competencies. Supported programs offer more targeted resources toward trauma informed and healing centered programming for youth who are exposed to trauma and/or live in neighborhoods with high levels of violence, and youth who are at risk of involvement with the juvenile justice system and can support youth’s well-being and their social emotional and mental health.
The RFP projected $700,000 to $800,000 available annually for grants through this strategy.
OFCY reviewed four (4) qualified proposals requesting funding support in the strategy, with grant requests totaling $847,436. OFCY is recommending funding for the four programs, with annual funding totaling $780,000.
• Community & Youth Outreach Inc - CYO Inc Healthy Wealthy Wise - $225,000 • The Mentoring Center - TMC's Transformative Youth Violence Prevention Program - $190,000 • United Roots - UR Music - $125,000
• Youth ALIVE! - Teens on Target - $240,000
#10 Career Access and Employment for Opportunity Youth
This strategy supports programming that provides holistic support and sustainable opportunities for employment and transitions to adulthood for older youth ages 16-21. Programming focuses on connecting opportunity youth (those not enrolled in school or employed) to supported training and employment and re-engagement to education at the stage most appropriate and suited for the youth. The strategy supports programs for opportunity youth that have foundational workforce skill building elements and including innovative programming and new opportunities such as apprenticeships. Programs provide appropriate and needed wraparound support services to reconnect youth by addressing a variety of other barriers including housing instability, immediate financial needs, family, system involvement, and mental health and substance dependency.

#11 Career Access and Employment for Youth in School
This strategy ensures equitable opportunity for high school students by providing subsidized employment opportunities year-round. Programming is aligned to OUSD’s Linked Learning and work over the years to build out strong industry-aligned high-school workforce programming and supports the goal of providing in-school youth with opportunities to learn about industries and employment and what is required to gain these jobs. Programs provide job shadowing, work experience, industry-aligned training, and other youth workforce engagement activities to build skills, knowledge and abilities of Oakland youth. Through this strategy, youth learn the educational pathways required to obtain living-wage jobs and the career pathways available in Oakland’s priority industry sectors.
The RFP projected $830,000 to $930,000 available annually for grants through this strategy.
OFCY reviewed twelve (12) qualified proposals requesting funding support in the strategy, with grant requests totaling $2,291,447. OFCY is recommending funding for five (5) programs, with annual funding totaling $935,000.

Agency Summary
The grant recommendation for 135 programs will provide funding to seventy (70) distinct agencies. The vast majority of agencies to be funded are 501c3 non-profit agencies as seen in Table 3.
Table 3: Agency Type
Agency Type # %
501(c)(3) Non-Profit 64 91%
Government Agency 4 6%
Fiscally Sponsored Initiative 2 3%
As part of the review process, the City of Oakland’s Department of Workplace and Employment Standards (DWES) also reviewed agency’s applications for preference points related to certification as a Local, Small or Very Small Local Business Enterprise (L/SLBE), demonstration of Oakland resident work force, and length of time in Oakland. Of the 246 applications submitted from 139 different lead agencies, DWES found two agencies currently eligible for L/SLBE preference points.
Ninety percent of the agencies recommended for funding are Oakland-based (63 out of 70).
OFCY is recommending program grants to seven agencies with headquarters in the greater Bay Area but outside of Oakland due to the specific services that they are able to provide.
Programming to be supported by these agencies include mental health consultations to parents, caregivers and educators in early childhood; recreational opportunities for youth with disabilities, workforce development programming for female-identified opportunity youth, afterschool programming, afterschool sports, support for immigrant and refugee children and families, and mental health support for children with socioemotional issues and their families.

OFCY Support for Oakland Unified School District (OUSD)
OFCY grants strongly support the work of OUSD through direct grants and through grants to community based agencies providing services to OUSD students on OUSD school sites. This cycle, the funding recommended will support three OUSD programs directly with grants totaling $450,000 annually:
• Oakland International High School - Newcomer Youth Wellness & Leadership Initiative - $75,000 • Oakland Unified School District - Student Engagement in Restorative Justice - $150,000 • Oakland Unified School District - Exploring College, Career, and Community Options (ECCCO) - $225,000
Beyond these grants directly to the district, programs recommended for funding project that 57% (188 out of 329) of the service sites will be located at an OUSD child development center, elementary, middle, or high school site. Many sites have more than one OFCY funded program recommended for support; the majority of these sites are high schools. Overall, OFCY programs are recommended at 90 different OUSD sites (Child Development Centers are considered separate sites, even as they are co-located at elementary, middle, and high school sites). The list below shows the OUSD school sites that have five or more OFCY recommended programs proposing services on site in FY 2022-2023:
School Name - # of OFCY programs on site
• Madison Park Academy - 8
• Coliseum College Prep Academy - 7

Projected Demographics of Children and Youth to be Served
Programs recommended for funding project to reach 21,484 children and youth 0-21 years of age, and 3,563 parents and caregivers. Due to reductions in recommended funding compared to funding requested, there will be revisions to scopes of work and projected service levels and most likely a reduction in overall numbers projected to be reached in FY 2022-2023.
Programs project that 43% of children and youth to be served will be Latinx, 31.3% will be Black or African American, and 10.6% will be Asian. Chart 1 shows the projected children and youth to be served by race/ ethnicity. Compared to Oakland’s general population, OFCY programs Edward D. Reiskin, City Administrator

Priority List of Programs Recommended when Additional Funds are Identified
The funding process was highly competitive. There were 206 applications that were reviewed and scored, with average scores of 70 and above. The recommendation to support 135 program grants for FY 2022-2023 means that there were seventy-one (71) applications that were competitive, but not selected for funding. The POC has prioritized nineteen (19) of these applicants and recommends that if and when additional funding is identified or made available, programs identified on this priority list be considered for additional grant awards based on the additional funding available. OFCY expects to have updated funding projections for FY2022- 2023 from the Budget Office in mid-May 2022. The POC review committee will be able to reconvene in late May to make new recommendations for additional grant awards once other revenue is verified and incorporate the recommendations into the agenda report as a supplemental report and recommended action for Oakland City Council for the June 7, 2022 council meeting. The Priority List is included as Attachment F.

Policy Alternatives
Alternative The City Council may reject the recommendation to approve grant awards for 135 programs with annual funding totaling $17,817,382.
Pro The Council may request the POC to reconsider the package and address different or additional funding priorities.
Con Requiring the POC to reconsider the recommendations will delay Council action to approve grant awards for FY2022-2023 to July and possibly September 2022 and may delay the start of programming that supports children, youth and families.
Reason for Not
Recommending
The RFP is based on the Council’s approved Strategic Investment Plan.
POC’s recommendation is based on an open and fair competitive process conducted with considerable time and attention by the appointed POC members and staff. If programs are not approved by Council until September, after school and community programs that support children, youth, and families may be delayed by months, and programs operating solely in the summer months may not be funded for direct services.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total project cost of these grant agreements is $17,817,382 for FY 2022-2023. Kids First legislation requires that 90% of funds be used for direct services for children and youth through the award process. The City of Oakland Proposed Budget FY 2022-2023 identifies $19,899,382 in FY 2022-2023 for the Kids First Children’s Fund, of which 90% or $17,909,669 is available for grants in FY 2022-2023.

COORDINATION
This report and the proposed legislation have been reviewed by the Office of the City Attorney and Budget Bureau.
PAST PERFORMANCE, EVALUATION AND FOLLOW-UP
OFCY grant programs are evaluated annually by an independent consultant. The evaluation includes assessment of program quality and outcomes for children and youth. Program targets for youth enrollment, hours and duration of service, and types of activities are captured in the Cityspan grants management database and assessed in the annual evaluation process. The new evaluator for OFCY FY 2022-2023 programs will be established through a competitive process in summer 2022.
SUSTAINABLE OPPORTUNITIES
Economic: OFCY funding will provide employment opportunities through 70 agencies that are overwhelmingly Oakland-based, employ local staff, and have a positive economic impact. In addition, OFCY funds are used to leverage and match additional local, state, federal, and private philanthropic funds, bringing additional resources into Oakland.
Environmental: Proposals and supporting documentation for the OFCY 2022-2025 RFP were submitted entirely online, and no hard copies were required, greatly reducing the volume of paper submitted, environmental costs associated with the delivery of the applications, and reduction of current storage and future archiving needs. Multiple programs recommended for funding directly support environmental justice and stewardship.
Race and Equity: OFCY prioritizes funding for services that reach youth with the greatest needs and who experience the most disparate outcomes. A Community Needs Assessment / Racial Equity Analysis was developed through the strategic planning for FY2022-2025 and can be accessed at https://www.ofcy.org/assets/Uploads/OFCY-CNA-REA-Final-10.15.21.pdf .
OFCY funding strategies prioritized programming for African American children, youth and families, as well as Latinx youth and families. In addition, the funding prioritized support for Pacific Islander and Native American children and youth, and for programming located in East Oakland, Fruitvale, and West Oakland. Programs are intended to provide children, youth and families that may not otherwise have the ability to participate in enriching, academically supportive, socially engaging, and career-supporting programming free of charge.
The following citywide priorities are supported by this work:
1. Holistic community safety
2. Housing, economic, and cultural security

Specific communities in Oakland continue to face disproportionate and compounding burdens.
Black/African American and Latinx youth are the most likely to live in poverty and reside in low- income neighborhoods, which in turn have less access to early childhood development opportunities, greater environmental stressors (such as increased pollution and unsafe street crossings), fewer parks and safe places to play, fewer affordable grocery stores with healthy food, limited resources available to local schools, more exposure to violence and interaction with police, and fewer living-wage job opportunities.
Insufficient income has a negative impact on the social determinants of health, academic achievement, personal development, and well-being of children and youth in Oakland, disproportionately affecting youth of color in the flats of East, Central, and West Oakland. These communities have the highest poverty rates overall and as a proportion of African American (23.8%), Native American (21.8%), and Latinx (20.6%) children and youth.
Black/African American youth in particular are facing challenges on all sides, and are disproportionately represented among foster children, children with disabilities, children and youth who are sexually exploited, who are housing insecure, chronically absent from school, facing suspension from school, and likely to be disconnected from both school and work as they transition to adulthood.
There are additional communities that also face ongoing challenges that require targeted approaches. Available disaggregated data and community engagement findings reveal important nuances in the needs of different communities. For example, while students identifying as Asian have the lowest rates of chronic absenteeism as a whole, Pacific Islander students whose data are often folded into the larger category of Asian have the highest rates of chronic absenteeism in OUSD. At the same time, the population of Native American children and youth is relatively small and cannot be reported to preserve student confidentiality.
in Oakland. While the overall, desired vision is that all children and youth will thrive, as a public investment, OFCY prioritizes services and programs for those with the most need and least access. OFCY works toward an equitable city by funding strategies designed to support more equitable outcomes.

Equity
1) will focus funding to address the needs of Black and Latinx youth and families who bear the most disproportionate burdens and face the most compounding stressors. 2) Funding will serve low-income children and youth, ensuring that investments reach specific communities of color, including Pacific Islanders, and Native Americans, OFCY will support culturally-responsive approaches to services.
3) OFCY will target funding by place. Given the dramatic disparities that exist between different neighborhoods, a place-based approach is crucial to ensure that resources are reaching the target populations. Investments should be directed into the neighborhoods and schools where these youth live and attend. The Human Services Department (HSD) stressor map is used to identify gaps and needs in a graphic manner which helps communities prioritize funding for direct services to communities in East, Central, and West Oakland. 4) OFCY recognizes the need to channel funds to youth facing multiple barriers that often intersect and heighten risk and drive
