and presented them with artwork by children from our centers. New members, Phyllis Mitchell, Adanma Akujieze, and
Terry Heintzelman, were welcomed!
B. HS/EHS DRS Grant Update In mid-April, we received verbal and written notice that our HS/EHS Grant for 2015-16 has been approved to move on
to the contract negotiations part of the application process. This is absolutely not a guarantee of a final grant approval
and we are not to make any announcements that our application has been approved. At this point in time, we’re waiting
for a contract negotiation call.
C. OCDEL EHS-CC Grant Application To date, we haven’t received notification from OCDEL. If needed, a request for vote by email will be sent to board
members.
D. MIECHV Grant Application We are applying for additional funding through the Mothers, Infants, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Grant. Funds
would be for enhancements of current Healthy Families America and Early Head Start services, not to serve additional
families. Terry Heintzelman made a motion to approve the submission of the grant application. Kathy Guyer
seconded the motion, which was unanimously approved.
E. Pre-K Counts Grant Application We will be applying for additional funding for Pre-K Counts (due June 15th), adding several more classes (80 slots).
V. Head Start/Early Head Start Monitoring, Financial, Credit Card Reports The board was provided with the March Financial and Credit Card Reports. Marilyn Huff made a motion to approve the
reports. Shirley Spangler seconded the motion, which was unanimously approved.
VI. ADJOURN Michael Redding made a motion to adjourn the meeting at 7:50 p.m. David Fassett seconded the motion, which was
unanimously approved.
END - MINUTES

III. Announcements A. Update on PA Budget: All projections are that the budget will not be signed by June 30
th, and that it is likely it will be mid-
August when a compromise is achieved. State funded programs will not receive funding starting July 1st. OCDEL has been
working to get approval that any federal flow-through funds will still be processed, which is a small portion of CCIS funds.
In anticipation of this occurrence, we are working with our bank to be sure that our Line of Credit is sufficient in case we
need it. Because we have multiple funding sources, have reduced expenses, and are looking at ending our 2014-15 fiscal
year with a positive balance, we are in good shape to weather these uncertain times.
B. The new Enrollment/Outreach Manager has been selected. Deb Field, current enrollment manager supervisor, interviewed
for the position. She has 21 years of experience and a bachelor’s degree in business/marketing.
C. We will be out of the Taylor Park location by the end of June, except the playground and fencing. We have literally taken
everything out, including the kitchen sink!
D. SKCC has been transformed into the Center for School-age Development! Much hard work went into the project and the
children love the new space.

B. Updates on Grant Applications 1. The PA preschool grants proposals were submitted. OCDEL received letters of intent for approximately double the
amount of funding and slots that are in the Governor’s Budget. The proposals were due by June 15th
and OCDEL is
planning to contact the successful grantees starting mid-July. The successful grantees will be notified of the
preliminary award amount so that they can start recruitment/enrollment of families and finalize start-up planning.
However, the final approval/contracting will not occur until the State budget is passed and any funds that are spent
by grantees prior to the finalized State budget will not be reimbursed. We are requesting the following:
a. Pre-K Counts – $850,000 in Pennsylvania Pre-K Counts (PKC) funding to serve 100 children in 5 full-day
PKC classrooms in Snyder, Union, and Mifflin Counties:
i. Snyder County:
a. In collaboration with Midd-West School District (MWSD) locate one PKC class at West
Snyder Elementary School to provide 20 full-day (5 hours/day) slots, 180 days/year,
following the MWSD calendar.
b. Selinsgrove Area School District (SASD): locate one PKC class at SUMCD’s Susquehanna
Children’s Center (SCC) to provide 20 full-day (up to 12 hours/day), full-year (252 days/year)
slots by braiding PKC, CCIS, and parent co-pay funds.
ii. Union County: Mifflinburg Area School District (MASD): Locate one PKC class at SUMCD’s
Mifflinburg Children’s Center (MCC) to provide 20 full-day (up to 12 hours/day), full-year (252
days/year) slots by braiding PKC, CCIS, and parent co-pay funds.
iii. Mifflin County: Mifflin County School District (MCSD):
a. In collaboration with the MCSD, locate one PKC class at the Lewistown Elementary School
to provide 20 full-day (5 hours/day) slots, 180 days/year, following the MCSD calendar,
serving Lewistown and East Derry Township residents.
b. Locate one PKC class at SUMCD’s Strodes Mills/McVeytown Head Start site to provide 20
full-day (5 hours/day) slots, 180 days/year, following the MCSD calendar, serving west
Mifflin County.
b. Head Start Supplemental Assistance Program (HSSAP) – $363,000 in HSSAP funding to reinstate 40
federally funded Head Start (HS) slots decreased in our 2015-16 grant. SUMCD is proposing the following 3
HSSAP classrooms, serving 40 children:
i. In collaboration with the Mifflinburg Area School District, Union County, one center-based class of
20 children, 4 hours/day, with a 175-day stretch calendar, located in the Mifflinburg Elementary
School.
ii. One center-based class of 10 HSSAP children and 10 federally funded HS children, 4 hours/day, with
a 175-day stretch calendar, located in McVeytown/Strodes Mills, in the Mifflin County School
District, Mifflin County.
iii. In collaboration with the Tuscarora Intermediate Unit (TIU), one center-based inclusion model class
of 10 HSSAP children and 10 TIU funded children with IEPs, 4 hours/day, with a 180-day stretch
Page 6
calendar, located in the TIU building in Lewistown, in the Mifflin County School District, Mifflin
County.
2. DRS Grant: Jane inquired about the status and got an email back that it had been forwarded for processing. There
were some clarification questions but there were no “negotiations” prior to it being processed. We have not received
the signed “official” Notice of Award (NOA), but it is not unusual for that to arrive around a week before the new
grant year. We still don’t know if the grant will be changed to July – June, or if it will remain April-March.
3. MIECHV Grant: This year was a competitive grant. We requested an expansion of only a couple of additional EHS
slots in Snyder County. The majority of changes to our current MIECHV HFA and EHS were requests for
enhancements of family services. OCDEL indicated that they would be contacting agencies in June regarding their
funding awards. We received an additional $65,958 for a total grant of $551,856.
VI. New Business
A. Approval of Union County Community Development Block Grant Application (ACTION) Board approval is requested to apply for a Community Development Block Grant from Union County in the amount of

A Notice of Proposed Rule Making (NPRM) to revise the Head Start Program Performance Standards was published in
the Federal Register on Friday, June 19, 2015. The central goal of this NPRM is to strengthen program performance
standards so that all programs provide the highest quality comprehensive services.
C. Committees of the Board 1. Human Resources Committee: To develop policies, to assist the Board president in the supervision of the Chief
Executive Officer, to assist the Chief Executive Officer in the hiring and termination of personnel, and to participate
in personnel management according to the process outlined in the Personnel Policies and Procedures.

3. Program Committee: To evaluate the programs offered by the corporation and to assist in the development of new or

This report has been converted from a 12 month report (4/1/14 - 3/31/15) to a 15 month report (4/1/14 - 6/30/15) to include a 3 month
extension. Personnel and Benefit Costs are slightly under budget because of temporarily reallocating some staff assisting with PKC start
up. HS/EHS-CC subsidies budget for the year is $61,880. As of March 31, 2015 we have expenses of $101,765 due in large part to
parents that work part of the week so CCIS only subsidizes those days. Head Start funds are needed to pay for the remaining days in
order to maintain their child in 5 days/week HS services. (April figures were not available at the time of this reporting.)
Occupancy costs are 92% as of the end of April. This overage is being offset by the savings in Personnel and Benefit costs.
These are unaudited expenses and revenues as of April 30, 2015.

IX. Child Care A. Narrative
Efficiencies are high this summer at all four sites and all four camps.
LCC is at “waitlist only” status for all classrooms and age groups. Wait lists for the Fall look good for both PS
and I/T.
MCC currently is full in PS, with 98% efficiency in the infant/toddler rooms.
Page 20
SCC has spaces available in PS and the toddler room.
LCCO is full in all classrooms, with waitlists rebuilding. (We brought in a lot of waitlisted families when PKC
ended this Spring).
Summer camps: Camp enrollments are high. Lewisburg is at “waitlist status.” Lewistown, Selinsgrove, and
Mifflinburg camps are full on most days with a few openings on spot days.
X. CCIS Encumbrance Report/CCIS Update
A. CCIS News
First I would like to say Thank You for allowing me the opportunity to continue serving families in the
Juniata/Mifflin/Snyder/Union Counties, by being the CCIS Director. On May 20th
2015, I travelled to Harrisburg for a meeting
with all the CCIS directors across PA, along with many OCDEL and Regional Subsidized Child Care Administrators. This was
the first in a very long time for CCIS directors to meet face to face. It was a great day of discussion and some exciting
announcements.
I returned from the meeting with excitement! There are some upcoming changes to CCIS. These changes are due to federal
child care block grant re-authorization. Pennsylvania is working to start some of these changes in preparation for changes that
are in process at the federal level. I feel extremely optimistic that these suggested changes will benefit families and quality child
care providers. The term “FAMILY FRIENDLY POLICIES” was used throughout the day and in my personal opinion, I
believe the term is accurate. Some of the policies will be one year Redeterminations, which means families will be eligible for
one full year, only a job loss will hinder the eligibility and even with the job loss, the family will have 90 days of continued paid
child care, to search for a new job. The 25 day absence is also being changed but at this point no number of proposed days was
given. There are many changes in the child care provider side of CCIS as well. Unregulated care is changing dramatically,
meaning, other than relatives, all child care providers will have to be licensed and ALL child care providers will have to be
inspected! These are just a few of the changes and in the CCIS world these are huge changes. Other things that are being
addressed are of course provider rates, which other than Stars add-ons, have not been changed in many years. This has become
a burden on child care providers and also parents, as providers are beginning to limit CCIS families or adding ‘extra’ costs to
parents to help defray costs. All of the CCIS directors including myself finally felt that someone is hearing the concerns that
have been communicated for far too long!
It is currently unclear when all of these policies will take effect. Some of these changes will be as soon as late fall and some will
take up to a year or more to roll out completely. In a world of hundreds of state regulations to stay eligible, I am sure you can
tell by now this will be a very different mindset. I am thrilled to be part of CCIS in this time of change, as you can tell already I
believe these changes will benefit parents and keep children in quality child care, which will benefit these children and families
immeasurably!!
