Abstract: Since 1998, early childhood education and support services were funded by 50-cents-per-pack tobacco tax through Proposition 10 funding in California. In November, 2016, another proposal was endorsed by voters to add $2.00-per-pack tobacco tax for purposes unrelated to early childhood services, yet the decline of cigarette consumption will inevitably impact the existing programs funded by Proposition 10. In Fiscal Year 2016-17, First 5 Kern administered over $9 million of the state funding to support 42 programs in Child Health, Family Functioning, and Child Development across Kern County. This report is grounded on a model of result-based accountability to document outcomes of the local service delivery with less per-capital funding from the state. Despite the seemingly equal fund distribution based on the rate of live birth in each county, Kern County is the third largest county in California by land area, and more spending is needed to fund program outreach across a region as large as the state of New Jersey. To justify the state investment and sustain the service improvement, a five-chapter structure has been incorporated in this report to evaluate the funding impact on child well-being this year: Chapter 1 highlights features of First 5 Kern support at the Commission level; Chapter 2 provides program-specific findings that impact children ages 0-5 and their families; Chapter 3 describes results of partnership collaboration to strengthen the system building for service integration; Chapter 4 includes longitudinal results from the Core Data Elements (CDE) survey and Family Stability Rubric (FSR) to describe sustainable accomplishments through the ongoing service improvements. This report ends with Chapter 5: Conclusions and Future Directions to review past recommendations and introduce new recommendations for next year. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches were taken to address three key questions: (1) How much has been done in local child support; (2) How well did the programs perform this year? (3) Are any children and families better off? The report includes two appendices, 26 figures, 78 tables, and 116 reference items.
