Background and Discussion:

The County released an RFP in late 2020 to solicit applications from service providers, organizations, and

researchers to implement a three-year program.

 

Rupani Foundation was chosen to support parent training and wraparound services for families across Harris

County. The program will expand the number of families knowledgeable in child and brain development in

Harris County which will in turn support the social emotional and academic skills of young children in under

Resourced, and first generation, and immigrant communities.

 

Going into Year 2 of implementation, the Rupani Foundation is requesting to adjust their KPI targets for number of facilitators completing Brain Builders Training from 32 facilitators to 27 facilitators.

 

Expected Impact:

For this KPI adjustment, the expected impact is to have cohesion and alignment between the contract requirements and KPIs being reported.

 

Alternative Options:

Keeping current contract language will result in Rupani Foundation having misalignment of targets accounted for in the contract and KPI reporting documents.

 

Alignment with Goal(s):

_ Justice and Safety

x Economic Opportunity

_ Housing

_ Public Health

_ Transportation

_ Flooding

_ Environment

_ Governance and Customer Service
