SMART START MEASURABLY INCREASES THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF YOUNG CHILDREN, BUILDING THE FOUNDATION FOR ALL FUTURE LEARNING, BY:- IMPROVING CHILDREN'S EARLY CARE AND EDUCATION PROGRAMS SO THAT THEY ARE SAFE, HEALTHY AND PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR CHILDREN TO LEARN SKILLS THEY NEED FOR SUCCESS IN SCHOOL.- ENSURING THAT CHILDREN ARE SCREENED FOR DEVELOPMENTAL DELAYS.- PROVIDING PARENTS WITH TOOLS THAT SUPPORT THEM IN RAISING HAPPY, HEALTHY SUCCESSFUL CHILDREN.FOR A STRONG FOUNDATION, CHILDREN NEED HIGH QUALITY EARLY CARE AND EDUCATION PROGRAMS THAT ARE SAFE AND PROVIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR LEARNING; STRONG FAMILIES; AND ENVIRONMENTS THAT SUPPORT HEALTHY OUTCOMES. HIGH QUALITY EARLY EDUCATION YIELDS HIGHER GRADUATION RATES, REDUCED CRIME, HIGHER EARNINGS, LESS RELIANCE ON SOCIAL SERVICES, AND BETTER JOBS.SMART START IS A PUBLIC/PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP LED BY THE NORTH CAROLINA PARTNERSHIP FOR CHILDREN, INC. (NCPC) THAT CREATES INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS TO MEASURABLY INCREASE LEARNING AND THE HEALTHY DEVELOPMENT OF CHILDREN BIRTH TO FIVE.SEVENTY-SIX COMMUNITY-BASED, LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS SERVE ALL 100 NORTH CAROLINA COUNTIES. NCPC ESTABLISHES MEASURABLE STATEWIDE GOALS AND COMMUNITIES DETERMINE THE BEST APPROACH TO ACHIEVING THEM. NCPC ALSO ENSURES THAT SMART START LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS FULLY MEET ALL LEGISLATIVELY MANDATED REQUIREMENTS AND OPERATE TO THE HIGHEST STANDARDS OF EFFECTIVENESS, ACCOUNTABILITY, EFFICIENCY AND INTEGRITY. SINCE 2000, THERE HAVE BEEN MORE THAN 500 AUDITS, BY STATE AUDITORS AND/OR INDEPENDENT AUDITORS HIRED BY THE STATE, OF NCPC AND SMART START LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS. NCPC HAS HAD NO AUDIT FINDINGS FOR THE PAST DECADE.THERE HAVE BEEN 37 INDEPENDENTLY CONDUCTED EVALUATIONS OF SMART START, ALL WITH POSITIVE RESULTS. MOST RECENTLY (2011), DUKE UNIVERSITY RESEARCHERS FOUND:- CHILDREN HAD HIGHER THIRD GRADE READING AND MATH SCORES AND LOWER SPECIAL EDUCATION PLACEMENTS IN COUNTIES THAT RECEIVED MORE FUNDING FOR SMART START WHEN THOSE CHILDREN WERE YOUNGER.- 445,000 NORTH CAROLINA CHILDREN BIRTH THROUGH FIVE LIVE IN HOMES WHERE ALL PARENTS WORK. THAT IS 59% OF THE STATE'S YOUNGEST CHILDREN WHO RELY ON CHILD CARE PROVIDERS OR OTHER CAREGIVERS DURING A TIME OF CRITICAL BRAIN DEVELOPMENT.ADDITIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS INCLUDE:- IMPROVING QUALITY AND ACHIEVING HIGHER STARS ON NC'S RATED LICENSE THROUGH ONSITE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE, TRAINING, AND SUPPORT FOR CHILD CARE PROFESSIONALS TO OBTAIN HIGHER EDUCATION. TODAY, 70% OF CHILDREN IN CHILD CARE ATTEND HIGH QUALITY PROGRAMS AS COMPARED TO 22% IN 2001. IN FISCAL YEAR 2011-2012, 411 ONE- AND TWO-STAR CHILD CARE PROGRAMS IMPROVED THEIR STAR RATING.- IMPROVING EARLY LITERACY BY COLLABORATING WITH STATE LITERACY ORGANIZATIONS, LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS, PRIVATE CHILD CARE PROGRAMS, AND PEDIATRICIANS TO PROMOTE EARLY LITERACY ACROSS THE STATE THROUGH PROGRAMS LIKE RAISING A READER AND REACH OUT AND READ. HIGHER INVESTMENTS IN SMART START INCREASED STUDENTS' THIRD GRADE READING SCORES, ACCORDING TO A 2011 DUKE UNIVERSITY STUDY.- HELPING PRIVATE CHILD CARE PROGRAMS IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF THEIR CLASSROOMS SO THEY MAY PARTICIPATE IN NC PREK AND PARTNER WITH NC PREK PROVIDERS TO HELP ELIGIBLE FOUR-YEAR-OLDS ACCESS THE PROGRAM. IN FISCAL YEAR 2011-2012, SMART START LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS ADMINISTERED NC PREK IN 54 COUNTIES. THAT SAME YEAR 64% OF CHILDREN IN NC PREK ATTENDED A PROGRAM ADMINISTERED BY A SMART START LOCAL PARTNERSHIP. 917673 693751 THE PRIVATELY-FUNDED SHAPE NC INITIATIVE HAS LAID THE FOUNDATION FOR A COMPREHENSIVE AND COORDINATED EARLY CHILDHOOD OBESITY PREVENTION AND HEALTH PROMOTION NETWORK IN NORTH CAROLINA. AN IMPLEMENTATION TEAM OF EXPERTS HAVE COMBINED THREE DISTINCT PROGRAMS THAT FOCUS ON NUTRITION, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND OUTDOOR LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS, CREATING A MODEL THAT IS INTEGRATED AND COMPREHENSIVE. THE TEAM HAS DEVELOPED CORE CONTENT TRAINING MODULES TO DISSEMINATE THE MODEL BOTH NOW AND BEYOND THE CURRENT GRANT INVESTMENT PERIOD. IN THE SECOND PROJECT YEAR, TEN ADDITIONAL SITES WERE ADDED, FOR A TOTAL OF EIGHTEEN SITES. PROJECT ACTIVITIES ARE MANAGED AND IMPLEMENTED BY THE LOCAL SMART START PARTNERSHIP IN EACH SITE. EVERY SITE HAS DEVELOPED A LOCAL ACTION PLAN TO PREVENT EARLY CHILDHOOD OBESITY TAILORED TO THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY BY ENGAGING STAKEHOLDERS FROM HEALTH CARE, THE SCHOOL SYSTEM AND OTHER SECTORS OF THE COMMUNITY. THESE STAKEHOLDERS ARE ADDRESSING IMPROVEMENTS IN NUTRITION, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND OUTDOOR LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS. EACH SHAPE NC PARTNERSHIP ALSO HAS DESIGNATED A CHILD CARE CENTER THAT, WITH THE SUPPORT OF SHAPE NC TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND TRAINING, HAS COMMITTED TO BECOMING A MODEL EARLY LEARNING CENTER ADHERING TO BEST PRACTICE STANDARDS IN NUTRITION, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND OUTDOOR LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS. THESE CENTERS WILL SERVE AS DEMONSTRATION SITES FOR NEIGHBORING CENTERS TO MODEL.SHAPE NC OFFERS TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND COACHING EXPERTISE IN THE FORM OF FOUR SHAPE NC SPECIALISTS TO SUPPORT CHILD CARE CENTERS IN BECOMING MODEL EARLY LEARNING CENTERS. SHAPE NC SPECIALISTS PROVIDE LOCAL TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE STAFF WITH KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS TO TRAIN CHILD CARE STAFF TO IMPROVE NUTRITION, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, AND OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENTS IN CHILD CARE CENTERS. BY BUILDING THE CAPACITY OF LOCAL TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE STAFF WHO WILL CONTINUE TO BE AVAILABLE TO CENTERS ASSURES SUSTAINABILITY OF THE PROJECT AFTER THE PROJECT GRANT INVESTMENT ENDS. SHAPE NC IS HAVING IMPACT IN CHILDCARE CENTERS ACROSS THE STATE, WITH ITS REACH EXTENDING BEYOND THE CENTERS DIRECTLY PARTICIPATING IN THE PROJECT. THE FOLLOWING EXAMPLES ILLUSTRATE THIS:- SHAPE NC IS CURRENTLY SPONSORING THE HEALTHY STARTS IN EARLY CHILDHOOD CARE AND EDUCATION TRAINING SERIES, A 10-HOUR, ONLINE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY DESIGNED FOR EARLY EDUCATORS INTERESTED IN CREATING LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS THAT PROMOTE HEALTHY PRACTICES FOR YOUNG CHILDREN AND ROLE MODELING BEST PRACTICES FOR THE CHILDREN IN THEIR CARE. PARTICIPANTS WILL RECEIVE 1.0 CONTINUING EDUCATION CREDIT FROM UNC WILMINGTON UPON COMPLETION OF THE SERIES. TWO HUNDRED EARLY CHILDHOOD PROFESSIONALS ARE PARTICIPATING AND THERE IS WAITING LIST FOR THE NEXT OFFERING.- IN ONE SITE, THE MODEL EARLY LEARNING CENTER HAS INVOLVED SEVERAL LOCAL GARDENING MASTERS WHO ARE LENDING A HAND TO IMPROVE THE OUTDOOR LEARNING ENVIRONMENT AT THE CENTER. THIS SITE IS ALSO REACHING OUT TO A NUMBER OF OTHER CHILD CARE CENTERS TO MAKE IMPROVEMENTS IN THE AREAS OF NUTRITION, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, AND OUTDOOR LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS. IN THE LARGER COMMUNITY, A PARENT GROUP IS WORKING ON MAKING IMPROVEMENTS IN LOCAL PLAY GROUND AREAS. 898703 365000 THIS INITIATIVE WAS DESIGNED TO IMPROVE LEADERSHIP AND TO ENGAGE THE COMMUNITY ON BEHALF OF NORTH CAROLINA YOUNG CHILDREN.

YOUNG CHILDREN 82 PROCEDURE FOR MONITORING GRANTS IN THE U.S.: PART I, LINE 2: SCHEDULE I, PART I, LINE 2: THE NORTH CAROLINA PARTNERSHIP FOR CHILDREN, INC. (NCPC) HAS A STAFF DEDICATED TO ON-SITE FINANCIAL AND PROGRAMMATIC MONITORING OF GRANTS. POLICIES, PROCEDURES, AND MONITORING PROGRAMS HAVE BEEN IN PLACE SINCE 2001 AND ARE PERIODICALLY REVIEWED AND REVISED AS NEEDED. OF THE GRANTEES, 76 (REPRESENTING NEARLY 100% OF OUR TOTAL GRANTS) ARE NONPROFITS THAT PROVIDE SERVICES TO NORTH CAROLINA'S YOUNG CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES THROUGH NORTH CAROLINA'S EARLY CHILDHOOD INITIATIVE ("SMART START"). AS REQUIRED BY STATE LEGISLATION, THESE GRANTEES GENERALLY HAVE BIENNIAL YELLOW-BOOK AUDITS (FINANCIAL AND COMPLIANCE) BY AN INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM. ACCORDINGLY, NCPC TYPICALLY COORDINATES ITS MONITORING EFFORT WITH THAT OF THE AUDITORS AND, THEREFORE, ALSO MONITORS THESE GRANTEES. MONITORING IS RIGOROUS AND INCLUDES, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO, A REVIEW OF BOARD OF DIRECTOR OPERATIONS, FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING, AND PROGRAMMATIC COMPLIANCE. A FORMAL CLOSE-OUT CONFERENCE IS HELD WITH BOARD MEMBERS, MANAGEMENT, AND OTHER STAFF. SUBSEQUENT TO THE CLOSE-OUT CONFERENCE, A FORMAL MONITORING REPORT WITH RECOMMENDATIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT IS ISSUED TO THE GRANTEE'S BOARD CHAIR, EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. DEPENDING UPON THE NATURE AND NUMBER OF ISSUES NOTED IN THE REPORT, A MONITORING VISIT MAY BE HELD IN SIX TO EIGHT MONTHS TO FOLLOW UP ON THE STATUS OF THE ISSUES NOTED IN THE REPORT. NCPC'S EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT IS PROVIDED WITH A SUMMARY OF GRANTEE MONITORING RESULTS. SCHEDULE I, PART II, LINE 1 AGENCY FUNDS THE NCPC RECEIVED $27,928 IN FUNDS FROM THE NORTH CAROLINA STATE EMPLOYEES COMBINED CAMPAIGN (SECC). SUCH AGENCY FUNDS WERE PASSED ON TO THE RECIPIENTS LISTED ON LINE 1. HOWEVER, GRANTS MADE WITH AGENCY FUNDS ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE AMOUNTS LISTED ON LINE 1. 1 X X X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 MS STEPHANIE FANJUL 142067 0 0 0 0 0 10805 0 8316 0 161188 0 0 0 FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11 PRIOR TO FILING OF THE FORM 990, THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS PROVIDED WITH THE FORM 990 FOR REVIEW. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 12C THE NORTH CAROLINA PARTNERSHIP FOR CHILDREN, INC. (NCPC) RECOGNIZES THAT EFFECTIVE GOVERNANCE DEPENDS ON DELIBERATE, THOUGHTFUL, AND DISINTERESTED DECISION-MAKING BY ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND STAFF. MOREOVER, NCPC'S WORK DEPENDS ON THE CONTINUED TRUST AND CONFIDENCE IN ITS INTEGRITY, WHICH IS GROUNDED IN FAIR AND RESPONSIBLE DECISION-MAKING. THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF NCPC BELIEVES IT IS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF NCPC TO ESTABLISH A CLEAR AND CONCISE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY. THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY IS INTENDED TO PROMOTE THE AVOIDANCE OF CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND THE APPEARANCE OF IMPROPRIETY BY NCPC DIRECTORS, OFFICERS AND STAFF. IT SETS THE RULES FOR CONDUCT, INCLUDING DISCLOSURE BY DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS OF PERSONAL OR FINANCIAL INTERESTS THAT MAY AFFECT THE BUSINESS OF NCPC. ANNUALLY EACH MEMBER OF THE BOARD IS REQUIRED TO REVIEW A COPY OF THE POLICY AND TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT HE OR SHE HAS DONE SO. THE POLICY IS MONITORED AND ENFORCED THROUGH THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS: A. PRIOR TO ACTION ON A CONTRACT OR TRANSACTION, THE BOARD OR COMMITTEE CHAIR SHALL ASK THE GROUP TO IDENTIFY ACTUAL OR PERCEIVED CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. A DIRECTOR WHO KNOWS HE OR SHE HAS A CONFLICT OF INTEREST SHALL DISCLOSE THE CONFLICT AND SUCH DISCLOSURE SHALL BE REFLECTED IN THE MINUTES OF THE MEETING. B. ALL APPOINTED BOARD MEMBERS SHALL AVOID CONFLICTS OF INTEREST AND THE APPEARANCE OF IMPROPRIETY. SHOULD INSTANCES ARISE WHEN A CONFLICT MAY BE PERCEIVED, ANY INDIVIDUAL WHO MAY BENEFIT DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY FROM THE NCPC'S DISBURSEMENT OF FUNDS SHALL ABSTAIN FROM PARTICIPATING IN ANY DECISION OR DELIBERATIONS BY NCPC REGARDING THE DISBURSEMENT OF FUNDS. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 15 SALARIES AND WAGES OF ALL EMPLOYEES ARE SET IN ACCORDANCE WITH A FORMAL PAY PLAN WHICH INCLUDES PAY GRADES (WITH MINIMUM, MID-POINT AND MAXIMUM PAY RATES). THE PLAN WAS ORIGINALLY DEVELOPED BY AN INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT AND IS BASED ON THE NATIONAL POSITION EVALUATION PLAN PUBLISHED BY THE MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATIONS OF AMERICA. IT IS UPDATED PERIODICALLY BY BENCHMARKING PAY RATES AGAINST DATA FROM CAPITAL ASSOCIATED INDUSTRIES OF RALEIGH, NC, WHICH CONDUCTS ANNUAL SALARY SURVEYS, AND OCCUPATION-SPECIFIC AND LOCATION-SPECIFIC DATA FROM THE OCCUPATIONAL EMPLOYMENT AND WAGES STATISTICS PROGRAM OF THE EMPLOYMENT SECURITY COMMISSION OF NORTH CAROLINA. THE PLAN WILL BE REVISED PERIODICALLY TO INCLUDE DATA FROM THE RECENTLY DEVELOPED SURVEY OF SALARIES IN NORTH CAROLINA NONPROFITS SPONSORED BY THE N.C. CENTER FOR NONPROFITS. FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION C, LINE 19 GOVERNING DOCUMENTS, THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST POLICY, AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE ON THE WEBSITE OF THE NORTH CAROLINA OFFICE OF STATE AUDITOR. ADDITIONALLY, THE GOVERNANCE STRUCTURE, BOARD COMMITTEE ROLES, AND MEETING DATES ARE POSTED ON OUR WEBSITE.
