Durham’s Partnership for Children has developed policies and procedures for the monitoring of Direct Service Providers in order to comply with grantor requirements.  Moreover, to ensure that Durham’s Partnership for Children works effectively with Service Providers to achieve our common goal of helping every child in Durham County enter school healthy and ready to learn, the following policies and procedures have been adopted by the Partnership Board of Directors:

1. The Partnership will ensure accountability by monitoring activities in compliance with grantor requirements.
2. Monitoring of SPs will be adequately documented to substantiate the work performed, issues noted and resolution of issues.
3. The Executive Director or Program Coordinator will provide periodic reports to the Board of Directors summarizing the SPs monitored, issues and resolution of issues. 
4. Issues of noncompliance that cannot be resolved through the monitoring process will be referred to the Board of Directors for determination of further action(s) to be taken.

Policies and procedures will be reviewed periodically to make sure they reflect best practices and are consistent with the goals and objectives of Durham’s Partnership for Children.
