The Community Child Care Council of Santa Clara County has until June 30 to hand off $40-million-a-year in government contracts.

Many among the rank-and-file at the long-embattled 4C Council fear that Ben Menor will run yet another nonprofit into the ground.

Last month, 4Cs failed to pay its child care providers on time, violating the terms of their state grants and putting payees in a tough spot.

A scathing audit convinced the California Department of Education to find a more scrupulous contractor than 4Cs to manage $40 million in grants.

The federal Office of Early Head Start is investigating claims of harassment at the Community Child Care Council of Santa Clara County.
