RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Novation Contract #74–353–2 with Lifelong Medical Care, a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $118,970, to provide Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) prevention and early intervention services for the period from July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012. This Contract includes a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2012, in an amount not to exceed $59,485.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 100% by Proposition 63/MHSA. No County funds are required. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing opportunities for social engagement and linkage to mental health and social services to isolated older adults in West Contra Costa County.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On February 8, 2011, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74–353-1 with Lifelong Medical Care, for the period from July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2011, for the provision of MHSA prevention and early intervention services.

Approval of Novation Contract #74–353–2 replaces the automatic extension under the prior Contract and allows the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2012.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, isolated older adults in West Contra Costa County will have fewer resources available for social engagement and linkage to mental health and social services.
