RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract #25–012–26 with The Center for Common Concerns, Inc. (dba HomeBase), a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $189,050, to provide consultation and technical assistance to the Department with regard to the Homeless Program’s Continuum of Care planning and resource development, for the period from October 1, 2012 through September 30, 2013.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 47% by Federal Medi-Cal Administrative Activities (MAA) and 53% by budgeted County General funds. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

On October 11, 2011, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #25–012–22 (as amended by subsequent Amendments #25-012-23 through #25-012-25) with The Center for Common Concerns, Inc. (dba HomeBase), for the period from October 1, 2011 through September 30, 2012, for the provision of consultation and technical assistance to the Department with regard to the Homeless Continuum of Care planning and resource development, including grant-writing services for County’s McKinney-Vento application.
Approval of Contract #25–012–26 will allow the Contractor to continue providing services through September 30, 2013.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, County will no longer have the expertise needed to meet all federal guidelines to secure maximum McKinney-Vento funding required to implement the 10-year plan to eliminate homelessness in Contra Costa County.
