RECOMMENDATION(S):

ACCEPT the annual report from the Health Services Department on the HIV Prevention and Needle Exchange program.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This report is informational only and there is no fiscal impact.

BACKGROUND:

The HIV Prevention/Needle Exchange program was referred to the Family and Human Services Committee in October 2002. The issue was discussed four times during 2003 and was subsequently closed. The referral was then re-opened on January 4, 2005. Since that time the Family and Human Services Committee has discussed the surrounding issues nine times. On December 14, 2015 the Family and Human Services Committee received the eleventh annual report from the Health Services Department and approved forwarding the report to the Board of Supervisors for informational purposes.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Board will not receive the annual report.
