RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County, Amendment Agreement #29-520-13 with the Pittsburg Unified School District, an educational institution, to amend Interagency Agreement #29-520-12, effective July 1, 2020, to increase the amount payable to the County by $150,000, from $154,500 to a new amount not to exceed $304,500 to provide additional mental health intervention services for agency-designated, severely emotionally disturbed Special Education students in East County for the period from July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this amendment will result in an increased funding to the County in an amount not to exceed $150,000 for this fiscal year. No County match is required.

BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa Behavioral Health Services Division/Mental Health in collaboration with Lincoln Child Center and Pittsburg Unified School District implemented the Petite Academy Program to provide mental health services for the seriously emotionally disturbed youth and families who live in East County.

On October 13, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Interagency Agreement #29-520-12 with Pittsburg Unified School District to pay the County for providing mental health intervention services, to agency-designated, severely emotionally disturbed Special Education students for the period July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021.

Approval of Amendment Agreement #29-520-13 will allow the Pittsburg Unified School District to pay the County for additional mental health intervention services through June 30, 2021.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, the County will not receive additional funding to support mental health intervention services for certain Special Education students.
