RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Novation Contract #74–369-12 with Native American Health Center, Inc., a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $257,753, to provide Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Prevention and Early Intervention (PEI) services for the period July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022, which includes a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2022, in an amount not to exceed $128,876.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this contract will result in an annual expenditure of up to $257,753 for FY 2021-2022 and will be funded 100% by MHSA-PEI Funds. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This contract meets the social needs of the County’s population by providing MHSA PEI services to the County since July 1, 2009.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On December 15, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74 369-11 with Native American Health Center, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $250,257, to provide MHSA PEI services for the period from July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2021.

Approval of Novation Contract #74–369-12 replaces the automatic extension under the prior contract and allows the contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2022.

The contract renewal request was delayed due to pending approval of the new contract language, which has been added to certain contracts to ascertain cohesiveness and alignment with State regulations.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the County’s mental health clients will not have access to this contractor’s PEI program.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Children’s Impact Statement: This program supports the following Board of Supervisors’ community outcomes: “Children Ready For and Succeeding in School”; “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing”; and “Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families”.
