RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Standard Agreement #29-502-45 (State #19-96218) with the California Department of Health Care Services to pay the County an amount not to exceed $64,760,373, to provide substance abuse prevention, treatment and recovery support services to County residents through the authority of Federal Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grants (SABG), for the period July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Agreement will provide funding for the period July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2022 in an amount not to exceed $64,760,373 for the SABG. No County match is required.

BACKGROUND:

On December 5, 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved Standard Agreement #29-502-42 (as amended by Amendment Agreements #29-502-43 and #29-502-44), to receive State General Funds, Federal Block Grant allocations and Drug/Medi-Cal funds for Substance Use Disorder (SUD) services, for the period from July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2020.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Approval of this Standard Agreement #29-502-45 allows the County to continue to receive SABG allocation funds and allow the Department to continue providing substance abuse services to Contra Costa County residents. In accordance with this agreement, the County agrees to indemnify and hold the State harmless for claims arising out of the County’s performance under the Agreement.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this Agreement is not approved, County will not receive funding to support the continuation of substance abuse services in Contra Costa County.
