RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Novation Contract #24–213–55 with Desarrollo Familiar, Inc., (dba Familias Unidas), a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $286,523, to provide mental health services in West Contra Costa County for the period from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019. This Contract includes a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2019, in an amount not to exceed $143,261.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 18% Federal Medi-Cal; 40% Substance Abuse/Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Grant; 42% by Mental Health Realignment. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing information and referrals, consultation and education, and outpatient mental health services for Spanish-speaking, mentally ill clients in West Contra Costa County at Familias Unidas Counseling Center.




BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On December 12, 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #24–213–54 with Desarrollo Familiar, Inc., for the provision of mental health services in West Contra Costa County for the period from July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2018.

Approval of Novation Contract #24–213–55 replaces the automatic extension under the prior Contract and allows the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2019.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this novation contract is not approved, a significant number of County’s mentally ill, Spanish-speaking adult clients in West Contra Costa County will experience reduced access to the information, referrals, consultation, education, and outpatient mental health services that they need.
