RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to accept, on behalf of the County, Grant Award #28-882 from Sutter Health, to pay the County in an amount not to exceed $97,275, for the County’s Concord interim housing, transportation and services Project, for the period from December 25, 2015 through December 24, 2016.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Acceptance of this grant award will result in an amount not to exceed $97,275 for the County’s Concord interim housing, transportation and services project through December 24, 2016. No County match required.

BACKGROUND:

The Concord Shelter in conjunction with the County’s Behavioral Health Services Division is part of a comprehensive strategy to provide housing and services to the homeless in Contra Costa County. The Behavioral Health Services Division Homeless Program will dedicate three beds within the Concord Shelter for Sutter Delta patients who are homeless, identified to be too low acuity to access the Respite Shelter program, capable of self-care and are appropriate for placement in regular shelter programs. These homeless residents are allowed stay up to 120 days.

Approval of Grant Award #28-882 will provide funding to support County’s Behavior Health Services Division Concord interim housing, transportation and services project for homeless patients, through December 24, 2016.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this award is not approved, the County will not receive funding to support homeless residents being discharged from Sutter Delta Hospital in Antioch.
