RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with Contra Costa Family Justice Alliance, effective February 1, 2022, to increase the payment limit by $240,000 to a new payment limit of $882,993 to provide additional project planning and operational support services for victims of interpersonal violence and their families for the period July 1, 2021 through September 30, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$882,993: Contract amendment of $240,000 will be funded with 53% County General Fund; 20% Blue Shield Foundation Grant; and 27% Alliance.

BACKGROUND:

This contract is to ensure delivery of effective services for victims of interpersonal violence through a coordinated client-centered, multidisciplinary service model. Contra Costa Family Justice Alliance provides support and assistance to increase the safety and empowerment of families within the county experiencing interpersonal violence and to coordinate access to multiple service providers and achieve specific measures and outcomes.

The amendment allows for continued planning, project coordination and operational support of the Alliance to End Abuse.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

This contract supports three of the five of Contra Costa County’s community outcomes: (3) “Families that are Economically Self-Sufficient” (4) "Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing"; and (5)"Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families” by providing a safe environment where families affected by interpersonal violence can receive appropriate support and follow-up services.
