BACKGROUND:

On May 24, 2016, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74-402-5 with Aspiranet to provide therapeutic behavioral services (TBS) to County referred clients that have been placed in group homes in Stanislaus County and to clients residing in Contra Costa County at facilities throughout the County, for the period from July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2017.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #74-402-6 will allow the Contractor to provide additional TBS through June 30, 2017.
