RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract Amendment Agreement #74-315-17 with Community Options for Families and Youth, Incorporated, a non-profit corporation, effective March 1, 2020, to amend Novation Contract #74-315-16, to increase the payment limit by $38,272, from $1,435,226 to a new payment limit of $1,473,498, with no change in the original term of July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020, and to increase the automatic extension payment limit by $57,409, from $717,613 to a new payment limit of $775,022 through December 31, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Amendment is funded by 50% Federal Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment (EPSDT) and 50% Mental Health Realignment Funds. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

The Contract meets the social needs of the County by providing Therapeutic Behavioral Services (TBS) to seriously emotionally disturbed (SED) children who have been discharged from a hospital or have failed in other placements. Contractor shall also provide a Multisystemic Behavioral and Functional Family Therapy program for adolescents who are discharged from Juvenile Hall and the Orin Allen Youth Rehabilitation Facility.

On September 10, 2019, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74–315–16 with Community Options for Families and Youth, Incorporated for the period from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2020, for the provision of TBS and outpatient services to SED children and youth, and their families.

Approval of Amendment #74-315-17 will allow the Contractor to continue to provide TBS and outpatient services through June 30, 2020.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, Contractor will not receive the negotiated rate increase.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

This program supports the following Board of Supervisors’ community outcomes: “Children Ready For and Succeeding in School”; “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing”; and “Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families”. Expected program outcomes include an increase in positive social and emotional development as measured by the Child and Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale (CAFAS).
