RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract Amendment Agreement #74-218-18 with Desarrollo Familiar, Inc. (dba Familias Unidas), a non-profit corporation, effective March 1, 2020, to amend Novation Contract #74-218-17, to increase the payment limit by $10,646, from $399,220 to a new payment limit of $409,866, with no change in the original term of July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020, and to increase the automatic extension payment limit by $15,969, from $199,610 to a new payment limit of $215,579, through December 31, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This amendment is funded by 50% Federal Medi-Cal; 50% State Early Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment (EPSDT). (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing community-based mental health services, including assessments; individual, group, and family counseling; case management; and outreach to an underserved Latino population in West Contra Costa County, which will result in greater home, community, and school success.

On July 9, 2019, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74–218–17 with Desarrollo Familiar, Inc. (dba Familias Unidas) 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 community based mental health services for children and their families in West Contra Costa County.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #74-218-18 will allow the Contractor to continue to provide community based mental health services for children and their families in West Contra Costa County through June 30, 2020.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

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