RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Standard Agreement #28-850-4 (#22-10784) with the California Department of Public Health, to pay the County an amount not to exceed $396,014 for the Enhanced Integration: Guide to HIV Prevention and Surveillance Project, for the period from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this agreement will result in funding of up to $396,014 from the California Department of Public Health. No County matching funds are required.

BACKGROUND:

The goal of the Enhanced Integration: Guide to HIV Prevention and Surveillance Project include: 1) strengthen disease investigation infrastructure; 2) expand and provide navigation services; and 3) expand access to syringe services for people who inject drugs.  

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
  
On May 21, 2019, the Board of Supervisors approved Standard Agreement #28-850-3 with California Department of Public Health, in an amount not to exceed $1,584,056, for County’s HIV prevention services to Contra Costa County residents, for the period from January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2022.  
  
Approval of Standard Agreement #28-850-4 will allow the County to continue to receive funds to support the Enhanced Integration Project through December 31, 2023. This agreement includes including continuing to indemnify and hold the State harmless for claims arising out of the County’s performance under the agreement.  
  
This grant agreement is being processed retroactively due to the department not receiving the agreement from the State until February 6, 2023.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the County will not receive the necessary funding to support the reduction in transmission of HIV prevention services that will reduce hospitalization and support to HIV positive individuals to live at home or allow for compliance with State and Federal requirements for reporting of communicable disease.
