RECOMMENDATION(S):

AUTHORIZE the Auditor-Controller's Office to submit a one-time payment in the amount of $57,418.32 for Group Home Services provided at Valley Teen Ranch from August 28, 2017 to February 26, 2018, for a 602 WIC Ward of the Court, as recommended by the County Probation Officer.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$56,418.32, 100% General Fund.

BACKGROUND:

On August 8, 2017, M.M. was declared 602 WIC Ward of the Court and ordered into out of home placement, Foster Care, after attaining the age of 18 years old. Ward M.M. was placed at Valley Teen Ranch in Madera, CA in order to receive rehabilitative servces on August 28, 2017, and exited the program on February 26, 2018. The result of the Court making a removal order to Foster Care after the Ward attained the age of 18 years old made the Ward ineligible for Federal and State Foster Care funding.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to reimburse Valley Teen Ranch for services provided may jeopardize future Foster Care placements at the group home. Further, failure to reimburse Valley Teen Ranch for services provided could result in litigation.
