RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Grant Agreement #28-882-3 with Sutter Bay Hospitals, to pay the County an amount not to exceed $75,000 for the County’s Coordinated Outreach, Referral and Engagement (C.O.R.E.) program for homeless outreach, for the period from May 1, 2019 through April 30, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this Grant Agreement will result in an amount of $75,000 for the County’s C.O.R.E. program for homeless outreach. No County match required.

BACKGROUND:

The Concord Shelter in conjunction with the County’s Behavioral Health Services Division is part of a comprehensive strategy to provide housing and services to the homeless in Contra Costa County. The Behavioral Health Services Division Homeless Program will dedicate three beds within the Concord Shelter for Sutter Bay Hospital patients who are homeless, identified to be too low acuity to access the Respite Shelter program, capable of self-care and are appropriate for placement in regular shelter programs. These homeless residents are allowed stay up to 120 days.

On July 10, 2018 the Board of Supervisors approved Grant Agreement #29-882-1 with Sutter Bay Hospitals to provide funding to support County’s Behavior Health Services Division C.O.R.E. program for homeless residents for the period from January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018.

Approval of Grant Agreement #28-882-3 will allow County to receive funds for County’s C.O.R.E. program through April 30, 2020. The County is agreeing to indemnify and hold harmless the State for claims arising out of County’s performance under this Contract.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this Grant Agreement is not approved the County will not receive funding to support homeless residents being discharged from Sutter Bay Hospitals, Concord.
