RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with Aspiranet to extend from June 30, 2020 to December 31, 2020 with no change in the payment limit of $1,830,561, to provide critical emergency shelter receiving center services for children taken into protective custody or transitioning through foster placement.  
  

FISCAL IMPACT:

No change in payment limit. The funds allocated for this contract are 70% State 2011 Realignment and 30% County General Fund.  






BACKGROUND:

The Receiving Centers serve as the hub of the Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD) emergency shelter system. They provide temporary care to children who have been taken into protective custody and children and youth who are transitioning into resource family (foster) placements. The Receiving Centers offer a homelike setting and are designed to promote stability in placement, focus on the needs of the individual child, minimize move, and support permanence at the early stages of EHSD intervention.   
  
Approval of Contract Extension Agreement will allow the Contractor to provide emergency shelter placement services to youth through December 31, 2020, while renewal Contract terms are being renegotiated.  

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Emergency shelter will not be available to temporarily care for children taken into protective custody.  

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

This contract supports all five community outcomes established in the Children's Report Card: 1) "Children Ready for and Succeeding in School"; 2) "Children and Youth Healthy and Preparing for Productive Adulthood"; 3) "Families that are Economically Self Sufficient"; 4) "Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing"; and 5) "Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families", by providing a homelike environment for children entering the Child Welfare System.
