Information

Referral History:

On December 6, 2011 the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution No. 2011/497 adopting policy governing appointments to boards, committees, and commissions that are advisory to the Board of Supervisors. Included in this resolution was a requirement that applications for at large/countywide seats be reviewed by a Board of Supervisors committee. At Large seats on the Alcohol and Other Drugs Advisory Board are assigned to FHS for review and recommendation to the Board of Supervisors.

The Alcohol and Other Drugs Advisory Board provides input and recommendations to the Board of Supervisors and the Health Services Department concerning family and community needs regarding prevention and treatment of alcohol and drug related problems. The mission of the Contra Costa County Alcohol and Other Drugs Advisory Board is to assess family and community needs regarding treatment and prevention of alcohol and drug abuse problems. The board reports their findings and recommendations to the Contra Costa Health Services Department, the Board of Supervisors and the communities they serve. The Alcohol and Other Drugs Advisory Board works in collaboration with the Alcohol and Other Drugs Services of Contra Costa Health Services. The board provides input and recommendations as they pertain to alcohol and other drugs prevention, intervention, and treatment services.

Referral Update:

The Alcohol and Other Drugs Advisory Board’s Executive Committee met and are recommending the following actions:

· Removal of Michael Collins from the Member-at-Large Seat V position due to resignation

· Removal of Erika Sheranko, Member-at-Large Seat VI position due to resignation

· Reappoint Jonathan Ciampi, Member-at-Large Seat I for an additional term

Due to the reorganization of the AODAB’s structure, there is a need for additional At-Large members to support a broader county geographical representation.

In accordance to the recruitment policy of the Board of Supervisors a media advisory will be released to recruit potential Board members. Alcohol and Other Drug Services maintains an internal system to monitor countywide geographical and culturally representation.

Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):

RECOMMEND that the Board of Supervisors:

DECLARE a previous vacancy, due to resignation, for the Member-at-Large Seat V on the Alcohol and Other Drug Advisory Board for a term that ends on June 30, 2020;
DECLARE a vacancy, due to resignation, for the Member-at-Large Seat VI seat on the Alcohol and Other Drug Advisory Board for term that expires on June 30, 2022; AND
REAPPOINT Jonathan Ciampi to the Member-at-Large I seat on the Alcohol and Other Drug Advisory Board for a term expiring on June 30, 2023.
