RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, to execute a contract with Kristin Bodiford dba Community Strengths, in an amount not to exceed $278,000 for consultation services in support of the Families Thrive and the County Call to Action Programs around prevention of interpersonal violence for the period July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract will increase department expenditures by $278,000 to be funded 50% with County General Fund and 50% with Grant Funding.

BACKGROUND:

This three year contract addresses the social needs of the County's population by providing consultation services around the Families Thrive Program development as well as the County Call to Action Program. The Families Thrive Program actively supports learning and collaboration to address the specific needs of children, youth and families impacted by trauma and intimate partner violence. The Contra Costa County Call to Action Program serves as a guide for the County’s coordinated and strategic action to correct the epidemic of interpersonal violence.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Employment and Human Services Department will be unable to effectively facilitate the Families Thrive or Call to Action Programs which will prevent strategic action being taken to correct the epidemic of interpersonal violence.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

This contract supports 4 of 5 of Contra Costa County’s community outcomes: (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 supporting the Families Thrive and Contra Costa County Call to Action.
