BACKGROUND:

The Behavioral Health Services Department has been contracting with R.E.A.C.H. Project to provide drug abuse prevention and treatment services to youth and adults in East County, since July 1981.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #24-243-72 will allow this Contractor to continue to provide additional drug abuse prevention and treatment services, through June 30, 2021.
