RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Novation Contract #24-682-33 with Victor Treatment Centers, Inc., a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $255,234, to provide outpatient residential treatment services to Seriously Emotionally Disturbed (SED) children, for the period from July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018. This Contract includes a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2018, in an amount not to exceed $127,617.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 50% Federal Medi-Cal; 50% County Mental Health Realignment. (3% Cost of Living Adjustment)

BACKGROUND:

This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing medication support, and other mental health services in a residential setting, to SED children at Contractor’s Santa Rosa, Stockton and Redding facilities.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On July 19, 2016, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #24-682-32 with Victor Treatment Centers, Inc., for the period from July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2017, for the provision of residential treatment services to SED children.

Approval of Novation Contract #24-682-33 replaces the automatic extension and will allow Contractor to continue providing residential treatment, medication support and other mental health services in a residential setting, through June 30, 2018.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, SED youth from Contra Costa County will not have adequate access to residential treatment facilities.
