BACKGROUND:

On September 27, 2016, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-443-7, (as amended by Contract Amendment Agreement #74-443-8) with Ujima Family Recovery Services for the period July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017, for the provision of trauma therapy, case management, and assessment services to substance abuse and mental health services for CalWORKs (SAMHWork) clients.
