RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #74–301-11 with Desarrollo Familiar, Inc. (dba Familias Unidas), a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $272,167, to provide a full range of community based and mental health services under the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Community Services and Supports Program for the period July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020, which includes a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2020, in an amount not to exceed $136,084.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract is funded 22% by Federal Medi-Cal and 78% by Mental Health Services Act (Prop 63). (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This contract meets the social needs of the County’s population by providing a full-service partnership for the MHSA Community Services and Supports Program, including providing community-based services, personal services coordination, medication support, crisis intervention, and other mental health services to eligible adult clients in Contra Costa County.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On September 20, 2016, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-301-9 (as amended by Amendment Agreement #72-301-10) with Desarrollo Familiar, Inc., for the period from July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2019.

Approval of Contract #74-301-11 will allow the Contractor to continue as a full-service partner, providing essential mental health support and services to mentally ill adults through June 30, 2020.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, there will be fewer services provided to eligible adult clients in Contra Costa County through the MHSA Community Services and Support Program, resulting in an adverse effect on the community.
