RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Novation Contract #74–218–17 with Desarrollo Familiar, Inc. (dba Familias Unidas), a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $399,220, to provide community based mental health services for primarily children and their families in West Contra Costa County, for the period from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020. This Contract includes a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2020, in an amount not to exceed $199,610.  

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded by 50% Federal Medi-Cal and 50% State Early Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment (EPSDT). (3% Cost of Living Adjustment)

BACKGROUND:





BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing community-based mental health services, including assessments; individual, group, and family counseling; case management; and outreach to an underserved Latino population in West Contra Costa County, which will result in greater home, community, and school success.  
  
On September 11, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74–218–16 with Desarrollo Familiar, Inc. for the period from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2019, for the provision of community based mental health services for children and their families in West Contra Costa County.  
  
Approval of Novation Contract #74–218–17 replaces the automatic extension under the prior Contract and allows the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2020.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, children in West Contra Costa County will have reduced access to community-based mental health services and may require higher levels of service.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

This program supports the following Board of Supervisors’ community outcomes: “Children Ready For and Succeeding in School”; “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing”; and “Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families”. Expected program outcomes include an increase in positive social and emotional development as measured by the Child and Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale.
