BACKGROUND:

An annual update of the Independent Living Schools Program administered by the Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD) was first referred to the Family and Human Services Committee by the Board of Supervisors on October 17, 2006.

Prior to the report delivered on June 28, 2021, the Family and Human Services Committee had last received an annual report on this referral on October 29, 2020.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
