RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract #74-181-18 with Bay Area Community Resources, Inc., a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $403,647, to provide drug abuse prevention and treatment services, for the period from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 55% by Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Discretionary, 17% Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Prevention Set-Aside, 7% Local Realignment and 20% SAMHWorks. (No Rate Increase)

BACKGROUND:

This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing treatment programs for adults and specialized substance abuse prevention programs so that youth are provided an opportunity to prevent or recover from the effects of alcohol or other drug use, become self-sufficient, and return to their families as productive individuals. On October 21, 2014, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74–181–17 with Bay Area Community Resources, Inc. for the period from July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015, for the provision of drug abuse prevention and treatment services. Approval of Contract #74–181–18 will allow the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2016.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this Contract is not approved, County residents will not receive this Contractor’s alcohol and drug prevention and treatment services needed to maintain sobriety and reduce risk factors.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

This Alcohol and Other Drugs program supports the following Board of Supervisors’ community outcomes: “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing” and “Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families” community outcomes by providing substance abuse education and prevention services. Expected outcomes include increased knowledge about the impact of addiction; decreased use of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs; increased use of community-based resources; and increased school and community support for youth and parents in recovery.
