APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract #74-463-4 with Bi-Bett Corporation, a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $133,488 to provide transitional housing services for homeless adult males who have recently completed substance use treatment, including referrals from the County’s Assembly Bill (AB)109 program, for the period from July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 100% Assembly Bill (AB) 109 Realignment. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing specialized transitional housing services for homeless adult males referred from County’s AB 109 Program and from substance use disorder treatment programs. Contractor’s program is designed to help residents maintain sobriety and other gains achieved in treatment while they participate in employment and self-sufficiency services designed to support their transition to permanent housing and productive community engagement.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On July 7, 2015, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-463-3 with Bi-Bett Corporation for the provision of transitional housing services for homeless adult males who have recently completed substance use treatment, including referrals from the County’s AB 109 program, for the period from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016.

Approval of Contract #74-463-4 will allow the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2017.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, County clients who are in need of transitional housing services will not have access to Contractor’s services, possibly resulting in substance use relapse or recidivism.
