RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract #74-511-1 with R House, Inc., a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $119,952, to provide residential treatment services for youth at its Santa Rosa facility from July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 100% Federal Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment. (No Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing residential treatment to help clients to achieve and maintain sobriety and to experience the associated benefits of self-sufficiency, family reunification, cessation of criminal activity and productive engagement in the community.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

In March 2016, the County Administrator approved and the Purchasing Services Manager executed Contract #74-511 with R House, Inc., for the period from February 1, 2016 through June 30, 2016, to provide specialty substance abuse residential treatment services for youth.

Approval of Contract #74-511-1 will allow the Contractor to continue to provide residential treatment services for youth, through June 30, 2017.

If this contract is not approved, youth will not have access to substance abuse residential treatment services.
