RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director or his designee, to execute on behalf of the County, Grant Amendment #28-737-9 (Grant #CA0191L9T051609) from U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Homeless (HUD) Assistance, to transfer the grant to Anka Behavioral Health Inc., effective June 1, 2017, in an amount not to exceed $581,873 for the Project Coming Home (PCH) – Addressing Addiction to Alcohol (AAA) Program.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of the Grant Amendment will transfer an amount not to exceed $581,873 to Anka Behavioral Health Inc., from HUD through the McKinney-Vento Act to provide PCH AAA Program services.

BACKGROUND:

HUD and the County’s Health Services Department entered into a Grant Agreement #28-739-8 for the PCH AAA Program, for the period from June 1, 2017 through May 31, 2018. Health Services Department has determined it would be beneficial to transfer the grant directly to Anka Behavioral Health, Inc. who provides these services. Anka Behavioral Health, Inc. submitted evidence acceptable to HUD and is now an eligible recipient of this Grant.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this Grant Amendment is not approved, the County will not be able to transfer funds to Anka Behavioral Health Inc., to support the PCH AAA Program.
