RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Novation Contract #74-523-3 with Counseling Options & Parent Education, Inc. (C.O.P.E.), a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $253,238, to provide Triple-P parent education classes and practitioner trainings for the period from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020, which includes a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2020, in an amount not to exceed $126,619.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 100% by Mental Health Service Act Funds. (3% Cost of Living Adjustment)

BACKGROUND:

This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing Triple P parent education programming to at-risk families in order to help parents develop better coping skills and improve family communication. Contractor shall also provide trainings and certification services to maintain a qualified pool of practitioners within Contra Costa County.  



BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
  
On May 22, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-523-2 with Counseling Options & Parent Education, Inc. (C.O.P.E.), for the provision of Triple-P parent education classes and practitioner trainings, for the period from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2019.  
  
Approval of Novation Contract #74-523-3 replaces the automatic extension under the prior Contract and allows the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2020.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, at-risk families will have reduced access to parent education programming and qualified Triple-P practitioners, resulting in reduced levels of service to the community.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

This program supports the following Board of Supervisors’ community outcomes: “Children Ready For and Succeeding in School”; “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing”; and “Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families”. Expected program outcomes include an increase in positive social and emotional development as measured by the Child and Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale (CAFAS).
