RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Novation Contract #74–301-9 with Desarrollo Familiar, Inc.(dba Familias Unidas), a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $770,832, to provide implementation of the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) Community Services and Supports Program, for the period from July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 22% Federal Financial Participation; 78% State Mental Health Services Act (Prop 63). (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing implementation of MHSA Community Services and Supports Program, including providing community-based services, personal services coordination, medication support, crisis intervention, and other mental health services to eligible adult clients in Contra Costa County. On October 20, 2015, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-301-8 with Desarrollo Familiar, Inc., for the period from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016, which included a six month automatic extension through December 31, 2016, to provide implementation of the MHSA Community Services and Supports Program. Approval of Novation Contract #74-301-9 replaces the automatic extension under the prior Contract and allows the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2019.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, there will be fewer services provided to eligible adult clients in Contra Costa County through the MHSA Community Services and Support Program.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
