RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Grant Agreement #29-815 with the California Board of State and Community Corrections, to pay the County an amount not to exceed $5,984,086, to provide pre-arrest, at-arrest and post-arrest diversion opportunities and coordination services for Antioch residents with behavioral health issues, for the period from June 16, 2017 through August 15, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this grant agreement will allow the County to receive funding from the California Board of State and Community Corrections for fiscal years 2017/2018, 2018/2019, and 2019/2020. A County match of 51% is required.

BACKGROUND:

This grant is funded by Proposition 47, The Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act, to ensure services for adults with behavioral issues who are committing non-serious, non-violent crimes are available through prevention, diversion and support programs.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Approval of Grant Agreement #29-815 will allow the County to initiate the CoCo LEAD+ project which will provide pre-arrest, at-arrest and post-arrest diversion opportunities and coordination services for Antioch residents with behavioral health issues through August 15, 2020. This agreement requires the County to indemnify the State for claims arising out of the County’s performance under the agreement.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this agreement is not approved, the County will not receive funding to support the CoCo LEAD+ program and Antioch residents with behavioral health issues committing non-violent and non-serious crimes will not receive prevention, diversion and support services.
