RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to accept Grant Extension #28-900-2 with the California Institute for Behavioral Health Solutions, to decrease the amount payable to the County by $6,990 to a new amount not to exceed $496,413 and extend the termination date from August 31, 2020 to February 28, 2021 for prevention screening, intervention, and treatment services to reduce Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) for youth in East and West Contra Costa County.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this Agreement will result in an amount not to exceed $496,413 payable to the County. No County match required.

BACKGROUND:

This Grant is needed to expand access to youth-friendly prevention, screening, intervention and treatment services to reduce OUD among youth ages 13 through 24 years. Services will be provided to high school youth in Antioch, Pittsburg and West Contra Costa Unified School Districts, Juvenile Hall, Golden Gate Community Schools operated by Contra Costa Office of Education, Calli House Youth Shelter and Concord Homeless Shelter. Data from the California Opioid Overdose Surveillance Dashboard show that areas of West and East Contra Costa, including Richmond, Pittsburg and Antioch, have some of the highest rates of opioid overdose deaths for all ages in the county, indicating that misuse of opioids and OUD is an issue in these areas. Because most adults with OUD started using opioids before age 25, misuse of opioids and OUD among youth and young adults in these areas is a concern.

Approval of Grant Extension #28-900-2 with allow County to provide prevention screening, intervention, and treatment services for youth to reduce OUD through February 28, 2021.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this grant extension is not accepted, County will not receive funds to reduce opioid use disorder and opioid overdose among youth in East and West Contra Costa County.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

This program supports the following Board of Supervisors’ community outcomes: “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing”; and “Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families”.
