TO: BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
FROM: Mark Finucane, Health Services Director Contra
Costa
DATE: August 29, 1995 County
SUBJECT: Approve Submission of Federal SAMHSA Grant Renewal Application for Mental
Health Services during Fiscal Year 1995-96
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
A. Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Lorna
.Bastian) to submit the Federal SAMHSA Grant Renewal Application to the State
Department of Mental Health, for $1,456,223 in Federal SAMHSA Grant Funds, for the
period from July 1, 1995 through June 30, 1996, to continue Federal Grant-funded
mental health services.
B. Authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Lorna Bastian) to
execute, on behalf of the County, the following application documents: Initial
Allocation Worksheet; Program Narrative Description; Assurance of Compliance with
Public Law 102-321; Certifications (regarding lobbying, salary rate cap and drug
free work environment) ; and Grant Planning Estimate.
C. Authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Lorna Bastian) , to
make minor changes in said Application, as may be requested by the State, to
maintain compliance with State and Federal requirements.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The SAMHSA Grant Renewal Application describes service program changes which are
necessary for the County to remain eligible to continue to receive this $1,456,223
Federal Grant Allocation, and presents a plan and detailed provider budgets for
use of these funds. No County matching funds are required.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
The FY 1995-96 SAMHSA Grant Renewal Application was reviewed and recommended for
approval by the County's Mental Health Commission at its meeting on July 27, 1995.
This year's Federal "Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration"
(SAMHSA) Grant Program utilizes the Federal Grant funds for integrated systems of
care to serve the target populations of adults and older adults who are seriously
and persistently mentally ill and seriously emotionally disturbed (SED) children
and youth. While approval of this document does not obligate the County to make
any expenditures, submission and approval by the State are required in order for
the County to receive these Federal Grant Funds from the State in FY 1995-96.
In order to meet the deadline for submission, the document has been forwarded to
the State, but subject to Board approval. Three certified and sealed copies of
this Board Order should be returned to the Contracts and ants Unit.
