RECOMMENDATION(S):
Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Donna Wigand) to execute on
behalf of the County, Interagency Agreement#74-278 with the County of Santa Clara, a government

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).
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
This Contract meets the social needs of County's population in that it provides high-level
residential placements, including intensive day treatment services, medication support, and mental
health services to Contra Costa County-referred SED children at the County of Santa Clara's
Starlight Community Treatment Facility (CTF). Due to a reduction in CTF beds in Contra Costa
County, it is necessary to contract with an out-of-county facility to provide these Juvenile Court-
mandated treatment services.
Under Interagency Agreement #74-278, the County of Santa Clara will provide CTF services
through December 31, 2006.
