APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, to issue Request for
Proposal (RFP) #1110 for a Receiving Center to provide shelter, food, clothing, and medical services to children who
have been removed from their homes in an amount not to exceed $200,000.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$200,000: 100% County Funds
BACKGROUND:
The Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD), Children and Family Services Bureau (CFS), will be
soliciting competitive bids to establish a Receiving Center in Contra Costa County to provide food, shelter, clothing,
and medical care to children who have been removed from their homes. The Receiving Center will enable EHSD
CFS to increase the number of children who can safely return to their families or relatives without going into
emergency foster care. By providing time for family assessment, the center reduces the number of disruptive
placements to which a child is subjected.
