crisis intervention, and other mental health services, including wrap-around, to Medi-Cal
eligible Severely Emotionally Disturbed (SED) children, and their families, who have been
referred by the C5 Interagency Team, in order to keep them out of higher levels of
placement.
On December 16, 2008, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74–322–1
(as amended by Contract Amendment Agreement #74–322–2) with Youth Homes

Contract and allows the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2010.
