Subject:Novation Contract #74–106–12 with Adolescent Treatment Centers, Inc.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
problems to improve school performance, reduce unsafe behavioral practices, and reduce
the need for out-of-home placements.
On December 1, 2009, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74–106–11
with Adolescent Treatment Centers, Inc, for the period from July 1, 2009 through June 30,
2010, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2010, for the
provision of day rehabilitation and mental health services for SED Dually-Diagnosed
adolescents at its Thunder Road Facility.
Approval of Novation Contract #74–106–12 replaces the automatic extension under the
prior Contract and allows the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30,
2011.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, SED dually-diagnosed adolescents will not receive needed
day treatment and mental health services at Contractor’s Thunder Road Facility and may
require higher and more costly levels of treatment.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
This EPSDT 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
