BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
children and their families.
On January 26, 2010, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74–387 (as amended by
Contract Amendment Agreement #74–387–1) with Seneca Residential and Day Treatment
Center for Children for the period from November 1, 2009 through June 30, 2010, with an
automatic extension through December 31, 2010, for the provision of school-based mental
health services to Seriously Emotionally Disturbed students at Kennedy High School in
Richmond.
Approval of Contract #74–387–2 allows the Contractor to continue providing services
through June 30, 2011.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, there will be fewer school-based services in West Contra
Costa County, which could result in higher levels of care for SED students.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
This school-based 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).
