determined that the criteria were met
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
for Wrap Around services with the intent to maintain the child in the home verses
out-of-home placement. Shasta County advised Contra Costa County EHSD CFS that they
did not have the service capacity, at that time, to provide Wrap Around services.
Subsequently Kinship Center, having been a provider of Wrap Around services in multiple,
small counties, was contacted to provide the necessary Wrap Around services to the family.
The speed of service delivery was critical and a written agreement, not a contract, was
initiated with Kinship Center beginning services in June 2011. This board order is to allow
for the payment of those services provided by the provider.
In September 20111, Contra Costa County EHSD CFS, following multiple contacts with
Shasta County Mental Health, arranged to have mental health and supportive services
provided. The services provided by Kinship Center were terminated and supportive services
transitioned to Shasta County and currently remain in effect.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Payment would not be made for delivered services.
