Subject:Novation Contract #74–320-6 with The West Contra Costa Youth Service Bureau
On December 7, 2010, the
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74–320-5 with The West Contra Costa Youth
Service Bureau, for the period from July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011, which included a
six-month automatic extension though December 31, 2011, for the provision of
school-based mental health services to SED students in West County.
Approval of Novation Contract #74 320–6 replaces the automatic extension under the prior
Contract and allows the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2012.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, fewer school-based mental health services will be provided
to SED students in West County as the Department solicits and engages an alternative
contractor.
