Subject:Novation Contract #74–306–6 with The West Contra Costa Youth Service Bureau
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
On January 18, 2011, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74–306–5
with The West Contra Costa Youth Services Bureau, for the period from January 1, 2011
through June 30, 2011, which included a six-month automatic extension through December
31, 2011, for the provision of wraparound Mental Health services.
Approval of Contract #74–306–6 replaces the automatic extension under the prior Contract
and allows the Contactor to continue providing services through June 30, 2012.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, Medi-Cal eligible SED youth in West Contra Costa County
will have fewer opportunities to receive needed wraparound treatment as the County solicits
and engages an alternate contractor and may require treatment at higher levels of service.
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
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).
