Subject:Novation Contract #74-405-1 with Lao Family Community Development, Inc.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
On September 21, 2010, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74-405
with Lao Family Community Development, Inc., for the period from July 1, 2010 through
June 30, 2011, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31,
2011, for the provision of MHSA prevention and early intervention services.
Approval of Novation Contract #74-405-1 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, County residents will have reduced access to prevention and
early intervention services provided under MHSA including outreach, education and support
programs designed to increase family emotional well-being and stability.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
This 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).
