Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #24-429-53 will allow the Contractor to provide additional services through June 30, 2012. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If this amendment is not approved, pregnant and parenting women will not receive additional alcohol and drug treatment services they need which may result in perinatal substance abuse and additional risk to their babies. CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: This Alcohol and Drug Abuse program supports the Board of Supervisors’ “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing” community outcome by providing parenting education, stability, and safety for mothers (and their children) and pregnant women who are alcohol and drug dependent, while they are in substance abuse treatment. Expected outcomes include delivery of drug-free babies, decreased use of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs, reduction in the number of relapses, and creation of a sober social network.
