FROM: Mark Finucane, Health Services Director Ccntra
By: Elizabeth A. Spooner, Contracts Administrator Costa
DATE: January 23, 1986 COIa /
SUBJECT: ' Approval of Novation Agreement #24-243-7 with R.E.A.C.H. Project, Inc. �� ��••l1
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION.-
Approve
CTION:Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute on behalf of the County, Novation
Agreement 424-243-7 with R.E.A:C.H. Project, Inc. in the amount of $66,138 for the
period July 1, 1985 - June 30, 1986 for provision of drug abuse prevention and
early intervention services in the Antioch and Brentwood areas (and in the
Pittsburg area until October 15, 1985). This document includes a six-month automa-
tic extension from June 30, 1986 through December 31, 1986 in the amount- of
$27,156.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The payment limit of $66,138 includes a cost-of-living increase of four percent
over the 1984-85 base contract amount, as well as funding for Pittsburg area
services until October 15, 1985, when the contractor opted to limit services to the
Antioch and Brentwood areas of the County. This contract is funded by 90% State
funds (Drug Abuse Program allocation) and 10% local County matching funds.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
On December 18, 1984, the Board approved Contract 424-243-5 with R.E.A.C.H.
Project, Inc. for East County drug abuse prevention, early intervention, and
community mental health services. On December 17, 1985, the Board approved a
two-month extension of the contract through February 28, 1986. Novation
Contract 424-243-7 replaces the automatic contract extension of Contract 424-243-5
and the two-month extension approved by the Board in December.
This program continues to be an effective school/community based model of service
to youth and families with drug-related problems in Antioch, Brentwood and other
far eastern county communities . It is a program with a long standing record of
accomplishment and a model for generating community support and funding from such
sources as the City of Antioch, Antioch Unified School District, and local fund
raisers and donations. The contractor's withdrawal from service delivery to the
Pittsburg area does not in any way diminish their record of excellent service
delivery to County residents .
This Novation Contract has been approved as to legal form by County Counsel's
Office.
