Subject:Novation Contract #24–409–31 with The West Contra Costa Youth Services Bureau
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
approved Novation Contracts #24–409–30, #74-306-6 and #74-320-6, with The West Contra Costa Youth Services
Bureau, for the period from July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012, each Contract included a six-month automatic
extension through December 31, 2012, for the provision of mental health services to SED children.
Approval of Novation Contract #24–409–31 combines similar children’s specialty mental health services, replaces
the automatic extension under the prior Contracts, and allows the Contractor to continue providing services, through
June 30, 2013.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, there will be fewer intensive services in West Contra Costa County if the County
solicits and engages an alternate contractor, which could result in higher levels of care.
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, nurturing; and Communities that are safe and provide a high quality of life for
children and families. Expected outcomes include all goals identified by Children’s Statewide System of Care
guidelines including an increase in positive social and emotional development as measured by the Child and
Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale (CAFAS) and decreased use of acute care system.
