multi-agency collaborative service delivery; and minimizes the need for crisis services and involvement with the
Juvenile Justice System.
On January 8, 2013, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #24–409–31, with The West Contra

Subject:Novation Contract #24–409–32 with The West Contra Costa Youth Services Bureau
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Approval of Novation Contract #24–409–32, replaces the automatic extension under the prior Contract and allows
the Contractor to continue providing services, through June 30, 2014.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, there will be fewer intensive services in West Contra Costa County as 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.
