HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 06172014 - C.110RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, to execute a contract with
Seneca Family of Agencies, a non-profit Corporation, in an amount not to exceed $360,000, to provide Wraparound
Program Services for youth in the Oak Grove Rate Classification Level 14 (RCL14) program and other target
populations, for the period August 1, 2014 to July 31, 2015.
FISCAL IMPACT:
$360,000.00: $216,000 County; $144,000 State 2011 Realignment. California Senate Bill (SB) 163.
BACKGROUND:
Seneca Family of Agencies will provide “Wraparound” services, a community-based intervention program that
provides children with service alternatives to group home care through expanded family-based services.
“Wraparound” services are services that are wrapped around a child living with his or her birth parent, relative,
adoptive parent, foster parent or guardian. These services build on the strengths of each child and family and will be
tailored to address their unique and changing needs. (#19-423-7)
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
At risk youth in restrictive group home service settings will have less opportunities to transition into family-based
services.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
This contract supports four of the community outcomes established in the Children’s Report Card: 1) “Children
Ready for and Succeeding in School”; 2) “Children and Youth Healthy and Preparing for Productive Adulthood”; 3)
“Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing”; and 4) “Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life
for Children and Families.” This will be accomplished by placing at risk youth into family-based or less restrictive
service settings.
