Subject:Novation Contract #74–304-7 with Fred Finch Youth Center
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
On December 17, 2013, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74–304-6 with Fred Finch Youth
Center, for the period from July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014 which included a six-month automatic extension
through December 31, 2014, to provide implementation of the MHSA Community Services and Support Programs.
Approval of Novation Contract #74-304-7 replaces the automatic extension and allows Contractor to continue
providing services through June 30, 2015.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, effective implementation of the MHSA Transitional-aged youth services and support
programs will be delayed leading to reduced level of services for County’s mental health clients.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
This program supports the following Board of Supervisors’ community outcomes: “Families that are Safe, Stable,
and Nurturing”; and “Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families”.
Expected program outcomes include an increase in positive social and emotional development as measured by the
Child and Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale (CAFAS).
