Subject:Novation Contract #24-213-51 with Desarollo Familiar, Inc.
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
On December 17, 2013, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #24–213–50 with Desarrollo Familiar, Inc., for
the period from July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014, which included a six-month automatic extension through
December 31, 2014, for the provision of mental health services in West County.
Approval of Novation Contract #24-213-51 replaces the automatic extension under the prior Contract and allows
the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2015.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, a significant number of County’s mentally ill, Spanish-speaking adult clients in
West County will experience reduced access to the information, referrals, consultation, education, and outpatient
mental health services that they need.
