Subject:Amendment #24-925-26 with Lincoln Child Center, Inc.
BACKGROUND:
This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing therapy, medication support, case
management, outreach, and crisis intervention services to elementary and junior high aged students in East County in
order to reduce the need for out-of-home placements.
On December 2, 2014, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #24-925-25 with Lincoln Child Center,
Inc. for the provision of school-based mental health services, including multi-dimensional family treatment for
severely emotionally disturbed students and their families, for the period from July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015,
which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2015.
Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #24-925-26 will allow the Contractor to provide additional
school-based services through June 30, 2015.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this amendment is not approved, mental health services will not be provided at Petite Academy possibly
necessitating higher levels of care for those students.
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, 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).
