Add two seats to the Family and Children' s Trust Committee, as follows: One for a representative of the Countywide Drug and Alcohol Coordinating Committee. One for the County Superintendent of Schools. 8. Agree to schedule time on the Board' s agenda for Tuesday, November 13 , 1990 at 11: 00 A.M. for a presentation by FACT on the valuable contribution which is made to human services in the County by the funds which are allocated by FACT, particularly those contributed by property tax payers to the Ann Adler Trust Fund. 9. Request the County Administrator or his designee to meet with the Treasurer-Tax Collector in an effort to clarify any problems or misunderstandings regarding the inclusion with property tax bills of a brochure soliciting funds for the Ann Adler Trust Fund and report his findings and recommendations to our Committee by not later .than January 7 , 1991 . 10. Request the staff to FACT to prepare and forward to the County Administrator by October 15, 1990 a letter which can be signed by each member of the Board of Supervisors to be sent to each property tax payer who makes a contribution this year to the Ann Adler Trust Fund expressing the Board' s appreciation. for the contribution. 11. Request the Social Services Director to report to bur Committee on December 10, 1990 on the status of contributions to the Ann Adler Trust Fund, along with his recommendations regarding_ any actions the Board of Supervisors needs to take in terms of amending contracts to insure the fiscal integrity of the Ann Adler Trust Fund and AB 2994 Trust Fund, along with the contracts they Isupport, both between now. and December 31, 1990 and thereafter. -3- 12. Remove as a referral to our Committee the July 25, 1989 referral relating to the appointments and the June 19, 1990 referral relating to appointments to FACT, leaving on referral the review of the status of the contracts as outlined in Recommendation # 11 above. BACKGROUND: When the Board of Supervisors restructured FACT on July 25, 1989 it directed that all prospective appointments be reviewed by the Internal Operations Committee for appointment by the Board of Supervisors. On September 20, 1990 Terri Kard and Maridel Moulton, members of FACT and Bill Weidinger, staff to FACT, met with our Committee. We received the attached report which outlines the actions FACT is requesting the Board of Supervisors take, along with the applications from those individuals who have applied for membership on FACT. In addition, our Committee reviewed the request of the Social Services Director for appointment of the agency and advisory board representatives to FACT which was forwarded to our Committee by the Board of Supervisors on June 19, 1990. The above recommendations result from our discussion with the members of FACT. We also reviewed the attached memorandum from Mr. Weidinger outlining the fact that FACT has committed more funds than it appears it will have because of shortfalls in the contributions to the Ann Adler Trust Fund and AB 2994 Trust Fund. As a result, it appears that the Board of Supervisors may have to amend the contracts with various agencies to reduce their payment limit between now and December 31, 1990 in order to keep the trust funds balanced. We are also suggesting that FACT schedule a "media event" before the Board of Supervisors, outlining the valuable contribution which is made by these funds and soliciting further contributions from the public. We hope that a well planned presentation will. generate positive publicity for the Ann Adler Trust Fund so that further reductions or elimination of contract programs will not be necessary. cc: County Administrator Social Services Director Bill Weidinger, Staff to FACT Auditor-Controller Treasurer-Tax Collector County Counsel Appointees }a` .`z n'-1k:'J`�74�r-1.,= kz..

Their applications are attached. On September 6, 1990, I intervieVed Clarice .Lawrence at my office. Ms Lawrence was recommended by the Mayor of Pittsburg and her application is attached. On September 10, 1990, Colleen Floyd, Assistant to Supervisor Tom Powers and myself interviewed three applicants at Supervisor Powers' office and , their applications are attached. Notices in the Martinez Gazette and Contra Costa Times were successful in obtaining six applicants. Ms Floyd spent a great deal of time in calling West County agencies to obtain additional applicants and continues to seek additional applicants to fill the remaining at-large seat from West County. Supervisor Torlakson's office was contacted in early September for additional applicants, as was Ruth Gooden of United Way. Mary Lou Lucas was very helpful in providing me with community contacts. Efforts continue to fill the two "at-large" seats; one from West and one from East. Ms Floyd is arranging two additional interviews for the week of September 17, 1990. II. FACT's Request to convert the Children's Coalition seat to an additional- at-large seat To the best of my understanding, the Children's Coalition has not met for the past six months. FACT's concern about converting this designated seat to an at-large seat is that the geographical representation of at-large seats would then not be evenly distributed. This could possibly be equalized by rotating yearly this additional at-large seat to each part of the county. III. Recommendation to fill the "converted" at- large seat FACT wishes to recommend the appointment of Kathleen Odne to this new converted at-large seat. IV. New Representatives from FACSAC & AB 90 Representatives from these two committees have been difficult to obtain because of the involvement of committee members in many other activities. However, a FACSAC alternate member has expressed her willingness to serve on FACT, but her application has not yet been received. Additionally, Gary Yancey, member of the AB90 committee, has delegated Jack Waddell, Deputy District Attorney, to represent the AB90 committee on FACT. V. Request to Temporarily Drop the Designated Seat of the Children's and Adolescent Task Force FACT's Co-Chair, Kathi McLaughlin, has made repeated attempts to obtain a representative from CATF. None of the CATF members are "conflict-free" due to their involvement_ in many community programs. One of the CATF members offered to sit on FACT, but abstain from the contract awarding process. This does not seem workable. Because of this, FACT does not want to have a vacancy on the committee that cannot be filled for some time. When CATF can provide a "conflict-free" representative, FACT will request their reinstatement. VI. Request to add two additional 'committees to FACT's membership FACT feels that there needs to be additional representation in the area of substance abuse and respectfully asks the Internal Operations Committee to suggest a committee FACT can contact. If the Internal Operations Committee grants our request to temporarily drop CATF, FACT would like an additional designated seat to represent children's issues. We respectfully request you to suggest a committee we can contact. BW:vcp Enc.

The attached memo from Phil Simonds, Fiscal Officer, Department of Social Service, describes the declining funds to the Ann Adler Trust. Projections for this fund the AB 2994 are below what was anticipated when FACT awarded these monies to the following eight contractors: Early Childhood Mental Health Programs; FamiliesFirst; Child & Family Therapy; Contra Costa Child Care Council; West Contra Costa Youth Services Bureau; Tri-County Women's Recovery; Rape Crisis and. Battered .Women's Alternative. FACT members think that one factor for this decrease to The Ann Adler Fund may be the negative publicity FACT received approximately a year ago regarding conflict of interest issues. An additional issue that will affect the contractor's award for the period of January, 1991 through June, 1991, is the decision the Committee made a . year ago to award -the balance of funds, that had previously been kept in reserve, for programs. The decision to spend the balance on programs was predicated on the intention of the staff person, at that time, to work with a graduate student to increase media exposure and therefore increase contributions. However, the staff person subsequently left the agency and the graduate student was assigned other duties. On August 30 , FACT met with the eight contributors and various strategies were discussed. _ Although we will finalize a strategy for each agency at our September 17 meeting that best meets their needs and the needs of their clients, it is probable that there will be a small percentage reduction of their grant through December, 1990. Gen 9c (New 3/86) We are planning to send letters to past donors informing them of the vital work our contractors perform and ask our donors to contribute again. We are also planning to contact our local newspapers and ask them to run articles about the Committee, our contractors and The Ann Adler Fund. We intend to complete these two tasks -in mid-September. As you know, Al Lomeli's office includes information and a contribution form for The Ann Adler Fund in the tax statement he sends to homeowners, which will be mailed in late September. We wanted to_ keep you informed of these events and if you have any comments, suggestions, please feel free to contact our staff liaison, Bill Weidinger at 706-4583.
