Approve and authorize the Health Services Director or his designee (Chuck

Pittsburg Boys Club, Inc. (dba Boys and Girls Club of East County) in the amount

abuse treatment services for residents of public housing in Richmond (at El Pueblo

extension through November 30, 1991 with a $62,416 payment limit for the extension
period.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This Contract is funded in the Health Services Department Budget by monies from the
Federal Office for Treatment Improvement for Critical Populations subsequent to an
application which was approved by your Board on May 14, 1990. No County match is
required for this program.
III. REASONS FOR-RECOMMENDATIONSZBACKGROUND:
In the Federal 1988 War on Drugs legislation, Congress created a new agency called
the Office for Treatment Improvement within the Department of Health and Human
Services. With limited funding, the purpose of this new office was to improve, not
necessarily expand, drug abuse services.
A May 22, 1990 Board Order approved the development of a proposal that would
respond to the need for drug abuse services for residents of public housing. That
proposal was successful in obtaining funding by the Office for Treatment
Improvement and is being allocated through the State Department of Alcohol and Drug
Programs to the Contra Costa County Health Services Department. This contract's
funding is reflected in the Department of Drug and Alcohol Program's October 2,
1990 FY 1990-91 final allocation letter (under Federal Category #13.902. )
Implementing these drug abuse services through Contract #24-576 will provide much
needed services to a critical population.
