(Fed. Cat. #93 .992) .. received as part of the County's Preliminary
Allocation for Drug Programs in FY 1991-92 from the State Department of

III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
In June 1989 the Drug Program Office submitted proposals to address
unmet needs to the State Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs.

clients was successful in receiving funding. The primary target group
to receive services under this contract will be drug-abusing pregnant
women. Other target groups are drug-abusing AIDS/ARC diagnosed clients
or other medically fragile clients. Services will be similar to the
model services which BAART has been providing under the FACET (Family
Addiction Center for Education and Treatment) Program in San Francisco.

the Richmond Methadone Maintenance Program and 7 additional treatment
slots in the Pittsburg Methadone Maintenance Program.
