APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute a contract with
Caroline Kelley in the amount of $55,000 for consultation and technical assistance to the Policy
Forum with regard to children and family issues for the period from January 1, 1997 through
December 31, 1997.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
Funding is provided through the Department's budget.
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
The Board of Supervisors formed a Policy Forum to increase the County's ability to improve the well
being of children and families. Over the next year, the Policy Forum will be engaging in a number
of activities designed to improve collaboration, leverage resources and track outcomes for children
and families. Much of this work will necessitate engaging civic groups, foundations, cities,
community-based organizations and public agencies in working together to develop and implement
a common vision for children and families. Parenting has been identified as the first issue for testing
this new collaborative outcome-based system. In addition, the Board of Supervisors has referred
several issues to the Policy Forum for review and advise. These efforts will require staff support
which will be provided, in part, by Caroline Kelley.
