SUBJECT: APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Social Service Director, or designee, to
negotiate and award a respite child care contract as a result an RFI.
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Social Service Director, or designee, to
negotiate and award a sole source contract for respite care services for
emergency foster parents, as the result of a public advertisement, Request
For Interest. The contract is to be with Family Support Services of the Bay
Area for the period of December 15, 1996 through June 30, 1997 for the
amount of $72,478.
FISCAL:
Per State DOE Agreement No. GRES-5001 , the California Department of
Education has offered one time only Respite Child Care Services funds
totalling $72,478. There is no required County match.
BACKGROUND:
The State Department of Education notified Contra Costa in July, 1996 of
additional Respite Child Care Funds available for the 96/97 Fiscal Year under
the existing State General Fund agreement approved by the Board of
Supervisors November 28, 1995. The full allocation of $72,478 was
included in an October RFI, to which three responses were received. One
respondent was too limited in resources to be usable. Two respondents,
though incomplete in themselves, are willing to enter into a collaborative
contract to provide the needed services. The Social Service Department is
therefore recommending a contract award as a "sole source" provider to
Family Support Services of the Bay Area, which will also incorporate the
services of the Family Stress Center's Respite Child Care Nursery.
