SUBJECT: Approval to Contract with Challenge Grant II Subcontractors
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Probation Officer to execute three contracts for
$253,352 each, with REACH Project, Inc. (Antioch), STARS, Inc. (Piedmont) and Community
Violence Solutions (Rape Crisis Center, San Pablo), to provide therapeutic day treatment
services as components of the Juvenile Crime Enforcement and Accountability Challenge
Grant II through June 30, 2002.
BACKGROUND:
The State of California, under Senate Bill 2108 (Chapter 502, Statutes of 1998), provided $50
million for a second round of Challenge Grants and the 1998-99 Budget Act provided an
additional $10 million for implementation of these grants.
On February 23, 1999 the Board of Supervisors approved the Board Order and Resolution
authorizing the County Probation Officer to contract with the State Board of Corrections for
these grant funds. The contracts have been signed and returned to the Board of Corrections.
An integral part of this project is to open three-day treatment centers for high-risk female
juveniles in three locations throughout the county. This is a partnership with Probation,
Children's Mental Health and the County School's Department and the Board of Corrections
has approved this proposal. Services will be provided to 20 to 30 girls per site with services
ranging from education, vocational services, substance abuse counseling, health education
and mental health services. Following an extensive request for proposals and screening
process, the three organizations selected to provide these services are REACH Project, Inc.
(East County), STARS, Inc. (Central County), and Community Violence Solutions (Rape Crisis
Center, West County).
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Board of Corrections requires a 25% county match, but the necessary match
requirements will be met through federal funds that are generated by the project
components.
