previously operated by the State . Among the changes was a provision
which required treatment of substance abuse and mental illnesses of
Welfare-to-Work participants, when these conditions interfere with
participation in Welfare-to-Work activities . Subsequently, the
County' s Employment and Human Services Department and Health
Services Department signed an Interdepartmental Services Agreement
(#21-427) which allowed the Health Services Department to provide
substance abuse and mental health services to Welfare-to-Work
participants referred by the Employment and Human Services
Department .
Under Contract #74-115, Contractor will provide mental health
services, including individual, group and family collateral
counseling, case management, and medication management services for
Spanish-speaking CalWORKs participants to reduce barriers to
