Q . 34
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION(S):
Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Donna Wigand) to execute on behalf
of the County, Novation Contract #74-164-3 with Sunny Hills Services (formerly Sunny Hills Children's
Garden), a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $235,308, to provide a Day Treatment program
for Seriously Emotionally Disturbed (SED) children, for the period from July 1, 2005 through June 30, 2006.
This contract includes a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2006, in an amount not to
exceed $117,654.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This Contract is funded 35%by Federal Medi-Cal (FFP)Revenue, 35%by State Early and Periodic Screening,
Diagnosis and Treatment(EPSDT), and 30%by Individuals with Disabilities Education Act(IDEA/SB90).
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
This EPSDT Program supports the following Board of Supervisors' community outcomes: "Children Ready
For and Succeeding in School"; "Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing"; and "Communities that are
Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families". Expected program outcomes include an
increase in positive social and emotional development as measured by the Child and Adolescent Functional
Assessment Scale(CAFAS) and placement at discharge at a lower level of care.
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
This Contract meets the social needs of County's population in that it provides Juvenile Court-mandated
rehabilitative day treatment, mental health services, and medication support for SED children with emotional
and behavioral problems to keep these children in the community and out of State hospitals.
On December 7, 2004, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74-164-3 .with Sunny Hills
Children's Garden (now known as Sunny Hills Services) for the period from July 1, 2004 through June 30,
2005, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2005, for the provision of a Day
Treatment program for Seriously Emotionally Disturbed(SED)children.
Approval of Novation Contract #74-164-4 replaces the automatic extension under the prior Contract and
allows the Sunny Hills Services to provide services through June 30, 2006.
