SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION(S):
Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Donna Wigand) to execute
on behalf of the County, Novation Contract #24-959-13 with Family Stress Center, Inc., a non-
profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $72,000, to provide mental health services to
recipients of the Ca1WORKs Program, for the period from July 1, 2006 through June 30, 2007.
This Contract includes a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2007, in an amount
not to exceed$36,000.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This Contract is funded 100% by State CaIWORKs through the Employment and Human Services
Department.
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
In. August 1997, the State of California Legislature passed Assembly Bill 1542 which brought
major changes to the welfare programs previously operated by the State. Among the changes was
a provision that 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 th'e Employment and Human Services Department.

On January 24, 2006, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract # 24-959-11 (as
amended by Contract Amendment Agreement #24-959-12) with Family Stress Center, Inc., for the
period from July 1, 2005 through June 30, 2006 (with a six-month automatic extension through
December 31, 2006), for the provision of mental health services, including individual, group and
family collateral counseling, case management, and medication management services to
Ca1WORKs participants to reduce barriers to employment.
Approval of Novation Contract #24-959-13 replaces the automatic extension under the prior
