BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
This Contract meets the social needs of County's population in that it provides respite and mentoring services
to families of children with serious emotional and behavioral disturbances to reduce family stress, support
family stability, prevent neglect and abuse, and minimize the need for out-of-home placements.
On February 7, 2006, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74-107-8 with Family Stress
Center, Inc. for the period from July 1, 2006 through June 30, 2007, which included a six-month automatic
extension through December 31,2007, for the provision of respite and mentoring services.
Approval of Novation Contract #74-107-9 replaces the automatic extension under the prior Contract and
allows the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30,2008.
