Battered Women's Alternatives — - --
East Co. Rape Crisis Unit
�aeZ�aW Crisis Unit, West Contra Costa BY DEPUTY
Rape Crisis Service, Central Contra Costa
III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
These contracts provide for the continuation of funding for the delivery of rape
crisis services to the community by the three rape crisis centers listed herein
and for the continuation of funding for the delivery of battered women's shelter
and support services to the community by the Battered Women's Alternatives Inc.
Funds for these community organizations are included within the District Attorney's
requested FY 1987-1988 budget.
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Failure to approve this request will result in the loss of most of the services
being provided by these organizations to citizens of the county. Inasmuch as county
funds represent a major source of financing for these organizations, it would be
necessary for them to drastically reduce their program operations and lay off most
of their staff.
