JORNLIN, DIRECTOR I Contra Social Service Department Costa DATE: June 10, 1987 C SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF INTERIM CONTRACT FOR PARENT AIDE SERVICES (Contract No. 20-665) SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION I. RECOMMENDATION Approve and authorize the' Chairman to sign an Interim Contract with Family Stress Center, Inc. for the provision of Parent Aide services for the period July 1, 1987 through September 30, 1987, in the amount of $17, 500. II . FINANCIAL IMPACT The Department' s FY 1987-88 budget presently includes funds for the provision of Parent Aide services on an interim basis only. Full fiscal year funding will need to be established as part of the finalized County budget for FY 1987-88. The County Welfare Director' s ,proposal for full-year funding is outlined in his June 4, 1987 memo on Parent Aide services which was previously sent to the County Administrator and members of the Board of Supervisors. III. BACKGROUND AND REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION For the past several years, Parent Aide services for the Social Service Department' s Protective Services Program have been provided by Contra Costa Children' s Council. That agency has recently redefined its goals and objectives and will no longer provide this service in the upcoming fiscal year. It is imperative that the Department not lose Parent Aide services. These services are mandated in State regulations and are often an alternative to placing children in institu- tions or group homes. The Family Stress Center has had experience in providing Parent Aide services and is the only nonprofit agency that can continue this service without interruption. Family Stress Center is willing to enter into an Interim Contract to provide this service Countywide, and will use the current parent aides now employed by Children' s Council.
