DATE: April 13, 1989 Count/
SUBJECT: Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement 4624-705-25 with
We Care Society, Inc . for Child Day Treatment Services
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(;S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I . RECOMMENDED ACTION :
Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute on behalf of the
County, Contract Amendment Agreement #24-705-25 with We Care
Society, Inc . effective April 25 , 1989 to amend Contract
4624-705-24 (effective July 1 , 1988 - June 30 , 1989) for day
treatment services for high risk, developmentally delayed, or
emotionally disturbed children . This amendment increases the
contract payment limit by $25 , 000 , from $278 ,343 to $303 , 343 ,
enabling the contractor to continue providing transportation
services for County-funded children enrolled in contractor ' s day
treatment program.
II . FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Approval of this amendment will result in a $25 ,000 increase in
the contract payment limit , from $278 , 343 to a new total
payment limit of $303, 343 . The increase is jointly funded by
the Health Services Department ' s budget for FY 1988-89 and the
Social Service Department via an interdepartmental charge . The
interdepartmental charge transferred $12 , 500 for this amendment
from Social Service Department Org 465105 to Health Services
Department Org 465952 .
III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND :
On December 13 , 1988 , the Board approved Novation Contract
4624-705-24 with We Care Society, Inc. for child day treatment
services . This long-standing program provides day treatment
services for preschoolers with measurable delays in interper-
sonal , social /emotional , language and cognitive development or
children who are at risk of such delays . Included are abused ,
developmentally delayed , emotionally disturbed and environmen-
tally deprived children who do not meet the criteria for any
categorical funding source for services .
Families of these children are frequently disorganized, without
transportation to program services . The contractor has
experienced a 66% increase in the cost per trip for providing
transportation services to County-funded children. Without
additional monies , these children cannot continue to be served.
