Cancellation Agreement #24-086-113-2 with Winnie Harrison (dba'

Under this program, the County paid the State-established rates'
for the residential care of mental health clients who are not yet'
receiving SSI/SSP (but who are potentially eligible and have made'
formal application to the Social Security Administration for,
SSI/SSP) , contingent upon the client 's signing an agreement with
the County to reimburse the County from the SSI/SSP money, once itt
is finally granted by the federal government (usually 3 to 6
months retroactively back to the month of application) .
For those mental health clients who are not granted SSI/SSP (i.e . ,
are found ineligible) , the County covers the residential care'
payments to the facility operators throughthe County' s'
established Mental Health Program Funding. Initially, ten to
twenty percent of the clients are found ineligible by the Federal'
Social Security Administration, depending on changes, in Federal'
guidelines, and then some of these are ultimately found eligible
through appeal processes.

Placement Agreement #24-086-113-1 with Winnie Harrison (dba
Harrimon House) for the period from January 1,, 1998 through

this Agreement . Approval of Cancellation Agreement #24-086-113-2
