DATE: June 11, 1998 " County ; SUBJECT: APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Social Service Director, or designee, to RENEW contract #21-364 with Moss Beach Hames, Inc. for Receiving Center services. SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION($)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECQMMENDAMQN APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Social Service Director, or designee, to: RENEW contract 21-364 with Moss Beach Homes, Inc. for the provision of a Children's Receiving Center in East county to provide short term support and services for children at the point they enter Child Welfare Services. The contract will be for the period July 1, 1998 through June 30, 1999 and up to the amount of$190,600. FINANCIAL. I EAC T: Program costs have been included in the SSD budget at 70% State and 30°1 County shared cost ratio up to the Administrative Child Welfare Services cap, at which point the funding becomes 100% County cast. Legislation which would provide dedicated State funding for pilot Receiving Center projects (AB 696, Aroner) is still pending. It is expected that County casts for this facility will be offset by both reductions in numbers of children placed into long-term foster care, or more costly levels of care, and an increase in family reunification. CHILDREN'S IMEAa STATEMENT: The Children's Receiving Center supports three of Contra Costa County's community outcomes: "Children Ready for and Succeeding in School," "Children and Youth Healthy and Preparing for Productive Adulthood," and "Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing." When it is necessary to remove a child from his/her home, the Receiving Center provides a safe, child friendly place in the community which helps prevent disruption in school, and it provides services which meet basic needs for food, clothing, shelter and medical/mental health care. Additionally, by assisting workers in assessing a child's need for out-of-home care and available resources for children, and by providing time for family assessment, the Center helps reduce the number of disruptive placements to which a child is subjected. Expected program outcomes are an increase in the number of children who can be safely returned to their families or placed with relatives without going to emergency foster care, a reduction in the number of out-of-home placements a child experiences, and a reduction in the length of time a child spends in foster care.

CC:Gmta--t: Fabella, 313-1583 MAL ( ATTESTED 40 am= `0 � M) IL 8 ELOR,CLERK OF THE BOARD OF SUPE VISORS AND COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR M382 (10l88) BY .DEPUTY BACKCROLTNI�l�Y TMMARY; The Social Service Department's Child Welfare Services program made numerous changes over the past several years in an effort to improve protective services, reunify children with their families sooner, and increase permanency planning opportunities for children for whom reunification is not possible. As part of these efforts, the Department reorganized its approach to meeting the needs of children who must be removed from their caretakers due to abuse, neglect, abandonment or exploitation. The new "Emergency Care System" has three basic components which include receiving centers, dedicated short-term emergency group homes, and emergency foster homes. Vast year, the Board of Supervisors approved the establishment of an initial receiving center in East county. Moss Beach Homes, Inc. was selected as the contractor as the result of Request For Proposals #1044. The receiving center provides a single point of reception/entry into the shelter care system and offers support services for less than 24 hours, providing intervention counseling, food, clothing, bathing facilities and transportation for children when necessary. The ongoing assessment of out-of-home care placement needs and available resources for children would be a regular part of the services offered at the center. The service plan and budget for the renewed contract are based on the utilization levels and service outcomes of the first year of the pilot project. The 1998/99 FY budget reflects a reduction of$9,400 from the prior year,and includes allocations for service enhancements which would allow 24-hour access to the facility and an additional 1,920 hours of direct child care and supervision. In addition to ongoing evaluation of the East County Receiving Center the contractor, Moss Beach Homes, Inc., also continues to provide technical assistance and guidance to Imani Facilities, Inc.,the contractor selected to implement Receiving Center services in West County.

FINANCIAL IMPACT: None,the fee payment will be 1001%federal funds. III. CHILDREN IMPACT STATEMENT: This action will provide employment/training services to to appropriate JTPA eligible participants. This will support the third outcome—Families that are economically self sufficient. IV. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION: Contra Costa County PIC, in collaboration with the Alameda,Oakland and Richmond PICS, has entered into a collabration to establish an East Bay Workforce Development System with 17 service points. This collaboration, known as EASTBAY Works , has received special competitive grants from the State and Federal Government to build an electronic infastructure and to implement a set of linked and coordinated service points. Actual day to day operation of the two County four PIC programs will be from allotted funds subject to normal JTPA procedures. The Contra Costa County PIC currently does not have a service point in the south County. However,we do have South County JTPA eligibles for the dislocated and older worker programs. We have been serving this group from our Concord service point. The establishment of EASTBAY Works with electronic linkages allows us to serve our south county population from the Alameda PIC Dublin site. This is much more convenient for south county JTPA eligibles,where numbers are not great enough to justify the establishment of a separate service point. This will also allow us to accomplish locally based job development in the Tri- Valley area. r CONTINUED ON ATTACHMENT: YES SIGNATURE: ._ ✓,.s RECOMMENDATION OF COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR RECOMMENDATION OF BOARD COMMITTEE..
