Reason for Recommended Action/Background
Under this agreement, CommuniCare Health Centers will provide mental health, family counseling and/or substance abuse treatment services to up to 50 justice-involved youth at any given time who are under the age of 21 years and are residents of Yolo County or have system involvement in Yolo County. Services and treatment will be community-centered rather than facility-based and patterned upon evidence-based or best practice models of treatment, incorporating principles of resiliency and recovery. Services will be informed by Probation Case Plans, and often driven by Court orders.
Currently, there is an agreement in place for these services between Probation and CommuniCare Health Centers which ends on March 31, 2022. Oversight of the contract for these services is transitioning to HHSA. A Request for Proposals process was conducted, and CommuniCare Health Centers was ultimately selected to provide these services going forward. To ensure there is no lapse in service, HHSA requests the Board the Supervisors authorize the Procurement Manager to execute this new agreement.
Performance Measures will be included in the provider agreement.
