Provide fiscally sound, dynamic and responsive services |
Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
Substance abuse is a major factor contributing to child abuse and neglect in Yolo County. DESS is mandated to provide treatment services for parents whose children have been removed from the home, or whose children are at immediate risk of being removed from the home, due to substance abuse. Substance abuse also continues to erect barriers to employment and self-sufficiency for families. The Department is seeking extension of this existing contract through Fiscal Year 2015-16 in order to get this contract on the same cycle as all similar contracts to allow the Department to issue one RFP next year. The anticipated annual expenditure for this agreement in FY 2015-16 remains the same as in FY 2014-15.

Explanation (Expenditure and/or Revenue) |
Further explanation as needed: |
This Agreement provides funding for substance abuse treatment services for both Child Welfare Services (CWS) and Cal Works (CW) referred clients. The cost related to services provided to CWS referred clients is supported by Realignment funds. The cost related to services provided to CW clients does not require additional county funds given the CW program has a Maintenance of Effort (MOE), which was appropriated in the 2014/15 budget; the 2015/16 budget will also include the MOE for the CW program. The funding for this item will be included in the 15/16 requested budget.
