Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
The Yolo County Step Down Housing project is the first and necessary step in a larger project that is intended to expand and enhance the continuum of care for the Medi-Cal-eligible and justice-involved population in Yolo County, by linking members of the target population with needed substance use and mental health disorders treatment and health services.
Approval of this Agreement will support the Intergovernmental Transfer (IGT) funding spending plan, which designates the funds towards the purchase of a 3 or 4 bedroom, single family residential property to provide supportive housing to the Medi-Cal-eligible, justice-involved population of Yolo County. This facility will provide safe, stable shelter coupled with mandated wrap-around services focused on meeting individuals’ behavioral health and basic health needs, including substance use disorder and mental health treatment, linkage to oral health services and health services for prevention and management of chronic disease. The Yolo County Probation Department will provide onsite daily case management services to the tenants of this home and will partner closely with CommuniCare Health Centers, as the provider of needed health services. |
