SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
Family Agency of San Francisco dba Felton Institute is a non-profit agency providing Prevention and Recovery in Early Psychosis (PREP) services to Medi-Cal eligible Monterey County residents ages 14-35. The PREP program is an evidence based treatment that identified psychosis at the earliest possible point to reduce the impact of psychosis on the individual and their family. PREP has shown to have dramatic improvement in reducing crises, avoiding hospitalizations, and improving functional capacity; promoting school/workforce participation; and engaging youth and families. This Amendment No. 1 will add additional mental health services to serve non Medi-Cal eligible Monterey County youth in need of this level of care effective June 1, 2018.
This Agreement contains the County’s standard 30-day “no cause” provision (Section IV, B) and an additional defunding provision (Section IV, D), which provides the County the ability to amend or terminate the Agreement in the event of a reduction and/or termination of funding.
This work supports the following Monterey County Health Department 2011-2015 strategic plan initiative: 3) Ensure access to culturally and linguistically appropriate, customer-friendly, quality health services. It also supports one of the ten essential public health services, specifically: 7) Link people to needed personal health services and assure the provisions of health care when otherwise unavailable.
