SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
This new Alcohol and Drug Services Treatment Agreement with Community Human Services replaces Agreement A-12237 which expires on June 30, 2015. Community Human Services provides residential and non-residential alcohol and drug recovery services for Medi-Cal, Non-Medi-Cal, Drug Treatment Court and CalWORKS eligible Monterey County residents. Approval of this Agreement will assure continued services to Monterey County men and women age 18 or older with primary addiction to drug(s). Intravenous drug users and HIV+ clients will receive priority admission.
This Agreement contains the County’s standard 30 day termination provision (Section 5), which provides the County the ability to amend or terminate the Agreement in the event of a reduction and/or termination of funding (Section 6). Should the funding be reduced or terminated, Behavioral Health Bureau will implement a plan to terminate this Agreement as needed.
This work supports the 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.
