SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
Door to Hope (DTH) facilitates various treatment centers for alcoholism, drug abuse and mental health rehabilitation services throughout the City of Salinas. This Amendment adds the Santa Lucia program for FY 2013-14 thru FY 2014-15. This Agreement consists of five (5) program components: Families First and Foremost, Integrated Co-occurring Treatment (ICT), Monterey County Screening Team for Assessment, Referral and Treatment (MCSTART) ages 0 - 5 and MCSTART ages 6 - 11, Nueva Esperanza, and Santa Lucia.
Approval of this Amendment is mission critical to meet the requirements of the Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) and to sustain the continuity of core services to the children and their families in Monterey County. The goal of each program is to improve the child's and youth's development, improve overall functioning as well as family functioning, and reduce the possibility of future residential care, out-of-home placement, and/or hospitalization.
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.
