SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
This new Alcohol and Drug Services Treatment Agreement with Sunrise House replaces Agreement A-12235 which expires on June 30, 2015. Sunrise House will continue to provide Alcohol and Other Drug (AOD) Prevention services in the Salinas region of Monterey County. Some of the services Sunrise House prevention staff will provide include: Educate adults of the existing Social Host laws (SHO) and the legal consequences of providing alcohol to minors through media and forums; implement and maintain Responsible Beverage Service (RBS) training for local businesses in the Salinas region; conduct alcohol and drug education training; increase knowledge of consequences of alcohol abuse to students and adults; implement; and coordinate Monterey County Prevention Collaborative.
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.
