SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:

With the approval of Amendment No. 3, CCCIL will continue to provide work incentive counseling and independent living skills services to mental health clients, including youth, and their family members in an effort to determine their potential eligibility for various work incentive programs, extending those services an additional fiscal year through FY 2021-22. This Amendment No. 3 also expands and extends Whole Person Care (WPC) Rapid Re-housing and Support Services, and Rapid Re-housing Access an additional calendar year through December 31, 2021, providing case management services to clients who are homeless or chronically homeless.
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.
