Summary of Request:
Health and Human Services Agency, Family and Children’s Services (FCS), is committed to excellence in the delivery of child welfare services in a child-focused, family centered and culturally competent manner. Because that commitment includes providing services for client of FCS, FCS requests Board approval of the agreement with Ford Street Project to provide detox and residential substance abuse treatment services, and weekend drug testing for FCS clients.
Ford Street Project, the only detox and residential substance abuse treatment facility in Mendocino County, provides treatment for parents involved with FCS. Treatment includes up to 14 days of detox, and 30 to 120 days of residential substance abuse treatment, as part of FCS client case plans. In addition, because Ford Street Project is open 7 days a week, it also provides weekend drug testing for FCS clients who are not in detox or residential treatment but are required to provide random drug testing as part of their FCS case plans. These services as provided by Ford Street Project are crucial, as over 80% of parents whose children have been removed by FCS are involved with drugs and alcohol, and successful substance abuse treatment is a key step to reuniting them with their children.

Return to staff for alternative handling.
