Summary of Request

This item requests approval of the Agreement with Redwood Community Services, Inc. DBA Redwood Community Crisis Center (RC3) to provide 24/7 crisis response, and outreach and engagement, to children and young adults in Mendocino County who are experiencing crisis episodes. When applicable, services are funded through Medi-Cal and/or the Mental Health Services Act Community Services and Supports (MHSACSS). Many times, youth may be uninsured, and unable to apply for Medi-Cal due to immigration issues, etc. Through the proposed Agreement, RC3 will serve qualified youth, including Transitional Aged Youth (TAY) up to their 25th birthday, and youth with First Episode Psychosis (FEP), regardless of ability to pay.

 

Through this Agreement, RC3 will offer crisis services to 100% of clients at assessment with a focus on stabilization and linkage to providers within the community, and will provide 24/7 crisis response, crisis assessment and stabilization services to all FEP clients in a timely manner throughout all of Mendocino County. RC3 will also provide 60 days of in-house rehabilitation and therapeutic services to FEP crisis clients and will provide referrals and/or linkages to appropriate community resources for long-term, post-crisis stabilization, to FEP clients who consent.
