Summary of Request:
On August 25, 2021, the Mental Health Treatment Act Citizens’ Oversight Committee voted to recommend that Measure B funds be used to contribute to the operations of Crisis Respite Services in the city of Fort Bragg for the Mendocino Coast. Many stakeholders working in the mental health field expressed firm commitment to the project, such as the City of Fort Bragg Homeless Ad Hoc Committee, the Fort Bragg Police Department, Adventist Health, Redwood Quality Management Company DBA Anchor Health Management, and Redwood Community Services, Inc. (RCS).
Adventist Health leases the facility specifically for Crisis Respite Services to RCS, and through the Agreement, RCS provides such services at the facility using a similar model as the Madrone House in Redwood Valley. In Fiscal Year 23/24, RCS served 28 clients at the Cypress House Crisis Respite in Fort Bragg and Year to Date for FY 24/25 they have served 31 clients.
This amendment will extend the expiration date of the agreement to June 30, 2027 and increases the total amount of the agreement to cover the services provided during that period.
