Summary of Request:
Redwood Community Services, Inc. (RCS) provides Specialty Mental Health Services (SMHS) and Mental Health Services Act (MHSA) programs to Mendocino County youth (0-18), transitional age youth (19-24) and adult (25+) residents in Ukiah, Willits, and Fort Bragg within the schools, community, and office. On July 11, 2023, the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors approved Agreement No. BOS-23-126 through which RCS provides Assessment, Plan Development, Collateral, Therapy, Rehabilitation, Targeted Case Management, Intensive Care Coordination, Intensive Home-Based Services, Therapeutic Behavioral Services, and Therapeutic Foster Care. RCS serves up to 300 youth (0-18), 150 transitional age youth (19-24), and 300 adult beneficiaries, and provides 900 crisis services under SMHS. MHSA programs provided by RCS include Integrated Care Coordination for beneficiaries through the Wellness and Recovery Center, Crisis Support and follow up services for Medi-Cal and indigent clients, Supported Housing Services, Full Service Partnerships, and Behavioral Health Court to better serve consumers with severe mental illnesses and severe emotional disturbances. RCS serves up to 350 individuals through the Arbor program, 24 individuals through Transitional Age Youth Housing, and 300 individuals through Crisis Services under MHSA.
Due to payment reform and an increase in the number of clients being served, the proposed Amendment to Agreement No. BOS-23-126 increases the total amount by $395,000, specifically in the specialty mental health allocation, for a new Agreement total of $11,574,365 for RCS to continue providing SMHS in Mendocino County. Once the proposed Amendment is executed, it will be effective for the full term of the Agreement from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024.
