Summary of Request:
Mendocino County currently contracts with Mendocino Coast Hospitality Center (MCHC) to provide shelter services and related resources to clients on the coast, to address the needs of the Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) General Assistance (GA) clients and all of Mendocino County persons who are currently, or at risk of, experiencing homelessness. MCHC provides beds, meals, shower and laundry facilities, phone access, mail delivery, other amenities, outreach, and housing assistance to qualified individuals.
HHSA requests retroactive approval of the proposed Agreement. MCHC experienced a leadership change during the contract process, which caused the original contract to be delayed for several months. Significant workload created by emergency contracts due to the current COVID-19 pandemic led to additional delays that could not have been foreseen. Services covered by the Agreement are critical to persons who are experiencing homelessness, and the provision of services could not have been delayed or stopped due to the risk to the population served and the community as a whole.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Return to staff for alternative handling.
