Ongoing Agreement. Most recent action: August 4, 2020, Item No. 4(f), BOS Agreement No. 20-114.
Summary of Request:
As part of Mendocino County’s obligation to provide Specialty Mental Health Services, the Health and Human Services Agency, Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (BHRS) contracts with Redwood Community Services, Inc. (RCS) to support clients living at Haven House and other supportive housing units in Mendocino County. These facilities offer supportive living environments for clients who have been court-ordered into Assisted Outpatient Treatment (AOT), or who require treatment under the
Lanterman-Petris-Short (LPS) Act. Staff support residents 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and provide services that include: behavioral health services (i.e., individual therapy, individual and group rehabilitation, care management, and crisis support), medication management, assistance with developing greater independence and stability, and connecting clients to other supportive services as indicated in each client’s treatment plan. Qualified specialty mental health services that are provided are billed through other agreements and not to this contract.
BHRS requests Board approval of the agreement with RCS to provide supported housing for Specialty Mental Health beneficiaries qualifying for Assisted Outpatient Treatment or Lanterman-Petris-Short Act Conservatorship on behalf of the County. This agreement with RCS differs from other agreements because funds are used only for housing costs and those supported housing services not reimbursed through specialty mental health billable services.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Return to staff for alternative handling.
