Title
Consider recommendations regarding a Contract Renewal with Child Abuse Listening and Meditation (CALM) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2020-2021, as follows:
a) Approve and authorize the Chair to execute an Agreement for Services of Independent Contractor with CALM, a California nonprofit corporation (and local vendor), for the provision of mental health services for FY 2020-2021, for a total contract maximum amount not to exceed $3,046,311.00 for the period of July 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021;
b) Delegate to the Behavioral Wellness Director, or designee, the authority to make immaterial changes to the agreement, amend the staffing requirements of a particular program; reallocate funds between funding sources during the term of the agreement, as long as there is no change to the Maximum Contract Amount; and amend the program goals, outcomes, and measures in Exhibit E, all without needing to return to the Board for a formal amendment to the Agreement, subject to the Board’s authority to rescind this delegated authority at any time; and
c) Determine that the above actions are government fiscal activities which will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment, pursuant to section 15378(b)(4) of the California Environmental Act (CEQA) guidelines.
