SUBMITTED BY: Dawan Utecht, Director, Department of Behavioral Health
SUBJECT: LPC Amendment II to Agreement 16-432 for additional Prevention Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
TITLE
Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute Amendment No. II to Agreement No. 16-432 with LPC Consulting Associates, Inc. to expand services to include the development of a Strategic Prevention Plan and to add new State and Federal boilerplate provisions, effective upon execution and increasing the maximum by $65,000 to a total of $435,000.
