TO: Board of Supervisors
SUBMITTED BY: Kirk Haynes, Chief Probation Officer
SUBJECT: Agreement with BI Incorporated
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
TITLE
Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute an Agreement with BI Incorporated for the provision of group interventions and related case management services for probation-involved youth, effective July 1, 2022, not to exceed five consecutive years, which includes a three-year base contract and two optional one-year extensions, total not to exceed $1,800,000.
REPORT
There is no additional Net County Cost associated with the recommended action, as costs for the recommended agreement will be funded with the ongoing California Division of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) allocation funds. The funding is allocated in accordance with SB 823, which stopped the intake of youth to DJJ custodial facilities and transferred responsibility for the custody, care, and supervision of high-risk youth to the local county jurisdiction. Approval of the recommended action will allow BI Incorporated to provide group interventions and related case management services for probation-involved youth, both in and out of custody. This item is countywide.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION(S):
If the recommended action is not approved, the County may have to complete another request for proposal, which will result in a delay in the provision of the services to probation-involved youth in and out of custody, until such time that a new vendor is selected.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no increase in Net County Cost associated with the recommended action, which will be funded by the ongoing DJJ allocation funding, Org 3440, $360,000 for FY 2022-23. The maximum compensation for the recommended agreement is $360,000 annually, and $1,800,000 for the potential five-year term. Sufficient appropriations and estimated revenue will be included in the FY 2022-23 Probation Org 3440 Recommended Budget and future budget requests.
