Memorandum
This resolution seeks Council approval for a service agreement with Home of New Vision for mental health and substance abuse treatment services to 15th Judicial District defendants who are participants in the Court's Mental Health Court program. These services are funded by a grant from the Supreme Court of Michigan State Court Administrative Office for Grant Fiscal Year 2018, and without regard to City Fiscal Year.
Budget/Fiscal Impact: Services provided under this agreement will be funded through the State Court Administrative Office Michigan Mental Health Court Grant Program (SCAO-MMHCGP) ($27,405.00). The grant award was accepted and contract approved by City Council on October 16, 2017 (R-17-382).
Approval of a ten percent (10%) contingency amount is also requested to allow the Court to increase services should additional funds become available for mental health and/or substance abuse treatment services through an approved SCAO grant program budget amendment (e.g., approved grant project line-item budget adjustments within the total program award).
