RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):

 

Authorize the County Procurement Officer or Deputized designee to execute Amendment No. 7 to renew the contract with Dayle McIntosh Center for the Disabled to administer the Orange County Aging and Disability Resource Connection program in the amount of $596,495 for a term effective July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025, for a revised cumulative contract total amount not to exceed $2,565,409.

 

 

 

SUMMARY:

 

Approval of Amendment No. 7 to renew the contract with Dayle McIntosh Center for the Disabled will continue support of the Orange County Aging and Disability Resource Connection program and provide aging and disability services for the purpose of aging in place and avoiding premature placement in long-term care facilities among older adults and persons with disabilities.

 

 

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

 

The Orange County Aging and Disability Resource Connection program (ADRC), funded by the California Department of Aging (CDA), provides comprehensive, objective information and options counseling to clients looking for services, resources and programs in areas such as disability and long-term care, living arrangements, health and wellness, adult protective services, employment and training for people with disabilities using a No Wrong Door (NWD) service model. The goal of NWD is to serve populations through shared protocols, shared provider resource database, cross-training, and includes integrated intake functions and co-location of services.

 

The ADRC includes the Area Agency on Aging (AAA) and Independent Living Center (ILC) as core partners in operating the program. OC Community Resources/Office on Aging (OCCR/OoA) is the state-designated AAA for Orange County; Dayle McIntosh Center for the Disabled (DMC) is Orange County’s ILC. As the ILC, DMC provides independent living services, working with people with disabilities and older adults to address current concerns and achieve personal goals toward maximum independence. The ADRC core services include enhanced information and assistance, options counseling, short-term service coordination and transition coordination. OCCR/OoA provides enhanced information and assistance; DMC provides all four ADRC services.

 

On October 20, 2020, the Board of Supervisors (Board) approved a Memorandum of Understanding delineating the responsibilities of OCCR/OoA and DMC to expand the ADRC and to provide a single coordinated system for Orange County residents seeking reliable information and access to long-term services and support. On May 24, 2022, the Board approved the contract with DMC for FY 2022-23 to administer the ADRC, and on June 6, 2023, approved the contract renewal for FY 2023-24. See Attachment A for previous amendments to this contract.

 

OCCR/OoA requests approval of Amendment No. 7 with DMC for the term July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025. DMC will continue to provide the four core ADRC services and collaborate with OCCR/OoA on ADRC activities and quarterly CDA reporting. ADRC performance measures are not mandated by CDA due to the design of the program. Data is reported to CDA as services provided and completed under respective core services in joint efforts between OCCR/OoA and DMC.

 

The Contractor’s performance has been confirmed as satisfactory. OCCR has verified there are no concerns that must be addressed with respect to Contractor’s ownership/name, litigation status or conflicts with County interests. The Orange County Preference Policy is not applicable to this contract amendment. The contract with DMC includes subcontractors. See Attachment B for Contract Summary Form.

 

This Agenda Staff Report (ASR) is coming to the Board less than 30 days before the start of the contract due to the uncertainty of continued state ADRC funding. Once OCCR/OoA received notice of FY 2024-25 funding from CDA on April 17, 2024, staff initiated contract negotiations and ASR development for the earliest possible Board date.

 

 

 

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

 

Appropriations for this contract are included in Budget Control 012 FY 2024-25 Budget.

 

The contract includes a provision stating that the contract is subject to, and contingent upon, applicable budgetary appropriations approved by the Board for each fiscal year during the term of the contract. If such appropriations are not approved, the contract may be immediately terminated without penalty to the County.
