DISCUSSION:
On Nov. 6, 2018 (Item C-23), the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors (Board) approved a lease for The Center at McKinleyville which is located at 1615 Heartwood Drive, McKinleyville , California. The build-to-suit project broke ground April 15, 2019, and the Grand Opening occurred April 20, 2022. McKinleyville Community Collaborative has been the lead organization in preparing for the integration and collaborative project.
The Center at McKinleyville is a product of intense collaboration between the Humboldt County DHHS - Social Services, McKinleyville Community Collaborative, the North Coast Regional Department of Child Support Services, open Door Community Health Center and other partner agencies, and is a model for service delivery and regionalization. The attached professional services agreement will allow McKinleyville Community Collaborative to perform certain service integration functions, including, without limitation, the provision of hospitality, community engagement, cross agency collaboration, training and evaluation and other related services. Such integration services, while not directly required by statute, support the delivery of mandated services to residents of the greater McKinleyville area.
Accordingly, DHHS - Social Services recommends the Board approve, and authorize the Chair of the Board to execute, the attached professional services agreement with McKinleyville Community Collaborative regarding the performance of service integration functions at The Center at McKinleyville for the period of July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. It is also recommended the Board authorize the DHHS - Social Services Director, or a designee thereof, to execute any and all subsequent amendments to the attached professional services agreement with McKinleyville Community Collaborative, after review and approval by County Counsel, Risk Management and the CAO, in order to avoid any unnecessary delays in the performance of needed service integration functions.
