The Alameda County Health Care Services Agency's Behavioral Health Care Services (BHCS) awarded a contract augmentation to Lincoln Child Center, located in Oakland, CA, to provide outpatient mental health services for clients referred by the Alameda County Probation Department (ACPD). The contract, originally valued at $8,171,753, was increased by $684,210 to a total of $8,855,963 for the period from July 1, 2015, to June 30, 2016. Lincoln Child Center will implement the evidence-based Parenting with Love and Limits (PLL) program, serving approximately 100 additional families annually, including both Medi-Cal and non-Medi-Cal eligible youth and their caregivers. The contract supports ACPD's strategy to stabilize families and prevent out-of-home placements, with funding from Medi-Cal revenue, 2011 Realignment, and Title IV-E Waiver, without increasing net County cost. The services are delivered throughout Alameda County, California, and the award followed a competitive RFP process involving multiple bidders.
