ABSOLUTELY THANK YOU -- THERE
WAS A QUESTION ON THE AGENDA
REGARDING THE -- BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH SUPPORT WARM WIND AND
WEATHER THE WARM WIND FUNDED
UNDER THE AGE TO BE A SPENDING
PLAN IS THE SAME WARM LINE
PROPOSED IN THIS -- PCP AND
THE ANSWER IS YES IT IS -- THE
FUNDING FOR THE WARMIND UNDER
H. CVS EXPIRES -- AT THE END
OF THIS CALENDAR YEAR SO ON
TWELVE THIRTY FIRST AT TWENTY
TWENTY THREE -- THEREFORE THIS
FUNDING CERTAINLY IS NEEDED
TO CONTINUE -- THE WARM LINE
FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS
THE OTHER TOPIC THAT WE WERE
ASKED TO ADDRESS HAS TO DO WITH
THE H. C. B. S. SPENDING PLAN
INITIATIVES WE ARE PROPOSING TO
EXTEND FOR OF OUR INITIATIVES
THE INITIATIVES ARE -- ACCESS
TO TECHNOLOGY FOR OLDER ADULTS
AND PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES
THE ADULT AND DISABILITY
RESOURCE CONNECTION INTEROP
INTER OPERABILITY FUNDING
CAL GROWS AND ATTRITION
INFRASTRUCTURE WE BELIEVE THAT
FOR THE A. T. AND T. FOR THE A.
T. T. PROGRAM -- THE FORTY TWO
PARTICIPATING COUNTIES OUT OF
SIGNED CONTRACTS WITH CDA WOULD
BENEFIT WITH ADDITIONAL TIME FOR
THEM TO START UP THEIR PROGRAMS
-- ENTER INTO AGREEMENTS WITH
LOCAL TECHNOLOGY PROVIDERS --
IN ORDER TO PURCHASE TABLETS
SERVICE PLANS AND TRAINING FOR
LOCAL PARTICIPANTS FOR -- CAL
GROWS INITIATIVE WHICH IS OUR
DIRECT WORKFORCE INITIATIVE WE
BELIEVE THAT THE SEVENTY EIGHT
CONTRACTS ARE AWARDED AS PART
OF THIS INITIATIVE TO LOCAL
PROVIDERS WOULD PROVIDE --
PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS ADDITIONAL
TIME TO TAKE TRAININGS -- TO
MAXIMIZE THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE
RECEIVING TRAINING AS WELL
AS -- THE TIME NEEDED FOR THE
PARTICIPANTS TO -- TAKE THE
TRAINING NECESSARY TO RECEIVE
STIPENDS FOR THE NUTRITION
INFRASTRUCTURE FUNDING I
THINK THIS COMMITTEE HAS
HEARD COMMENTS FROM WHEELS ON
WHEELS CALIFORNIA ABOUT THE
DIFFICULTY AND SECURING CERTAIN
EQUIPMENT AND TRANSPORTATION
SUCH AS VEHICLES DUE TO SUPPLY
CHAIN -- ISSUES WE BELIEVE
THAT THE EXTENSION WILL HELP
THEM -- REQUIRE MORE OF THE
NECESSARY EQUIPMENT AND VEHICLES
AND THEN FINALLY FOR INTER
OPERABILITY FUND -- THIS FUND
IS REALLY INTENDED TO DO A
COUPLE THINGS ONE SET UP A
STATE DATA REPOSITORY TO HELP
FURTHER -- THE GOALS OF THE
MASTER PLAN FOR AGING AS WELL
AS A CUSTOMER FACING -- WEB
PORTAL -- AND WE BELIEVE THAT
THE ADDITIONAL TIME WILL ALLOW
US TO FINISH THE DESIGN AND
SKIPPING WORK -- NECESSARY FOR
THESE INITIATIVES AND I
BELIEVE THOSE ARE THE QUESTIONS
WE'RE ASKED TO RESPOND TO
THE PREVENTIVA
THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR MEMBERS
JENNY BELLOW AT THE LEGISLATIVE
ANALYST'S OFFICE ON THE
OLDER ADULT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH
INITIATIVE -- WE ARE CURRENTLY
REVIEWING THE PROPOSAL AT A
HIGH LEVEL WE WOULD AGREE THAT
IT ALIGNS WITH THE GOALS OF THE
MASTER PLAN ON AGING THAT SAID
WE DO WANT TO LOOK AT IT MORE
CLOSELY AND ASK SOME QUESTIONS
AROUND HOW THIS SPECIFIC
INITIATIVES WERE PACKED HOW THE
FUNDING ACROSS THOSE INITIATIVES
WAS DECIDED IN ACROSS THE YEARS
I HOW THE PROGRAMS WILL BE
EVALUATED GOING FORWARD HOW
QUICKLY WE COULD REALLY GET
THIS UP AND RUNNING FEASIBLY
-- AND GIVEN THE CURRENT BUDGET
CONDITIONS SORT OF AND WITHOUT
PREJUDICE TO THE PROPOSAL OUT
WHAT SORT OF HEALTH AND SAFETY
RISKS AS THAT SORT OF PREVENTING
OR BY BY DOING THIS PROPOSAL
SO WHAT IT'S LIKE REALLY AT
STAKE HERE -- AND FINALLY HOW
WILL THE LOCAL GRANT AWARDEES
BE SELECTED SO JUST SOME
QUESTIONS WE'D LIKE TO EXPLORE
WITH THE ADMINISTRATION WE
JUST HAVEN'T HAD A CHANCE YET
-- ON THE EXTENSION ON THE
HOME AND COMMUNITY BASED
SERVICES SPENDING PLAN AS A
SUB COMMITTEE DISCUSSED SEVERAL
WEEKS AGO IT'S NOT SURPRISING
THAT SOME OF THESE PROGRAMS
WERE SLOW TO START CONSISTING
THIS EXTENSION WE DO SEE IS
A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
WE'RE CURRENTLY IN RECEIPT OF
THE OF THE SECTION LETTER THAT
ALIGNS WITH THIS REQUEST OVER
REVIEWING IT AND SOME OF THE
QUESTIONS ARE REALLY HOPING
TO ANSWER IS REALLY JUST WHAT
IS THE MOST RECENT EXPENDITURE
DATA FOR ALL ALL OF THE PROGRAMS
WITHIN THE H. C. B. S. SPENDING
PLAN HOW WAS THE HOW ARE THE
PROGRAM SELECTED THAT WERE
CHOSEN FOR THE EXTENSION AND
HOW DO THOSE PROJECTIONS LOOK
HOW DO WE SEE THE SPENDING
ACTUALLY -- DRYING COMPLETELY
DOWN IN THE EXTENDED SIX MONTHS
AND ARE THERE OTHER PROGRAMS
THAT ARE SORT OF ON THE COST
OF THAT COULD BENEFIT FROM AN
EXTENSION TO THOSE ARE SOME OF
THE QUESTIONS WE HAVE AS WE'RE
LOOKING AT IT THANK YOU TO
PROPONENTS HER SCRIPTED
WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
-- YOU SEE THAT COMES FROM
LA -- AND AND NOTHING FURTHER
TO ADD TO SEE THESE COMMENTS
THIS TIME LOOK FOR TO CONTINUE
WORKING WITH THE LEGISLATURE
PERFECT THANK YOU I'M I WOULD
HAVE A COUPLE QUESTIONS --
AND I'LL START OFF WITH THE
FIRST ONE I KNOW YOU MENTION
THIS FOR DIFFERENT GOALS FOR
PROGRAMS UNDER THE H. TWO B.
AS ARE GOING TO BE EXTENDED MY
QUESTION IS KINDA LINES WITH
THE LEO I'M SEEING THE REQUEST
FOR THE OLDER ADULT FRIENDSHIP
LINE WAS BEING FUNDED UNDER
A CBS CAN YOU WALK ME THROUGH
JUST THE CONSIDERATION IT WAS
GIVEN FOR IT NOT TO BE EXTENDED
AND THAT'S COMING HERE TO
REQUEST FOR GENERAL FUND MONEY
CORRECT SO THE UNDER THE AGE
HAS SPENDING PLAN THE AMOUNT OF
FUNDING THAT WAS PROVIDED FOR
THE FRIENDSHIP LINE -- REALLY
WOULD CARRY US THROUGH TWELVE
THIRTY ONE OF TWENTY TWENTY
THREE -- WE WOULD HAVE HAD
TO DISCONTINUE THE SERVICE --
EFFECTIVE JANUARY FIRST HAD THE
-- YEAH I HAD YOU KNOW IF THIS
PROPOSAL DOESN'T GO FORWARD
JUST CONFIRMING ALL THE MONEY
ALLOTTED FOR IT IT'S GOING TO
RUN OUT INTO CORRECT PERFECT
THANK YOU SO MUCH MY SECOND
QUESTION IS -- YOU KNOW GIVEN
YOU KNOW THIS DIRE BUDGET THAT
WERE IN AND YOU KNOW SOME OF
THE PRIORITIES HERE IN SUB THREE
YOU'VE HEARD IS THINGS THAT ARE
REALLY GONNA PUT FOOD IN FRONT
OF PEOPLE'S ARE AT PEOPLE'S
TABLES HELP ENSURE THAT THEY
DON'T FALL INTO HOMELESSNESS
JUST THE SAFETY NET ISSUES OF IT
OFF SO IN IN SEEN THIS REQUEST
OF TEN POINT FIVE MILLION FOR
A MEDIA CAMPAIGN YOU WALK ME
THROUGH THAT JUST LIKE THE
DIRE NEED FOR A MEDIA CAMPAIGN
RIGHT NOW GIVEN THE DEFICIT
YES APPS ABSOLUTELY -- AND
AND WE UNDERSTAND THE CONCERN
I THINK YOU KNOW ONE OF THE
CITY THERE'S A FEW STATISTICS
AND WE REALLY LOOK OUT WHEN
IT COMES TO OLDER ADULTS --
APRIL HEALTH ONE IS THAT IT'S
BEEN A VERY UNDER PUBLICIZED
-- ISSUE -- THERE'S BEEN A LOT
OF ATTENTION PAID TO -- YOU
KNOW CHILDREN -- TEENAGER YOUNG
ADULT BE CAREFUL HEALTH AND AND
RIGHTFULLY SO -- BUT WE DO FEEL
THAT -- WHEN IT COMES TO OLDER
ADULT BEHAVIORAL HEALTH THAT
THAT IS AN ISSUE THAT'S BEEN
SORELY NEGLECTED FOR SEVERAL
YEARS AND HE SUGGESTED THAT WE
ALWAYS LOOK AT IS -- THERE'S A
RECENT STUDY BY THE CALIFORNIA
HEALTH CARE FOUNDATION'S HEALTH
POLICY SURVEY THAT REPORTED THAT
OLDER ADULTS SIXTY FIVE CLASS
ARE THE GROUP THAT ARE LEAST
LIKELY TO RECEIVE MENTAL HEALTH
CARE -- COMPARED ALL OTHER AGE
GROUPS SO I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT
THAT THE WORD GETS OUT THAT --
WE REALLY DO PUBLICIZE MENTAL
AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES
-- FOR OLDER ADULTS ONE THAT
THEY'RE AVAILABLE AND THAT --
TO REDUCE THE STIGMA AGAINST
OLDER ADULTS THINKING TO GO
IN AND RECEIVE -- APPEAR ALL
HEALTH SO WE THINK TO REALLY
MAXIMIZE EFFECTIVE SO THIS MONEY
IS REALLY GET THE MESSAGING
RIGHT -- BECAUSE WE'D HATE
TO DISTRIBUTE GRANTS TO LOCAL
COMMUNITY PROVIDERS AND NOT HAVE
PEOPLE CAN PURSUE THEIR SERVICES
AND IN THOSE AND THAT'S THE
TEMA PERFECTLY FOR THAT THE
COMMUNICORP RATIONS SECTION
OF OF THIS PROPOSAL YOU KNOW
THE COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS
WITHIN THAT GRANT YOU KNOW I'M
THINKING ABOUT COMMITTEE HEALTH
WORKERS FROM A THOUGHT AS THOSE
THAT AND INFRASTRUCTURE READY
IN THE COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS
THAT WOULD ALLOW THEM TO DO
THE OUT REACH THAT COULD THEN
PERHAPS -- NEGATE THE NEED
FOR THE MEDIA THE SOCIAL MEDIA
CAMPAIGN I YES I THINK THAT
BOTH CAN GO HAND IN HAND I
THINK THAT -- THERE YOU KNOW
OUR LOCAL COMMITTEE PROVIDERS
ARE ALWAYS I'M HAPPY TO HELP
US AND GET THE WORD OUT ABOUT
SERVICES BUT WE ALSO KNOW THAT
WHEN WE DO THESE LARGE MEDIA
CAMPAIGNS AND I'M JUST THINKING
ABOUT THE COVER EXPERIENCE I
TYPICALLY FUNDING HELPS -- FOR
-- THEM TO DISTRIBUTE PAMPHLETS
TO RECEIVE -- DIFFERENT SOCIAL
MEDIA CATS WE REALLY THINK
THAT THIS WOULD BE AN EXCELLENT
TO -- TO GETTING THEM GETTING
GETTING THE FUNDING FINDING
OUT -- AND WE DO UNDERSTAND
THAT A LOT OF COMMUNITY BASED
ORGANIZATIONS OF CLEAR PRETTY
CASH STRAPPED SO ASKING
THEM TO DO YET ANOTHER THING
COULD BE COULD BE CHALLENGING
CENTER ANY OTHER QUESTIONS
I GUESS I'M CURIOUS DO YOU --
AS PART OF YOUR -- SCOPE OF
RESPONSIBILITIES DO YOU FIND
IT BEHAVIORAL SERVICES OR
UNIVERSALLY AVAILABLE TO SENIORS
AROUND THE STATE WE DO NOT
NOW AND AND THAT'S REAL ISSUE
SO THAT'S WHY WE THINK THIS
FUNDING WILL REALLY BE NECESSARY
WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE CERTAIN
-- COMMITTEE PROVIDERS OUT
THERE WHO DO PROVIDE SOME LEVEL
OF OLDER ADULTS -- BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH SERVICES WE REALLY WANT
TO ENCOURAGE THOSE -- PROVIDERS
TO EXPAND THEIR SERVICES FURTHER
-- AND AND SO YES I MEAN
THAT'S THAT'S WHY WE THINK THE
PARTNERSHIP SO IMPORTANT AND
GETTING TOGETHER COLLABORATING
WITH THEM DESIGNED THESE
PROGRAMS IT'S IMPORTANT WELL
I COMMEND THE ADMINISTRATION
ON ITS EFFORTS TO TO NOT
ONLY BUILD CAPACITY IN TERMS
OF INFRASTRUCTURE BUT ALSO
CAPACITY IN TERMS OF WORKFORCE
DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE BOARD
AND OF A REAL FIELDS OF PROBABLY
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE ALMOST
ELEVEN YEARS I'VE NOW BEEN HERE
-- THIS IS A A ROBUST EFFORT
-- AND THAT'S AN UNDERSTATEMENT
MORE IS NEEDED AND I THINK
CERTAINLY THE SENIOR GROUPS
AND THOSE OF YOU THAT WORK
WITH THEM NEED TO CONTINUE TO
PUT -- TO EMPHASIZE THE NEED
FOR BOTH INFRASTRUCTURE AND
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH WORKFORCE
BECAUSE THAT SENIORS ARE IN NEED
OF BEHAVIOR HEALTH SERVICES AND
I COUNT MYSELF AS ONE OF THEM
-- OKAY MAYBE NOT THE MENTAL
HEALTH SERVICES YET BUT I KNOW
ELEVEN YEARS HERE WHO KNOWS --
WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT
THEY'RE ABLE TO ACCESS THE
SERVICES THEY NEED TO THANK
YOU FOR WHAT YOU DO APPRECIATE
A LOOK FORWARD TO PROGRESS
ABSOLUTELY THANK YOU SO MUCH
SENATOR -- WILL HOLD ITEM
OPEN NO FURTHER QUESTIONS
THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH
WE'RE MOVING ON TO THE THIRD
ISSUE IN THIRD DEPARTMENT
I WELCOME DEPARTMENT OF
DEVELOPMENTAL SERVICES UP
GOOD MORNING MADAM CHAIR NANCY
BRIDGEMAN DIRECTOR OF THE
DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENTAL
SERVICES -- STARTING WITH ISSUE
THREE -- I'M GONNA GO AHEAD THE
QUESTIONS THAT ARE BEFORE US WE
HAVE THREE QUESTIONS THAT ARE
ON THE AGENDA ON PAGE EIGHT --
ONE IS PROVIDING JUST A BRIEF
OVERVIEW OF -- THE MAJOR CHANGES
IN OUR PROPOSED MAY REVISED
BUDGET -- AND THEN WE HAVE TO
ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS I'M GONNA
GO AHEAD AND START ON QUESTION
ONE AND I'M GOING TO HIGHLIGHT
THREE OF THE ITEMS ON THAT ARE
ON PAGE EIGHT THAT OUR GLASS
BULLETS THAT ARE SUMMARY IN THE
AGENDA NOW I'M GOING TO TURN TO
MY COLLEAGUE -- DEPUTY DIRECTOR
JED KNIGHT TO -- PROVIDE
THE REST OF THE RESPONSES ON
THIS ISSUE -- THE QUESTION
-- THAT IS AN ISSUE ONE THAT
WAS RAISED FOR US TO ADDRESS
HISTORY APPROPRIATIONS AS
PROPOSED SO WE HAVE A REQUEST TO
DO A RE APPROPRIATION OF
APPROXIMATELY -- SEE IF I
CAN GET THAT NUMBER FOR YOU
REALLY QUICK TEN POINT SEVEN
MILLION DOLLARS UNDER COMMUNITY
PLACEMENT PLAN AND COMMUNITY
RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT -- WHAT
WE HAVE EVERY YEARS COMMUNITY
PLACEMENT PLAN DOLLARS OR
COMMUNITY RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT
-- IT TO DO THREE THINGS ONE
IS TO FIND NEW PLACEMENTS ARE
SERVICES FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE
LEAVING -- SETTINGS -- THAT
OUR DEVELOPMENTAL CENTERS OR
OTHER INSTITUTIONAL -- SETTING
TYPES THE OTHER IS TO BE ABLE
TO PROVIDE SOME ASSESSMENTS
AND THEN THE THIRD LEG TO THAT
IS UNDER PURCHASE A SERVICE
TO START UP DOLLARS IN A START
UP DOLLARS ARE REALLY INTENDED
TO BUILD CAPACITY WITHIN THE
COMMUNITY TO SERVE INDIVIDUALS
-- COMMITTEE PLACEMENT PLAN IS
FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE HIGHLY
COMPLEX NEEDS BUT THE COMMUNITY
RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT IS FOR
INDIVIDUALS TO BE ABLE TO BUILD
CAPACITY IN THE COMMUNITY TO
SUPPORT I'M WHAT THOSE NEEDS ARE
I'M BACK IN TWENTY TWENTY ONE WE
-- AS WE WERE ALL FACING CO THAT
THERE'S A LOT OF DELAYS THERE'S
A LOT OF DELAYS IN DEVELOPMENT
WE HAVE APPROXIMATELY TWENTY
SEVEN MILLION FOR START UP
DOLLARS AND IN THAT TWENTY SEVEN
MILLION ABOUT TEN JUST OVER
TEN MILLION DOLLARS WAS NOT
EXPENDED A MOTOR THAT HAS TO
DO WITH DELAYED DEVELOPMENT FOR
RESIDENTIAL HOMES I'M THERE'S A
SUPPLY DEMAND DELAY BE BECAUSE
WE'RE NOT GETTING SUPPLIES
CONSTRUCT CONSTRUCTION SUPPLIES
THERE IS DELAYS IN CONSTRUCTION
WORK -- I THINK THAT WAS
GENERALLY SPEAKING AN ALL
DEVELOPMENT BOTH IN COMMERCIAL
AS WELL AS RESIDENTIAL
SO CONSIDERING THE INPUT THAT
WE'VE HAD OVER THE YEARS FROM
OUR COMMUNITY AND HOUSING
DEVELOPMENT WORK GROUP UNDER
OUR DÍAS TASK FORCE ONE OF
THE LEADING THINGS THAT THEY
HAVE SHARED WITH US THAT IT'S
A PRIORITY AS HOUSING HOUSING
HOUSING -- WE ARE VERY FORTUNATE
THIS YEAR IN THAT FUNDING FOR
TWENTY TO TWENTY THREE THAT
WE WERE ABLE TO APPROVED --
SEVEN PROJECTS FOR MULTI FAMILY
HOUSING AND BUT WE ALSO
HAD A NUMBER OF OTHER HOUSING
PROJECTS THAT WE WERE NOT ABLE
TO FIND -- THAT WAS AVAILABLE
BECAUSE WE HAD OTHER PRIORITIES
THAT REGIONAL CENTERS HAD
LISTED SO -- THE PROPOSAL IS
TO RE APPROPRIATE THESE DOLLARS
TO FUND SIX ADDITIONAL MULTI
FAMILY HOUSING BY DOING SO
WE WOULD BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE
CLOSE TO TWO HUNDRED UNITS
OUT OF THE THIRTEEN DIFFERENT
PROJECTS AND SO THAT'S THE
PROPOSAL THAT WE HAVE BEFORE
YOU ADDITIONALLY JUST REAL
BRIEFLY ON THE REGIONAL CENTER
OPERATIONS POLICY UPDATE
THERE'S -- PRIOR INITIATIVES AND
POLICIES -- AND BUDGET -- ACT
ACTIONS -- FOR ENHANCED SERVICE
COORDINATION THAT'S A REMINDER
IS THAT SO LOW TO NO PURCHASE
A SERVICE -- THOSE INDIVIDUALS
WHO HAVE LOW TO NO PURCHASE A
SERVICE THE CASELOAD RATIOS WERE
REDUCED WE HAD ALSO FUNDED UNDER
THE PERFORMANCE ON INCENTIVES
-- REDUCING CASELOAD RATIOS
-- FOR THOSE THAT ARE OUTLINED
IN STATUTE UNDER MEDICAID
WAIVERS AN EXAMPLE AND THEN
LASTLY WHEN WE CHANGED THE
ELIGIBILITY FOR EARLY START WE
HAD SOME FUNDING FOR SERVICE
COORDINATORS THIS PROPOSAL IS
TO ACTUALLY ADJUST THE SALARY
THAT WE HAD IN THOSE PRIOR
ASSUMPTIONS TO PUT IT TO THE
STATE LEVEL SALARY AS OPPOSED
TO WHAT WE HAD IDENTIFIED --
IN THOSE BUDGET AX AND THEN THE
LAST ITEM WAS ON START TRAINING
THIS IS JUST DOING NO ADDITIONAL
-- TEAMS BUT TO FIND THE
ADMINISTRATIVE PORTION OF THOSE
SERVICES AND -- A DEPUTY
DIRECTOR NIGHT WE'LL GO AHEAD
AND GO THROUGH THE OTHER ITEMS
YES THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR
-- COMMITTEE MEMBERS JIM
KNIGHT DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF THE
DEPARTMENT SOME OF THE SERVICES
SO GOING BACK TO THAT PAGE
SEVEN THERE UNDER ISSUE TO OUR
ITEM NUMBER THREE -- THE FIRST
ISSUE IS NUMBER EIGHTY ONE THERE
AT THE STATE OPERATED FACILITIES
ENHANCE FEDERAL FUNDING ONE
ADDRESS THAT IN CONJUNCTION WITH
A LATER ISSUE NINETY ONE FROM
THE REGIONAL CENTER SIDE REALLY
WHAT THIS SAYS IS THAT THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET ASSUME THAT
THE EXTRA FINANCIAL -- MATCHING
DOLLARS FROM MEDICAID THAT THOSE
WERE GONNA AND IN THE CURRENT
YEAR THERE WOULD BE NONE IN
THE IN THE BUDGET YEAR THE THIS
THESE CHANGES ARE ARE REFLECTING
THAT FOR THE FIRST TWO QUARTERS
OF THE BUDGET YEAR THERE WILL
BE SOME ADDITIONAL FEDERAL
MATCH FOR STATE EXPENDITURES
ALBEIT ALBEIT THAT THEY ARE ARE
DECREASING IN THOSE TWO QUARTERS
-- NEXT IN AND I'LL GET BACK
TO ISSUE EIGHTY SIX WHO CAN DO
THAT IN CONJUNCTION WITH A LATER
ITEM AS WELL -- THE INDEPENDENT
LIVING SERVICES ISSUE NUMBER
EIGHTY SEVEN SO THIS IS AN
ADJUSTMENT TO THE ASSUMPTIONS
IN THE RATE MODELS -- YOU KNOW
YOU'VE HEARD SOME TESTIMONY
ABOUT THAT IT TO BE WORKED IN
CONJUNCTION WITH STAKEHOLDERS
TO TO UPDATE THE ASSUMPTIONS
FOR THAT THE JOB CLASSIFICATIONS
THAT WE USED AS A SALARY MATCH
IN LINE MORE IN LINE WITH WHAT
THE INDEPENDENT LIVING SERVICES
ARE PROVIDING SO THIS IS --
AS IT SAYS IN THE AGENDA --
DEREK AND AND IN OUR OUR
ESTIMATE ASSUMES THAT THAT WOULD
TAKE EFFECT IN JANUARY ASSUMING
THAT THERE BE FEDERAL FUNDING
AND THEN THE ONGOING COST ONCE
AT FULL IMPLEMENTATION BEGINNING
IN TWENTY FOUR TWENTY FIVE
WOULD BE SIXTY MILLION DOLLAR
INCREASE -- PROVISIONAL
ELIGIBILITY FOR CHILDREN WHO
ARE AGES ZERO THROUGH TWO SETS
ISSUE EIGHTY NINE IN THE AGENDA
-- SO RECENTLY WE DID A CHANGE
ELIGIBILITY OR OR IMPLEMENTED
THIS PROVISIONAL ELIGIBILITY
CRITERIA FOR CHILDREN THAT ARE
AGES THREE AND FOUR AND IF YOU
RECALL THAT WAS -- THE THE
NEED THAT WE WERE SEEN THEN WAS
AND AND WE HAVE SEEN OVER THE
YEARS THAT WHEN CHILDREN MOVE
FROM EARLY START WHICH ENDS
EGGMAN WHEN CHILDREN TURN AGE
THREE IT AT TIMES IT'S VERY
DIFFICULT TO MAKE THAT THE
ON GOING DETERMINATION OF THE
DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITY FOR
ON GOING MANAGEMENT SERVICES
SO SOMETIMES WE WOULD SEE A GAP
IN SERVICES PEOPLE WOULD LEAVE
EARLY START NOT RECEIVE REGIONAL
CENTER SERVICES AND COME BACK AT
IT AT AGE FIVE SIX AND BEYOND
SO WE IMPLEMENTED THIS --
PROVISIONAL ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
FOR AGES THREE AND FOUR BUT NOW
WHEN WE APPROACH THE CENTERS
FOR MEDICARE AND MEDICAID
SERVICES TO GET APPROVAL FOR
FEDERAL FUNDING FOR THIS GROUP
THEIR QUESTION WAS WILL WHAT
ABOUT FOR KIDS WHO ARE YOUNGER
THAN THAT WHY WOULD THERE NOT
BE A LESS STRINGENT CRITERIA
FOR THOSE THAT ARE ZERO THREE
TWO IN ADDITION TO THREE AND
FOUR WHICH WOULD MAKE FEDERAL
FUNDING THEN BECAUSE OF THOSE
CONCERNS -- THAT'S A CHALLENGE
FOR US TO THIS PROPOSAL IS TO
EXPAND THAT PROVISIONAL JUBILEE
CRITERIA TO TWO CHILDREN THAT
ARE BURSARY TO ANSWER REALLY
WHAT IT THAN WOULD RESULT IN
A NET SAVINGS AS IT AS IT SAYS
HERE ALLOWING US TO ACCESS
-- FEDERAL FUNDING FOR SERVICES
PROVIDED TO KIDS WHO ARE ALREADY
IN THE EARLY START PROGRAM IT
DOES NOT CHANGE THE NUMBER OF
CHILDREN THAT WE ARE SERVING
IN TOTAL IT WOULD JUST BE THAT
SOME OF THE CHILDREN THAT ARE
ELIGIBLE FOR EARLY START WITH
ALSO MEET THE UP PROVISIONAL
ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA AS WELL
-- NEXT ISSUE THEIR CASELOAD
IN UTILIZATION ADJUSTMENTS FOR
THE MAY REVISION AS IT SAYS IN
HERE THESE ARE SOME RELATIVELY
TYPICAL ADJUSTMENTS THAT WE
DO -- WHEN WE LOOK AT UPDATED
-- EXPENDITURE TRENDS NOW
WHEN WE COME TO MAY AND ALSO
THIS REFERENCED HERE BECAUSE
OF SOME OF THE CHANGES -- IN
THE -- SPENDING PLAN FOR THE
AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT THAT
WOULD DETER SOME TECHNICAL
-- SHIFTS THERE AS WELL
THEN GOING ON TO PAGE EIGHT
OF THE MINIMUM WAGE ADJUSTMENT
AGAIN MRS -- JUST A SLIGHT
ADJUSTMENT AND BASED ON UPDATED
EXPENDITURE TRENDS FOR THE COST
OF THE MINIMUM WAGE ADJUSTMENT
THAT'S SET TO TAKE EFFECT IN
JANUARY OF TWENTY TWENTY FOUR
AND WHEN WE GET TO THE --
HOME AND COMMUNITY SERVICES
ALLOCATION THE ADJUSTMENT AND
A NOSE TOUCHED ON A LITTLE BIT
AND -- THE PREVIOUS PANEL AS
WELL AND -- THE SO
THE THE ADMINISTRATION HAS --
EXPECTING OR OF IT'S GOING TO
EXPAND THE EXPENDITURE PERIOD
FOR A NUMBER OF INITIATIVES THAT
WERE REFLECTED IN THAT PLAN FOR
THE DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENTAL
SERVICES THAT'S ALL THE
INITIATIVES WITH THE EXCEPTION
OF THE -- TECH INFORMATION
TECHNOLOGY PROJECTS -- FOR THE
UPDATE IN THE FISCAL SYSTEM IN
THE CASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM FOR
EXPECTING ALL THOSE EXPENDITURES
TO OCCUR -- AS SCHEDULED
BUT WE HAVE IT THE REQUESTED
THAT ADDITIONAL TIME FOR
EXPENDITURE ON ALL THE OTHERS
SO SOCIAL RECKON CAMP THEIR RATE
-- REFORM COORDINATED FAMILY
SUPPORTS AND THE OTHERS THAT WE
HAD IN THERE -- SO THE
MAIN AND I KNOW THAT THERE'S A
LOT OF QUESTIONS ON THE ON THAT
THE MECHANICS OF THAT MORE HAPPY
TO MEET WITH STAFF AND WORKED
USE THAT THOSE DETAILS ON ON
EXACTLY WHERE THEY WENT BECAUSE
IT IT IS JUST QUITE FRANKLY A
BIT COMPLICATED NOT JUST BECAUSE
OF THE CHANGES BUT THE ALSO THE
ADDITIONAL FEDERAL FUNDING --
THAT WE RECONSIDERED WHEN WE WE
LOOKED AT THESE AS WELL SO BUT
THE IN IN AT A HIGH LEVEL THE
MAIN CHANGES THAT WE WE SEE FOR
THE ONES THAT ARE IMPACTED OR
IT'S UNDER THIS DEPARTMENT WE
DO BECAUSE OF THE -- --
-- THE PACE OF THE SOCIAL
WRECKING CAMP EXPENDITURES
SO WE HAVE LOWERED THE EXPAND
THE ESTIMATE OF THE TOTAL THAT
WOULD BE EXPANDED EVEN WITH
THE THE EXTENSION AS WELL AS
THE TIMING FOR THE COORDINATED
FAMILY SUPPORT AND WE USED
IN IN ADDITION WE INCREASED
THE AMOUNT AND THE PLAN THAT ARE
GOING TO BE THAT THAT WILL BE
FUNDED WITH THE RATE -- MODEL
IMPLEMENTATION AND SO ONE OF
THE REASONS WHY YOU'RE SEEN A
AT THE REQUEST IF YOU WILL
FOR ADDITIONAL -- GENERAL FUND
FOR COORDINATED FAMILY SUPPORT
HAS TO DO WITH MOVING SOME OF
THOSE EXPENDITURES FOR THE RATE
ADJUSTMENT INTO THE CURRENT YEAR
TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE HIGHER
-- FEDERAL MATCH THAT THAT'S
OCCURRING NOW AS OPPOSED TO EVEN
THOUGH THERE'S GOING TO BE AN
INCREASE IN THE IN THE BUDGET
YEAR IT'S NOT AS MUCH AS IT IS
IN THE CURRENT YEAR SO AGAIN
HAPPY TO WALK THROUGH SEPARATELY
ALL THOSE DETAILS WITH YOU ALL
AND AND AND DO RECOGNIZE THAT
THERE IS IT IS IS VERY COMPLEX
I THINK WE ADDRESS THE
QUESTIONS WHAT HAPPENED
ADDRESS -- -- ADDRESSED
ANY OTHERS THAT YOU HAVE
JUST QUICKLY REVIEWING
THE FIRM WOULD TURN TELLY OF
YES MADAM CHAIR AND MEMBERS
MARKETING WITH THE L. A. O. ON
THE RIVER ROUTE SKEWS ME WE'RE
REVIEWING ALL THESE PROPOSALS
AND -- GENTLY NOT RAISING ANY
QUESTIONS OR ISSUES AT THIS TIME
BUT WE WOULD LIKE TO COMMENT
ON TO TO THE ISSUES THOUGH
-- ON THE INDEPENDENT LIVING
SERVICES RATE ISSUE OUR OFFICE
HAS HAS DONE A LOT OF ANALYSIS
ON ON THE RATE REFORM SORT
OF ISSUE AND PRIOR ANALYSES
HAVE FOUND THAT THE THAT THE
ORIGINAL RATE FOR INDEPENDENT
LIVING SERVICES IS SORT OF
INAPPROPRIATE FOR THE SERVICES
INTENDED TO SUPPORT AND THAT'S
WE THINK THAT THIS PROPOSAL THIS
RATE FIX IS CONSISTENT WITH THE
LEGISLATURE'S INTENT FOR FOR
DDS RIGHT PERFORM SO WE WOULD
BE SUPPORTIVE OF THAT IN TERMS
OF THE GENERAL FUND AUGMENTATION
FOR THE COORDINATED FAMILY
SUPPORT SERVICES -- PROPOSAL
-- AS THE CHAIR MENTIONED
THERE'S A VERY VERY HIGH BAR
THIS YEAR FOR A GENERAL FUND
AUGMENTATIONS GIVEN THE STATE'S
FISCAL SITUATION THIS WOULD BE
A CASE WHERE WE WOULD RECOMMEND
-- REJECTION BUT WITHOUT
PREJUDICE FOR THE -- THE MERITS
OF THE THE PROPOSAL BUT GIVEN
THE STATE'S FISCAL SITUATION
REFINEMENTS
-- CHRISTOPHER O'NEILL
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
NOTHING FURTHER AT THIS
TIME THANK YOU SO MUCH --
MY FIRST QUESTION IS YOU KNOW I
I TRIED TO UNDERSTAND THE
COMPLEXITY OF THE DOLLARS AND I
SAW SOME OF THE NUMBERS PULLED
FROM THE SOCIAL WRECKING CAM
AND PULLED FROM THE CORDONING
FROM SUPPORT TO FUND FURTHER
FUND AT THE RATE REFORM --
SO WHY DO YOU ANTICIPATE A
LOWER CASE NUMBER FOR THE
SOCIAL RECKON CAMP COMPONENT
SO WILL -- TALK ABOUT IT MORE
AND AND THE TRAILER BILL SECTION
-- IN IN THE NEXT -- ISSUE
BUT YOU KNOW I THINK WE TALKED
ABOUT IT BEFORE TO THERE HAS
BEEN AS IS WE KIND OF RESTART
THINGS LIKE THAT SO CORRECT
AND CAMP AND EVEN A COORDINATED
FAMILY SUPPORT THERE HAS BEEN
-- THAT THE RAMP UP HAS BEEN
-- SLOWER THAN WE ANTICIPATED
AND PART OF THAT HAS TO DO WITH
-- YEAH IDENTIFYING PROVIDERS
AND AND AND GIVEN THE LACK OF
UNDERSTANDING AT THE REGIONAL
CENTER SO IT'S AVAILABLE
AND WELL WE DIRECTOR DIMANA
YEAH I'LL BE HAPPY TO THANK YOU
MADAM CHAIR I'M IN AS WE HAVE
COME TO HAVE CONVERSATIONS THIS
IS A REALLY IMPORTANT PROPOSAL
FOR THE LEGISLATURE FOR THE
ADMINISTRATION AND CERTAINLY
FOR OUR COMMUNITY IS ALSO
ROCKING CAMP -- PART OF THE
THE RAMPING UP CERTAINLY HAD
TO DO WITH THE FACT THAT WHEN
WE HAD SOCIAL WRECKING CAMP
INTO THE PAST -- PRIOR TO
THE GREAT RECESSION WHEN IT WAS
ELIMINATED THAT IT WASN'T --
EACH CBS COMPLIANCE AT ALL TIMES
AND SO ONE OF THE THE AREAS
THAT REALLY NEED TO BE FOCUSED
ON HOW DO WE DEVELOP THOSE
RESOURCES THAT IS INCLUSIVE
AND TO THE COMMUNITY WE ALSO
DID AS THE CHERRY NOTED THAT
WE HAD SOME REGIONAL CENTERS
THAT HAD ADDITIONAL POLICIES
THAT REALLY CREATED SOME
BARRIERS TO ACCESSING SOCIAL
ROCKING CAMP WITH IT BUT THEN
ADDRESSING THOSE VERY STRONGLY
WITH EACH OTHER REGIONAL CENTRES
MODIFYING NOT HAVING THEM GO
BACK AND RETRAIN THEIR STAFF IS
TO THE ACCESSIBILITY TO SOCIAL
WRECKING CAMP YOU KNOW MAKING
SURE IS ONE EXAMPLE THAT YOU
DON'T REDUCE RESPITE WHEN YOU
AUTHORIZED SOCIAL WRECKING CAMP
AND REALLY YOU KNOW HAVING AN
UNDERSTANDING OF THE BENEFIT
AND THE PURPOSE OF WHAT IT IS --
AS AS NOTED IN -- ISSUE FOR
ONE OF THAT TRAILER BILL ITEMS
THAT WE HAVE PROPOSED AN ISSUE
FOR ITS PARTICIPANT DIRECTED
SOCIAL -- WRECK IN CAMP WE HAVE
FOUND THAT FAMILIES BEING ABLE
TO SELF DIRECT THEIR RESOURCES
REALLY IS A PHENOMENAL WAY TO
BE ABLE TO ADDRESS -- BARRIERS
TO ACCESSING VENDOR TO SERVICES
-- THIS PARTICULARLY AS IS TRUE
WITH AND I'M COMMUNITIES WHO
ARE STRUGGLING TO IDENTIFY OTHER
RESOURCES LASTLY I'LL JUST SAY
WHERE THIS IS A BENEFIT IS THAT
WHEN WE LOOK AT BEING ABLE TO
DO -- RENTAL REIMBURSEMENTS MANY
FAMILIES DON'T HAVE THE UP FRONT
AND DOLLARS TO BE ABLE TO DO
THAT PARENTAL REIMBURSEMENT SO
HAVING A PARTICIPANT DIRECTED
USING APPS THAT MASK THEN WE
WOULD BE ABLE TO NOT PUT THAT
BURDEN ON THE FAMILIES WHO
HAVE MAYBE STRUGGLES SOCIO
ECONOMICALLY SO ADDRESSING
FINING A THEIR STRATEGIES TO
ADDRESS AND AND BEING ABLE TO
SUPPORT THE INITIATIVE THAT WAS
INTENDED AND PRIOR BUDGET AX
THANK YOU SO MUCH -- AND THEN
GOING BACK TO THE COURT IN A
PROMISE SUPPORT SERVICES --
THIS ONE IF YOU CLARIFY FOR
ME THE RESEARCH FUNDING THERE
FROM A CBS AND WE TAKING
EVERYTHING NOW INPUT INTO THE
RATE REFORM ARE WE LEAVING SOME
AND THEN THE REQUEST HERE IS TO
SUPPLEMENT OR IS IT A COMPLETE
WIPE OUT AND THIS IS ALL THAT
WILL BE DEDICATED TO THAT NO
IT'S NOT A COMPLETE WIPE OUT
THERE IS A REDUCTION BASED ON
THE TIMING OF THAT KIND OF THE
REVISED TIMING OF THE ROLLOUT
SO -- THE OF THE AMOUNT TO IT
THAT IS LEFT IN IS THE AMOUNT
THAT WE WOULD EXPECT TO TO
EXPAND UNDER THAT PROGRAM TO THE
EXTENDED TAX MANAGER APPEARED
HOW DIRE WOULD BE BEING YOUR
OPINION WITH THE DEPARTMENT'S
OPINION IN PUTTING BACK THAT
MONEY INTO COORDINATED CARE
CREDIT A FAMILY SUPPORT SERVICES
AND PULLING IT OUT FROM THE
RATE REFORM LET ME REFRESH
SO FUNDING THAT THE ALLOCATED
FUNDING FOR ME TO BE AS FOR THE
CORDED OF FAMILY SERVICES SOME
OF THAT WAS PULLED INTO THE RATE
REFORM RIGHT TO INCREASE THAT
-- AND THEREFORE TEN TWENTY
MILLION IS BEING ASPEN GENERAL
FUND TO SUPPLEMENTS WHAT'S BEING
TAKEN OUT FROM FEDERAL FUNDING
HOW DIRE DO YOU THINK THE
SITUATION WOULD BE IF THAT
MONEY WOULD GO BACK TO
THE COURT IN A FAMILY SERVICES
SO -- CHRIS FOR ANOTHER
PERMANENT FINANCE --
SO WE'RE LOOKING AT CORNELIA
FAMILY SUPPORT SERVICES THE TEN
POINT EIGHT MILLION THAT -- IS
REQUESTED GENERAL FUND IS WHAT
WE'RE ESTIMATING IS THE HALF
YOUR COST OF AN ANNUALIZED COST
FOR THIS PROGRAM AND SO UNDER
THAT USED TO BE A SPENDING
PLAN CORNISH FAMILY SUPPORT
SERVICES -- WE HAD ALWAYS
ANTICIPATED THAT -- THIS
IS A PROGRAM THAT WAS GENERAL
FUND COMMITMENT BEFORE IT WAS
AN H. CBS SPENDING PLANS SO
THIS ABSENT ANY GENERAL FUND
THE FUNDING FOR THIS PROGRAM
IN TWENTY THREE TWENTY FOUR THE
PILOT AND IN MARCH OF TWENTY
THREE TWENTY FOUR SO WHAT WE'RE
WHAT WE'RE DOING ALONG WITH
THE OTHER ADJUSTMENTS AND H.
C. B. S. SPENDING PLAN IT IS
-- IS PROPOSING TO MAKE THAT
PROGRAM HOLE THROUGH THE END
OF THE FISCAL YEAR SO THAT --
AS WE CONTINUE TO ASSESS AND
LOOK AT DATA THAT'S COMING IN ON
UTILIZATION THAT SERVICE -- DIET
-- YOU KNOW THE POTENTIALLY WENT
BE A GAP IN SERVICES NEXT YEAR
IF -- WE HEAR TORNADOES
PERMITS CONTINUE -- FUNDING THE
SERVICE IF THAT HELPS BUT THERE
WOULDN'T BE A GAP RIGHT NOW IF
WE CONTINUE TO LIVE IN THE FUNDS
OF HVS THERE WOULDN'T BE A GAP
UNTIL THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR
RIGHT I MEAN THERE'S A NOTCH
NOT FINDING THE IT SHOULD BE
AS THAT'S WAS DEDICATED TO THIS
TO PUSH IT ALL THE WAY THROUGH
THE SIX MONTH EXTENSION CORRECT
NOW ACTUALLY KETRON PARTNER
FINANCED SO -- FUNDING
THE ISSUE HAS FUNDING FOR
CREDIT FAILING SUPPORT NEVER
TOOK THE PROGRAM TO THE END OF
THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR IT WAS
ONLY FUNDING THROUGH MARCH OF
TWENTY TWENTY FOUR SO I THINK
WHAT WE'VE DONE AND I THINK
MAYBE IN PART TO POINT OUT IS
THAT BUT IN A WAY WE ARE
SUPPLYING SOME OF THE GENERAL
FUND SAVINGS SOME ARE DOLLARS
THAT WE'RE SHIFTING TO --
RAKES ELEVATION OF THE CURRENT
YEAR THAT KIND OF DRIVE SOME
OF THE CAR GENERAL FUND COSTS
BECAUSE -- WE'RE TEAMING
THE JENNA FROM SAVINGS IN THE
CURRENT YEAR BY -- FUNNY REYES
SELLER FULLY FUNDING INMATES
SOLUTION WITH A CBS DOLLARS
BUT -- BECAUSE WE SHIFTED
-- SO LIKE FOR EXAMPLE FOR
COURTNEY FAMILY SUPPORTS THE
FUNDING FOR FOR THAT ONE QUARTER
-- BEYOND DECEMBER --
TWENTY TWENTY THREE RIGHT --
THAT HAS BEEN SHIFTED TO TO
FIND A RAY FROM ACCELERATION
SO AND THAT'S THAT'S BECAUSE
WE WANT TO JUST MAXIMIZE THE
-- AND HAS HER FUND THAT WE CAN
RECEIVE -- IN DOING THAT BUT IN
DOING THAT WE DO NEED A KIND
OF -- MAKE CORNY FAMILY SUPPORT
-- OR YOU KNOW PROVIDE THEM
THAT QUARTER FUNDING THAT WE'VE
SHIFTED AND I THINK OF BECAUSE
-- IT SHOULD BE AS FUNNY
NEVER REALLY CARRIED THAT
PROGRAM TO THE END OF FISCAL
YEAR WE ARE AT A LITTLE BIT
OF GENERAL FUND BUT I THINK
THAT IT'S IMPORTANT NOTE THAT
BETWEEN THE TWO FISCAL YEARS
YOUR SCENES ARE FROM SAVINGS
-- AND THAT'S GOING TO OFFSET
THE GENERAL FUND INCREASE
THAT WE'RE ASKING FOR AND
IN FACT I THINK THERE'S A
NET FOR SENATE GENERAL FUND
SAVINGS -- AFTER THE OFFSET BUT
AGAIN IT'S WITHOUT TRYING
TO GET INTO THE WE'VE GOT A
COUPLE COULD ALLOWS ME THEIR
OKAY SO THE FUNDING IN A
CBS IT'S IN THERE UNTIL
MARCH ONLY FOR THIS
PURPOSE FOR THIS PROGRAM
YES FOR H. CBS YES MAN
YEAH WE HAD IN OUR AND OUR
AGE TO BE A SPENDING PLAN
ONLY COVERED CRUCIAL MARLEY
SUPPORTS TO MARCH YEAH
IN CERTAIN CLARIFY MENTOR
TO WE THEM THE FUNDING FOR
CORNISH FAMILY SPORTS AND
THE AGE TO BE A SPENDING
PLAN CONTEMPLATES SPENDING
THAT MONEY OVER THE COURSE
OF THE SPENDING PLAN TIMELINE
WHICH TRANSCENDED DIFFERENT
FISCAL YEARS AND SO WHAT'S
GOING ON IN SOME OF THE MONEY
IS IS BEING SPENT IN CURRENT
YEAR ON COORDINATED FAMILY
SUPPORT SERVICES AND SO --
THAT'S OR TRYING TO THAT'S WERE
TRYING TO ADDRESS THIS PROPOSAL
AND IS THIS GOING TO BE A NOT WE
DO ANTICIPATE THIS BEING BECAUSE
YOU SAID BEFORE WAS A GENERAL
FUND IT WAS A IT WAS FUNDED
THROUGH GENERAL FUND I'M CERTAIN
TO CLARIFY THIS IS NOT -- SOME
OF THE SOME OF THE DDS PROGRAMS
LIKE RATE EXCELLENT LIQUOR RATE
REFORM IMPLEMENTATION AND --
SOURCE RECKON CAMP FOR GENERAL
FUND COMMITMENTS INITIALLY THAT
WE SWAPPED OUT FOR EACH CBS
CORNISH FAMILY SUPPORT SERVICES
WAS ALWAYS A PILOT THAT WAS
IN H. CBS SPENDING PLAN NEVER
GENERAL FUND COMMITMENT SO AFTER
THIS ALLOCATION OF TEN POINT
EIGHT YOU'D HAVE TO COME BACK TO
EXTEND THE PROGRAM AGAIN CORRECT
AND WE'RE CURRENTLY ASSESSING
THE PROGRAM AS ITS ONGOING OKAY
QUESTIONS OF LOCAL
THANK YOU THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR
THANK YOU -- THANK YOU I DO
APPLIED -- I DO APPLIED WITH
YOU GUYS DID WITH INDEPENDENT
LIVING CENTERS AND MAKING SURE
THAT THEIR RATE INCREASE WAS
BROUGHT FORWARD BECAUSE THEY
WERE EXCLUDED LAST LAST TIME
AND I DON'T AND I APOLOGIZE
FOR BEING LATE AND I I APOLOGIZE
FOR BEING LATE I'M ALSO A
GRANDMOTHER AT PIER AND HAD A
FIFTEEN MONTH OLD LAST NIGHT
-- BUT I DO I I DON'T KNOW
IF YOU COVERED THE EMPLOYMENT
FIRST -- YOU KNOW BACK IN I
THINK TWO THOUSAND AND FOURTEEN
WEST HAS PRO INTRODUCED
A PIECE OF LEGISLATION TO
FUND THE EMPLOYMENT FIRST
PROGRAM FOR THOSE WITH THE
A. P. THAT WANT TO DO -- WORK
AND M. BACK THEN IT WAS LIKE
FOURTEEN PERCENT OF THE PEOPLE
WHO THE DD THAT COMMUNITY WAS
EMPLOYED I WANT TO KNOW IF --
THAT PROGRAM IS STILL BEING
FENDED IF SO HOW MUCH AND
WHAT'S THE PERCENTAGE OF THE
RATE THAT THE PEOPLE ARE BEING
EMPLOYED IN THAT POPULATION
BECAUSE MY UNDERSTAND THAT
WE'VE INVESTED MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS AND IT'S GONE DOWN
THANK YOU CENTER GROVE NANCY
PARCHMAN DIRECTOR DDS -- I
I'M MORE THAN HAPPY TO PROVIDE
SOME ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
EMPLOYMENT VERY IMPORTANT
AND IT'S A PRIORITY FOR
DEVELOPMENTAL SERVICES AND
AND LOOKING AT -- SOME THAN
A INITIATIVES JUST REAL BRIEFLY
SOME OF THE THINGS THAT -- WE
HAD IN THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET
AND PRIOR TO BUDGET ACTS IS
THAT WE INVESTED IN OUR QUALITY
INCENTIVE MEASURES IN EMPLOYMENT
TO BE ABLE TO GET PROVIDERS
-- INCENTIVES TO INCREASE
THE NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS IN
EMPLOYMENT AND THEN ALSO TO
BUILD THE SKILLS DEVELOPMENT
OF THE STAFF THAT ARE WITHIN
THE SERVICE PROVIDERS -- THE
RATE ADJUSTMENTS I DON'T HAVE
ALL THE DETAILS BUT HAPPY
TO PROVIDE THAT TO YOU FOR
THOSE -- INITIATIVES IN THOSE
-- RATE MODELS THAT SUPPORT
-- COMPETITIVE INTEGRATED
EMPLOYMENT THE OTHER THING
WE'VE BEEN DOING IS WORKING ALSO
WITH STATE COUNCIL AND OTHER --
PARTNERS AND HAVING -- OUR WORK
WITH OUR DEPRIVE OUR COLLEAGUE
AT DEPARTMENT OF REHAB A LOT
OF COLLABORATIVE WORK ON GRANTS
WE HAVE TEN MILLION DOLLARS
ANNUALLY AND ON GRANT FUNDING
FOR EMPLOYMENT WE ALSO HAVE --
WORK GROUPS THAT ARE IDENTIFYING
PRIORITIES TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT
-- AND WHILE IT MAY NOT BE PART
OF THE MAY REVISE I WOULD BE
MORE THAN HAPPY TO SCHEDULE SOME
TIME FOR US TO BRIEF YOU ON ON
SOME OF THOSE EFFORTS I I WOULD
REALLY APPRECIATE THAT I LOOKED
AT SOME DATA THAT SHOULD SINCE
THAT THAT POLICY WAS PASSED AND
THAT LEGISLATION WAS PASSED IN
WESTCHESTER WAS SEEN AS SIMPLY
WITH MYSELF AND AND OTHERS THAT
ARE NOW IN THE SENATE AND THEN
NOW YOU JUST MENTIONED OTHER TEN
MILLION DOLLARS OF GRANTS AND IN
WORKING COLLABORATIVE WITH WITH
-- DEPARTMENT OF REHAB WE BOTH
EACH HAVE TEN MILLION DOLLARS
FOR -- IN IMPROVING ACCESS AND
-- FOR COMPETITIVE INTEGRATED
EMPLOYMENT OKAY BECAUSE MY
UNDERSTANDING IS BACK THEN I
THINK WAS IN TWO THOUSAND AND
FOURTEEN IT WAS UP FOURTEEN
PERCENT OF THE POPULATION
WAS EMPLOYED AND WE NEEDED AN
EMPLOYMENT FIRST POLICY AND I
WAS CURIOUS AND SO YOU'RE SAYING
THERE'S NO FUNDING WITHIN THAT
HERE AT THE IN THE MAY REVISE
FOR EMPLOYMENT FIRST WE'D IN
PRIOR BUDGET AXE -- AND MUCH
OF THE OTHER INITIATIVES WE HAVE
PRIORITIZED EMPLOYMENT WE'RE
IN THE PROCESS OF IMPLEMENTING
MANY OF THOSE CHANGES -- AND
SO WE ARE MORE ABLE TO
ADDRESS MANY OF THE OTHER AREAS
IN WHICH WE NEED TO TO CONTINUE
TO FOCUS ON INITIATIVES DOESN'T
MEAN THAT IT WERE NOT COMMITTED
TO IT ARE VERY COMMITTED TO
IT EMPLOYMENT IS EVEN SAID
TO FEEL MY STAFF -- THIS LAST
WEEK I SAID THIS YEAR IS ALL
ABOUT EMPLOYMENT SO -- WE
WE DEFINITELY HAVE A LASER FOCUS
ON EMPLOYMENT GOOD AND TO FOLLOW
UP AND -- THAT CHAIRS QUESTION
-- I I DIDN'T FOLLOW AND I
APOLOGIZE -- TOOK HER SECOND
GO AROUND TO GET IT THOUGH AND
DID THE TEN POINT EIGHT MILLION
DOLLAR THE MONEY THAT YOU'RE
GETTING THAT SENDS THE --
AT THE PARENTS -- SUPPORT
REIMBURSEMENT SERVICES RIGHT
NOW IT'S COMING FROM THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT CORRECT OR NOT THE
COORDINATED FAMILY SUPPORT --
IS THROUGH THE AMERICAN RESCUE
PLAN DOLLARS -- IT'S A PILOT
IT'S A BRAND NEW -- SERVICE
MODEL THAT -- IN RESPONSE
TO OUR COMMUNITY REALLY --
ASKING FOR WHAT IS LAKE SUPPORTS
FOR FAMILIES THAT ARE LIVING
AN ADULT WHO IS LIVING AT HOME
WITH THEIR FAMILIES AND MULTI
GENERATIONAL FAMILIES TYPICALLY
-- SIMILAR TO SOMEBODY WHO'S
LEVINE -- SO SERVICE ACCESS
AND EQUITY AND MAKING SURE THAT
WE'RE ADDRESSING MANY OF THESE
ISSUES HAS BEEN A PRIORITY AND
FAMILIES WHO HAVE THEIR ADULT
FAMILY MEMBER LIVING AT HOME
HAVE UNLESS ACCESS TO CERTAIN
SERVICES AND SUPPORTS THIS --
PILOT PROGRAM IS REALLY GIVING
US AN OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE A
LOOK AT A SUPPORTED LIVING
LIGHT A MODEL THAT SUPPORTS
THE FAMILIES IT'S A VERY
WHOLE PERSON APPROACH REALLY
LOOKING AT THE INDIVIDUAL AND
SUPPORTS BUT ALSO CONNECTING
TO OFTENTIMES YOU HAVE AGING
PARENTS AN AGING FAMILY MEMBERS
ARE ALSO NEEDING SUPPORT SO
MAKING SURE THAT THE LOCAL AREA
ON AGING THAT THERE'S THOSE
CONNECTIONS AND THAT WE'RE ABLE
TO SUPPORT THE WHOLE FAMILY
AND PERSON THROUGH THIS MODEL
SO IS THAT THAT PROGRAM HE
SAID WAS DUE TO END IN MARCH
OF TWENTY WHAT SO THE FUNDING
SO WE HAD FUNDED IT THROUGH --
THE AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN AND
ARE ON THE REVISED PROPOSAL --
BECAUSE WE DO WANT TO MAXIMIZE
THE OPPORTUNITY WITH -- EIGHT
THE OTHER INITIATIVE AT THE RATE
ADJUSTMENTS TO BE ABLE TO GET
THE FEDERAL MATCH WHICH IS A
SIGNIFICANT MATCH BUT WE ALSO
WANT TO MAKE THE OUR PROPOSAL
IS TO CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO
HAVE THE FUNDING SO WE CAN HAVE
ANOTHER FULL TWELVE MONTHS OF
THE PILOT SO WE CAN SEE IF IT'S
A MEETING ON THE EXPECTATION
THAT WE HAD INTENDED TO BE ABLE
TO SUPPORT THOSE -- INDIVIDUALS
AND FAMILY MEMBERS DO YOU HAVE
ANY METRICS IN PLACE NOW TO
SEE IF IF THERE'S EXPECTATIONS
OR AT THE LEAST THEY'RE ON
TRACK FOR THE EXPECTATIONS
THAT WE YOU KNOW THAT WE WANT
TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY ACHIEVE
BECAUSE I GET IT I MEAN YOU
KNOW I HAVE A FRIEND THAT
HAS A TWENTY FOUR YEAR OLD --
SOMEWHAT MID LEVEL HIGH
FUNCTIONING YOU KNOW -- ED
DOWN SYNDROME YOUNG MAN AND
AND YOU KNOW I'VE KNOWN HER FOR
YEARS BUT YOU KNOW ONE OF THE
THINGS YOU KNOW WE'RE BOTH OF
YOU KNOW HITTING SIXTY AND SHE'S
LIKE YOU KNOW WHAT I'M GONNA
DO AND IF YOU KNOW THERE'S NOT
SOME OF YOUR FOR GARRETT SO I
THINK IT'S IMPORTANT AND SHE
JUST ONE FAMILY AT A THOUSANDS
OF FAMILIES THAT WE HAVE IN
THE STATE I JUST HAPPEN OR
PERSONALLY SO -- IS THERE ANY
METRICS IN PLACE TO BE ABLE
TO SEE IF THESE PROGRAMS ARE
WORKING AND ARE WE ALLOWED
TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS TO THESE
PROGRAMS IF THEY'RE NOT WORKING
AND WHERE WE GET THE DATA FROM
IS IT FROM THE PARENTS THE
PEOPLE ON THE GROUND ACTUALLY
USING THE SERVICES OR SOMEBODY
FROM SOME OFFICE SOMEPLACE THAT
DOESN'T WORK WITH THE COMMUNITY
GREAT QUESTION -- ONE OF THE
BENEFITS OF DOING THIS PILOT
IS ALSO TAKING THAT THE INPUT
THAT WE'VE HEARD FROM THE
COMMUNITY ABOUT WANTING TO HAVE
THINGS STANDARDIZED SO WE'VE
STANDARDIZED ALL THE VENDORS
ASIAN FOR THIS PARTICULAR
PILOT WE'VE ALSO -- ARE FRONT
LOADING LIKE WHATEVER THE
OUTCOME MEASURES AND IT WAS DONE
THROUGH A VERY ENGAGING WITH
OUR COMMUNITY WITH THOSE WITH
LIVED EXPERIENCES AND FAMILY
MEMBERS A LOT OF FOCUS GROUPS
TO SAY WHAT IS IT THAT WE CAN
MEASURE TO REALLY SEE IS THE
IMPACT REALLY -- OCCURRING --
THE AT THE EXAMPLE THAT YOU'RE
GIVING US A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF
SPAIN AS THEIR CONNECTIONS THAT
ARE BEING MADE ON TO OTHERS
BECAUSE THERE'S THE THAT LIFE
PLANNING THAT IS A SENSITIVE
TOPIC BUT MAKING SURE THAT
THERE'S SUPPORT TO BE ABLE TO
HAVE THOSE -- CONVERSATIONS THAT
ARE REALLY IMPORTANT TO GET THAT
WILL GIVE FAMILY MEMBERS PIECE
AS WELL OKAY THANK YOU THANK
YOU VERY MUCH FOR THAT THINKING
MANAGER FOR THE LEEWAY I'M
GIVE ME SOME TIME TO THINK
OF ANOTHER QUESTION THANK
YOU -- I'M WONDERING BECAUSE
YOU YOU I THINK THIS IS LIKE
THE SECOND OR THIRD TIME TO
MAXIMIZE -- THE OPPORTUNITY
WITH THE RATE REFORM RIGHT
TO PUT DOWN I'M WONDERING WHY
WITH THAT MENTALITY WE'RE ONLY
EXTENDING IT SIX MONTHS VERSUS
THE FULL YEAR WERE ALLOWED TO
I THINK IN THIS SPECIFIC
INSTANCE BURKE SO THERE --
THEN HANDS AFTER THAT ENHANCE
FEDERAL FUNDING THAT'S AVAILABLE
TO THAT THE FEDERAL PUBLIC
HEALTH EMERGENCY IS IN A PHASE
DOWN CURRENTLY AND SO --
I THINK I THINK RIGHT NOW IT'S
ONE FIVE FIVE PERCENT BUT IT'S
GONNA IT'S GONNA IT'S GONNA
PHASE DOWN THROUGH DECEMBER
AND SO RIGHT NOW IT'S HIGHER
DRAWDOWN IF WE USE RESOURCES
-- IN THIS QUARTER FOR -- FOR
RATE ACCELERATION VERSUS --
IF THOSE DOLLARS REVIEWS LATER
IN THE FALL WHERE TO LOOK AT
LOWER ENHANCE FEDERAL FUNDING
OR UNITS -- -- CALENDAR TWENTY
TWENTY FOUR WHERE THE -- THAT
THAT ENHANCE OUR FINDINGS
BEEN -- TO PHASE OUT ENTIRELY
THANK YOU KNOW THE QUESTIONS
ON THIS WE CAN HOLD A DYNAMO
OPEN TO MOVE ON TO ISSUE NUMBER
FOR QUICK THANK THANK
YOU MADAM CHAIR I'M GONNA GO
AHEAD AND -- JUST PROVIDE WE'RE
GONNA KIND OF GO A LITTLE BIT
OUT OF ORDER ON THE QUESTIONS IF
THAT'S OKAY WITH THE CHAIR -- I
AM I WILL GO AHEAD AND TOUCH ON
QUESTION TWO FOUR AND FIVE
THAT'S ON PAGE ELEVEN OF THE
AGENDA -- WITH THE THE FIRST
ITEM -- THE QUESTIONS ASKING FOR
THE -- RATIONALE EXTENDING THE
REMOTE OPTION FOR I. P. P. AND
I AT THIS PIECE THROUGH DECEMBER
THIRTY FIRST AND THEN HOW WE
WOULD -- DETERMINE ADDITIONAL
EXTENSION -- FOR FLEXIBILITY IN
IN THE FUTURE AND THEN ARE WE
-- ENGAGING OUR COMMUNITY AND
WE HAVE -- WE CONTINUE TO ENGAGE
WITH OUR COMMUNITY REGARDING
AND MANY OF THE FLEXIBILITIES
THAT WERE IMPLEMENTED DURING
THE PANDEMIC ONE OF THE AREAS
WITHIN THE PANDEMIC IS THAT
WE HAD OPPORTUNITIES TO DO
AMENDMENTS TO THE WAIVER SO
IT'S CALLED THE APPENDIX K. THAT
ALLOWED US TO BE ABLE TO DRAW
A FIFTY TWO THOSE FLEXIBILITIES
IN ADDITION TO THE REMOTE --
MEETINGS UNDER FOR I. P. P.
WHICH IS THE INDIVIDUAL PROGRAM
PLANNED THAT'S DONE -- TYPICALLY
ANNUALLY AND THEN THE INDIVIDUAL
FAMILY SERVICE IS PLANNED WE
ALSO HAD FLEXIBILITIES FOR
REMOTE SERVICES FOR DAY PROGRAM
FOR TRANSPORTATION -- SOME
OTHER ITEMS SUCH AS BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH AND ALL OF THOSE ARE IN
THE UEBER ART AND DEAN AT THE
END OF NOVEMBER AND SO WERE
WE WE THOUGHT NOVEMBER WAS KIND
OF AN UNUSUAL TIME TO KIND OF
DO A ENDING I'M LOOKING FOR A
KIND A CLEAR DATE OF DECEMBER
THIRTY FIRST WAS THE DATE OF AND
IN ALL OF THOSE FLEXIBILITIES
GIVING THE REGIONAL CENTERS
AND THEIR FAMILIES TIME TO BE
ABLE TO MOVE FORWARD WE HAD
ADDRESSED MANY OF THE OTHER
REMOTE ISSUES -- IN PRIOR --
I INITIATIVE AND TAKING A LOOK
AT HOW WE COULD EXPAND TAYLOR
DAY SERVICES AND FLEXIBILITIES
SO RECOGNIZING JUST MAKING THESE
CHANGES WITHOUT HAVING OTHER
FLEXIBILITIES WAS IMPORTANT
-- IT CERTAINLY TALKING TO
OUR STAKEHOLDERS TO ONE OF THE
CONCERNS THAT FAMILIES HAVE
SHARED IN THIS AREA IS THAT
THEY WANT TO BE ABLE TO HAVE
SOME REMOTE SERVICES MANY OF
THEM DO BECAUSE THEY WANT TO
BE ABLE TO HAVE THEIR SUPPORT
SYSTEMS ADVOCATES AND OTHERS
TO BE AVAILABLE YOU KNOW
CERTAINLY DON'T WANT TO NOT
HAVE THAT AVAILABLE AND WE CAN
ALWAYS STILL HAVE REMOTE ACCESS
FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT IN THE
GEOGRAPHIC AREA BUT AS A SOCIAL
WORKER I THINK I SHOULD THIS
BEFORE I JUST REALLY FIND THE
VALUE OF IN PERSON AND MAKING
SURE THAT -- INDIVIDUALS AND
FAMILIES WERE TRYING TO BUILD
A RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FAMILIES
AND THE REGIONAL CENTERS AND
HAVING TO -- REGIONAL CENTER
STAFF THAT GO OUT TO THE FAMILY
HOMES HAVE THAT TIME WITH THEM
PROVIDE THEM THAT SUPPORT IS
OF GREAT VALUE BUT ALSO SEEING
HOW WE CAN MAKE SURE THAT IF A
FAMILY WANTS TO HAVE SOMEBODY
PRESENT AT THEY CAN'T BE THERE
HAVING REMOTE ACCESS WOULD
CERTAINLY BE AN OPTION THAT
WE WOULD WELCOME AND SUPPORT
AND AND WORK WITH THE REGIONAL
CENTERS TO ASSURE THAT THAT
WOULD BE AVAILABLE THE NEXT
ITEM IS THE QUESTION WAS ON
-- ON ITEM FOUR IS THAT WHAT
ARE OUR GOALS FOR STANDARDIZING
STATEWIDE PROCEDURES -- THERE'S
A NUMBER OF QUESTIONS THAT
ARE -- INCLUDED IN HERE AND
ALL REALLY AND TRY TO TOUCH
ON EACH OF THOSE FOR YOU --
SO WHEN WE TAKE A LOOK AT KIND
OF THE GOAL FOR STANDARDIZING
THEIR SEVERAL THINGS ONE IS
REALLY THE EQUITY LINES -- WE
HAVE HEARD FROM OUR COMMUNITY
THE CHALLENGES WHEN YOU GO
FROM ONE REGIONAL CENTER TO
THE NEXT WHETHER YOU'RE GOING
THROUGH INTAKE OR IF YOU'RE
GOING ON TO REACH TRYING TO
ACCESS SERVICES BUT ALSO BY
SERVICE PROVIDERS GOING THROUGH
VENDORS STATION THAT -- THERE'S
DIFFERENT -- PROCEDURES AND
SOMETIMES POLICIES AND HOW --
IMPLEMENTATION IS OCCURRING
SO THE STANDARDIZATION AND AND
LOOKING AT KIND OF KEY THINGS
RIGHT NOW I'M MAKING SURE THAT
WE'RE STANDARDIZING IT REALLY
IS THAT IS TOUCHING THAT GOAL
TO BE ABLE TO IMPROVE THE
EXPERIENCE OF EACH INDIVIDUAL NO
MATTER WHAT REGIONAL CENTER IN
THE STATE THAT THEY'RE WORKING
WITH THE OTHER IS OVERSIGHT
IT ALLOWS US TO BE ABLE TO
PROVIDE MORE CONSISTENCY IN OUR
OVERSIGHT BECAUSE WE'RE GOING
TO HAVE CONSISTENT DATA WE'RE
GOING TO BE ABLE TO REALLY KNOW
THAT FOR EXAMPLE IN THE INTAKE
AND ASSESSMENT THAT IF WE HAVE
A STANDARDIZED PROCEDURE AND
APPROACH YOU KNOW THE FORMS ARE
THE SAME FOR FAMILIES RIGHT NOW
THE EXPERIENCE FOR FAMILIES THAT
ARE GOING ON A WEBSITE MAY BE
DIFFERENT YOU KNOW THAN ANOTHER
-- REGIONAL CENTER SO WE'D BE
ABLE TO STANDARDIZE THAT AND
THEN WE'LL BE ABLE TO HAVE THE
DATA WILL BE ABLE TO TELL FROM
THE POINT THAT FAMILY CONTACT
THE REGIONAL CENTER TO THE
POINT THAT THEY ACTUALLY HAVE AN
ASSESSMENT -- ELIGIBILITY THAT
WE WOULD HAVE THAT INFORMATION
THE OTHER THAN LOOKING AT --
VENDORS STATION SAME THING WHEN
WE TAKE A LOOK AT VENDORS ASIAN
STANDARDIZING IT TO MAKE SURE
THAT AS WE'RE TRYING TO BUILD
OUR PROVIDER NETWORK -- WE ARE
REALLY TRYING TO DO THAT I ALSO
WANT TO EXPAND OUR PROVIDER
NETWORK THAT'S REFLECTIVE OUR
OF OUR COMMUNITY SO BY BEING
ABLE TO STANDARDIZE PRACTICES OF
VENDORS STATION AND MAKING SURE
THAT THE TRAININGS AVAILABLE
FOR SERVICE PROVIDERS AND DOING
OUTREACH TO SERVICE PROVIDERS
SO THAT THEY CAN UNDERSTAND
THE PROCESS SO WE CAN BUILD OUR
PROVIDER NETWORK IS WELL AND
THEN LASTLY COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
WE HAVE OFTEN HEARD FROM OUR
COMMUNITY THAT -- WHO'S GETTING
INFORMATION AND HOW ARE WE
GETTING INFORMATION IF THERE'S
A NEW DIRECTOR OF THE NEW POLICY
WHAT IS THE INFORMATION THAT'S
BEING RECEIVED AND THEN HOW
IS THAT BEING RECEIVED OUT TO
THE COMMUNITY BUT ALSO THEN
THE REGIONAL CENTERS HEARING
FROM THE COMMUNITY -- ANY
OF THE ISSUES AND CHALLENGES
THAT THEY MAY BE FACING AN
RECEIVING THOSE NEW SERVICES
SUCH AS SOCIAL ROCK SO THE IT
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT PLAN IS
TO HAVE THE REGIONAL CENTER
SUBMIT TO THE DEPARTMENT ON AN
ANNUAL BASIS A PLAN THAT WOULD
BE REVIEWED AND APPROVED TO
MAKE SURE THAT IT'S A REALLY
ENGAGING PLAN -- SO AGAIN WE
CAN HAVE SOME CONSISTENCY --
CERTAINLY DDS IS GOING TO BE
DOING MORE -- WEBINARS AND
STUFF BUT WE STILL REALLY WANT
TO VALUE THE BENEFIT OF THE
LOCAL COMMUNITY AND BEING
ABLE TO -- MAKE SURE THAT
REGIONAL CENTERS ARE ARE ALSO
DOING THEIR OUT REACH -- THEN
THE QUESTION IS IS IT MANDATORY
YES IT WOULD BE REQUIRED THAT
THE STANDARD OF STATIONS WOULD
BE MANDATORY AND THEN YES WE
WILL CONTINUE OUR WORK WITH OUR
STAKEHOLDERS -- TO BE ABLE TO
RECEIVE AND PUT I'M CERTAINLY
WOULD SEE OPPORTUNITIES FOR
THEM TO GIVE INPUT ON THE
STRUCTURE OF IT BUT ALSO TO
RESPOND TO -- KIND OF THE THE
THE STANDARDS THAT WOULD BE THAT
AND THEN LASTLY -- JUST AGAIN
HIGHLIGHTING THE IMPORTANCE
OF MAXIMIZING THE EQUITY AND
HOW IS THAT GOING TO REDUCE
DISPARITIES AND WE DO SEE THAT
-- STANDARDIZATION IS REALLY
GOING TO HELP WE ALSO SEE THAT
THAT ADDITIONAL OVERSIGHT BUT
THE QUALITY OF DATA IS IS GOING
TO BE INFORMATIVE -- BUT AS I
SAID AND NOTED THAT I REALLY
DO BELIEVE THAT EXPANDED OUR
PROVIDER NETWORK THAT REPRESENTS
OUR COMMUNITY IS IT'S GOING
TO HELP GIVE EXPERIENCES OF
INDIVIDUALS OF THOSE INDIVIDUALS
-- AND THEIR PREFERENCES THE
LAST ITEM IS ON -- QUESTION
NUMBER FIVE REGARDING THE
DEPARTMENT'S TRAILER PROPOSED
TRAILER BILL LANGUAGE FOR
COMPLEX NEEDS RESIDENTIAL
PROGRAM ON THIS PROGRAM -- ARE
TRAILER BILL IS IS -- SOON TO
BE RELEASED AND THE QUESTION
HERE IS KIND OF WHAT IS THE
THE INFORMATION THAT WOULD BE
INCLUDED IN IT -- WE ALREADY
HAVE OUR Q. CRISIS SERVICE
STAR WHICH IS IN STATUTE WE
DO HAVE THE -- PARAMETERS THAT
ARE OUTLINED IN IT LARGELY WE
MODELED THAT SO WE TOOK -- A LOT
OF THE PROTECTIONS IN THE LOT OF
THE REQUIREMENTS UNDER STAR SO
I'M JUST GONNA HIGHLIGHT MAYBE
SOME OF THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN
WHAT WAS IN -- STATUTE FOR
START TO OUR COMPLEX NEEDS ONE
IS DEFINING THE COMPLEX NEEDS
FOR ELIGIBILITY SO IT BE DUALLY
DIAGNOSED TO BE FOR INDIVIDUALS
WITH IDT AND CO OCCURRING
MENTAL HEALTH DIAGNOSIS
ON THE DIFFERENCE WOULD BE
GOING FROM A THIRTEEN MONTH CAP
SO RIGHT NOW STARS FOR TWELVE
MONTHS WITH ONE OPPORTUNITY FOR
A THIRTEENTH MONTH AND THEN THE
INDIVIDUAL HAS TO TRY IN SESSION
TO AN ALTERNATIVE SERVICE
OPTION -- WRECKING WE'RE SEEING
THAT MORE AND MORE INDIVIDUALS
ARE ARE REALLY PUSHING THAT
LAST DAY AND NOT HAVING THE
BEST TRANSITION PLAN THAT IS
REALLY IMPORTANT BECAUSE OF THE
COMPLEXITIES SO WE'RE PROPOSING
EIGHTEEN MONTHS ON THIS MODEL
BUT IT'S AN INCREMENTAL OF SIX
MONTHS WE WOULD STILL HAVE TO GO
AND -- AND DO ON CERTAIN
ACTIONS BEFORE WE WOULD BE
ABLE TO EXTEND IT AND HAVE TO
BE APPROVED BY THE DEPARTMENT
DIRECTOR IT ALSO HAS ADDITIONAL
PROTECTIONS AS FAR AS NOTIFYING
THE OFFICE OF CLIENT RIGHTS
TO DRC SO THE SAME PROTECTIONS
THAT ARE UNDER STAR WOULD STILL
BE UNDER ON THE COMPLEX NEEDS
LASTLY IT ALSO -- PROVIDES
-- ADDITIONAL SUPPORT THROUGH
STABILIZATION AND BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH TREATMENT -- SO THOSE
ARE THE THINGS THAT WE'RE WE'RE
LOOKING TO BE ABLE TO HAVE
INCLUDING THE TRAILER BILL
-- AND SO ALL -- HEADED
OVER TO -- DEPUTY DIRECTOR NINE
THANK YOU AND I'LL GO THROUGH
THE REST OF THE TRAILER BILL
AND -- THE OTHER QUESTIONS SO
GOING BACK TOP OF PAGE TEN AND
-- -- PROPOSED TRAILER BILL
FOR DISSIPATION FOR BEHAVIOR
INTERVENTION SERVICES CURRENTLY
STATUTE REQUIRES -- PARENTS
PARTICIPATE AND BEHAVIOR
INTERVENTION -- SERVICES THIS
PROPOSAL WOULD -- TAKE THAT
REQUIREMENT TO AN ENCOURAGEMENT
OF PRINT PARTICIPATION RATHER
THAN A REQUIREMENT AND THAT
IS IN LINE WITH -- HOW'S
THE MEDIC HOW -- OPERATES
IN THEIR REQUIREMENTS FOR THE
RECEIPT OF THE SERVICES AS WELL
-- NEXT THE RATE STUDY UPDATE
FOR FAMILY HOME AGENCIES WE HAVE
HISTORICALLY -- SENT THAT THE
MAXIMUM RATE FOR -- FAMILY HOME
AGENCIES TO BE IN LINE WITH THE
COST OF OF SERVICES PROVIDED IN
THE COMMUNITY CARE FACILITY THIS
CHANGE WOULD BE IN LINE WITH
WHAT WE'VE DONE RECENTLY WHEN
WE RE ESTABLISH RATES FOR
SMALLER SO WE HAS IT SAYS HERE
FOUR OR LAST INDIVIDUALS AND
RESIDENTIAL FACILITIES AND
THEN THE RATE STUDY ALSO HAS --
RATES FOR SMALLER HOMES SO WE'RE
JUST BRINGING THIS THIS CHANGE
WOULD BE IN LINE WITH SETTING
THAT MAXIMUM AMOUNT IN LINE
WITH THE SMALLER RESIDENTIAL
FACILITIES INSTEAD OF THE
LARGER WHICH IT'S SMALLER BUT
THE PER PERSON COST IS HIGHER
BECAUSE THERE ARE LESS PEOPLE
-- THE NEXT IS THE EXTENDED
SUSPENSION OF THE FAMILY BECAUSE
PARTICIPATION IN THE ANNUAL
FAMILY PROGRAM FOR YOU KNOW THAT
THERE'S SOME QUESTIONS ON THE
AGENDA ABOUT THIS AS WELL SO --
AND A AND A AS IT SAYS WE ARE
THE TRAILER BILL WOULD EXTEND
THAT SUSPENSION SO -- WE WOULD
NOT DO ANY ASSESSMENTS FOR THESE
-- FEE PROGRAMS OR THE COST
PARTICIPATION PROGRAMS THROUGH
THE END OF THE CALENDAR YEAR
AND IN ADDITION WOULD I REQUEST
DIRECTIVE AUTHORITY -- AND
THAT WOULD BE TO IMPLEMENT --
RECOMMENDATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN
INFORMED BY -- SET AN EXTENSIVE
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS THAT WE'VE
GONE THROUGH WORKING WITH PEOPLE
RECEIVE SERVICES FAMILIES --
REGIONAL CENTERS AND OTHERS
ARE ON THEIR RECOMMENDED
CHANGES -- POTENTIALLY FOR --
IF TO TO RESTART THESE PROGRAMS
-- THERE IN IN REAL SEE WHEN
THAT WHEN THAT PLAN COMES OUT WE
ARE OR WORKING THROUGH THAT --
SOME OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR
STREAMLINING AND -- ALSO
-- POTENTIAL -- SUGGESTIONS
HAVE COME UP WHETHER THAT'LL
BE PART OF WHAT WE WE --
DO AS PART OF A PLAN OR NOT NOT
SURE BUT TRYING TO IDENTIFY WHAT
IS THE USE FOR THE FUNDS THAT
ARE COLLECTED TO THE FEE PROGRAM
-- ONE OF THE QUESTIONS IN THE
AGENDA WAS WHAT IS THAT KIND OF
THE REVENUE -- THAT WE GENERATE
-- WITH THAT WHEN THE FOR
THE THE ANNUAL PROGRAM ANNUAL
PROGRAMS HE WAS FAMILY PROGRAM
HE WAS SUSPENDED IT WAS ROUGHLY
A MILLION DOLLARS PER YEAR IT
VARIED FROM YEAR TO YEAR -- BUT
IT'S UP ROUGHLY OF A MILLION
DOLLARS WAS COLLECTED THE FAMILY
COST PARTICIPATION JUST --
IT'S NOT A FEE IT REALLY IS
-- THAT WAS WHERE THE --
DEPENDING ON THE INCOME LEVEL
OF THE FAMILY THAT THE FAMILY
WOULD BE REQUIRED TO PURCHASE
A PORTION OF SOME SERVICES
-- IN IN PARTICULAR RESPITE
SO THAT WAS NOT A D. THAT
WE WERE COLLECTING IT WAS --
AGAIN THAT WOULD RESULT IN
EXPENDITURES THAT DID NOT OCCUR
FOR THE REGIONAL CENTER SENSE
THAT THE SUSPENSION HAS BEEN
IN PLACE THOSE EXPENDITURES
WHICH WOULD LARGELY BE AND
THE TRENDS OF THE EXPENDITURES
THAT WE'RE SEEING NOW
-- NEXT IS CLEAN UP ON THE
FINAL RULED A COMIC YOU MAKE
SETTINGS FINAL ROLE WE DO
CURRENTLY HAVE AUTHORITY TO
-- -- DRESS IN ADVANCE OF
REGULATIONS ANY CHANGES THAT
NEED TO BE MADE TO TO MEET THOSE
FEDERAL REQUIREMENTS THAT WE
TALKED A LOT ABOUT HERE BUT ALSO
WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT YOU IS THAT
THAT PERSON CENTERED SERVICE
PLANNING IS REALLY AT THE CORE
AT THE HEART OF MEETING THESE
REQUIREMENTS AND THEN THIS CLEAN
UP WOULD POINT TO THE SECTION
THE FEDERAL RULES THAT THAT
AND DEAL WITH PERSON CENTERED
SERVICE PLAN AS WELL AND GIVE US
DIRECTOR THAT'S ALREADY TO IT TO
-- ME DOES THIS -- IN ADDITION
EXPANDING PARTICIPANT DIRECTED
SERVICES FOR SOCIAL RECREATION
CAMP WE TOUCHED ON THIS A LITTLE
BIT IN AND SO I DON'T WANT TO
REPEAT EVERYTHING THAT DIRECTOR
PARCHMENT SAID BUT ONE OF THE
OTHER BENEFITS OF THIS IS THAT
WE TALKED ABOUT THERE'S JUST
DIFFERENT TYPES OF PROVIDERS
THAT PEOPLE WANT TO RECEIVE
THESE SERVICES FROM THE SIX
CITIES AND COUNTIES AND THOSE
TYPES OF THINGS THAT THAT TIMES
ARE VERY RESISTANT TO GOING TO
THE VENDOR IS A SHAM PROCESS
WITH THE REGIONAL CENTER SO
THAT THIS WOULD ALSO ALLOW FOR
-- MORE ACCESS TO TO
-- DIFFERENT TYPES OF PROVIDERS
WHO ARE NOT YOUR TYPICAL
REGIONAL CENTER PROVIDERS
GOING BACK TO THE SPIRIT
REALLY OF SOCIAL RECREATION
CAMP TO BE MORE INTEGRATED
WITH WITH OTHER SERVICES
THE FEDERAL EDUCATION GRANT
FUNDING DISTRIBUTION CURRENTLY
-- THAT THE FEDERAL GRANT FOR
-- EDUCATION SERVICES COMES
THROUGH OUR DEPARTMENT EVEN
KNOWS THAT THAT SOME OF THOSE
FUNDS AND ALL TOO MANY ARE
USED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF
STATE HOSPITALS THIS KIND OF
SPLIT THAT UP NOW SO THAT WE
CAN MORE ACCURATELY REFLECTING
KIND OF HOW THEY'RE USED
AND THEN ACCESS TO GENERIC
SERVICES KNOWN AS ANOTHER
QUESTION IN THERE SO THIS
WEEK WE MADE A SIMILAR CHANGE
A COUPLE YEARS AGO -- FOR
THE EARLY START PROGRAM BUT
THIS IS TO CLARIFY --
FOR REGIONAL CENTERS THAT THEY
THEY THEY MUST PAY FOR SERVICES
MEDICAL AND DENTAL SERVICES
IF THERE IS A DELAY IN GETTING
THOSE SERVICES AND THAT WOULD
INCLUDE DURING TIMES WHEN
THERE IS A AN APPEAL -- FOR
THOSE SERVICES WHETHER THAT BE
TO MEDICARE OR PRIVATE INSURANCE
SOME HAPPY TO TAKE QUESTIONS
ON ANY OF THESE TWENTY YEAR
OF CHILE HOPEFULLY OFFERS AND
I'M SURE MEMBERS MARKET NOW
THEY -- -- WE'RE REVIEWING
THE LANGUAGE NO CONCERNS
RAISED AT THIS TIME ANY
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS -- CHRIS
FOR ANOTHER PERMANENT PLANTS
NOTHING FURTHER AT THANK YOU
SO MUCH I'M THE DIRECTOR FOR
SOMEONE -- YOU KNOW THANK YOU
YOU KNOW WE HAD A VERY ROBUST
CONVERSATION ON THE REGIONAL
CENTER FOR SITE AND YOU KNOW
A LOT OF THE FEEDBACK THERE I
REALLY DO APPRECIATE IT BEING
-- ADDRESSED HERE I'M ESPECIALLY
WITH THE DIRECTIVE AUTHORITY
SO I WANTED YOU KNOW SAY
THANK YOU FOR FOR THAT WORKING
CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THE
WITH THE STAKEHOLDERS ON THAT
SO ONE OF MY FIRST QUESTIONS
I'M AND I ALSO WANT TO THANK YOU
ON THE LANGUAGE FOR THE COMPANY
NEEDS RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM
IN IN THE IN PROVIDING SOME
DIRECTION THE THE TIMELINE AND
SO FORTH JUST A QUICK QUESTIONS
AND CLARIFICATION ON THAT
TO CLARIFY WE'RE NOT USING
EXISTING BUILDING WITHIN
FAIRVIEW WERE BUILDING NEW
BUILDINGS ARE NOT COMPOUND OR
GROUND HE WELL YEAH THE FINAL
DECISION ON TO BUILD OUT THERE
ARE STILL NOT FINAL BUT THAT
WE'RE DEFINITELY EXPLORING
THAT IS A GOOD OPTION NEXT TO
AS I HAD NOTED HARBOR VILLAGE
IN BEING ABLE TO BE PART AND
WE WERE REALLY APPRECIATIVE
OF -- WILL AND VIVIAN FROM --
DISABILITY RIGHTS JOINING US
OUT THERE AND WALKING THROUGH
BECAUSE IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT
THAT THEY SEE KIND OF THE
VISION IF WE WERE ABLE TO KIND
OF LAND THAT AS AN OPPORTUNITY
CORRECT IT WOULD NOT BE EXISTING
BUILDINGS IT WOULD BE A A
GROUND UP BUILD PERFECT AND
THEN WITHIN THE TRAILER BILL
LANGUAGE IT THIS YEAR IS THERE
ANYTHING RELATED TO THE MAXIMUM
THE MAXIMUM BETS THAT IT'S
GOING TO BE THERE ARE GOING
TO BE THERE YEAH I'D HAVE TO
LOOK BACK THE INTENT IS BECAUSE
IT'S BASED ON WHAT IS WITHIN
OUR BUDGET AUTHORITY IS NO
MORE THAN FIVE INDIVIDUALS
PER HOME AND THREE HOMES --
I'D HAVE TO JUST VERIFY THE
EXACT LANGUAGE TO SAY IF IT
CLARIFIES THAT SPECIFICALLY IN
TRAILER BILL OR IF IT'S DRIVEN
BASED ON OUR BUDGET AUTHORITY
OKAY I WOULD BE INTERESTED IN
SEEING IF WE COULD PUT THAT
SPECIFIC FIVE BEDS PER PER HOME
OF THE THREE HOMES I'M
DEPUTY DIRECTOR IN
TALKING ABOUT TO BE
THE FAMILY BECAUSE OUR PROGRAM
HE'S A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT
THE DISCRETION IT I'M NOT
SURE IF MAYBE MISTER THAT
LAST PART IN THE QUESTION ON
THE DISCRETION THE DEPARTMENT
HAS TO FOR THEIR EXTENDED
AND ONE WITH THE COST OF --
EXTENDING THE V. SUSPENSION
HE YES I APOLOGIZE I DID NOT
ADDRESS THAT IN MY REMARKS SO
-- DIDN'T KNOW WE WOULD NOT HAVE
FURTHER DISCRETION TO EXTEND
WITHOUT -- CHANGING TENSION
QUESTION THANK YOU I KNOW
NEXT WEEK WE EVER VOTES ONLY
IN SO THIS IS LIKE MY LAST
OPPORTUNITY BILL TO ASK THESE
QUESTIONS SO I DO APOLOGIZE
I'M I'M GONNA GO BACK TO
THE EMPLOYMENT FIRST PROGRAM
BECAUSE I THINK THAT SO VITALLY
IMPORTANT TO KNOW THE PRIDE AND
AND -- THAT THEY HAVE TO
BE ABLE TO GO OUT HAVE A JOB
AND TAKE THEIR LUNCH BOX AND YOU
KNOW GO TO PERFORM A JOB RIGHT
WHETHER IT'S THAT YOU KNOW
SENATOR TO HOMEOWNERS WHEN EVERY
COULD STICK TO THE QUESTIONS OF
WHAT'S IN FRONT OF US OKAY SO
YOU KNOW WE DIVED INTO OUR
OVERSIGHT WE FAILED SO THE ONLY
QUESTION I HAVE I HAVE A SERIES
OF QUESTIONS BUT SINCE I'M
GONNA BE LIMITED WITH THAT AND
THE -- THE MINIMUM WAGE BILL
IS GOING TO BE PUT INTO PLACE
IS THERE A CONCERN AND THAT
AND A LOT OF THESE INDIVIDUALS
COULD BE DISPLACED ON A JOB
AND IF SO WHAT ARE YOU DOING
TO TRACKING TO MAKE SURE THAT
THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONTINUE
TO WORK THANK YOU SENATOR
SO WHAT THE STATE MINIMUM WAGE
IN THE TIMING ON THAT WOULD
SPEAK I THINK IT'S IT'S IN
TWENTY TWENTY FIVE THERE'S BEEN
A NUMBER OF INITIATIVES TO BE
ABLE TO SUPPORT INDIVIDUALS
TO BE ABLE TO TRANSITION --
FROM THEIR EXISTING SETTING TYPE
THAT INCLUDES -- SUB MINIMUM
WAGE WE HAVE A INITIATIVE
THAT ON A CAREER PATHWAY
AND WE'RE ALREADY STARTING --
SOME OF THAT INITIAL WORK IN
IDENTIFYING THAT SUPPORT SO
IT COULD BE SOMEBODY A BE A
PROVIDER WHO COULD GO IN AND
SUPPORT THE INDIVIDUAL I'M
TO BE ABLE TO EXPLORE THEIR
DIFFERENT OPTIONS FOR EMPLOYMENT
FOR COLLEGE DON'T THIS INCLUDES
NOT ONLY THOSE THAT ARE IN WORK
ACTIVITY PROGRAMS BUT THOSE
THAT ARE JUST GRADUATING YOU
KNOW HIGH SCHOOL AND REALLY
HAVING THOSE OPPORTUNITIES SO
WE'RE WE'RE REALLY FOCUSED ON
MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE WORKING
ON THOSE REPORTS TO MAKE SURE
THAT INDIVIDUALS HAVE THOSE
CHOICES AND TO BE ABLE TO I'M
NOT -- YOU KNOW SOME THE
CONCERNS OF THE COMMUNITY HAS
SAID THAT THEY'RE GOING INTO
A DAY PROGRAMS AND NOT HAVING
MEANINGFUL DAYS -- THAT THE
PILOT THAT WERE -- YOU SEEN --
ON THE COURT -- CAREER PATHWAY
IS A VERY PERSON CENTRED
APPROACH MAKING SURE THAT
SOMEBODY'S WORKING VERY CLOSELY
WITH THE INDIVIDUAL -- WE ARE
WORKING IN COLLABORATION WITH
STATE COUNCIL WERE WORKING WITH
THE COMMUNITY -- WE'VE ALSO
HAD SOME STAFF GO OUT AND MAKE
VISITS TO PROVIDERS -- BECAUSE
THIS IS A REALLY IMPORTANT --
POINT AND WE DO WANT TO BE ABLE
TO ADVANCE EMPLOYMENT WHILE
WE'RE EXITING OUT OF THE MIDDLE
AGE I APPRECIATE THAT IF YOU
HAVE ANY DOUBT OF THAT SHOWS
THAT THAT SUCCESSFUL I'D REALLY
LIKE TO SEE IT I KNOW MY TIME
IS LIMITED BECAUSE IT'S ON THE
SUBJECT MATTER THAT'S BEFORE
US BUT I THINK THAT YOU KNOW
WITH SB SIX THIRTY NINE BEING
IMPLEMENTED I REALLY MY BIG
FEAR IS IS THAT A LOT OF THESE
PEOPLE ARE GONNA LOSE THEIR
JOBS AND -- I KNOW WE'RE GOING
TO BACK FILL TO KIND OF THING
WHERE GRANDSON PLAYERS CAN APPLY
FOR GRANT FILL PROGRAM WHICH IS
LIKE A A BACK FILL TO THE STATE
MINIMUM WAGE TYPE THING M. BUT
I HAVE A HUGE CONCERN OVER THAT
SO IF YOU COULD PROVIDE ME DATA
THAT SHOWS THAT WHAT YOU'RE
DOING IS WORKING AND THAT WE
ARE GOING TO INCREASE EMPLOYMENT
FIRST INSTEAD OF ALLOWING THESE
INDIVIDUALS IN THIS POPULATION
TO NOT BE EMPLOYED AND I KNOW
-- MAYBE NOT EVER PROVIDE
IN SOME CASES NOT ALL CASES
BUT IN SOME CASES AND NOT
BILL TO PROVIDE FOR THEMSELVES
BUT TO HAVE THAT THAT ESTEEM
OF HAVING A JOB AND I THINK
AGAIN THAT THE CHAIR FOR THE
LEEWAY THANK YOU THE DEPUTY
DIRECTOR -- TO HAVE TWO OTHER
QUESTIONS FOR YOU ON THE ACCESS
TO GENERIC RESOURCES Q. CLARIFY
I READ A WE IS THE INTENT
TO REPEAL THE APPEAL PROCESS
NO IT'S NOT TEAR TO REPEAL
THAT IT'S TO CLARIFY THAT
WHILE THAT APPEAL IS GOING
ON THAT REGIONAL CENTERS
CAN PAY FOR THOSE SERVICES
CAN YOU EDUCATE ME A LITTLE BIT
MORE IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING
TO REPEALING THAT APPEAL PROCESS
MAYBE IT'S
WE DON'T GIVEN THE BAY AREA
THAT CAUSES A LOT FOR FAMILIES
THE APPEAL PART IF IF I COULD
M. SO IF I THINK I I
HEAR THE QUESTION CORRECTLY IT'S
LIKE WHAT IS THE PROBLEM WE'RE
TRYING TO FIX AND THE
THE FACT THAT THERE'S EXISTING
LAW -- THAT SAYS YOU KNOW FOR
THE PAYER OF LAST RESORT ARE YOU
UTILIZATION OF GENERIC RESOURCES
THAT THE FAMILIES THERE'S SOME
-- CLARITY THAT GOING THROUGH
THE APPEAL OR GOOD AT ASKING
FOR FUNDING THROUGH THEIR HEALTH
PLANS MEDIC HAL YOU KNOW THAT
THOSE PLANS WOULD FUND IT SO
GIVEN EXAMPLES -- MEDICAL CARE
DENTAL SO -- T. P. T. SPEECH
THIS IS WHAT THE FOCUS IS ON FOR
THIS -- THIS PROPOSED -- TRAILER
BILL LANGUAGE CHANGE AND THERE
HAVE BEEN DELAYS FOR FAMILIES
AT BEING ABLE TO GET A LETTER
BACK FROM THEIR HEALTH PROVIDER
TO SAY YES WE WILL FUND OR NO
WE WON'T FUND -- AND THEN THEY
KILL PROCESS IT JUST DEPENDS
ON HOW LONG IT MAY TAKE AND SO
WE HAVE HEARD THAT THERE'S BEEN
-- LIKE THE TIMES SO AGAIN THIS
GETS BACK TO OUR STANDARDIZATION
OF WANTING TO MAKE SURE THAT
REGIONAL CENTERS ARE APPROACHING
ON THESE DECISIONS IN A
STANDARDIZED WAY SO THE PROPOSED
TRAILER BILL ACTUALLY PROVIDES
THE CLARITY TO STATE THAT IF THE
DECISIONS ARE NOT MADE WITHIN A
CERTAIN PERIOD OF TIME OR THAT
EVIDENCE IS NOT PROVIDED THAT
THE REGIONAL CENTER WILL PAY
FOR THOSE SERVICES IT WILL HAVE
THE AUTHORIZATION AND IPP AND
BE ABLE TO PAY FOR THE SERVICE
STATION IS MADE CORRECT THIS
IS YOUR LANGUISHES WITH THE POP
UP THAT SAYS HOW MUCH TIME THEY
HAVE TO WAIT YES THE LANGUAGE
-- I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S UPDATED
JUST YET BUT WE WE ARE UPDATING
THAT LANGUAGE PERFECT THANK YOU
SO MUCH MY SECOND QUESTION IF
WE CAN GO BACK TO THE FAMILY
COSTS -- PARTICIPATION PROGRAM
YOU KNOW AFTER YOUR RESPONSE
THAT THE DEPARTMENT HAS NO
DISCRETION TO EXTENDED I'M
WONDERING I KNOW WE'RE STILL
YOU KNOW GETTING SOME FEEDBACK
FROM THE STAKEHOLDERS SOME
RECOMMENDATIONS WHEN THERE'S
GOING TO BE IMPLEMENTED I'M
THOUGHTS BEHIND AS WE'RE
IMPLEMENTING THIS NEW PROCESS
THE WHAT WOULD BE THE COST
TO PUSH THIS INTO THE NEXT TO
THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR WHILE
WE'RE HASHING EVERYTHING OUT
BUT THE QUESTION FOR THE COST
SEVENTY CENTS YES SO IF WE
HAVE NO DISCRETION IN THIS
IS SUPPOSED TO END -- IN
DECEMBER THIRTY FIRST TWENTY
TWENTY THREE AND AND WE'RE
STILL OBTAINING THE STAKEHOLDER
FEEDBACK AND RECOMMENDATIONS
THAT ARE GOING TO BE IMPLEMENTED
-- THE THE COST IF YOU WILL
TO THE STATE AND EXTENDING
THIS TO THE END OF THE FISCAL
YEAR NEXT FISCAL YEAR -- IN
ORDER TO HASH EVERYTHING OUT
RIGHT I THINK I DID MENTION THAT
THE THE REVENUE THAT THE STATE
WAS WAS GETTING BEFORE WHETHER
ANNUAL ON THE ANNUAL FAMILY
PROGRAMS HE WAS ABOUT A MILLION
DOLLARS ON AN ANNUAL BASIS
IN ON THE VEHICLE THE
RECOMMENDATION ARE WHAT ARE
SOME OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS
THAT THEY'VE -- SUGGESTED
IN WHICH OF THOSE ARE
GOING TO BE IMPLEMENTED
THANK YOU SO THERE'S SEVERAL
EIGHT I APOLOGIZE I DON'T
HAVE THAT IN FRONT OF ME
RIGHT NOW BUT SEVERAL OF THE
RECOMMENDATIONS THAT WERE MADE
WAS -- BASED ON THAT THE
TIME MEANS THE SUPPORT TO THE
EXPLANATION TO FAMILIES -- EVEN
LOOKING AT YOU KNOW SOME OF
THAT -- THE LEVEL OF FEDERAL
POVERTY LEVELS SO THERE'S
A NUMBER OF RECOMMENDATIONS
-- THAT WERE MADE AND WE'RE
HAPPY TO PROVIDE YOU ON THE
SUMMARY OF THAT REPORT -- AND
SINCE I DON'T HAVE IT HERE WITH
ME TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY GOT
MUCH IF YOU COULD ALSO SEND
ALSO WHICH ONES ARE ACTUALLY
GOING TO BE IMPLEMENTED THAT
I WOULD NOT KNOW THAT RIGHT NOW
-- AND THAT'S BECAUSE WE WOULD
WANT TO CIRCLE BACK WITH OUR
STAKEHOLDERS TO SAY OKAY BASED
ON YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS THIS
IS THE PLAN BEFORE A DIRECTIVE
WOULD BE SENT OUT -- THAT
WE WOULD WANT TO ENGAGE OUR
STAKEHOLDERS AGAIN THANK YOU

OF OUR OVERALL CASELOAD ACROSS
MULTIPLE PROGRAMS -- THAT'S
INCLUDED IN THE MAY REVISION IT
FORK HOW WORKS THE MAY REVISION
INCLUDES SIX POINT FOUR BILLION
TOTAL FUNDS IN TWENTY THREE
TWENTY FOUR WHICH REFLECTS A
DECREASE OF TWO HUNDRED AND
EIGHTY TWO POINT ONE MILLION
FROM GOVERNOR'S BUDGET THAT
DECREASE IS PRIMARILY DUE TO
A SLOWER GROWTH PROJECTED IN

PROJECTED TO BE THREE HUNDRED
AND FORTY THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED
AND FORTY THREE WHICH IS FIVE
POINT FOUR PERCENT LOWER THAN
THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET FOR

ONE GENERAL FUND FOR CALIFORNIA
MINISTRATION WHICH REPRESENTS
AN INCREASE OF SEVEN HUNDRED
AND TWENTY THREE POINT NINE
MILLION DOLLARS IN INCLUDING
TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY THREE
MILLION GENERAL FUND FROM THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET THE INCREASE
REFLECTS HIGHER COSTS ASSOCIATED
WITH THE ADMINISTRATIVE REBASED
AT METHODOLOGY WHICH I'LL SPEAK
ABOUT IN JUST A MOMENT HIGHER
MONTHLY AVERAGE CASELOAD GROWTH
THAN PREVIOUSLY PROJECTED IN
OUR CONFERENCE CASELOAD IS
PROJECTED TO BE THREE MILLION
I WHICH IS SEVEN PERCENT HIGHER
THAN THE TWENTY THREE TWENTY
FOUR GOVERNOR'S BUDGET THE MAY

INCLUDES ELEVEN POINT FOUR
BILLION TOTAL FUNDS THREE
POINT SIX BILLION GENERAL FUND
IN TWENTY THREE TWENTY FOUR
WHICH REFLECTS AN INCREASE OF
FORTY SIX MILLION TOTAL FUNDS
COMPARED TO THE GOVERNOR'S
BUDGET THE INCREASE IS DUE TO A
HIGHER AVERAGE ASSIST P. GRANT
AND A SLIGHTLY LOWER DECLINE
IN THE PROJECTED CASELOAD
OFFSET BY LOWER SS I GRANT IN
A LOWER COLOR PERCENTAGE THE
AVERAGE MONTHLY K. A SLIT IS
PROJECTED TO BE ONE MILLION ONE
HUNDRED AND EIGHT THOUSAND SIX
HUNDRED AND TWENTY FIVE WHICH
IS AN INCREASE AT ZERO POINT
FIVE PERCENT COMPARED TO THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET FOR AGES
THAT'S OUR IN HOME SUPPORTIVE
SERVICES PROGRAM THE MAY
REVISION INCLUDES TWENTY TWO
POINT FOUR BILLION DOLLARS TOTAL
FUN EIGHT POINT FOUR BILLION
GENERAL FUND WHICH REFLECTS
AN INCREASE OF ONE POINT NINE
BILLION TOTAL FUNDS SIX HUNDRED
AND THREE POINT THREE MILLION
GENERAL FUND COMPARED TO THE

GROWTH IN THE PROJECTED CASELOAD
COST PER HOUR AND HOURS PER CASE
THE UPLOAD CASELOAD IS PROJECTED

REVISION INCLUDES NINE POINT
SIX BILLION DOLLARS ONE BILLION
GENERAL FUND WHICH REFLECTS
AN INCREASE OF THREE HUNDRED
ELEVEN POINT THREE MILLION SIXTY
ONE BILLION BEING GENERAL FUND
FROM THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET THE
INCREASE IS DUE TO THE EXTENSION
OF THE ENHANCED FEDERAL MATCHING
FUNDS FOR THE FOSTER CARE
AND ADOPTION ASSISTANCE FROM
JUNE OF THIS YEAR TO DECEMBER
AND GROWTH IN PROJECTED LOCAL
EXPENDITURES FOR THE REALIGNED
ADOPTION ASSISTANCE A REVISED

WILL ALSO SPEAK TO AN INCLUSION
AT THE COUNCIL'S INTERFACE

HUNDRED AND SIXTY NINE WHICH
IS A ZERO POINT FOR INCREASING

PERCENT DECREASE FROM GOVERNOR'S
BUDGET AND FINALLY THE AVERAGE
MONTHLY CAN GET CASELOAD
IS PROJECTED TO BE EIGHTEEN
THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY
NINE WHICH IS A ZERO POINT FOUR
INCREASE FROM THE GOVERNOR'S
BUDGET THERE COMMITTEE ALSO
ASKED ABOUT THE SAFETY NET
RESERVE AND I WILL DEFER TO
MY DEPARTMENT AND COLLEAGUES
THAT FINANCE FOR THAT QUESTION
FOR THAT ANSWER HI ARGININE
DR DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE FOR
THIS I'D LIKE TO DEFER TO
MY COLLEAGUE JUSTIN FREITAS
JUSTIN FRIEDMAN FINANCED SO --
I THINK THE QUESTION JUST TO
THE VALIDITY OR VALUE BY THE
DEPARTMENT OR THE MINISTRATION
IS PROPOSING THAT CUTS THROUGH
WHEN WE LOOK AT THAT WHAT THE
ACTUAL START YOU SAYS FOR THIS
SO THE SAFETY NET RESERVE IS
INTENDED TO BE USED FOR THE
PURPOSE OF MAINTAINING EXISTING
PROGRAM BENEFITS AND SERVICES
FOR THE MEDIC CALLIN CAL
WORKS PROGRAMS DURING ECONOMIC
DOWNTURNS WHEN PROGRAM COSTS
MAY INCREASE DUE TO ECONOMIC
CONDITIONS GIVEN THE THIRTY ONE
AND A HALF BILLION SHORTFALL
IN THE STATEWIDE A PARTIAL
WITHDRAWAL THE ADMINISTRATION
BELIEVES IS NECESSARY TO ADDRESS
SOME OF THE INCREASED COST AND
MEDICARE ONLY CAL WORKS PROGRAM
-- THE STATE IS FACING A
REVENUE VOLATILITY AND THIS WILL
HELP -- DETER ANY POTENTIAL
SOLUTIONS OR REDUCTIONS IN
THOSE TWO PROGRAMS -- IN
COMBINATION WITH THE PROPOSED
MCO TAXES PROPOSAL HAVE STATE
THE STATE MAINTAIN POWER TO
MEDICAL SERVICES LEVELS WHAT
ELIMINATING THE NEED FOR PROGRAM
REDUCTIONS AND WE'RE STILL
-- PROJECTING ARE PROPOSING
TO MAINTAIN A FOUR HUNDRED
FIFTY MILLION RESERVE AND THAT
BUDGET AS WELL FOR THAT FUND
AND THEN THE FINAL QUESTION IN
THIS ISSUE AREA IS IN REFERENCE
TO THE DEPARTMENT CASE CALYX
CASELOAD PROJECTIONS AND SOME
DIFFERENCES POTENTIALLY A WITH
THE L. A. -- FOR THE DEPARTMENT
OF SOCIAL SERVICES ASK HOW
WORKS CASELOAD IS PROJECTED
-- AGAIN AS I REFERENCED AT
THAT IT'S AN IT'S AN DECREASE
FROM GOVERNOR'S BUDGET BUT
AN INCREASE OVER ALL OF FROM
YEAR TO YEAR IN AGAIN TO THE
EXTENT THAT THE DATA SHOWS
THAT CASELOAD SHIFT UPWARD
IN THE COMING MONTHS WOULD
MAKE NECESSARY ADJUSTMENTS
TO THE CASE THAT S. AS NEEDED
HELLO THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR
WE WILL BE LOOKING AT CASELOAD
ACROSS THE PORTFOLIO OF
DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES
PROGRAMS REALLY CHECKING THE
REPORTS WE HAVE ON ACTUAL USAGE
WITH AGAINST THE ESTIMATES THAT
SOMETHING THAT WE ALWAYS DO WE
ALWAYS TAKE VERY SERIOUSLY IT'S
ALSO EVEN MORE IMPORTANT WHEN
WE'RE WORKING IN TIGHT BUDGET
TIMES WITH THESE LARGER PROGRAMS
EVEN ESTIMATING DIFFERENCES OF
UP PERCENT OR SO CAN EQUAL A LOT
OF MONEY -- AND IN SPECIFICALLY
TO THE CAL WORKS PROGRAM WE
ARE THAT WE ARE IN OUR EARLY
STAGES OF REALLY LOOKING OUT
THE ADMINISTRATION'S ESTIMATED
CASELOAD AND WE ARE FEELING LIKE
OURS ARE A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT
A LITTLE HIGHER THAN THEIRS THE
WORD WE'VE SENT SOME INFORMATION
OUR METHODOLOGY TO THEM AND
WILL CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THEM
TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THERE IS
THIS IS BEEN A PARTICULARLY HARD
CASE LOAD TO PIN DOWN -- THE
LAST COUPLE OF YEARS ESTIMATING
HIS CLOTHES IS INHERENTLY
CHALLENGING AND FOR THE CALYXT
CASELOAD OVER THE COURSE OF
THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS IT'S
BEEN -- EVEN MORE SO SO IT'S
SOMETHING THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE
LOOKING AT I'M ON THE SAFETY
NET RESERVE WE WOULD JUST NOTE
THAT USING THESE FUNDS NOW MEANS
THAT THEY WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE
TO SUPPORT CORE PROGRAMS IN THE
FUTURE WHEN YOU KNOW THAT BUDGET
CONDITION MAY WORSEN SO THAT'S
SOMETHING TO CONSIDER AS YOU GO
FORWARD WE ARE ALSO CONTINUING
TO LOOK AT THE LANGUAGE TO
ENSURE THAT WE UNDERSTAND
THAT THE PROPOSAL IS -- IN
LINE WITH LEGISLATIVE INTENT
I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO IF
YOU COULD COME BACK SIR PLEASE
LET'S HAVE BEEN A LITTLE BIT
MORE IN INTO THE SAFETY NET
RESERVE A DRAW I KNOW YOU
YOU READ ME THE STATUE OF
IT -- Q. DIVING MORE INTO
HOW THAT'S GOING TO BE PUT BACK
INTO POWER CUTS IN MEDICARE
BECAUSE THAT'S THE ONLY WAY
WE'RE ALLOWED TO USE HIS
PARTNER I MEAN
JOINT I APOLOGIZE
AND ONCE AGAIN AFTER THIS DIES
-- SUE IF ARE YOU YOU'RE LOOKING
SPECIFICALLY FOR A LIKE A ONE
TO ONE HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION
DOLLARS WHERE WE GOING TO SEE
THAT WE INTERESTED OR SEEN IN
IN THE OVERALL BUDGET FOR THE
KEYSTONE RESEARCH ASSOCIATE WITH
CAL WORKS AND MEDIC COW SO IT'S
WHEN THE CASELOAD AND EVERYTHING
IS CALCULATING THE ESTIMATED
COST YOU KNOW WE TOOK INTO
CONSIDERATION EVERYTHING ACROSS
THE BOARD FOR THE GOVERNOR'S
BUDGET MAY REVISED AND
-- WHAT THAT'S DOING IS IT'S
ALLOWING FIRST AND NOT RESULT
IN ANY REDUCTIONS IN ANY OTHER
AREAS AS WELL NGUYEN STATIC IT'S
IT'S ABOUT FUNGIBLE FUNDS RIGHT
GENERAL FUND IN GENERAL SO WHAT
WE'RE SEEING NEEDS OF INCREASE
CASELOAD AND CAL WORKS AND
MEDICARE ARE WE NEED TO INCREASE
THOSE COSTS ARE EXPENDITURE
AUTHORITY FOR THE DEPARTMENTS
AND HI THIS IS ONE WAY FOR US
TO ASSIST WITH THAT RATHER THAN
DOING REDUCTIONS IN OTHER AREAS
OF THE MEDICARE ON THE -- CAL
WORKS PROGRAM TO COVER THOSE
INCREASED CASELOAD COSTS MAKE
MY FIRST GO AHEAD HERE Q. X.
PENA PICTURE WHAT WOULD IT LOOK
LIKE WHAT WOULD A REDUCTION
LOOK LIKE IS IT THE FACT THAT
WE WILL NO LONGER BE ABLE TO
SIGN PEOPLE UP FOR CAT WORKS
OR SIGN PEOPLE UP FOR MEDICARE
WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE
YOU YOU WOULDN'T HAVE SEEN SOME
REDUCTION REDUCTIONS OVERALL IN
THE OVERALL BUDGET FOR FOR THE
PROGRAM WHAT WE CAN DO IS WE
CAN FOLLOW UP WITH YOUR STAFF
IT'S MORE DISINFORMATION -- IF
THAT'LL BE HELPFUL I GUESS MAYBE
DIRECT IF YOU HELP ME OUT HERE
WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE IF WE
DON'T HAVE FOUR HUNDRED FIFTY
MILLION DOLLARS IS THAT IS THAT
MEAN CAL WORKS RECIPIENTS
WILL GET LESS OR NO MORE PEOPLE
CAN SIGN UP FOR TWO HOURS
I I AM GRATEFUL THAT WE ARE
IN A PROPOSAL IN THE MAYOR
VISION WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT
REDUCTIONS ADD TO THIS CASE
THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT FINDING
IT SO I MEAN AGAIN OBVIOUSLY
THERE ARE COMPONENTS OF ALL OF
THE FUNDING A CROSS CAL WORKS
EVERYTHING FROM WHAT WE PAY FOR
THE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION TO
WHAT WE LOOK AT FOR THE GRANT
INCREASE WHICH ALL REFERENCE TO
IN IN JUST A MOMENT -- SO THERE
ARE MANY WAYS IN WHICH THAT
TOTALITY OF FUNDS FOR CAL WORKS
ARE ACTUALLY SUPPORTING OUR
FAMILIES EXPERIENCING POVERTY
IN CALIFORNIA BUT ALSO THE WORK
THAT THE COUNTIES DUE TO SUPPORT
SO AT WE DON'T HAVE A PROPOSAL
FOR REDUCTIONS ON ANY OF THOSE
AT AT AREAS AT THIS POINT AND AT
AGAIN GLAD TO IF IF THAT THAT
IF THE LEGISLATURE WANTED TO
HAVE MORE CONVERSATION OF WHAT
THAT LOOKS LIKE WE COULD FOLLOW
UP TO DISCUSS ENSURE THEY GET
ANSWER THE WITHOUT GOING TO
MENTION THE DETAILS OF YOU KNOW
THE THE MEDICAL PROGRAM IS ALSO
EXPANDING TO RAIN SO WHAT YOU
CAN POTENTIALLY SEEING ARE YOU
KNOW DELAYS AND AN EXPANSION OR
THE ABILITY TO EXPAND SOME OF
THOSE GIVE AND -- IF WE DON'T
HAVE SOME OF THESE RESOURCES
TO COVER SOME OF THOSE COSTS
SO WHAT WHAT HAPPENING IN YOU
KNOW YOU YOU BROUGHT IT UP AND
THAT WAS MY NEXT QUESTION OF
YOU KNOW WE'RE HAVING THESE
FRIENDS ARE GOING TO HAVE NEXT
YEAR PRIVATE BELIEVE AND WE
DON'T WHAT IF YOU DON'T HAVE
THE FUNDING FOR THAT NEXT YEAR
THE THE PARTICULAR AT PROPOSAL
FOR A COW WORKS GRANT EASE GRANT
INCREASE COMES FROM THE CHILD
AND FAMILY SUB POVERTY ACCOUNT
A DIFFERENT FUND ESTABLISHMENT
A MECHANISM BY WHICH WE HAVE
CREATED AND ESTABLISHED BETWEEN
THE ADMINISTRATION AND THE
LEGISLATURE OVER TIME TO BE
ABLE TO LOOK KIND OF WHEREVER
REVENUE PICTURE STATES WHAT'S
REFLECTED IN THE SUB ACCOUNT
CAN THEN -- IDENTIFY WHAT WE'RE
ABLE TO DO IN TERMS OF HOW MUCH
IN TERMS THE GREAT INCREASE
OF THE FUNDS ARE CONSISTENTLY
SEPARATE I AM NOT FIND IN THE
WE DEMAND INTENTIONALLY TO
AGAIN TRY TO ADDRESS SUPPORT
FOR FOR SO WE'RE GOOD WITH THAT
FINE WOULD BE ENOUGH FOR THE
GRANT INCREASES MEET BASED ON
THE ADMINISTRATION'S CASE OF
PROJECTIONS YES SO AGAIN THOSE
ARE SEPARATE FUNDS ARE NOT
STATE GENERAL FUND YEAH
THREE TECHNICAL ON IT LIKE A
CASE OF REBUKE INCREASED IN THE
YEARS OUT MORE THAN WE PROJECTED
OF COURSE GENERAL FUND WOULD
BACK THAT WOULD BE NECESSARY FOR
THAT'S BUT THE ADMINISTRATION'S
PROPOSAL RIGHT NOW FOR THAT
CHILD AND FAMILY POVERTY SOME
ACCOUNT IS -- PROJECTED TO BE
ABLE TO TO COVER THIS GRANT
INCREASE IN PREVIOUS GAG
INCREASES WITHOUT ANY GENERAL
FUND NEED AND WE'RE LOOKING
AT THAT CASE THOUGH BECAUSE
WE HAVE DIFFERENT NUMBERS FROM
DIFFERENT ENTITIES GREAT --
THIS IS SEPARATE
CENTER THANK YOU MANAGER ONE
OF COULD LIKE TO FOCUS ON
THE SECOND PART OF QUESTION
NUMBER TWO AND MAYBE -- YOU'VE
SORT OF ANSWERED IT MAYBE NOT
AND THAT'S THE IMPACT OF DRAWING
DOWN THE SAFETY NET RESERVE
AND WHAT CONDITION DOES THIS
LEAVE THE SAFETY NET RESERVE
IF THE STATE'S ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
CONTINUES TO WORSEN IN THE NEXT
BUDGET YEAR IN FUTURE BUDGET
YEARS SO LET ME START WITH
FINANCE WHAT IS THE PROJECTION
FOR NOT THIS BUDGET YEAR WE
KNOW WHAT THAT IS AT THIRTY ONE
POINT FIVE BILLION CURRENTLY
DEFICIT WHAT WHAT ARE YOU
PROJECTING FOR THE THE OUT YEARS
SUE AND I DON'T THINK I HAVE
THE INFORMATION FOR A COMPLETE
PICTURE OF THE ENTIRE BUDGET FOR
WHAT'S GOING OUT BUT IT'S BEEN
PUBLISHED SOMEWHERE I JUST DON'T
HAVE IT IN WRITING I DON'T HAVE
IT IN FRONT OF ME I DON'T KNOW
WHETHER IT'S WORSE THAN THIRTY
ONE POINT FIVE BILLION SEEMS TO
ME IT'S IT'S SORT OF IMPROVES
OVER THE NEXT TWO BUT IT'S STILL
A DEFICIT RIGHT HEY SORRY I'M
HAPPY TO FOLLOW UP WITH YOU
AND YOUR STAFF ON THAT WHAT IT
TO TO ATTEMPT TO ANSWER PART
OF YOUR QUESTION HERE IS THAT
THE GOVERNOR THE OVERALL MAY
REVISION TOOK INTO ACCOUNT THE
OUT YOUR COST AND THERE WERE
YOU KNOW CHALLENGING DECISIONS
TO MAKE TO HELP MAINTAIN A
FULL BUDGET AND NOT RUN INTO
THAT DEFICIT THE NEW ONES SO
MY QUESTION IS IF WE DRAIN FOUR
HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION OUT OF
THE SAFETY NET RESERVE LEAVING
FOUR HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION
TO COVER CONTINGENCIES ARE
YOU ANTICIPATING THAT THE MCO
TAX IS GOING TO MAKE UP OF THE
DIFFERENCE SO THAT WE DON'T IN
THE CURRENT PROJECTIONS WE DON'T
HAVE TO TAP THE REMAINING FOUR
HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION FOR TO
MAKE YOU KNOW -- BUT WAS TAUGHT
THERE'S GOING TO TIME BUT I'LL
JUST THROW THEM ALL OUT THERE OR
IF IT'S NOT IS THE FOUR HUNDRED
AND FIFTY MILLION GOING TO BE
SUFFICIENT TO COVER THE NEXT TWO
BUDGET CYCLES WHICH WHERE THEY
ANTICIPATE SOME LEVEL OF DEFICIT
AND IF NOT THEN WHAT WE DO SO
I I DEFINITELY WILL NEED TO
FOLLOW UP WITH YOU ON YOUR QUEST
RELATED COUNTY MCO TAX AND ALL
WILL IMPACT IS PROJECTED IMPACT
EVERYTHING -- GIVEN THAT THAT
IS IT'S IN A DIFFERENT POLICY
AREAS AND -- MY COLLEAGUE AND I
USUALLY WORK ON SO I CAN FOLLOW
UP WITH YOU TO SEE WITH THAT
PROJECTION IS BUT WHAT I CAN SAY
IS THAT A LOT OF THESE THINGS
ARE TAKEN IN CONSIDERATION WHEN
DEVELOPING THE MAY REVISION SO
DID THE ADMINISTRATION FEELS
CONFIDENT THAT WITH LEAVING
FOREIGNER FIFTY MILLION STILL
AND THE RESERVE AND WITH ALL
THE OTHER RESERVES THAT ARE
AVAILABLE AND THE PROJECTIONS
OF COSTS THAT -- THIS SHOULDN'T
RESULTS AND -- THE SITUATION
THAT YOU'RE REFERRING DURING
THAT YOU'RE ASKING ABOUT SO
IT SHOULD HAVE IS WE SHOULD HAVE
ENOUGH FUNDS TO TO -- PROJECTING
GOING FORWARD FOR THE US THAT
THIS WITHDRAWAL THE FOREIGNER
FIFTY KNOWN TO HELP COVER THESE
CAL WORKS A MEDICAL COST WILL
STILL FOR ALLOW FOR OUT HERE
-- PROTECTION WITH THE FOREIGN
FIFTY MILLION IS BEING LEFT
IN THE SAFETY NET RESERVE FUND
WHY BUT YOU KNOW I APOLOGIZE
FOR ASKING A DETAILED QUESTION
I I JUST THINK IT WOULD BE
IMPORTANT I THINK FOR THE BUDGET
COMMITTEE TO KNOW WHAT THE
PLAN IS BECAUSE I'M SURE THAT
SOMEWHERE IN THE THE BELLS OF
FINANCE SOMEBODY'S DONE THE
PROJECTIONS ON WHAT'S GIVEN THE
CURRENT STATE OF THE ECONOMY
IN THE EXPERIENCE COLLECTIVE
EXPERIENCE THAT THE DEPARTMENT
OF FINANCES HAD IN DEALING
WITH THESE RECESSIONS OVER TIME
YOU CAN PROBABLY PROJECT AT
LEAST IN THE BALLPARK WHAT THE
DEFICITS ARE ANTICIPATED TO BE
AND POSING AN MCO TAX WE
PROBABLY CAN PROJECT WHAT THE
REVENUE FROM THE NCO TAX WILL
GENERATE AND HOW ITS USE WILL
BE USED IN THOSE IN THE STATE
BUDGET WE OUGHT TO HAVE AN IDEA
OF WHETHER THERE'S GOING TO BE
FOUR HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION
LEFT IN THE SAFETY NET RESERVE
IN TWO YEARS OR NOT AND IF NOT
WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO ABOUT IT
RIGHT AND WE CAN FOLLOW UP WITH
YOU LIKE I SAID A UNFORTUNATELY
NO NO I'M I'M I'M CENTERS ARE
DEFINITELY -- I'LL ACCEPT THAT
RISK ANALYTICS ONE THROW THAT
OUT THERE THAT WE ARE THINKING
ABOUT IT AND I KNOW YOU ARE
TOO SO THANK YOU FOR THE
QUESTION THANK YOU MEGACENTRE
YEAH THAT'S TOP OF MIND AS
WELL RATE -- I THINK LA --
MENTION TO THAT SHOULD BEGIN
INTO WORST ECONOMIC DOWNTURN
I'M AND I'M GONNA GO BACK TO
THE QUESTION I HAD ON CAL WORKS
I THINK I I'M STILL I'M GONNA
REPHRASE IT A DIFFERENT WAY I'M
I RECOGNIZE THE TEN PERCENT THAT
YOU MENTIONED IN THE INCREASE
BUT RIGHT NOW THEY GOT IT THEY
RECENTLY GOT A TEN PERCENT
RIGHT NOW -- IN ITS ON A TRIGGER
FOR NEXT YEAR IS THAT ALSO
COMING OUT OF THAT SPECIAL FUND
SUSAN YET THAT'S A GREAT
QUESTION SURVEY TO HELP
IDENTIFY THE DIFFERENCE SO
TRADITIONALLY IN STATUTE --
PERCENT EIGHTY EIGHTY FIVE --
THERE IS A MATCH I'M NOT TO
MEET PAYMENT INCREASE ANYTIME
THE CHILD POVERTY FAMILIES SOME
PROPERTIES OF ACCOUNT HAS ENOUGH
FUNDS TO COVER THAT I'M GOING
THE TEMPORARY TEN PERCENT A
YEAR REFERRING TO IS COMPLETE
GENERAL FUND SO THAT'S PROJECTED
SAID TO COVER FOR GENERAL
FUND THE ADMINISTRATION IS NOT
PROPOSING AND THEN OUT HERE
THAT THAT'S FALLING OFF OUR
ASSUMPTIONS IS THAT THAT'S
GOING TO GO ON HOWEVER WE'RE
GONNA READ DETERMINE THAT
PERCENT TO START JUNE TWENTY
FOUR TWENTY FOUR TWENTY FIVE TO
YES I APOLOGIZE IN AT FOR THE
TWENTY FOUR TWENTY FIVE BUDGET
TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU KNOW
OR TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR
NOT REVENUES WILL SUPPORT ON
GOING BUT FOR THIS BE REVISION
BUDGET THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET
THE ASSUMPTION IS THAT ITS
ONGOING WE DIDN'T SO WE'RE GOOD
RIGHT NOW NOW HERE'S THAT UNTIL
JUNE OF NEXT YEAR THERE'S NO
THERE'S NO SOLUTION ASSUMPTION
WITHOUT GRANT INCREASED ITS
ASSUME TO THAT -- THE GOING
FORWARD AND THEN WE'LL REASSESS
DURING THE TWENTY FOUR TWENTY
FIVE BUDGET YEAR OKAY ELIADE
YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD TO THAT
NO I THINK I WOULD JUST ADD
ON TO SENATOR ROTH POINT ABOUT
CAN OUT YOUR PROJECTIONS AND
JUST PUT A NOTE IN THAT OUR
OFFICE IS CURRENTLY WORKING
ON OUR PROJECTIONS OF THE
ADMINISTRATION'S BUDGET WILL
BE RELEASING KIND OF OUR OUR
BIG PICTURE LOOK AT IT BUT AT A
HIGH LEVEL WE ARE ANTICIPATING
JUST LOOKING AT REVENUES THAT
WILL REVENUES WILL PUT US IN
A WORSE PICTURE BY JANUARY OF
AROUND SIX BILLION AT LEAST SO
THAT'S ALSO SOMETHING TO KEEP
IN MIND ON THAT I THINK GOING
BACK TO THAT THAT THE GRANT
INCREASING HOW WORKS THAT COMES
OUT OF THAT REALIGNMENT FUNNY
NOT AUTOMATIC GRANT BECAUSE WE
ARE ANTICIPATING A HIGHER CASE
LOAD IN THE ADMINISTRATION WE DO
HAVE CONCERNS THAT IT WILL THAT
THAT ACCOUNT WILL BE ABLE TO
AFFORD THE GRANT INCREASE BEING
PUT FORWARD AND WE SEE IT AS
REALLY A A GENERAL FUND PRESSURE
BECAUSE OF THAT HIGHER HIGHER
-- THEN THE ADMINISTRATION
ESTIMATED CASELOAD FOR US
THANK YOU FILIPINOS

BUILDING ON THAT WHAT WE'VE
LEARNED TO TO E. S. M. E. B.
T. AT THE EDC ASSURANCES PRIOR
P. CONDEMNING COMMITTEE PRIOR
COUNTY CALFRESH ADMINISTRATION
REBASED ALSO A CONVERSATION WE
HAD WE DID HAVE A REQUIREMENT
AS THROUGH THE ENACTMENT OF
AB TWO OF SEVEN TO LOOK AT THE
METHODOLOGY USED TO ADD BUDGET
ADMINISTRATION FOR CALIFORNIA
WE WE CAN BE A STAKEHOLDERS
AND HAVE A COUNTY WORKGROUP
HAD A FIFTY COUNTY SURVEY I
ENGAGE WITH MANY SUN ON THIS NEW
METHODOLOGY IT HAS YIELDED -- A
MAJOR REVISION PROPOSAL THAT HAS
AN ADDITIONAL FOUR HUNDRED AND
SIX POINT FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE FIFTY NINE
POINT FIVE WHICH IS GENERAL
FUND REFLECTOR THIS REVISED
BUDGETING METHODOLOGY I'LL TALK

JUST A SECOND BUT THIS ISN'T
EIGHTEEN POINT SIX PERCENT
INCOME INCREASED WHEN COMPARED
TO THE CURRENT METHODOLOGY AND
AGAIN ONE APPRECIATE EVERYONE'S
EFFORTS WITH S. ON LOOKING
AT THIS REVISED METHODOLOGY
FEDERAL REIMBURSEMENT OF FOOD
BENEFIT THEFT -- AND AGAIN
-- THE FEDERAL CONSOLIDATED
APPROPRIATIONS ACT OF TWENTY
TWENTY THREE MANDATED FEDERAL
REIMBURSEMENT FOR SNAP FOOD
BENEFITS THEFT I AM FEDERAL
ALSO RETROACTIVELY INSTITUTED

SKIMMING AND SCAMMING BEGINNING
OCTOBER OF TWENTY TWENTY TWO
AND EXTENDING THROUGH SEPTEMBER
AT TWENTY TWENTY FOUR PRIOR
TO THIS FEDERAL LAW CALIFORNIA

OF THE COSTS THESE COSTS THE
MAY REVISION INCLUDES SEVENTY

POINT TWO MILLION TOTAL FUNDS
TWELVE POINT THREE OF WHICH IS

TOTAL FUNDS TO IMPROVE EBT CARD
TECHNOLOGY AND AGAIN BEGINNING
IN MAY OF TWENTY TWENTY FOUR
EDT CARDS ARE SET TO BE ISSUED
WITH A CHIPPED TAP TECHNOLOGIES
WHICH IMPROVES FRAUD PROTECTION
OVER THE MAGNETIC STRIPE
TECHNOLOGY THAT CURRENTLY EXIST
ALSO RELATED TO THE WORK NUMBER
CONTRACT THE WORK NUMBER IS
A THIRD PARTY EMPLOYMENT AND
INCOME VERIFICATION SERVICE
THAT COUNTY WELFARE DEPARTMENT
USED TO MAKE CAO WORKS IN
CALFRESH ELODIE ELIGIBILITY
DETERMINATIONS DUE TO A
RECENT STATE REQUIREMENT
TO REDUCE PAPERWORK BURDENS
FOR BENEFICIARIES ARE COUNTY
PARTNERS ARE TURNING TO THE
SERVICE MORE OFTEN RESULTING
IN A HIGHER USAGE BECAUSE THE
VENDOR CHARGES BASED ON USAGE
THE COST FOR THE SERVICES
HAVE INCREASED SO THE MAY
REVISION INCLUDES A TOTAL OF
IT ADDED AN ADDITIONAL ELEVEN
MILLION DOLLARS AND I'M GOING
TO I WENT BACK KIND TRACKED
CALFRESH ORAL NOTICE OF WORK

THAT TIME BUT IF IT'S CAL WHICH
IS THE COUNCIL IS A STATEWIDE
APPLICATION PORTAL WILL BE
AVAILABLE AND IT'S EXPECTED
TO OFFER THE SAME LEVEL OF
CLIENT SERVICE AND EASY ACCESS
AS GET FAT CALFRESH DOT ORG
-- AND FINALLY THE SECOND
QUESTION IS DISCUSSING A
LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT THE --
CALFRESH COUNTY ADMINISTRATION
METHODOLOGY THE NEW METHODOLOGY
UPDATE SPENDING FOR APPLICATIONS
BOTH THOSE THAT ARE APPROVED
AND DENIED EXPEDITED SERVICE
TIME FRAME CONSTRAINT VARIANCE
IN REQUIRED ACTIVITIES
ASSOCIATED WITH SPECIFIC
POPULATIONS AND REQUIRED
ADMINISTRATIVE ACTIVITIES
PERFORMED BY SPECIALIZED WORKERS
THE METHODOLOGY UTILIZES AN
UPDATED FULLY LOADED CAL FOR
FRESH ELIGIBILITY WORKER RATE
I'D ALSO HAS SOME ADDITIONAL
FUNDING FOR ONGOING CASE
MANAGEMENT AN INTAKE -- AND
AGAIN THE CASELOADS FOR EACH
POPULATION WILL BE UPDATED
ANNUALLY WITH THE METHODOLOGY
TO BE REASSESSED TRY AND TRY AND
YEARLY I BELIEVE THAT THE INTO
THIS QUESTION DO THAT WITH ONE
BREATH L. A. ALREADY COME IT
JUST ON A COUPLE OF ITEMS ON
THE -- MOVE OUT DATE OF THE
CALIFORNIA FOOD ASSISTANCE
PROGRAM EXPANSION WE WOULD JUST
WE'RE WE'RE WORKING TO BETTER
UNDERSTAND WHAT WHAT CHANGED TO
ALLOW THIS -- MORE XCELERATED
TIMELINE AND THEN ALSO WHETHER
THERE ARE CERTAIN BENCHMARKS
THAT THE ADMINISTRATION WILL
NEED TO MEET IN ORDER TO MAKE
THAT ULTIMATE TIMELINE AND
WHETHER THE LEGISLATURE WOULD
LIKE TO CONSIDER WAYS TO BE
UP CAN'T BE KEPT UP TO DATE
ON MEETING THOSE BENCHMARKS
SO THAT WE REALLY CAN HAVE
OVERSIGHT ON THIS PROCESS --
ON THE ADMINISTRATIVE REBASED
WE ARE LEARNING ABOUT THE AND
THE NEW PROPOSAL AND ONE OF
OUR QUESTIONS THAT WE HOPE TO
LEARN MORE ABOUT AS WE START
TO WORK WITH THE DEPARTMENT
TO UNDERSTAND IT IS HOW IT
EMPLOYEES ARE HOW IT HOW IT
ADDRESSES KIND OF MAYBE SOME
KEY LESSONS LEARNED FROM
OTHER ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESS
THREE BASES THAT WE HAD SUCH
A THING CAL WORKS THAT THAT
-- ADMINISTRATIVE FUNDING
PROCESS WE LEARNED IS NOT A
SENSITIVE WHEN YOU SEE REALLY
-- VERY QUICK INCREASES IN
CASELOAD OR REALLY -- QUICK
DECREASES SO HOW DOES THIS
-- AT FIVE AT PROCESS ADDRESS
THOSE TYPES OF THINGS TO
THOSE THAT WHAT WE'RE HOPING
TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THANK YOU
DEPARTMENT TENANTS IN COMMON
-- LOTUS -- JENNY DOCTOR
DEPARTMENT FINANCE AT NO
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS OUT ON
-- ON THE POINTS COVERED BY
THE DEPARTMENT -- WE CONCUR
WITH THAT THE REMARKS MADE BY
DIRECTOR JOHNSON STREET --
-- THANK YOU DIRECTOR WITH --
AFTER A TOUGH CONVERSATION
SAFETY NET STARTING UP WITH TWO
POSITIVE THINGS ON C. PAP TO
STARTING IN TWO YEARS EARLIER I
KNOW THAT WAS ONE OF THE THINGS
THE PREVIOUS MEETINGS WE TALKED
ABOUT -- AND THEN THE SUMMARY
B. T. REALLY EXCITED ABOUT
THAT ONE JUST ONE QUESTION FOR
ME ON THE OR NOTICE OF WORK
RULES ARE WE TELLING EVERYONE
OR JUST THOSE WERE ELIGIBLE
SURE THE ORAL NOTICE OF RULES
IS GOING TO BE SPECIFICALLY
FOCUSED ON WORK REGISTRANTS
AT THE A BOX POPULATION IN
THOSE AND ELIGIBLE FOR CALFRESH

THAT WOULD RECEIVE THAT
PERFECT CONSIDERABLE
YOU KNOW THE QUESTIONS PERFECT
THANK YOU WILL BE A HOLD ITEM
OPEN LUNCH ISSUE NUMBER TEN
OKAY AND THIS IS AGAIN AGAIN
KIM JOHNSON DEPARTMENT SOCIAL

COMING BACK TO CAO WORKS OUT
IN THE PROPOSAL'S HERE AS
REFERENCE THE MAY REVISION
INCLUDES A THREE POINT SIX
PERCENT INCREASE TO THE CAL
WORKS MAXIM A PAYMENT OUR MAP
LEVELS EFFECTIVE OCTOBER ONE OF
TWENTY TWENTY THREE AGAIN IN THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET THAT WAS TWO
POINT NINE SO WE'RE GLAD TO SEE
THAT HE'S EVEN HIGHER IN THE MAY
REVISION PROPOSAL IS ESTIMATED
TO COST ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN
POINT TWO MILLION DOLLARS AT
BEGIN IS FUNDED ENTIRELY BY
THAT CHILD POVERTY AND FAMILY
SUPPLEMENTAL SUPPORTS THAT
ACCOUNT AT THE LOCAL REVENUE
FIND JUST TO GIVE YOU A SENSE
OF WHAT IT MEANS FOR FAMILIES
AT THE INCREASE WILL BRING THE
NON EXEMPT MAP LEVEL FROM ONE
THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY
DOLLARS TO ONE HUNDRED ONE
THOUSAND ONE HUNDRED SEVENTY ONE
DOLLARS PER MONTH FOR A FAMILY
IN AN ASSISTANCE UNIT OF THREE
RESIDING IN A HIGH COST COUNTY
IT'S ABOUT A FORTY ONE DOLLAR
INCREASE FROM THE CURRENT LEVEL
AN INCREASE TO THE FIFTY FIFTY
SEVEN PERCENT OF THE TWENTY
TWENTY THREE FEDERAL POVERTY
LEVEL FOR THE SAME FAMILY SIZE
AND FORTY SEVEN PERCENT FOR THE
FAMILY SIZE ONE GREATER THAN THE
ASSISTANCE UNIT I AM AGAIN SINCE
APRIL ONE TWENTY TWO THOUSAND
NINETEEN THE STATE HAS INCREASED
TOGETHER WITH THE LEGISLATURE
AND THE GOVERNOR HAS INCREASED
THE MONTHLY CAO WORKS MAP
LEVEL FOR AN EIGHT YEAR THREE
BY FORTY NINE PERCENT SO AGAIN
CONTINUED IMPROVEMENT IN THIS
AREA THE TRAILER TRAILER BILL
LANGUAGE THAT'S PROPOSED HERE
IS JUST PERFECT WITH THE GRANT
INCREASE AS IT RELATES TO
THE ALLOCATION PARTIAL REVERSION
AT THE TWENTY TWENTY ONE BUDGET
ALLOCATED ONE POINT EIGHT
TWO BILLION DOLLARS FOR THE
CHARACTERS IN THE ALLOCATION
AND OF COURSE AGAIN THE SINGLE
CATIONS USED FOR EMPLOYMENT
SERVICES TO SUPPORT CLIENTS
ADMINISTER ADMINISTRATION OF THE
COW WORKS PROGRAM THE DEPARTMENT
PROJECTS COUNTIES WILL SPEND ONE
POINT FOUR EIGHT BILLION OF THE
ALLOCATED FUNDING FROM TWENTY
ONE TWENTY TWO LEAVING THREE
HUNDRED AND THIRTY FOUR POINT
FOUR MILLION AS UNSPENT FUNDS SO
AS A SOLUTION TO ADDRESS ADDRESS
THE STATE'S BUDGET DEFICIT THE
MAY REVISION PROPOSES TO REVERT
TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTY MILLION
AB AND USED GENERAL FUND FROM
THE TWENTY ONE TWENTY TWO SINGLE
ALLOCATION AT AN EARLIER TIME
FRAME RATHER THAN WAITING WHAT
WOULD HAVE ACTUALLY OCCURRED
IN JUNE OF TWENTY TWENTY FOUR
AT THE TWENTY TWENTY ONE TWENTY
TWO ALLOCATION FIFTY FOUR
POINT NINE MILLION MILLION WILL
REMAIN AVAILABLE FOR COUNTIES
TO CLAIMS OF THE STILL HAS
SOME ROOM THERE THEY HAVE SOME
MORE TIME TO CLAIM AND THERE
IS SOME AT FUNDING ASSOCIATED
WITH THAT WE WILL ABSOLUTELY
ENGAGE WITH THE COUNTY WELFARE
DIRECTORS ASSOCIATION TO
DETERMINE PRECISE AMOUNTS AND
WE DO NOT ANTICIPATE THE EARLY
REVISION HAVING ANY IMPACT ON
CLIENT SUPPORTS AND SERVICES
AS IT RELATES TECH HOWARD'S
FAMILY REUNIFICATION AUTOMATION
AND COUNTY ADMINISTRATION
FUNDING AT THIS IS AGAIN A GREAT
ALSO POLICY CHANGES PROVIDING
CACHES CONTINUED CASH ASSISTANCE
TO PARENTS WHOSE CHILDREN HAVE
BEEN ROOF REMOVED FROM THE
HOME IN PLACE IN OUT OF HOME
CARE WITH THAT IDEA THAT WE'RE
LOOKING TO STABILIZE THEM TO A
SUPPORT AT THE REUNIFICATION OF

THE MAY REVISION INCLUDES THREE
POINT EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS
GENERAL FUND FOR AUTOMATION
AND COUNTY ADMINISTRATION TO
IMPLEMENT THIS CONTINUE CASH

IN IMPLICIT BIAS THERE'S A RE
APPROPRIATION REQUEST OF FOR
TEN MILLION DOLLARS OUT OF THE
TWENTY TWENTY TO BUDGET ACT
TO CONTINUE THE DEVELOPMENT
OF COUNTY STAFF TRAINING ON
RACIAL EQUITY IN IMPLICIT BIAS
AND THEN FINALLY THE CAL WORKS
EXEMPTION FOR GUARANTEED INCOME
PAYMENTS ARE THIS REALLY THIS
TRAILER BILL LANGUAGE IS --
AT SIMPLIFYING ADMINISTRATION
PROCESS THESE FOR JURISDICTIONS
WHO WANT TO IMPLEMENT GUARANTEED
INCOME AT WHERE THEY CURRENTLY
HAVE TO MAKE A REQUEST FOR
THE DEPARTMENT TO REVIEW AND
APPROVE IT WOULD SIMPLIFY
ALLOW THAT THOSE -- GUARANTEED
INCOME AT DOLLARS WOULD NOT
COUNT AGAINST THE CAL WORKS
AT GRANT AMOUNT ALSO THE
DEPARTMENT HAS AT APPLIED FOR
SOME ADDITIONAL FEDERAL FUNDING
SHOULD WE BE SUCCESSFUL IN
THAT APPLICATION WE WANT TO
ENSURE THE ALLOWANCE FOR TRIBES
TO APPLY AT FOR ANY EXPANSION
TO GUARANTEED INCOME AND SO
THAT'S WHAT THE -- -- I PROGRAM
IS PROPOSING TO THAT PARTICULAR
LANGUAGE IS POSING TO DO
THANK YOU L. A. O. ANY COMMENT
JUST A NOTE AGAIN ON THE THE
GRANT INCREASE WE WILL KEEP
YOU UPDATED AS WE CONTINUE TO
WORK WITH THE DEPARTMENT ON
OUR CASELOAD ESTIMATES AND OUR
ASSESSMENT OF WHETHER OR NOT
THEY SUB ACCOUNT CAN AFFORD
THAT LEVEL OF GRANT INCREASED
-- ON THE SINGLE ALLOCATION
REVERSION ONE OF OUR QUESTIONS
WAS JUST ANSWERED ABOUT HOW MUCH
WAS WOULD ADDITIONALLY BE LEFT
-- IN THIS SINGLE ALLOCATION
AFTER THIS REVERSION SO TO
US IT DOES RAISE SOME BROADER
QUESTIONS ABOUT THE SINGLE
ALLOCATION AND THE UNSPENT
FUNDING BUT THAT'S SOMETHING
WE WILL WORK WITH A LONGER TERM
WITH THE DEPARTMENT THANK YOU
TO PREFERENCE ANY ADDITIONAL
COMMENTS ARGININE DR APARTMENT

TALKING ABOUT IN MANY DIFFERENT
SPACES AT ADDRESSING INEQUITIES
IN OUR SYSTEM AT THE MAY
REVISION INCLUDES SIXTY POINT
SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS TWENTY
SEVEN POINT NINE OF WHICH IS
GENERAL FUND I'M GOING FOR
THE ELIMINATION OF SPECIFIED
I HSS MINOR RECIPIENT PROVIDER
ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS TO
BETTER SERVE I JUST AS PROGRAMS
MINOR RECIPIENTS AND THEIR
FAMILIES THIS PROPOSAL IMPACTS
CURRENT TO AUTHORIZE CASES THAT
ARE I'M ABLE TO HIRE A PROVIDER
DUE TO THE PARENT ELIGIBILITY
RULES FOR MINOR RECIPIENTS
AFTER DETERMINING ELIGIBILITY
FOR A JUST A SOCIAL WORKERS
ARE REQUIRED TO ASSESS PARENTAL
ABILITY AND AVAILABILITY TO
PROVIDE I JUST CARE TO THEIR
MINOR CHILDREN UNDER CURRENT
RULES AND REGULATIONS THEY
CAN'T MAKE ONLY BECOME A P.
PROVIDER FOR THEIR CHILD IF
THERE ARE NO OTHER SUITABLE
PROVIDERS AVAILABLE IN THE
PARENT IS PREVENTED FROM FULL
TIME EMPLOYMENT DUE TO THE CARE
NEEDS OF THEIR CHILD THESE RULES
ARE COMPLEX AND CAN RESULT IN
THE UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCE OF
NEITHER A PARENT NOR A NON
PARENTS BEING ELIGIBLE TO WORK
AND I JUST THAT'S PROVIDER
WITH WITH THIS CHANGE I JUST
WITH MY TO RECIPIENTS WILL HAVE
THE ABILITY TO CHOOSE THEIR
PROVIDER WITHOUT ADDITIONAL
REQUIREMENTS IN ALIGNMENT WITH
ADULT I JUST S. RECIPIENTS
I REMOVING THESE MINOR RECIPIENT
FIGHTER ELIGIBILITY RULES WILL
ENSURE THAT ALL MINOR CHILDREN
HAVE ACCESS TO THEIR PROVIDER
OF THEIR CHOICE LIKE OTHER IHS
RECIPIENTS IN AGAIN ADDRESS
THAT DISPARITY THAT HAS EXISTED
-- SO AGAIN HAPPY TO BRING
THE SPORT AS A PROPOSAL IN THE
MAY REVISION ADDED COMMITTEE
ASKED -- WHAT THE TIMELINESS
OF BEING ABLE TO IMPLEMENT UPON
ENACTMENT OF THE LEGISLATION
THE DEPARTMENT WILL PROVIDE
INSTRUCTIONS AND GUIDANCE TO BE
IN ALL COUNTY LETTER TO COUNTIES
COUNTIES WILL NEED SOME TIME
TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS AND CHANGES
TO EXISTING CASES -- THAT'S
THE DEPARTMENT ANTICIPATES
CHANGES TO UTILIZATION OF OURS
TO BEGIN IN THE FALL OF THIS
YEAR THE COMMITTEE ALSO
ASKED ABOUT THE IMPACT OF THE
PRINT THIS PROPOSAL ON COUNTY
ADMINISTRATION THERE WILL BE
IMPACTS ON COUNTY ADMINISTRATION
HOWEVER THIS CHANGE ACTUALLY
GREATLY SIMPLIFIES THESE
CASES BECAUSE THE COUNTY
SOCIAL WORKER NO LONGER HAVE
TO ADDITIONALLY ANALYZED TO
DETERMINE IF THE PERSPECTIVE
PROVIDER IS ELIGIBLE TO WORK
FOR THE MINOR RECIPIENT THE
MAY REVISION DOES INCLUDE FOUR
MILLION TOTAL FUND IN TWENTY
THREE TWENTY FOUR FOR COUNTIES
TO IMPLEMENT THIS PROPOSAL --
AND THEN FINALLY -- AS YOU'VE
ALREADY DISCUSSED THE H. C. B.
S. PROGRAM EARLIER ON THE AGENDA
FOR ASKS AND FOR THE -- APLIK
APPLICABILITY AT THE I JUST
AS GROUP HATHAWAY'S PROGRAM
AT THE ADMINISTRATION AGAIN
-- IS EXTENDING IS PROPOSING
TO EXTEND THE DEADLINE TO
FULLY EXPAND HOURS FOR SELECT
PROGRAM TO SEPTEMBER THIRTIETH
TWENTY TWENTY FOUR I WE WOULD
EXTEND THE IHS GROUP HAPLESS

MONTHS OF TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES
TO NEW AND EXISTING PROGRAM
PARTICIPANTS CLASSES WOULD BE
EXTENDED FROM DECEMBER OF THIS
YEAR TO JUNE OF NEXT YEAR THE
REMAINING THREE MONTHS WILL

IN TRAINING AND WILL QUALIFY
FOR INCENTIVES DURING THIS
ADDITIONAL TIME IN THE EXTENSION

HELLO THANK YOU ON THE ON
THE MINOR ELIGIBILITY LANGUAGE
WE WOULD JUST LIKE TO LEARN
MORE ABOUT THE UTILIZATION DATA
FOR MINORS SO WE WILL BE ASKING
SOME QUESTIONS AROUND THAT WE
ALSO WANT TO BETTER UNDERSTAND
THE ACTUAL LANGUAGE PROPOSED
AND TO SEE HOW IT THERE ARE
POTENTIALLY BE ANY UNINTENDED
CONSEQUENCES OF THE LANGUAGE
OR WHETHER IT'S A NARROWLY
CRAFTED IT TO REALLY TARGET
THE POPULATION IT'S INTENDED TO
TARGET TO SOMETHING WE'RE TAKING

NOTHING FURTHER ON MY END
ISSUE NUMBER TWELVE
THANK YOU VENTURE MEMBERS CAN
JOHNSON SOCIAL SERVICES -- THIS
IS A THIS IS REALLY A TECHNICAL
CLEANUP PRESSES LICENSE P.
THE DEPARTMENT PROPOSES THAT
ACCENTUATE STATUTORY CHANGES
TO INCREASE THE F. P. PORTION
OF THE SS I SS P. GRANT AS
PROPOSED IN THE TWENTY TWENTY
THREE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET AND
INTENTIONALLY WE DID NOT INCLUDE
THIS TRAILER BILL PROPOSAL
AS PART OF THE TWENTY TWENTY
THREE BUDGET SO THE GOVERNOR'S

AND FORTY SIX MILLION DOLLARS
GENERAL FUND IN BUDGET YOUR FOR
THE GRANT INCREASED EFFECTIVE
JANUARY OF TWENTY TWENTY FOUR
IN THIS INCREASE CONTINUES TO
BE REFLECTED IN THE MAY REVISION
THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR WE HAD

OTHER INVESTMENTS IN THE SPACE
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH COMMUNITY
BASED ORGANIZATION NETWORKS THAT
EQUITABLE CARE AND TREATMENT

B. AT B. H. CONNECTS AT THAT
HEALTHCARE SERVICES THAT IS
CURRENTLY ADMINISTERING SO
THE MAY REVISION PROPOSES TO
SHIFT THE IMPLEMENTATION DATE
TWO JANUARY OF TWENTY TWENTY
FIVE THREE VICE IMPLEMENTATION

FOURTEEN POINT FIVE MILLION
TOTAL FUNDS ALSO IN TERMS OF
A RE APPROPRIATION REQUEST
IN CHILD WELFARE TRAINING
THE DEPARTMENT REQUEST TO
RE APPROPRIATE SEVEN MILLION
DOLLARS FOR THE CHILD WELFARE

OUTDATED IN THIS UNNECESSARY
LANGUAGE INCLUDING REFERENCES
TO THE COW WORKS PROGRAM AND ITS
ASSOCIATED REQUIREMENTS AS WELL
AS INCOME AND PROPERTY LIMITS
FOR ELIGIBILITY AND FINALLY I
WILL TURN TO AT MY COLLEAGUES
TO SPEAK MORE TO THE CBS CARES
HI ADAM DUNDER DIRECTOR OF THE
SYSTEMS INTEGRATION WITH
CALIFORNIA HEALTH AND HUMAN
SERVICES AGENCY -- BEFORE I
START -- I WANT TO GIVE THIS ONE
JUSTICE I DIDN'T KNOW IF YOU'D
LIKE TO ADDRESS ANY OF THOSE
PRIOR ITEMS BEFORE I TAKE US
OFF ON A SOMEWHAT TENSION ON THE
SIDE OF GO HEAD OKAY EXCELLENT
SO THE SHARES PROJECT
IS REPLACING THE EXISTING
LEGACY CHILD WELFARE SYSTEM THAT
SYSTEM BUILT IN NINETEEN NINETY
SEVEN REMAINS THE LARGEST CHILD
WELFARE SYSTEM IN THE COUNTRY
WITH OVER THIRTY THOUSAND USERS
SO THIS IS THAT THIS IS A BIG
DEAL THIS IS A MAJOR DEAL -- I
I WANT TO GIVE A LITTLE BIT OF
BACKGROUND THAT GOT US TO WHERE
WE ARE NOW BECAUSE IT'S BEEN A
LONG PROCESS THE SYSTEM ITSELF
IS A PARTNERSHIP WITH SOCIAL
SERVICES MY OFFICE -- AS I CHILD
WELFARE DIRECTORS ASSOCIATION
IN COLLABORATION WITH FIFTY
LOCAL CHILD WELFARE AGENCIES
AND TRY AND TRAVEL PARTNERS
THE EXISTING SYSTEM IS NOT
COMPLIANT WITH STATE OR FEDERAL
REQUIREMENTS IT'S NOT ABLE TO
MEET OUR PROGRAMMATIC NEEDS
AND IT NEEDS TO BE UPDATED
AND WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THAT
OVER THE DECADES IN ADDITION
TO THE EXISTING CORE SYSTEM
OUR USERS HAVE ADDED ADDITIONAL
FUNCTIONALITY OUTSIDE THE SYSTEM
TO MEET SOME OF THOSE GAPS ARE
INTENT WITH THIS PROJECT IS
PROVIDE THAT CENTRALIZE CORE
SYSTEM THAT MEETS THE NEEDS
OF OUR COUNTY PARTNERS WHO ARE
PROVIDING THE SERVICES TO THE
CHILDREN AND FAMILIES AROUND THE
STATE THE CORE FUNCTIONALITY
OF THE SYSTEM IS GOING TO
PROVIDE A WHOLE LOT OF BENEFITS
WHEN WE DO THAT WE NEED TO
ALIGN EVERYTHING WHERE WE'RE
AT THIS YEAR IS WERE FINALLY
PROVIDING YOU WITH THE BASELINE
THAT'S NEEDED TO MONITOR THAT
PROGRESS IN S. B. R. SIX LAST
YEAR WE WERE WORKING THROUGH
CHANGES WE HIGHLIGHTED IN S.
B. R. FIVE WOULD BE COMING
TODAY BEFORE YOU WE HAVE THAT
PROPOSAL WITH EVERYTHING THAT
HAS THE PATH FORWARD THE S. B.
R. AND S. B. C. P. THAT ALIGNS
WITH THAT WAS BASED ON IN DEPTH
ANALYSIS AND GO SHE ASIANS
WITH OUR VENDOR PARTNERS TO
DETERMINE COST AND TIMELINE IT
INCLUDES UPDATES TO THE SCOPE
TO PROCESS OUR INTERACTIONS
WITH THE COUNTIES IN PARTNERSHIP
THERE AND ALL OF THIS WAS THAT
IT WITH AN INDEPENDENT THIRD
PARTY ADVISOR INSTEAD OF JUST
TALKING TO THE VENDORS AND SAY
WHAT DO YOU THINK IT'S GOING
TO COST WEDDED INDEPENDENT
THIRD PARTY WHO COMPARED OUR
ESTIMATES THE VENDOR ESTIMATES
THE COUNTY'S INPUT WITH SIMILAR
COMPLEX PROJECTS THAT THEY'VE
SEEN ACROSS THE COUNTRY BASED
ON EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE TO
VALIDATE THAT THESE NUMBERS ARE
ACCURATE FOR WHAT IT'S ACTUALLY
GOING TO TAKE TO DELIVER THIS
FUNCTIONALITY TO OUR USERS THE
APPROACH THAT WE'RE PROPOSING
IS TWO VERSIONS BEING DELIVERED
FIRST VERSION ONE WOULD BE
DELIVERED IN OCTOBER AND --
YES OCTOBER OF TWENTY TWENTY
SIX AND THAT WOULD ALLOW US TO
RETIRE THE EXISTING SYSTEM STOP
FUNDING STOP MAKING UPDATES
GET ALL THE COUNTY USERS ON TO
THAT NEW FUNCTIONALITY AS SOON
AS POSSIBLE EIGHTEEN MONTHS
LATER IN APRIL OF TWENTY TWENTY
EIGHT WE IMPLEMENT VERSION TWO
WHICH WOULD BUILD UPON THAT
CORE FUNCTIONALITY OF THE ONE
EXPAND ON CAPABILITIES SUCH AS
ADVANCED ANALYTICS CONTINUED
IMPLEMENTATION OF INTERFACES
WITH EXTERNAL SYSTEMS AND CHILD
WELFARE CONTRIBUTING AGENCIES
AND WOULD BE TIED SPECIFICALLY
TO FEDERAL SEE WHAT'S COMPLIANCE
AS REQUIRED TO ACHIEVE OUR
FEDERAL FUNDING LEVELS THE
REVISED PROJECT COST FOR THE
TOTAL PROJECT IS ONE POINT SEVEN
BILLION DOLLARS EXCLUDING KERR'S
LIFE COSTS AND THERE'S SOME
CRITICAL LARGE BUCKETS WITHIN
THAT THAT IMPORTANT UNDERSTAND
THAT NUMBER FIRST AND FOREMOST
TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION
DOLLARS FOR COUNTY AND TRIBAL
PARTICIPATION THIS ISN'T A
TYPICAL BUCKET YOU WOULD SEE
AND ARE PROJECTS BUT FOR THE
CRITICAL FUNCTIONALITY OUR USERS
HAVE TO BE ENGAGED AT EVERY STEP
OF THE PROCESS AND DESIGNING
BUILDING TESTING AND WE HAVE
THEM AS OUR PARTNERS BUYER SIDE
EVERY STEP OF THE PROCESS SO
THAT FUNDING IS CRITICAL WE
HAVE TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY
FIVE MILLION FOR IMPLEMENTATION
AND STABILIZATION COSTS AND
I'LL TALK IN A MOMENT ABOUT THE
NEW IMPLEMENTATION MODEL THAT
WILL BE USING SPECIFICALLY TO
FOCUS ON CHILD SAFETY WE HAVE
A HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION
FOR DATA INFRASTRUCTURE IS
SOMEWHAT UNIQUE COMPONENT WE
BUILT INTO THIS PLATFORM TO
ALLOW US TO MAINTAIN AUTONOMY
TO LEVERAGE AND UTILIZE THAT
DATA FOR ANALYTICS TO BE ABLE
TO EVALUATE THE PROGRAMS IN
THE WAY THAT WE'RE OPERATING
WE HAVE TWO HUNDRED BILLION
FOR SALES FORCE LICENSES AND
A HUNDRED AND EIGHTY MILLION
FOR MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS
ON GOING SO THERE'S A LOT THAT
BREAKS DOWN TO THAT NUMBER
TO GET TO THIS POINT
WE'VE DONE A LOT OF WORK FIRST
AND FOREMOST WE ON BOARDED
OUR VENDORS WE HAVE CONTRACTS
NEGOTIATED SO THAT FOR THE FIRST
TIME WE HAVE A HOLISTIC VIEW OF
WHAT THE ONGOING COSTS ARE FOR
THIS PROJECT THAT ALIGN WITH
THE PEOPLE WHO ARE ACTUALLY
BUILDING IT IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
THE STATE AND AS I MENTIONED
THAT INDEPENDENT ADVISOR WAS
CRITICAL IN THIS NEGOTIATIONS
AND MAKING SURE THAT WE HAD A
LINE WITHOUT WE NEED TO BE THE
SECOND PIECES OF THE WE DID A
PILOT DEMONSTRATION PROJECT OF
THE SMALL PIECE OF FUNCTIONALITY
THE TEST OUT OUR PROCESSES
ARE COMMUNICATIONS LEVERAGING
THE COUNTIES TO BE THERE AT
THE PLACES THEY NEED TO BE TO
PROVIDE THEIR EXPERTISE AND WHAT
WE HAVE BEFORE YOU ADJUST FOR
ALL THE THINGS THAT WE LEARNED
DURING THAT PROCESS SOME OF
THOSE KEY THINGS THAT WE LEARN
THAT WE THINK ARE CRITICAL TO
THE SUCCESS OF THIS PROJECT IS
ADJUSTING THE SCOPE WITH THAT
INPUT WITH AMENDED THE CONTRACTS
TO SPECIFICALLY INCLUDE ROLES
AND RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE
VENDOR THE COUNTY PARTNERS IN
THE STATE TO MAKE SURE THAT
THERE'S CLARITY ON WHO WAS
RESPONSIBLE AND ACCOUNTABLE
FOR WHICH PIECES THAT INCLUDES
ENHANCING THE SYSTEM INTEGRATOR
RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR
PRIMARY VENDOR THIS DIDN'T
EXIST UNDER THE OLD MODEL AND
WE'VE DETERMINED THAT IT'S
CRITICAL TO BE ABLE TO HOLD
THAT BENDER RESPONSIBLE AS
YOU WOULD ON A TYPICAL PROJECT
FOR DELIBERATELY OF THE WHOLE
SYSTEM EVEN THOUGH WE HAVE
MULTIPLE VENDORS RESPONSIBLE
FOR DIFFERENT COMPONENTS WE
HAVE A GREATER EMPHASIS ON
USER FEEDBACK HAS MENTIONED
WITHOUT FUNDING FOR ACCOUNTING
AND TRAVEL PARTNERS AND THEN IN
PARTICULAR THE IMPLEMENTATION
HAS BEEN UPDATED ORIGINALLY WHAT
WAS PROPOSED WAS A NINE MONTH
ROLLOUT WITH SMALL GROUPS OF
COUNTIES PIECE BY PIECE THIS IS
THAT WE TYPICALLY DO ARE LARGE
PROJECTS AND PARTNERSHIPS WITH
THE COUNTIES LARGELY BECAUSE
FROM A TECHNOLOGY PERSPECTIVE
IT'S MUCH LESS RISKY RIGHT IT'S
A SMALLER GROUP OF FOLKS LESS
DATA BEING TRANSFERRED OVER
AND YOU CAN MAKE UPDATES AS
YOU GO BUT IN THIS PARTICULAR
INSTANCE IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OUR
VENDITTE VENDORS IN THE COUNTIES
WE DETERMINED THAT FOR CHILD
SAFETY THIS WASN'T THE RIGHT
APPROACH YOU WOULD END UP WITH
COUNTY WORKERS LIVING IN TWO
SYSTEMS SOME DATA ABOUT A CHILD
OR FAMILY IN ONE SYSTEM NOT IN
THE OTHER SYSTEM IN ONE COUNTY
THAT'S ROLLED OVER TO THE NEW
SYSTEM THEY MAY HAVE IT IN THE
NEW SYSTEM BUT WHEN THAT CHILD
GOES TO SCHOOL IN THE OTHER
COUNTY IT WOULD BE IN THE OLD
SYSTEM AND YOU WOULD HAVE PEOPLE
MISSING INFORMATION THAT WAS
CRITICAL FOR THE CHILD SAFETY
SO IN THIS INSTANCE WE UPDATED
IT TO AN ALL AT ONCE STATEWIDE
ROLLOUT TO DO THAT HOWEVER WE
NEED TO REDUCE THE TECHNOLOGICAL
RISKS THAT GO WITH THAT SO
WE'VE BUILT IN A PRODUCTION
PILOT THAT IF YOU COUNTIES WILL
COME ON BOARD HEAD OF TIME THEY
WILL LIVE IN TWO SYSTEMS BUT
THE OLD SYSTEM WILL REMAIN THE
SYSTEM OF RECORD WITH EVERYTHING
BEING ENTERED THERE BUT IT WILL
ALLOW US TO SEE ANY GAPS IN
OUR TRAINING ANY GAPS THAT NEED
TO BE FIXED IN THE SYSTEM AND
ADDRESS THOSE BEFORE GOING WITH
THAT STATEWIDE ROLLOUT WE THINK
THAT CHANGE THOUGH AN ADJUSTMENT
IN THE TIMELINE AND COST WAS
CRITICAL FOR CHILD SAFETY SO
ALL THESE THINGS WE BELIEVE
HAVE SET US UP FOR SUCCESS
WITH THE PROJECT IN ADDITION TO
ENHANCING OUR ABILITY TO PROVIDE
ACCOUNTABILITY AND OVERSIGHT
TO SEE HOW THAT PROGRESS IS
MOVING ALONG ONE OF THE KEY
PIECES TO THAT ACCOUNTABILITY
IS THAT THE OLD MODEL USED
TECHNICAL INCREMENTS THIS WAS
THAT CODE BASED MEASUREMENT
SYSTEM THAT WAS REALLY BASED
ON TIME WHAT WE'VE MOVED TO IS
MILESTONES BASED WHERE WE HAVE
THE ACTUAL FUNCTIONALITY OF THE
SYSTEM BUILT INTO MILESTONES
AND DELIVERED ALONG THE WAY SO
THAT WHEN WE SAY A COMPONENT
IS COMPLETED AND WE'RE GOING TO
PROVIDE FUNDING TO THE VENDOR
WE HAVE ACTUAL VALUE THAT CAN BE
MEASURED AND TESTED BY THE
COUNTY USERS AS OPPOSED TO JUST
SOME ARBITRARY AMOUNT OF TIME
THAT'S PASSED THE CODE THAT'S
DELIVERED THIS WILL ENHANCE OUR
REPORTING AND OUR ABILITY FOR
US ON THE PROJECT AND FOR ALL
OUR OVERSIGHT PARTNERS TO BE
ABLE TO TRACK AND MONITOR IT
LASTLY KEEP PIECE IS REALLY
ABOUT THAT COUNTERING COUNTY AND
TRIBAL ENGAGEMENT AND I'D LIKE
TO PASS IT TO MY PARTNER WITH
DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES
THANK YOU AND GOOD MORNING
FLEENER CHILD CHIEF OPERATING
OFFICER OF THE CALIFORNIA
DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES
SO I JUST WANNA -- PROVIDE
A LITTLE MORE DETAIL ABOUT
THAT COUNTY ENGAGEMENT AND
TRIBAL -- ENGAGEMENT MODEL THE
PROJECT SCOPE INCLUDES SOME
PRETTY SIGNIFICANT UPDATES
ON HOW WE WILL ENGAGE --
COMMUNICATE AND HOW WE WILL
MAKE SURE THAT THE SYSTEM --
USERS -- REALLY HAVE A SOLID
ADOPTION MODEL FOR THE NEW
SYSTEM THAT WE'RE DEVELOPING
A IT'S REFERRED TO AS THE CORE
CONSTITUENT PARTICIPATION MODEL
AND WE HAVE ABOUT THIRTY SEVEN
COUNTIES THAT ARE PARTICIPATING
IN THAT AS WELL AS TO --
FOR E. TRIBES THAT HELP
US SERVE OUR CHILD WELFARE
SERVICES PROGRAMS SO THEY'RE
INVOLVED IN THE CO DESIGN AND
THE ITERATIVE PROCESS TO PROVIDE
FEEDBACK WE DEFINITELY RECOGNIZE
THAT THAT FEEDBACK IS IMPORTANT
TO MAKE SURE THAT -- THE
COUNTIES AND TRIBES ARE INVOLVED
IN -- THE VARIOUS MILESTONES
WILL HAVE OPPORTUNITIES TO WORK
HANDS ON IN THE SYSTEM AS WE'RE
DEVELOPING IT AND PROVIDE THEIR
-- THEIR FEEDBACK IN TERMS OF
-- CONFIRMING ITS USABILITY
AND DO THE FEATURES WORK WELL
AND HOW WILL IT WORK TO SERVE
ALL OF THE DIFFERENT PROCESSES
THAT THEY HAVE IN THE COUNTIES
OF THE VARIOUS SERVICE AREAS
-- AND A SPECIAL GROUP PROGRAMS
THAT WE HAVE -- THROUGH THE
CHILD WELFARE SYSTEM ONE OF THE
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS IS ALSO
-- INCREASING COMMUNICATION SO
REALLY HAVING MORE TRANSPARENCY
AROUND HOW WE LOOK AT THE
USER FEEDBACK AND TRIAGE IT
AND WORK WITH -- THAT THE
DESIGNERS TO DETERMINE WHAT WE
ARE ABLE TO A COMEDY INTO THE
SYSTEM WE DO HAVE ABOUT FIVE
NEW -- CDSS POSITIONS IN THE
B. C. P. REQUEST AND THOSE
WILL BE FOCUSED ON SUPPORTING
THE ENGAGEMENT WITH THE
COUNTIES TO REALLY UNDERSTAND
EXTERNAL SYSTEMS AND COME TO
AN UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT'S
SUPPORTABLE IN THE SCOPE -- HOW
CAN WE AVOID DUPLICATE INJURY
AND MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE ABLE TO
MEET FEDERAL COMPLIANCE AND WHAT
CAN BE TO THE COMMISSION ONCE
WE GET TO THE IMPLEMENTATION
OF CARES WE REALLY WANT TO MAKE
SURE THAT THE SYSTEM WORKS FOR
ALL FIFTY EIGHT COUNTIES AND THE
TRIBES AND WITH THAT THE MAY
REVISION INCLUDES TWENTY THREE
MILLION -- ELEVEN POINT FIVE
MILLION OF IT IS GENERAL FUND
-- AND THIS WOULD BE PROVIDED
TO THE COUNTIES AND TRIBES AS
AN UP FRONT FUNDING ALLOCATION
-- WE'VE LEARNED FROM RECENT
YEARS THAT WITHOUT HAVING
SOME CERTAINTY AROUND THE UP
FRONT FUNDING THAT IS GOING
TO BE INVESTED TO HELP WITH
COUNTY OPERATIONS AND MAKES IT
REALLY DIFFICULT FOR COUNTIES
TO REALLY PARTICIPATE AND
ENGAGE THE LEVEL THAT'S NEEDED
ESPECIALLY AS WE'RE ENTERING
THIS VERY PIVOTAL MOMENT OF
THIS PROJECT SO THIS FUNDING
-- WILL HELP IN TERMS OF THEIR
OPERATIONAL PLANNING READING
IS FOR THE PROJECT AND IT WILL
BE TIED TO THE PARTICULAR --
PROJECT MILESTONES THAT WE
HAVE AND WE WILL BE WORKING
CLOSELY WITH YOU EVERY DAY
-- THE COUNTIES AND THE
TRIBES ON THE METHODOLOGY
ON HOW THAT FUNDING WILL BE
DISTRIBUTED TO THE COUNTIES
-- I ALSO WANT TO POINT OUT
-- INTERFACES -- CARES WILL
REQUIRE INTERFACES WITH OTHER
SYSTEMS SO I SEE THE IN THE
AGENDA WE HAVE -- POINTED OUT
THE -- CAL SUBSYSTEM --
AND WE DO HAVE -- -- FOSTER
CARE ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATION
-- INTERFACE THAT IS --
GOING TO BE DEVELOPED SO THAT
THERE CAN BE BI DIRECTIONAL
EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION
BETWEEN THE TWO SYSTEMS ARE
CURRENTLY WE HAVE -- INFORMATION
THAT EXISTED CAL SAWS FOR
ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATION
AND PAYMENTS AND THEN WE HAVE
-- CASE MANAGEMENT PLACEMENT
AND PROVIDER INFORMATION THAT
WILL BEING CARES SO THE STATE
EXCHANGE WOULD REALLY GET THE
NECESSARY INFORMATION OVER
TO CARES SO THAT IT CAN BE A
COMPREHENSIVE -- A SYSTEM
THAT WOULD COMPLY WITH THE
FEDERAL REQUIREMENTS AND THAT
WHAT THE FEDS ARE REQUIRING
IS THAT THE FORTY AGENCY
MUST USE A SINGLE AUTOMATED
FUNCTION FOR ALL ELIGIBILITY
DETERMINATION SO WE HAVE TO GET
THE INFORMATION OVER TO THE CARE
SYSTEM -- THAT THE BUDGET
INCLUDES TWENTY FIVE MILLION FOR
THIS BI DIRECTIONAL INTERFACE
AND THAT IS IN ADDITION TO
THE SEVEN MILLION AND GENERAL
FUND THAT WE'VE -- PREVIOUSLY
BUDGETED -- OF WHICH THREE
MILLION GENERAL FUND IS INCLUDED
IN THE BUDGET YEAR AS WELL AND
ALL OF THIS AUTOMATION FOR THE
CALCIFIED AND -- FOSTER CARE
ELIGIBILITY DETERMINATION SYSTEM
WILL HELP ALLEVIATE A LOT OF THE
MENTAL PROCESSES OF RIGHT NOW
THERE'S A VERY PAPER INTENSIVE
PROCESS FOR DETERMINING
ELIGIBILITY AND TRACKING ALL
THE PLACEMENT CHANGES AND
SOMETIMES THAT RESULTS IN SOME
OF THE FOR YOU PAYMENTS --
HAVING DISCREPANCIES OVERPAYMENT
OR UNDERPAYMENT SENATE GIVEN
MONTH BECAUSE OF THE --
DELAY OR LACK OF AVAILABILITY
OF INFORMATION BECAUSE OF
THAT MANUAL PROCESSES USED
AND SO -- THESE INTERFACES
-- THE THERE'S ANOTHER IN THE
FACE ALSO AS MENTIONED IN THE
L. A. -- ANALYSIS REGARDING
FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT AND THAT
-- INTEL'S HOW COUNTIES WILL GET
REIMBURSED FOR -- COSTS FOR
ADMINISTRATIVE AND ASSISTANCE
CLAIMS SO ALL OF THESE DIFFERENT
INTERFACES THEY HAVE THEIR OWN
-- TIMELINES THEIR OWN ROAD
MAPS ARE IN VARIOUS STAGES
OF -- EITHER DEVELOPMENT OR
MIGRATION SO -- WE DO HAVE THOSE
REFLECTED IN VERSION ONE OF
THE IMPLEMENTATION FOR TWENTY
TWENTY FIVE BUT WE DO RECOGNIZE
THAT THERE'S A LOT OF THOUGHTFUL
PLANNING THAT NEEDS TO STILL
TAKE PLACE TO MAKE SURE THAT
THE TIME FRAMES AND THE THE
ROADMAPS ALIGNED FOR EACH OF THE
INTERFACES WITH THE CARE SYSTEM
THANK YOU SO MUCH -- BEFORE WE
MOVE ON WE NEED TO TAKE A RECESS
UNTIL ONE THIRTY -- WE HAVE TO
GO TO CAUCUS NOW AS TO WILL BE
BACK AT ONE THIRTY AND THEN
WILL ASK THE QUESTION OKAY
THANK YOU JUST
TO DIGITAL
JUST BEFORE THE BUDGET
SUBCOMMITTEE NUMBER THREE
ON HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
WILL RECESS UNTIL ONE THIRTY
THE SENATE BUDGET SUBCOMMITTEE
NUMBER THREE ON HEALTH
AND HUMAN SERVICES WELL --
COMMENCED RECOMEND BUT
WE WERE IN THE MIDDLE OF
ISSUE NUMBER THIRTEEN WITH
-- DEPARTMENT SOCIAL SERVICES
WE WERE DONE YOUR SELENA
YES I HEARD WORLD GOOD WE'RE
NOT GOING TO SHIP TO LMAO
TO PROVIDE COMMENTS ON --
CARECE HI BRIAN METZGER WITH
THE LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S
OFFICE -- WE FIND THAT THE
RECENTLY APPROVED CWS CARES
PROJECT DOCUMENTATION -- DOES
PROVIDE A CLEAR PROJECT BASELINE
COST SCHEDULE AND SCOPE THAT
CAN HELP THE LEGISLATURE AND
OTHERS MONITOR THE PROJECT'S
PROGRESS TOWARDS COMPLETION
OF THE PROJECT BASELINE AS
WAS MENTIONED IS THE DELIVERY
OF A NEW FEDERALLY COMPLIANT
SYSTEM BY APRIL TWENTY TWENTY
EIGHT AT A COST OF ONE POINT
SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS WHICH
HALF OF THAT IS STATE FUNDING
HOWEVER THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN
IN DEVELOPMENT IMPLEMENTATION
FOR OVER A DECADE WITH PROJECT
EXPENDITURES EXCEEDING THREE
HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS
THEREFORE WE CAUTION AGAINST
THE APPROVAL OF ANY ADDITIONAL
PROJECT FUNDING WITHOUT MORE
LEGISLATIVE INVOLVEMENT IN
AN OVERSIGHT OF THE PROJECT
CONTINUED LACK OF PROGRESS ON
THIS PROJECT COULD PUT FEDERAL
FUNDING AT RISK AND FURTHER
DELAY THE IMPLEMENTATION OF
LEGISLATIVE AND OTHER CHANGES
TO CHILD WELFARE PROGRAMS AND
SERVICES WE RECOMMEND
THE LEGISLATURE TAKE SEVERAL
ACTIONS TO ENSURE PROGRESS
TOWARDS PROJECT COMPLETION
CONTINUES ON TIME AND WITHIN
BUDGET FIRST WE RECOMMEND THE
LEGISLATURE ADOPTS TRAILER
BILL LANGUAGE THAT CLEARLY
DEFINES ITS GOALS AND PLANNED
OUTCOMES FOR CWS CARES INCLUDING
BOTH DEFINITIONS OF PROJECT
COMPLETION AND SUCCESS CLEAR
DIRECTION FROM THE LEGISLATURE
REMOVES ANY UNCERTAINTY ABOUT
THE PROJECT BASELINE AND
DIRECTION GOING FORWARD AND
SET THE CRITERIA TO HELP THE
LEGISLATURE MONITOR PROJECT
PROGRESS SECOND WE RECOMMEND
THE LEGISLATURE OUT ONTO AND
MODIFY THE PROVISIONAL BUDGET
BILL LANGUAGE THAT'S BEEN
PROPOSED BY THE ADMINISTRATION
FOR THIS PROJECT THE PROPOSED
LANGUAGE WITH HOLDS ABOUT TWENTY
PERCENT OF THE PROJECT FUNDING
PENDING A DETERMINATION BY
THE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE THAT
QUOTE VERIFIED SATISFACTORY
PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE TOWARDS
PROJECT COMPLETION IT DOES NOT
DEFINE SATISFACTORY PROGRESS
HOWEVER AND SIMILAR LANGUAGE
PROPOSED LAST YEAR WAS NOT
USED BECAUSE THE PERCENTAGE OF
FUNDING THAT WAS WITHHELD WAS
TOO LOW THEREFORE WE RECOMMEND
THE LEGISLATURE TO FIND
SATISFACTORY PROGRESS USING THE
PROPOSED TRAILER BILL LANGUAGE
SO THAT THE ADMINISTRATION
THE LEGISLATURE AND PROJECT
STAFF CAN MEASURE IN VERIFY
PROJECT PROGRESS GOING FORWARD
FURTHERMORE WE RECOMMEND THE
FUNDING THAT IS WITH HELD BE
INCREASED TO THIRTY FIVE PERCENT
TO ENSURE THE LEGISLATURE
HAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO VERIFY
SATISFACTORY PROGRESS THIRD
WE RECOMMEND THE LEGISLATURE
CONSIDER ADDITIONAL OVERSIGHT
TOOLS CURRENTLY MONTHLY PROGRESS
REPORTS AND QUARTERLY BRIEFINGS
ARE PROVIDED TO THE LEGISLATURE
HOWEVER THE HISTORY OF THE
PROJECT SHOWS THAT THAT IS NOT
ENOUGH ONE OPTION IS MONTHLY
OVERSIGHT MEETINGS BETWEEN
OUR OFFICE THE PROJECT THE
DEPARTMENT OF TECHNOLOGY AND
OTHER RELEVANT PARTIES TO REVIEW
MONTHLY OVERSIGHT REPORTS FROM
THE DEPARTMENT OF TECHNOLOGY
AND INDEPENDENT VERIFICATION
AND VALIDATION STAFF THOSE
ARE FOLKS THAT FOCUS ON THE
TECHNICAL ASPECTS OF THE PROJECT
ANOTHER OPTION WOULD BE TO
REQUEST THE PARTICIPATION OF
THE STATE AUDITOR TO ANNUALLY
EVALUATE WHETHER THE PROJECT
IS MAKING SUFFICIENT PROGRESS
TOWARDS COMPLETION ACCORDING
TO THE BASELINE THAT'S IN THE
LATEST SPR AND LASTLY THE
LEGISLATURE COULD DIRECT THE
PROJECT TO IMPROVE THE LEVEL
OF DETAIL IN ITS REPORTING SUCH
AS BY INCLUDING MEASUREMENTS
OF PROJECT COST QUALITY AND
SCHEDULE FROM THE PROJECTS
INDEPENDENT ADVISER IN SOME THE
ADMINISTRATION'S PROJECT PLAN
LOOKS PROMISING BUT THIS IS
ONE OF THE COSTLIEST AND MOST
COMPLEX PROJECTS IN THE STATE'S
IT PORTFOLIO THE GOVERNOR'S MAY
REVISION PROPOSAL PRESENTS AN
OPPORTUNITY FOR THE LEGISLATURE
TO INCREASE ITS INVOLVEMENT IN
AN OVERSIGHT OF THIS PROJECT I'M
HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS
THANK YOU DEPARTMENTS ANY
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS AND ON IT
BECAUSE YOU WITH THE DEPARTMENT
OF FINANCE -- JUST A FEW
NOTES IN RESPONSE THE ILLEGALS
COMMENTS SO -- FEW MINISTRATION
SHARES THE MUTUAL GOALS RELATED
TO WORKING TOWARDS SUCCESS
AND SUSTAINABILITY OF THE
PROJECT -- WE WOULD NOTE THAT
WE DO BELIEVE THAT THE FUNDING
HELD IN PROVISIONAL LANGUAGE
AS PART OF THE MAY REVISION
IT'S AN APPROPRIATE AMOUNT
-- BASED ON PROJECT SPENDING
AND PROJECTIONS WE WOULD ALSO
NOTE THAT THERE IS SIGNIFICANT
EXISTING REPORTING THAT THE
PROJECT CURRENTLY PROVIDES AND
SO WE'RE ALSO HAPPY TO WORK
WITH A LEÓN THE LEGISLATURE
TO THINK THROUGH WAYS TO
IMPROVE THE EXISTING REPORTING
EFFORTS AS WELL AND THEN LAST
BUT NOT LEAST REGARDING ANY
ADDITIONAL STATUTORY CHANGES
ARE PROVISIONAL IN WHICH -- WE
CAN'T COMMIT TO ANY CHANGES AT
THIS TIME BUT WE DO LOOK FORWARD
TO DISCUSSING AND COMING WEEKS
THANK YOU I'D LIKE TO TURN
OVER TO CENTER ROTH I KNOW
THANK YOU MEASURE QUESTIONS
HOW MUCH SHERMAN AND I'M
SORRY I MISSED YOU KNOW IT WAS
PRESENTATION IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU
MAY HAVE COVERED SOME OF THE
SO YOU FEEL FREE TO YELL AT ME
AND I'LL MOVE ON TO THE NEXT
ONE -- HOW MUCH INTERACTION
ARE YOU HAVING WITH CELTIC WITH
THE DEPARTMENT OF TECHNOLOGY ON
THIS PROJECT I'LL GIVE YOU
MY BACKGROUND YOU KNOW I'VE
SURE IT'S OF FOR FOR SIX YEARS
UNFORTUNATELY I HAD --
THE TWENTY FIRST CENTURY PROJECT
I HAD FISCO AND THERE
PROBABLY WERE OTHER ONES
AND SO MY OF TREPIDATION
IS BEYOND MEASURE HERE
SO BERMAN OF TECHNOLOGY --
THEY AN INTEGRAL PART OF THIS
PROCESS SO USING THAT PROJECT
LIFECYCLE CORRECT YEAH WE'VE
GONE THROUGH THE PROJECT LIFE
CYCLE PROCESS THERE INVOLVED
LITERALLY ON A WEEKLY BASIS
WE WORK CLOSELY WITH THEM THE
SPECIAL PROJECT REPORT THAT
OUTLINES THIS APPROACH WAS
CAREFULLY WORK THROUGH THIS
WAS NOT SOMETHING THE PROJECT
CREATED AND THEN HANDED OVER
THE PARCHMENT TECHNOLOGY WE
WORK CLOSELY WITH THEM TO MAKE
SURE THAT WE WERE ADDRESSING
CONCERNS THAT THEY HAD -- AS
THEY MONITOR THIS FROM THE SAME
PERSPECTIVE ONE OF THE PROBLEMS
IS THAT RECALLS BEEN A LONG
TIME IN THE PAST -- HAD TO DO
WAS VENDOR SELECTION AND THE
ABILITY TO PROPERLY VET VENDORS
AND TO TO TO DETERMINE WHETHER
VENDORS HAD A PRIOR TRACK
RECORD THAT WAS POSITIVE AS
OPPOSED TO NEGATIVE IN FACT
INS AT LEAST ONE CASE --
THE VENDORS HAD NEGATIVE
TRACK RECORDS I'D SURE YOU'RE
FAMILIAR WITH ALL THIS INDEED
IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE
OF THE VENDORS AND EXTEND
THEIR NUMEROUS HAVE THEY
OR ANY OF THEM HAD EXPERIENCE
ON PRAYER SUCCESSFUL PROJECTS
IN OTHER STATES YES ABSOLUTELY
I I I KNOW THIS INSTANCE
THAT YOU'RE REFERRING TO
AND OBVIOUSLY IT'S A IT'S A
COMMON ONE WE BELIEVE THAT WE
WERE ABLE TO GO THROUGH THE
-- THE PROCESS FOR PROCUREMENT
SENATE GOOD WAY WE BELIEVE THAT
THE VENDORS ARE VERY STRONG
AND CAPABLE HAVING DELIVERED
OTHER LARGE COMPLEX PROJECTS
ALSO WORKING ON HEATHER C. WES
PROJECTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY HE
SAID THEY WERE FAMILIAR WITH
THEY'VE WORKED ON PROJECTS
LIKE THIS HAVING TO DO WITH THE
SOCIAL SERVICES ABSOLUTELY I'M
THE OTHER PROBLEMS THAT WE SAW
AND I THOUGHT THERE WAS A SORT
OF A STATE POLICY AGAINST THESE
ALL IN ALL INCOME ENCOMPASSING
ROGER X. ON A GO FORWARD BASIS
AND THAT THE DECISION HAD
BEEN MADE BY CALTECH TO
OUR DEPARTMENT TECHNOLOGY TO
BREAK UP PROJECTS INTO CHUNKS
SO OF ONE FAILED IT WAS A
FIFTY MILLION DOLLAR FAILURE
AS OPPOSED TO A ONE POINT FIVE
BILLION DOLLAR FAILURE AND I'M
THINKING ABOUT THE TWENTY FIRST
CENTURY PROJECT AS OPPOSED
TO I GUESS THIS GAL ALTHOUGH
THERE'S SOME DEBATE ON THAT BUT
AT LEAST THAT WAS IN CHUNKS
AND YET THIS IS GOING TO BE
AN ALL IN EVERYBODY AT ONCE
FIFTY EIGHT COUNTIES WHICH
IS PROBABLY EVEN MORE COMPLEX
THAN JUST WORKING WITH STATE
DEPARTMENTS AND AGENCIES ISN'T
IT -- I DON'T
KNOW IF I'LL ANSWER THAT LAST
PIECE OF IT CERTAINLY COMPLEX
SO THAT THERE'S NOT A POLICY
ON TAKING THE AGILE APPROACH
IT'S CERTAINLY SOMETHING WE
LOOK AT PROJECT BY PROJECT
WE WERE CERTAINLY STRONGLY
ENCOURAGING IT BACK ABOUT FOUR
FIVE OR SIX WE HAVE WHATEVER
THE LAST TIME WAS I WAS TOUCHING
THESE THINGS ENCOURAGING THAT
BECAUSE YOU KNOW THERE'S NO
TESTING REALLY AND SINGLE LIP
TO SWITCHING WHEN YOU FLIP THE
SWITCH ON A BIG PROJECT AND IT
DOESN'T WORK THEN YOU'RE ON THE
FRONT PAGE OF THE SAXBY IN THE
LA TIMES YEP SO WE DID ACTUALLY
START THIS PROJECT LONG AGO
AND THAT AGILE METHODOLOGY WE
RAN INTO A FEW PROBLEMS -- ONE
THE STATE'S ABILITY TO BE A
SYSTEM INTEGRATOR SOMETHING THIS
LARGE AND COMPLEX WITH THAT MANY
VENDORS AND AND WHERE WE LANDED
WITH THOSE LESSONS LEARNED IS
IS A BIT OF A HYBRID APPROACH
TO TRY TO GET SOME OF THOSE
BENEFITS THAT YOU'RE SPEAKING
TO SO THAT THE ALL AT ONCE
ROLL OUT WITH SPEAKING TO THE
IMPLEMENTATION BUT WHAT YOU'RE
SPEAKING TO IS PART OF WHY
WE'RE DOING OF VERSION ONE AND
VERSION TWO AND THAT AS QUICKLY
AS POSSIBLE WE WANT TO GET THE
NEW FUNCTIONALITY IN THE HANDS
OF THE COUNTY WORKERS THAT'S
WHAT VERSION ONE DOES ADDITIONAL
FUNCTIONALITY TO A COMPLY WITH
THE WEST COMES IN ADDITION TO
AND THE THE REASON THAT'S THOSE
BIGGER CHUNKS INSTEAD OF SMALLER
ONES IS THE THE INTRICATE
INTERWEAVING OF THOSE DIFFERENT
MODULES AND COMPONENTS AND SO
WHEN WE WORKED WITH THE COUNTY
WELFARE WORKERS AND THE --
CWPA IN TALKING THROUGH THAT
APPROACH OF ITERATIVE DELIVERY
IT WASN'T THE USER'S DESIRE
AND THAT'S REALLY THE POINT
ABOUT JEALOUS MEDIAN THE USERS
WHERE THEY ARE AND GETTING
THEM THE FUNCTIONALITY FOR THEM
THEY EXIST IN THOSE MODULES
ALL AT ONCE DELIVERING SMALL
COMPONENTS AND HAVING TO LIVE
ACROSS DIFFERENT SYSTEMS CREATED
ISSUES FOR THEM WHERE THEY
WERE LOSING TRACK OF WHERE
DIFFERENT INFORMATION WAS WHERE
WAS THIS FAMILY BEING TRACKED
AND SO IN PARTNERSHIP WITH
THE COUNTY AND TRIBAL PARTNERS
THIS WAS THE APPROACH THAT WE
CAME UP WITH THAT ALLOWS THAT
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY TO THE
POINT ABOUT TESTING BECAUSE
WE FULLY AGREE THAT'S CRITICAL
WHAT WE DO IS JUST LIKE IN AN
AGILE MODULE I SPOKE TO THE
MILESTONES THAT WE'RE USING NOW
WITH QUANTIFIABLE VALUE THIS
IS THIS IS A USABLE INCREMENTS
WELL WE'RE NOT PUTTING IT OUT
THERE FOR WORKERS TO USE IN
THE FIELD BECAUSE OF THOSE
COMPLEXITIES WE DO ACTUALLY
DELIVER IT TO OUR PARTNERS FOR
TESTING IN THE SANDBOX WHERE
THEY ACTUALLY USE THAT AS THEY
WOULD IN THE FIELD IDENTIFY
ISSUES SO THAT WE CAN MAKE THOSE
FIXES BEFORE IT GETS ROLLED
OUT SO WE ARE STILL GETTING
THAT BENEFIT OF REAL USER INPUT
AND TESTING INCREMENTALLY AS
WE MOVE ALONG THE WAY WELL I
WILL SAY THAT IN THE OLD DAYS
BECAUSE IT WAS THE OLD DAYS
ONE OF THE PROBLEMS WAS WILL
THE STATE WAS LISTENING
MORE THAN PROBABLY IT SHOULD TO
USER AND USER INPUT AND INSTEAD
OF DESIGNING A SYSTEM THAT
WORKS IN IN THESE PREPARATIONS
WHICH I ADMIT IS NOT YOU KNOW
AGES HHS --
WE TRIED TO DESIGN A SYSTEM
FOR THE USERS AND THAT WAS
THE PROBLEM SO LET ME ASK ONE
FINAL QUESTION I DON'T WANT
TO DOMINATE THE QUESTIONS --
WHEN THIS SYSTEM IS ROLLED OUT
IN WHAT DID YOU CAUGHT A COLD
CHUNK ONE WHAT IS IT VERSION ONE
VERSION ONE -- AND
AND EVERYBODY HAS ACCESS TO IT
WHAT HAPPENS IF IT DOESN'T WORK
IS IT IS THERE GOING TO BE A
BACKUP SYSTEM RUNNING WELL
THE EXISTING SYSTEM WOULDN'T
BE RETIRED -- UNTIL WE HAD IT
STABILIZATION PERIOD TO ENSURE
THAT IT'S WORKING SO YOU HAVE
DUAL INPUT THEN NOW THAT WE
WERE ABLE IT WOULD REQUIRE US
TO GO BACK IT WOULD BE A BIG
DEAL AND THAT'S WHY WE'VE BUILT
AND ONE THE TESTING AS WE GO
RIGHT SO WHEN WE GO LIVE NOT
ONLY WILL WE HAVE TESTED EACH
FUNCTIONALITY INDEPENDENTLY WE
ALSO -- I PROJECTS ARE JUST
GONNA KILL MAKES THAT FORGOTTEN
THE TERM WE USE BUT WE HAVE
LONG TERM TESTING AS WELL SO
NOT JUST THE INDIVIDUAL BUT A
CROSS EACH MILESTONE AS WE BUILD
IT WE TEST THE INTERACTIONS
BETWEEN THEM AND I MEAN WE FROM
A SYSTEM PERSPECTIVE THE COUNTY
USERS DIRECTLY TO USE IT AS THEY
WOULD SO WE'VE DONE ALL OF THAT
ALONG THE WAY AS WE GO TO ENSURE
THAT WE'VE IDENTIFIED ANY GAPS
AND THEN ADDITIONALLY WITH THE
ROLLOUT THE TRAINING THAT GOES
WITH THAT THE MONITORING OF THE
FULL SYSTEM TESTING WE'VE BUILT
IN SEVERAL MONTHS AS PART OF THE
IMPLEMENTATION ONCE THAT BUILD
IS DONE WE DON'T FINISH AND THE
NEXT DAY IMPLEMENTED WE'VE GOT
A PERIOD FOR TRAINING TESTING
AND REVIEW ALL OF WHICH BEFORE
THAT ACTUAL GOAL LIFE HAPPENS
AND AGAIN THIS COMMONALITY AMONG
THE FIFTY EIGHT COUNTIES WERE
NOT DESIGNING SPECIAL THINGS
FOR FOR DIFFERENT COUNTIES
THAT'S CORRECT AND THEN JUST
ONE FINAL TIME YOU MENTION
THIS IN YOUR PRESENTATION
THE REASON WHY WE DIDN'T PICK
THREE COUNTIES OR FOR COUNTIES
AND SAY HERE HERE'S THE SYSTEM
BEFORE YOU TAKE THE OTHER ONE
DOWN LET'S SEE HOW IT WORKS
IS AT BECAUSE WHEN YOU HAVE
WHEN YOU DO THAT YOU HAVE TO
BE WORKING INTO SYSTEMS AND
SO THE DATA FOR THOSE THAT ARE
WORKING IN THE NEW SYSTEM WILL
ONLY BE THERE AND THE FOLKS WHO
ARE WORKING IN THE OLD SYSTEM
WON'T BE ABLE TO SEE THAT IN
THEIR SYSTEM AND SO THEREFORE
IF AN INDIVIDUAL CROSS COUNTY
LINES THE CARE OF THE CASE
WORKERS NOT GONNA KNOW WHERE TO
FIND THAT INFORMATION AND YOU'VE
TAKEN CARE OF THIS BY KEEPING
THE OLD SYSTEM UP AND RUNNING IN
CASE THERE'S A PROBLEM CORRECT
BUT WHAT I WILL SAY IS THAT
BECAUSE OF THE RISK OF THAT
STATEWIDE ROLLOUT WE ARE DOING
A PRODUCTION PILOT WHERE A
HANDFUL OF COUNTIES WILL BE DULY
ENTRAIN VERY BURDENSOME BUT
BUT FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME
THEY WILL LIVE IN BOTH SYSTEMS
THEY WILL IMPORT ALL OF THE
DATA INTO BOTH SYSTEMS SO THAT
THEY DON'T CREATE THAT RISK TO
CHILD WELFARE BUT THEY ARE ABLE
TO FUNCTIONALLY IN PRODUCTION
UTILIZE THE NEW SYSTEM AND
IDENTIFY ANYTHING WE'VE MISSED
BEFORE WE GO STATEWIDE WELL
WE CAN ALWAYS CHECK WITH THE
CONTROLLER TO SEE OTHER WORKS
OUT BECAUSE I'M SURE THEY'RE
STILL DOING THE SAME THING
OVER THERE UNLESS THINGS HAVE
CHANGED -- AND IT'S A ONE POINT
SEVEN BILLION DOLLAR PROJECT
THAT'S THE TOTAL OVER THE
COURSE OF THE WHOLE PROJECT
AND THAT'S HOW MANY YEARS SO
-- THAT WILL END UP BEING
FOURTEEN YEARS OUT OF A HIGHER
-- HI I WE ARE COMMITTED TO
STICKING TO THESE TIMELINE
ANYWAY THAT'S ENOUGH
QUESTIONS FOR ME -- GOOD LUCK
-- SINCE I ONLY HAVE EIGHTEEN
MONTHS LEFT I'M SURE THERE I
WON'T GET TO SEE MUCH OF THIS
BUT -- I'LL BE READING ABOUT YOU
HOPEFULLY NOT IN THE NEWSPAPER
THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR THANK
YOU SENATOR THANK YOU SENATOR
-- ADAM I KNOW THE DEPARTMENT
OF FINANCE RESPONDED TO SOME
OF THE THE RECOMMENDATIONS
ELIA PUT FORTH AND YOU KNOW
MENTIONING THAT YOU DON'T
BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE AN
INCREASE IN THE WITH HOLDEN --
YOU WILL PERHAPS THINK THROUGH
EXISTING REPORTING FRAME WORKING
IN FURTHER COLLABORATE THERE
BUT ADAM HE'S BECOME THE OTHER
RECOMMENDATION JUST FOR THOUGHTS
THERE ON MONTHLY OVERSIGHT
MEETINGS THE ANNUAL AUDITS
AND THE CLEARLY DEFINING THE
GOALS AND THE COMPLETION SUCCESS
YEAH WE WELCOME THE CONVERSATION
TO WORK THROUGH THOSE ITEMS
ABSOLUTELY YOU KNOW I I CAME IN
-- JUST SHORT OF A YEAR AGO AS
DIRECTOR AND ONE OF THE THINGS
I FOCUSED ON MOST IN PREPARATION
FOR S. B. R. SIX AND HAVING
THIS BASELINE THAT WE CANNOT
TRACK TWO IS THE ACCOUNTABILITY
HOW DO WE RUNNING THE PROJECT
AND ALL OF YOU IS OVERSIGHT
HAVE VISIBILITY THAT THIS IS
ACTUALLY WORKING RIGHT GIVEN
THAT YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH THIS
TOO MANY TIMES ON THIS PROJECT
AND OTHERS HOW CAN WE GIVE YOU
THAT CONFIDENCE HOW CAN I HAVE
THAT CONFIDENCE TO SIT HERE AND
SO I THINK IN TERMS OF TALKING
ABOUT WHAT'S IN THOSE REPORTS
WE WELCOME THAT CONVERSATION TO
TAKE THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE'VE
MADE ON THE ABILITY FOR ALL OF
US TO MONITOR THAT MAKING SURE
THOSE ARE BUILT INTO THE REPORTS
WE ALREADY PROVIDE REGULAR
REPORTING HAPPY TO TALK ABOUT
IT AND MEDIAN IS A HELPFUL WAY
TO DO THAT HAPPY TO LOOK AT THE
EXISTING LANGUAGE TO ENHANCE
DEFINITIONS WE JUST WANNA WE
WANT TO DO IT COLLABORATIVELY
SO WE MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE
DEFINING IN A WAY THAT ALIGNS
WITH WHAT WE'VE MAPPED OUT AND
NOT REQUIRING CHANGES BUT STILL
IN A WAY THAT GIVES YOU WHAT
YOU NEED FOR YOUR ROLE YES SIR
LET ME LET ME JUST
ASK MAKE A REQUEST THE
ONE THING THAT FRUSTRATED ME
IN LOOKING AT ALL THESE IT
PROJECTS THAT I CAN'T EVEN
REMEMBER SOME OF THEM I'M
SURE IS I WOULD ALWAYS ASK
INCLUDING LIKE WE HAD THE STATE
BAR -- WHAT WHAT WHAT IS
THE AFTER ACTION REPORTS SAY
BECAUSE I WANT TO READ AND
WHEN I ASKED THAT QUESTION
I GOT THESE BLANK LOOKS
YOU KNOW I COME OUT OF THE
MILITARY IF YOU DO IT IF WE
SPEND ONE POINT SEVEN BILLION
DOLLARS AT THE END OF IT OR
IF IT TERMINATES FOR THE AND
FOR SOME UNFORTUNATE REASON
SOMEBODY HAS TO DO A REPORT
TO EXPLAIN WHAT WENT WRONG WE
DON'T DO THAT VERY WELL IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND SO I'M
HOPING ALTHOUGH I WILL BE HERE
I'M HOPING THAT SOMEONE TRACKS
THAT AND TRIES TO TRACK THE
PROBLEMS THAT OCCURRED DURING
THE COURSE OF THIS PROJECT AND
WRITES IT DOWN SOMEWHERE BECAUSE
THE OTHER THING WE FOUND WITH
THE TWENTY FIRST CENTURY PROJECT
IS PEOPLE COME AND GO AND SO
WHEN YOU ASK SOMEONE WHY DID
THIS HAPPEN SOMEONE SITTING
RIGHT WHERE YOU WERE OR ARE
THEY SAID -- I WASN'T HERE
WELL WHO IS HERE WELL I DON'T
REMEMBER AND THAT'S A PROBLEM
ON PROJECTS AS LARGE WHEN WE'RE
SPENDING THIS MUCH MONEY WE
OUGHT TO BE ABLE TO TRACK WHAT
WENT WRONG WHAT WE COULD DO
BETTER IN THE I. T. ARENA AND
MAYBE THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT
TECHNOLOGY THEY'VE GOT GREAT
LEADERSHIP AND HAVE HAD OVER
THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS MAYBE
THEY'VE GOT THAT NAILED DOWN BUT

YOU -- ALIONA COMMENT RYAN
MILLER ELIA WE HAVE NO CONCERNS
WITH THIS PROPOSAL PERMITTED
FINANCE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
ANNA NOTHING FURTHER TO ADD
LOOKING FURTHER WE'RE
GONNA MOVE ON -- STATION
NUMBER TWO ONE FOUR THAT
ITEM OF THANK YOU FOR
SORRY I COULD AFTERNOON MADAM
CHAIR MEMBERS OF BRENDAN
MCCARTHY DEPUTY SECRETARY FOR
PROGRAMMING FISCAL AFFAIRS WITH
THE CALLAGY CHEST I'M PRESENTING
THE YOUNG HEALTH AND HUMAN
SERVICES INNOVATION ACCELERATOR
INITIATIVE THIS IS A TEN MILLION
DOLLAR GENERAL FUND ONE TIME
INVESTMENT -- THAT WE ARE
PROPOSING THE PROBLEM THAT WE'RE
TRYING TO ADDRESS WITH THIS
IS THAT THERE ARE INNOVATIONS
THAT HAPPENED IN THE HEALTHCARE
WORLD FOR EXAMPLE NEW DRUGS OR
NEW DEVICES OR NEW MODELS OF
CARE AND OFTEN TIMES THEY ARE
SORT OF SLOW TO TRICKLE INTO
THE SAFETY NET SYSTEM MEETING
OUR PUBLIC HOSPITAL SYSTEM OUR
CLINICS AND SO -- THE FACT THAT
THESE NEW ADVANCEMENTS ARE SLOW
TO GET THERE WE WORRY WIDENS
DISPARITIES AND INEQUITIES
IN THE SYSTEM -- AND SO WHAT
WE'RE PROPOSING HERE IS TO
MAKE USE THIS INVESTMENT TO
TRANSLATE NEW RESEARCH AND
INNOVATION THAT IS HAPPENING
INTO PRACTICE IN THE SYSTEM
AND ALSO TO SCALE UP EFFORTS
SO FOR EXAMPLE THERE MAY BE A
VERY GOOD PILOT PROJECT THAT
HAPPENED SOMEWHERE BUT IT'S VERY
SMALL HOW CAN WE EXPANDED
SO YOU THE USE OF WHAT COMES
OUT OF A PILOT MORE BROADLY IN
THE SAFETY NET SYSTEM THAT'S
WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO AND SO
AS I SAID IT'S A TEN MILLION
DOLLAR TOTAL GENERAL FUND THERE
WAS ONE MILLION DOLLARS IN THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET SO THIS WOULD
BE AT THE MAY REVISE FOR ADDING
ANOTHER NINE MILLION DOLLARS --
TO START THIS EFFORT -- WHAT
WE WOULD HOPE TO DO IS PARTNER
WITH OUTSIDE ENTITIES SUCH AS
PHILANTHROPY I THE IDEA BRING
THAT ONE WE COULD POTENTIALLY
LEVERAGE OUTSIDE FUNDING SOURCES
TO MAKE THE STATE INVESTMENT
GO FARTHER BUT ALSO BRING IN
EXPERTISE FROM PHILANTHROPIC
PARTNERS ABOUT NEW MODELS OF
CARE NEW PRACTICES IN THE HEALTH
CARE SYSTEM THAT THEN COULD
BE DISSEMINATED MORE WIDELY
WE ANTICIPATE IDENTIFYING
SOME KEY AREAS TO LOOK AT FOR
EXAMPLE -- DIABETES MORBIDITY
MORTALITY OR -- MATERNAL AND
INFANT HEALTH OUTCOMES -- AND
THEN TO TO LOOK FOR PROJECTS AND
OR -- MODELS A CARROT CENTER
THAT WE CAN USE TO ADDRESS
THOSE PARTICULARLY -- AS THEY
HAVE DISPARATE IMPACTS ON
OUR CAR SAFETY NET POPULATION
-- SO THAT THAT'S IT IN A
NUTSHELL THE PROPOSAL AND
HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS
THANK YOU WILLIAM HI
WHILE THE SORTS OF CHALLENGES
THAT THE ADMINISTRATION --
SPEAKING TO AND THAT WERE LAID
OUT IN THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET
SUMMARY MAY MERIT CONSIDERATION
-- OUR INITIAL -- UNDERSTANDING
WAS THAT THE ADMINISTRATION WAS
NOT PLANNING TO SUBMIT A BCP IN
SUPPORT OF THE PROPOSAL -- SO WE
WROTE AN ANALYSIS THAT -- LISTED
A NUMBER OF QUESTIONS THAT WE
UNDERSTAND THE ADMINISTRATION'S
WORKING ON RESPONDING -- BUT
IN PARTICULAR I THINK WE'RE
LOOKING FOR -- YOU KNOW AT
LEAST TO -- THIS DEMONSTRATION
OF HOW THE FUNDING WOULD BE
USED HOW IT'S NOT DUPLICATIVE
OF OTHER EFFORTS -- WITHIN
A STATE GOVERNMENT -- WHY THE
AGENCY IS THE RIGHT PLACE FOR
THIS -- WE WE UNDERSTAND --
AS OF THIS MORNING THAT THE
ADMINISTRATION IS PLANNING TO
FOLLOW UP WITH SOME WRITTEN
MATERIALS FOR LEGISLATURE SO WE
WILL EVALUATE THOSE WHEN THEY
BECOME AVAILABLE ENOUGH KATE
THE SUB COMMITTEE -- -- SHOULD
THE CHANGE OUR ASSESSMENT --
BUT I THINK THE BOTTOM LINE IS
THAT ABSENT A FULL JUSTIFICATION
AND AND CERTAINLY IN LIGHT OF
OUR OFFICES ASSESSMENT OF THE
OVERALL BUDGET CONDITION BEING
WORSE THAN -- THAT WHICH WAS
ESTIMATED IN THE MAY REVISION
WE WOULD RECOMMEND REJECTING
THIS PROPOSAL FROM THE FINANCE
ANY FURTHER COMMENTS I'M
FOR NOTHING FURTHER AGAIN
GREAT THANK YOU THANK YOU --
RENDON YES THANKS SO MUCH
BERNIE YEAH I MEAN I HAVE A LOT
OF CONCERNS WITH THIS I MEAN
IT'S YOU KNOW YOU MENTIONED
MODELS OF CARE TO ADDRESS SOME
OF THESE DISPARITIES IN THE
PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS WE'VE
BEEN LISTENING TO A LOT OF
PROPOSALS AND INVESTMENTS IN A
LOT OF PROGRAMMING FROM VARIOUS
DEPARTMENTS THAT ARE LOOKING
TO ADDRESSES THE PARTICULAR
PROPOSALS ON EXTENDING THE
POSTPARTUM I'M BENEFITS UP TO
A FULL YEAR PROPOSALS ON I'M
BRINGING ACCESS TO DO LIST TO
THE COMMUNITY REALLY PROPOSALS
THAT ARE BROUGHT TO US BECAUSE
THERE'S BEEN RESEARCH DONE ON
THESE ALREADY THAT THESE ARE
MODELS OF CARE THAT IN FACT DO
ADDRESS THE DISPARITIES THAT WE
SEE ANY SCENE AND A LOT OF THE
AREAS THAT YOU BROUGHT UP SOME
CONCERN AS TO WHY NOT FURTHER
INVEST TEN MILLION DOLLARS IN
THE PROGRAMS THAT WE'VE ALREADY
CREATED IN PROGRAMS THAT WE'VE
SEEN OUR SUCCESSFUL IN MY
CREATE A WHOLE NEW INITIATIVE
TO ADDRESS SOME OF THESE ISSUES
ESPECIALLY IN THE TIME THAT WE
ARE IN THE DEFICIT TEN MILLION
DOLLARS MAYBE NOT A LOT FOR THE
FOURTH LARGEST ECONOMY IN THE
WORLD BUT TEN MILLION DOLLARS
FROM MY DISTRICT IS A LOT OF
MONEY -- THAT WOULD BE DIRECTLY
GO TO ART BURKE CONSTITUENTS
IN CALIFORNIA AND SO I'M JUST
CONCERNED AS TO I'M I'M NOT
SEEING THE DIFFERENCE OF IN
BY INVESTING IN THIS PURSES
OTHER DEPARTMENTS AND PROGRAMS
ALREADY EXIST IS NECESSARY
THAT'S WHERE I'M AT RIGHT NOW --
CENTER EGGMAN PART TO GO WE
JUST CONCUR -- IT'S A IT'S
A GREAT IDEA WHEN TIMES ARE
FLUSH I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S SUCH
A GREAT IDEA WHEN POOR ON A
DOWNTURN AND WILL BE POTENTIALLY
LOOKING AT CUTTING BACK ON
OUR CORE PROGRAM SO I DON'T
KNOW IF IT'S TIME TO TO THINK
ABOUT INNOVATION AT THIS TIME
AND IF YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO
RESPOND TO THAT -- CERTAINLY
-- MADAM CHAIR EYES AND WE
SHARE THE THE SUBCOMMITTEE'S
CONCERN ABOUT THE STATE'S
FISCAL SITUATION THAT'S WHY
WE PROPOSE HERE WHAT WE THINK
IS A MODEST INVESTMENT -- HERE
BUT UNDERSTAND THAT THE FISCAL
SITUATION IN THE HARD DECISIONS
THAT LIE AHEAD -- AND CERTAINLY
WE DO NOT WANT TO DUPLICATE
EXISTING EFFORTS OF OUR PROGRAMS
LIKE THE BLACK INFANT HEALTH
PROGRAM AND OTHER PROGRAMS THAT
YOU COULD WORK IT'S ME WE'RE
JUST MORE THINKING ABOUT ARE
THERE THINGS OUT THERE THAT
ARE STATE PROGRAMS ARE SAFE
NO PROVIDERS AREN'T AWARE OF
AND ARE TAKING UP BECAUSE IT'S
NEW INNOVATIONS THAT HAVEN'T
TRICKLED IN YET BUT IT'S NOT OUR
INTENT TO DUPLICATE DUPLICATE
THE WORK OF THOSE IMPORTANT
PROGRAM IS MORE TO HELP THOSE
PROGRAMS BY EXPANDING THE TOOLS
AVAILABLE IN THE SAFETY NET
SYSTEM THANK YOU SO MUCH NO
FURTHER QUESTIONS WE'RE GONNA
HOLD THE AND I'M OPEN ONE
FISHING NUMBER THREE THINK ABOUT
HELLO AND MAY I START YEAH
OKAY -- THANK YOU -- CHAIR
MADAM CHAIR AND HONORABLE
COMMITTEE I'M KATHERINE LEE
STERILE I'M THE DIRECTOR
OF THE OFFICE OF YOUTH AND
COMMUNITY RESTORATION I'M
HERE TO SPEAK ABOUT ISSUE
THREE PROGRESS REVIEW HEARING
TECHNICAL CLARIFICATION
AS YOU ARE AWARE THE SECURITIES
TREATMENT FACILITIES -- ARE
THE MOST RESTRICTIVE SETTINGS
THAT ARE BEING -- CREATED
FOR THE DJJ -- INTO INTENSE
IN ANTICIPATION OF THE DJJ
CLOSURE AND THE REALIGNMENT
OF YOUTH WHO COMMIT THE MOST
SERIOUS LEAVE A CRIMINAL
OFFENSES TO THE COUNTIES
IN FACT ALL COUNTIES ARE USING
THEIR JUVENILE HALLS AS THEIR
DESIGNATED SECURE USE TREATMENT
FACILITIES IN MOST CASES THESE
ARE SMALL CARCERAL SETTINGS
WHERE YOUTH FOURTEEN TO TWENTY
FIVE LIVE HAVE MEALS ATTEND
SCHOOL AND DO RECREATION UNDER
WELFARE AND INSTITUTIONS CODE
SECTION EIGHT SEVEN FIVE A
JUDGE CAN DECIDE TO MOVE A
YOUNG PERSON FROM THE SECURITIES
TREATMENT FACILITY TO WHAT'S
CALLED A LESS RESTRICTIVE
PROGRAM IF THE YOUNG PERSON
HAS MADE SUBSTANTIAL PROGRESS
WITH THEIR REHABILITATION AND
IF THE PROGRAM IS CONSISTENT
WITH YOUTH REHABILITATION AND
COMMUNITY SAFETY THE STATUTE
PROVIDES THAT THE PURPOSE OF
A LESS RESTRICTIVE PROGRAM
IS TO FACILITATE THE SAFE
AND SUCCESSFUL INTEGRATION
OF THE YOUNG PERSON INTO
THE COMMUNITY THIS IS ALSO
CONSISTENT WITH RESEARCH AND
DATA THAT ALIGNS WITH ADOLESCENT
BRAIN DEVELOPMENT AND SUPPORTS
TREATING YOU DIFFERENTLY
THAN ADULTS WHEN IT COMES TO
ACCOUNTABILITY AND CARCERAL
PRACTICES EXAMPLES OF LESS
RESTRICTIVE PROGRAMS ARE HALFWAY
HOUSES SUCH AS THOSE USED BY
AMITY AN A. R. C. THE ANTI
RECIDIVISM COALITION A CAMP
RANCH A COMMUNITY RESIDENTIAL
OR SERVICE PROGRAMS SUCH AS PINE
GROVE YOUTH CONSERVATION CAMP
AND THE CALIFORNIA CONSERVATION
CORPS -- THROUGHOUT THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA WELFARE AND
INSTITUTIONS CODE EIGHT SEVEN
FIVE ALSO PROVIDES THAT ALL
YOUNG PEOPLE WHO HAVE ARE
COMMITTED TO AN S. Y. T. F. COME
BEFORE A JUDGE EVERY SIX MONTHS
FOR A PROGRESS REVIEW AT EACH
OF THOSE REVIEW HEARINGS THE
JUDGE HEARS EVIDENCE FROM THE
PROBATION DEPARTMENT BEHAVIORAL
HEALTH EDUCATION SPECIALIST AND
OTHERS TO EVALUATE THE PROGRESS
ON THE BASIS OF THIS INFORMATION
THE JUDGE CAN KEEP THE BASELINE
COMMITMENT OR THE JUDGE CAN
OFFER A DEVIATION FROM THAT
COMMITMENT UP TO SIX MONTHS
THAT'S IT EVERY SIX MONTHS
PROGRESS REVIEW THE THIS
REDUCTION IS BEYOND THE DAY FOR
DAY CREDIT THAT THE YOUTH GETS
FOR BEING AND NOT COMMITTED
-- CARCERAL SETTING IT'S AN
INCENTIVIZE IT'S AN INCENTIVE
FOR USED TO DO WELL AND THEN
GET TIME OFF THEIR BASELINE
COMMITMENT THIS TRAILER BILL
CLARIFIES THAT IF THE YOUNG
PERSON IS PLACED IN A LESS
RESTRICTIVE SETTING THE JUDGE
WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE THE SIX
MONTH REVIEW HEARINGS AND THE
JUDGE WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE
DISCRETION TO REDUCE THEIR
BASELINE COMMITMENT UP TO SIX
MONTHS AS INDICATED THE CURRENT
LANGUAGE -- OR MAYBE NOT
INDICATED BUT THE CURRENT
LANGUAGE IS THAT IS NOT EXPLICIT
AND SO THE -- TRAILER BILL
LANGUAGE -- IT INSERTS
-- INCLUDING ANY TERMS SPENT
IN A LESS RESTRICTIVE PROGRAM
PURSUANT TO SUBDIVISION F.
OF THE SEVEN FIVE THERE IS
CONFUSION AROUND THE STATE --
THERE ARE ATTORNEYS ADVISING
THEIR CLIENTS NOT TO GO INTO
A PINE GROVE SETTING OR A
CONSERVATION COURSE SETTING
BECAUSE THEN THEY WOULD NOT
BE ELIGIBLE FOR THOSE EARNED
INCENTIVIZE CREDIT OFF THEIR
BASELINE COMMITMENT -- THE END
BUT THAT'S NOT TRUE FOR THE
WHOLE STATE BECAUSE THERE'S
THERE ARE OTHER PARTS OF THE
STATE WHERE THE DEFENDERS AND
THE JUDGES AND THE STAKEHOLDERS
BELIEVE THAT IT DOES APPLY SO WE
ARE WANTING THIS TO BE A UNIFORM
APPLICATION AND WE THINK IT'S A
CLARIFICATION AND WE WOULD ASK
THAT IT BE SUPPORTED AND I'M OF
COURSE HERE FOR ANY QUESTIONS I
ALSO HAVE A LISA HEARTS WITH ME
AT COUNSEL FOR A Y. C. R. WHO
CAN ALSO ASSIST AS SHE DROPPED
TO ONE OF THE ORIGINAL MEMOS
THANK YOU DIRECTOR ILLEGALLY
COMING NO CONCERNS ABOUT FORMER
FINANCE AND NOTHING ELSE TO
ADD RIGHT NOW THANK YOU PERFECT
I DIRECTOR MEAN AND YOU KNOW
VERY SUPPORTIVE OF GIVING
CREDITS TO YOU WITH WHEN THEY'RE
DOING THEIR -- IN THE LESS

THANK YOU I
WELCOME H. KIND I'M UP
YOU MAY PROCEED WITH ISSUE ONE
HI GOOD GOOD AFTERNOON ON THE
SOLTANI DEPUTY DIRECTOR FOR
THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH CARE
ACCESS AND INFORMATION I'LL
BE PRESENTING ON TWO ITEMS
THE FIRST IS THE PROPOSAL
TO REALLOCATE FUNDS FOR THE
CALORIE XFORMS FOR FOR CALORIES
PHARMACEUTICAL DRUG PROCUREMENT
UNDER THIS PROPOSAL H. CAI
REQUESTS TRANSFER OF TWO MILLION
OF GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURE
AUTHORITY ORIGINALLY APPROVED
IN THE TWENTY TO TWENTY TWENTY
TWO BUDGET ACT FOR CAPITAL
INFRASTRUCTURE SECURITY FOR
REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH CLINICS
TO INSTEAD SUPPORT PROCUREMENT
OF MIFEPRISTONE OR MISOPROSTOL
THROUGH THE CALAR EXTRA TO
ENSURE CONTINUED ACCESS TO
THESE DRUGS FOR CALIFORNIANS
IN NEED OF A OF SAFE AND
EFFECTIVE MEDICATION ABORTION
THIS PROPOSAL IS RESPONSIVE TO
RECENT FEDERAL COURT ACTIONS
AND BUILD ON LAST YEAR'S GROUP
REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH PACKAGE
THROUGH SUPPORTING A STATE
LEVEL OR EMERGENCY STOCKPILE
THE RESOURCES WOULD SECURE
ENOUGH MEDICATIONS TO SUPPORT
MEDICATION ASSISTED ABORTIONS
IN THE STATE DURING A ONE YEAR
PERIOD INCLUDING BOTH A TWO
DRUG REGIMEN AND THE MISOPROSTOL
HOMELY REGIMENT LASTLY
I NOTE THAT THE STATE WOULD ONLY
USE THIS FUNDING TO STOCKPILE
MEDICATIONS SHOULD THERE BE
MARKET SIGNALS OF A SHORTAGE
OR DISRUPTION TO THE EXISTING
SUPPLY CHAIN -- AND THE FUNDS
WOULD BE USED TO PARKERSBURG
CARE EITHER MEDICATION
I'LL BE MOVING ON TO -- THE
SECOND ITEM WHICH IS THAT
THE CALAR EXTRA NALOXONE
ACCESS INITIATIVE -- BEFORE I
LAUNCH INTO THE SPECIFICS I
WANT TO BRIEFLY SET THE STAGE
-- AS MANY OF YOU ARE AWARE
CALIFORNIA HAS EXPERIENCED A
SHARP RISE IN OPIOID RELATED
DEATHS IN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT
VISITS DUE TO OVERDOSES LET'S
BEFORE YOU MOVE ON TO ISSUE
TOO I'M A TURN TO LA -- IF
THEY HAVE IN COMMON INITIAL ONE
DECENT COSTS INTEREST ONLY
-- NO CONCERNS WITH ISSUE ONE
TURN FINANCING INCOME ADJUSTED
ALSO PART FINANCING ADDITIONAL
COMMENTS THANK YOU OKAY
I GUESS I JUST LIKE TO ASK
AND NONE OF THAT THAT TWO
MILLION WAS ALREADY APPROVED
FOR FOR CLINICS CLINICS
EXPECTING THAT MONEY BECAUSE
WHAT WAS INITIALLY USED FOR
IT IT'S -- WE'VE ALREADY
GONE THROUGH ONE AWARD CYCLE
FOR THAT -- THAT THE CLINICS
-- AND --
WE -- SO IS IT ORIGINALLY A
TWENTY MILLION DOLLAR ALLOCATION
FOR THE CAPITAL INFRASTRUCTURE
SECURITY FUND -- EIGHT MILLION
HAS BEEN AWARDED TO TWENTY ONE
APPLICANTS FOR THE FIRST FIRST
ROUND OF GRANT MAKING AND
THERE'S A SO SO IT'S JUST READ
AT DIVERTING TO MILLION FROM
THE THE REMAINING FUNDS OKAY
BUT THAT'S TWO MILLION FOR A
POTENTIAL IF IF WE NEED IT RIGHT
YES IT WAS JUST A IN IN THE
MEANTIME DO WE KNOW IF THERE'S
CLINICS OUT THERE WAITING
FOR INFRASTRUCTURE FUNDING
THEY THOUGHT WAS POTENTIALLY
COMING TO THEM DOES NOT NOW
IF WE DIVERT TWO MILLION FOR
EFFORT FOR POTENTIAL USE US
REQUEST GOT CHRISTMANN -- GW
DRUCKER FOREIGN HEALTH CARE
ACCESS INFORMATION SO WE STILL
ANTICIPATE PLANS FOR A SECOND
CYCLES WE'RE ACTUALLY I ABLE TO
AWARD TO ALL APPLICANTS IN THE
FIRST ROUND JUST ABOUT EIGHT
MILLION -- IN ACROSS TWENTY ONES
SO WE'RE ACTUALLY GONNA REDOUBLE
OUR EFFORTS IN MARKETING --
FOR THAT SECOND CYCLE AND STILL
ALLOW FOR ROOM TO POSSIBLY
-- TRANSFER THE THE THE TWO
MILLION AND IN THE EVENT --
THAT -- WE NEED TO STOCKPILE
A MEDICATION ABORTION DRUGS SO
A GREAT QUESTION BUT WE WILL
WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THE SECOND
CYCLE -- AND AND WILL TRY TO
MEET THOSE NEEDS OF THIS CLINICS
OKAY BUT TO STAY APART THAT
ALLOCATION IT WON'T JUST BE
SWEPT BACK TO THE GENERAL FUND
THAT'S CORRECT HEY WE THINK WE
KNOW OBVIOUSLY ALIGNED WITH THE
SORT OF THE OVERALL A PRIORITY
FOR REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH ACCESS
INCLUDING MEDICATION PORTION
THANK YOU THANK YOU SO WE'RE
GONNA HOLD ADAM OPENED THEN ONE
ISSUE TO SURE
-- SO -- --
NALOXONE -- IS AN ESSENTIAL
TOOL AND IN COMBATING THE OPIOID
EPIDEMIC AND INCREASING ACCESS
TO THIS MEDICATION IS CRITICAL
-- COMPARED INJECTION FORMS
THE NASAL SPRAY FORMULATION
OF NALOXONE HAS BECOME POPULAR
DUE TO ITS EASE OF USE AND
EFFECTIVENESS AND ITS ABILITY TO
BE ADMINISTERED BY INDIVIDUALS
-- WITHOUT THE NEED FOR
MEDICAL TRAINING -- BUT THE
PROBLEM IS THAT THE PRICE FOR
BOTH THE BRANDED AND GENERIC
NALOXONE NASAL SPRAYS REMAIN
ARTIFICIALLY HIGH IT HAPPENED
IN THIS TREND HAS BEEN GOING
ON FOR SEVERAL YEARS LEADING TO
ACCESS BARRIERS AND CONTINUED
GROWTH IN OVERDOSE DEATHS
TODAY'S MARKET LACKS ACCESS
TO LOW COST NALOXONE NASAL
SPRAY OF RELYING ON THE MARKET
TO SELF CORRECT IS UNCERTAIN
UNDERSCORING THE NEED TO SUPPORT
DEVELOPMENT MANUFACTURING OR
PROCUREMENT OF A LOW COST OPTION
-- ACCESS TO LOW COST NO LOCKS
ON NASAL SPRAY IN COMMUNITIES
ACROSS CALIFORNIA WERE WILL
REDUCE OPIOID RELATED DEATHS
-- THIS PROPOSAL -- SIX ONE
TIME FUNDING OF THIRTY MILLION
AN OPIOID SETTLEMENT FUNDS
FOR THE CALORIE ACTS AND THE
LOCKS ON ACCESS INITIATIVE
THESE RESOURCES WOULD BE USED
TO SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT
MANUFACTURING A PROCUREMENT OF
A LOW COST NASAL SPRAY PRODUCT
-- THE STATE'S CONTRIBUTION
WOULD HELP FUND THE PROJECT
AND THE SELECTED PARTNER
WOULD CARRY OUT ACTIVITIES
PERTAINING TO RESEARCH AND
DEVELOPMENT INCLUDING CLINICAL
STUDIES MANUFACTURING PROCESS
DEVELOPMENT OF THE REGULATORY
ACTIVITIES INCLUDING --
OBTAINING FDA APPROVAL AND
THEN LASTLY A SMALL PORTION
OF THIS -- REQUEST WOULD
PROVIDE ADDITIONAL RESOURCES
TO SUPPORT H. TIED FOR
WITH STATE OPERATIONS -- TO
SUPPORT INCREASING WORKLOAD
OF ADMINISTERING THE CALORIE
EXPROPRIATED HE'S INCLUDE
THREE PERMIT PERMANENT
POSITIONS ENABLE THE CALORIE
EXPROPRIATION TO SUPPORT THE
NALOXONE INITIATIVE AS WELL
AS EXPAND TO FUTURE TARGET
DRUGS -- THAT CONCLUDES
MY OVERVIEW AND I'M HAPPY TO
ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS AND THEY
ONLY COME IN ON THIS ISSUE
OTHERS PROPOSALS A SPECIAL
FUND PROPOSAL INVOLVING OPIATE
OPIOID SETTLEMENT FUND AND SO
THIS PROPOSAL ISN'T IMPACTING
THE STATE'S BOTTOM LINE GENERAL
FUND WE'RE ALSO STILL REVIEWING
THIS PROPOSAL BUT WE DID WANT TO
FLAG TO ISSUES FOR CONSIDERATION
AS YOU'RE THINKING THROUGH THIS
PROPOSAL OTHER FIRST ISSUE IS
THAT IT'S OUR UNDERSTANDING
AND IN DISCUSSING WITH THE
DEPARTMENT THAT THIS PROPOSAL
IS STILL SOMEWHAT CONCEPTUAL
SOME OF THE KEY -- ACTIVITIES
ARE ARE STILL BEING WORKED
OUT BY THE DEPARTMENT OF FOR
EXAMPLE IT'S APPARENT DEPARTMENT
IS STILL DECIDING IF THAT
WILL FOCUS ON PROCUREMENT OR
MORE ON -- MANUFACTURING AND
DEVELOPMENT AND SO THOSE ARE
SOME KEY ACTIVITIES THAT IT'S
STILL WEARING WE ALSO UNDERSTAND
IN CONVERSATION WITH THE
DEPARTMENT THAT THERE SOMEONE
CERTAINTY WITH THE COST OF THE
INITIATIVES OF THE INITIATIVE
COULD COME AT A HIGHER OR LOWER
COST THE ADMINISTRATION STATES
THAT IT INTENDS TO MANAGE THAT
RISK AND ITS ITS CONTRACT WITH
THE VENDORS SO THE VENDOR WOULD
WOULD HELP ME MANAGEMENT AT RISK
BUT THEY'RE STILL ONCE THERE'S
STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY HERE
WITHOUT IT'S A GOOD RESOURCE
NEED AND THE COST SECOND ISSUE
WE WANT TO FLAG IS REGARDING
THE -- THREE POSITIONS THAT
YOU CAN SEE SUMMARIZED ON
PAGE ELEVEN OF YOUR AGENDA
I'M WORKING WITH THE DEPARTMENT
TO GET MORE -- BACK UP ON THE
POSITIONS IN SOME PART TO JUST
OF INSURERS FULL JUSTIFICATION
FOR THE POSITIONS ABOUT ALSO
TO UNDERSTAND THE SCOPE OF THE
WORK INVOLVED IN THOSE POSITIONS
FOR EXAMPLE WERE TRYING TO
ASSESS WHETHER THE POSITIONS ARE
FOCUSED SOLELY ON THE NALOXONE
INITIATIVE OR WOULD BE FOCUSED
MORE BROADLY ON ADMINISTERING
THE CALORIE EXPROPRIATION IF THE
LATTER THEN THE LEGISLATURE OF
WANT TO GET MORE JUSTIFICATION

FUNDS SPECIFICALLY FOR THESE
POSITIONS THANK YOU THANK YOU

HOW MUCH WAS LEFT I'M SEEN OUR
SECOND REQUEST OUT OF THIS FUND
MASUMI WE HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING
HOW MUCH IS IT IS IN THIS FUND

WOULD HAVE TO GET BACK TO JUST
BECAUSE AND I'M NOT LEAD

YOU I KNOW FOR THIS SPECIFIC
INITIATIVE WERE REQUESTING A

THESE POSITIONS THAT THERE
THE WORK THAT THEY PROVIDE --
UNDER THE OPIOID UMBRELLA THAT
WOULD BE SUPPORTED WITH THESE

PAGE IN TERMS OF YOU KNOW THAT

EXISTING GENERAL FUND RESOURCES
THAT THEY HAVE SO WE'RE NOT
PROPOSING NEW NEW GENERAL
FUND TO HELP SUPPORT --
YOU KNOW -- THESE NEW POSITIONS

THROUGH THEIR EXISTING GENERAL
FUND MONEY OKAY
