Request for approval to renew an Interlocal agreement with Channelview Independent School District for the period of September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2022. This renewal agreement is for two Youth Services Specialists to provide services that are currently not available through the district. The District agrees to reimburse the County an annual standard fee of $41,338.00 per Youth Service Specialist which represents one-half of the total personnel and mileage cost for each position.

Background and Discussion:
Harris County Resources for Children and Adults - Community Youth Services "CYS" Program provides voluntary services to students and families who are in crisis, within 14 surrounding school districts in Harris County. CYS provides direct services and referrals to youth and families that are not available through the District. The districts reimburse Harris County for 50% of the cost of each position. HCRCA has had this agreement with Channelview for over 30 years.
Expected Impact:
Youth who are identified as "at risk" and their families will have access to direct services and referrals
from Harris County Resources for Children and Adults Community Youth Services workers. These services lead to prevention and early intervention.
