| | | | | | | | SUMMARY
The Shasta County Mental Health, Alcohol and Drug Advisory Board is recommending reappointment of three members whose terms expire on December 31, 2017. |
| | | | | | | | DISCUSSION
The Shasta County Mental Health, Alcohol and Drug Advisory Board (MHADAB) was established on December 15, 2009 by Resolution No. 2009-121 adopted by the Board of Supervisors. The MHADAB serves as a mental health board required by Welfare & Institutions (W&I) Code § 5604 and an alcohol and drug advisory board authorized by Health & Safety Code § 11805. Three primary roles of the MHADAB are to (1) provide mental health, alcohol and drug programs with regular community input regarding services; (2) identify unmet community needs; and (3) review draft Mental Health Services Act plans and annual updates, and conduct related public meetings.
At its November 1, 2017 meeting, all MHADAB members present voted unanimously to recommend reappointment of current members Kari Hess, Charles Menoher and Marvin Peterson for three-year terms from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2020.
The recommended appointment maintains the statutory requirements pursuant to W&I Code § 5604(a)(2) for membership on the MHADAB. |
| | | | | | | | ALTERNATIVES

| | | | | | | | OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT
The County Administrative Office has reviewed these recommendations. The MHADAB supports these recommendations. |
| | | | | | | | FINANCING
There is no additional General Fund impact with approval of the recommendations. |
