Project Description: |
DJJ Medical Health Service requirements have continued to be added and there has been no contract adjustment made to fund these services despite a commitment to do so. Services include on-site medical doctor weekly and on-site nursing minimum of 4X per week. PROB currently works with DJJ to coordinate implementation of services. Outward Bound has requested that a contract amendment be granted to include this unfunded mandated requirement. The estimated cost would be approximately $81,000 |
