XVhile AltaMed scored the highest overall cumulative average, that scoring difference primarily was caused by the requested reimbursement rates between the two proposers and staffing capacity.

Compatior proposed an initial hourly rate of $150 and AltaMed proposed an hourly rate of $84.13.

Additionally, Compatior is a much smaller organization with significantly fewer staff members than AltaMed as a whole organization. However, it should be noted that AltaMed's proposed Behavioral Team specifically assigned to this Program is comparable in size with Compatior's staffing.

As reported previously to the City Council, Compatior proposed an adjusted rate of $75 per hour.

Acceptance of that alternative rate is up to the Council, and, as stated, was received after the scoring process had been completed.

Taking all of the above into consideration, staff concluded that both organizations are technically, financially, historically, and professionally qualified to provide mental health and counseling services required by the solicitation. However, there are principal differences between the two organizations that led staff to recornrnend Compatior for the City Council to consider. Compatior is a local organization that established its roots in the City of South Gate, and it has continued to focus its services primarily on local residents. Eighty percent of its staff members were previous patients and are now paying it forward to serve their own community. Local residents helping one another provides 4 899
a unique cornmonality between service providers and patients that would otherwise be more difficult to duplicate in a much larger organization.

AltaMed serves a much larger population and region, namely Los Angeles and Orange County. South Gate is one of many cities AltaMed serves. Both organizations provide quality mental health and counseling services, however, Compatior has differentiated itself from AltaMed through its commitment to serve and focus its services primarily towards South Gate residents. Although it is a small organization, it has proven its resilience and commitment to serve the community through the pandemic.

With City financial assistance, Compatior has served nearly 170 South Gate residents over the last 3 years. They reported serving more with other funding contracts they receive from third parties. Given both organizations are well qualified to deliver the services, staff believes Compatior's appeals to a portion of our community that seeks a smaller entity to access services for a variety of reasons that will go unserved through another provider. That is not to imply that a provider such as AltaMed is not accepting or attempting to reach out to such individuals. As a result of the pandemic, we recognize that many residents across the spectrum prefer and feel more at ease in seeking this critical service from a smaller sized and more accommodating structure.

Compatior has no known service complaints by clients under existing agreements with the City. Their pricing is within the approved Los Angeles County reimbursement rates for counseling and mental health services. Finally, they have delivered acceptable services underprevious and current agreements for similar services called for under this proposal.

Summary
The City Council has three viable options to consider: 1) Award the contract to Compatior as originally recommended by staff; 2) Award contracts to both Compatior and AltaMed, and appropriate sufficient funds from ARPA or 3) Reject bothproposals and conduct solicitationfor mental health services again.

BACKGROUND: On July 26, 2022, the City Council continued this item to the August 9, 2022, City Council Meeting and directed staff to provide AltaMed's response to the solicitation for mental health services. On September 28, 2021, the South Gate City Council authorized the City Manager to utilize ARPA funding from the United States Department of Treasury for the Revive South Gate Spending Plan, which includes five spending categories: recovery from the pandemic, direct assistance programs, public health and safety, critical infrastructure, and city fiscal health. To respond to needs locally, the City of South Gate has authorized the expenditure of up to $175,000, annually, for a mental health program using ARPA funding, with two one-year possible extensions, including certified counseling and clinical services.

V ProgramPlan
As an FQHC, AltaMed lias a robust Behavioral Health program in its coinmunity clinics.

However, due to the COWD-19 pandemic, AltaMed's resources for behavioral health have been reduced and the demands on these services haye increased. AltaMed's existing services include using the evidence-based modelScreening,Brief Interveritiori, Referralfor Treatment(SBIRT)to screen patients for depression/anxiety using the Patient Health Questionaire-2 (PHQ-2/PHQ-9).

However, with limited resources, AltaMed often refers these patients to the LA Department of A]taMed Health Services Corporation "ASG= AltaMed South Gate PROPOSAL PAGE 7 of 113

In the last 2 years, con'u'n'imity liealtl'i centers have helped to form a significant portion of tlie nation's response to the COVID-19 pandeinic. The National Association of Con'u'iiunity Health Centers (NACHC) repoits that between April 2020-April 2021, conununity health centers tested over 12 million patients for COWD-19 and provided over 13 million vaccinations, yvith 49% of vaccinated patients self-identifying as part of a racial or ethnic minority2. During the height of the pandeinic, AltaMed perfoin'ied more tlian 5,000 COVID-19 tests per yiieek, one of the higl'iest of all coinmunity health centers in California. AltaMed consistently demonstrated l'iigher positivity rates in its tests results, likely due to tlie population served beiixg primarily low-income, essential workers.

YOUR HEALTHIEST SELF
Emotional Wellness Checklist
Emotional wellness is the ability to successfully handle life's stresses and adapt to change and difficult times. Here are tips forimproving your emotional health:

BRIGHTEN YOUR OUTLOOK
People who are emotionally well,
experts say, have fewer negative
emotions and are able to bounce back
from difficulties faster. This quality
is called resilience. Another sign of
emotional wellness is being able to
hold onto positive emotions longer
and appreciate the good times.

To develop a more positive mindset:
0 Remeinber your good deeds.
0 Forgive yourself.
€ Spend more time with your friends.
[:l Explore your beliefs about the meaning
and purpose oflife.
€ Develop healthy physical habits.

REDUCE STRESS
Everyone feels stressed from time to
time, Stress can give you a rush of energy
when it's needed most. But if stress
lasts a long time-a condition known as
chronic stress-those "high alert" changes
become harmful ratherthan helpful.

Learning healthy ways to cope with
stress can also boost your resilience.

To help manage your stress:

CI Get enough sleep.
€ Exercise regularly.
[J Build a social support network.
[:] Set priorities.
€ Think positive.

CI Try relaxation methods.
€ Seek l"ielp.

GET QUALITY SLEEP
To fitin everything we wantto do in our
day, we often sacrifice sleep. But sleep
affects both mental and physical health.

It's vital to your well-being. When you're
tired, you can't function at your best. Sleep
helps you think more clearly, have quicker
reflexes and focus better. Take steps
to make sure you regularly get a good
night's sleep.

To get better quality sleep:
€ GO to bed and get up each day at
the same time.

CI Sleep in a dark, quiet place.

L] Exercise daily.
€ Limittheuseofelectronics.
!J Relax before bedtime.
0 Avoid alcohol, nicotine, & stimulants
late in the day.
[1 Consult a healtl"i care professional if
you have ongoing sleep problems.

BE MINDFUL
The concept of mindfulness is simple.

This ancient practice is about being
completely aware of what's happening in
the present-of all that's going on inside
and all that's happening around yobi. It
means not living yourlife on "autopilot."
Becoming a more mindful person
requires commitment and practice. Here
are some tips to help you get started.

COPE WITH LOSS
When someone you love dies, your world
changes. There is no right or wrong way
to mourn. Although the death of a loved
one can feel overwhelming, most people
can make itthrough the grieving process
with the support of family and friends.

Learn healthy ways to help you through
difficult times.

STRENGTHEN SOCIAL CONNECTIONS
Social connections might help protect
health and lengthen life. Scientists are
finding that ourlinks to others can have
powerFul effects on our health-both
emotionally and physically. Whether
with romantic partners, family, friends,
neighbors, or others, social connections
can influence ocir biology and well-being.

To be more mindful:
[J Take some deep breaths in through
your nose to a count of 4, hold for 1
second and then exhale through the
mouth to a count of 5. Repeat often.
[] Enjoy a stroll and notice the sights
around you.
[:] Practice mindful eating. Be aware of each
bite and when you're fcill.
€ Find mindfulness resources in yourlocal
community, including classes, programs,
or books.

To help cope with loss:
0 Take care of yourself.
[] Talk to a caring friend.
[:] Try not to make any major
changes right away.

CI Join a grief support group.
€ Consider professional support.

Cl Talk to your doctor if you're having
trorible with everyday activities.
[] Be patient. Mourning takes time.

To build healthy support systems:
€ Build strong relationships with your kids.
[J Get active and share good habits with
family and friends.

CI If you're a family caregiver, ask for help
from others.

LJ Join a group focused on a favorite hobby,
such as reading, hiking, or painting.

SER CONSCIENTE
El concepto de atenci6n plena es simple.

Esta antigua practica se trata de ser
completamente consciente de lo que sucede
en el momento, de todo lo que sucede
dentro suyo y todo lo que sucede a su
alrededor. Significa no vivir su vida "en piloto
autom.4tico". Convertirse en una persona mas
consciente requiere compromiso y practica.

Aquf hay algunos consejos para ayudarlo a
comenzar.

Para ser mjs consciente:
€ Inhale profundamente por la nariz
hasta contar hasta 4, sostenga durante
1 segundo y luego exhale por la boca
hasta contar hasta 5. Repita a menudo.
[:i Disfrute de un paseo y observe las vistas
alrededor suyo.
€ Practique la alimentaci6n consciente.

Preste atenci6n a cada bocado y a
cuando se sienta satisfecho.
[:l Busque recursos de atenci6n plena en
su comunidad local, lo que incluye
clases, programas o libros.

HACER FRENTE A LA PERDIDA
Cuando alguien a quien ama muere, su
mundo cambia. No hay manera correcta
o incorrecta de hacer el duelo. Aunque la
muerte de un ser querido puede resultar
abrumadora, muchas personas lo hacen a
trav6s del proceso de duelo con el apoyo
de familiares y amigos. Aprenda formas
saludables de sobrellevar tiempos dificiles.

Para ayudar a lidiar con la p6rdida:
€ Cuidese.
€ Hable con un amigo afectuoso.
€ Trate de no hacer cambios importantes
de inmediato.
€ Onase a un grupo de apoyo para el duelo.

Cl Considere recibir apoyo profesional.

CI Hable con su m6dico si tiene problemas
con las actividades cotidianas.
€ Sea paciente. El duelo toma tiempo.

FORTALECER LAS CONEXIONES

SOCIALES
Las conexiones sociales pueden ayudar
a proteger la salud y alargarla vida. Los
cientificos estan descubriendo que nuestros
vfnculos con los demas pueden tener efectos
poderosos en nuestra salud, tanto emocional
como fisica. Ya sea con parejas, familiares,
amigos, vecinos u otros, las conexiones
sociales pueden influir en nuestra biologfa
y nuestro bienestar. '
Para construir sistemas de apoyo saludables:
0 Establezca relaciones s61idas con
sus hijos.
0 ManMngase activo y comparta buenos
h5bitos con familiares y amigos.
[J Si es cuidador familiar, pida ayuda a
los demas.
[] lJnase a un grupo enfocado en su hobby
favorito, como leer, ir de excursi6n
o pintar.
€ Tome una clase para aprender
algo nuevo.

Overview
The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA) was established to help states and localities address the economic and health consequences of the COVID-19 public health emergency and its economic impacts. Since the start or the COVID-19 pandemic, mental health symptoms and substance use have increased. This funding opportunity provides support to community organizations that are responding to these public health emergency impacts. The awarded applicant will enter into an agreement with the City of South Gate to deliver mental health services to City residents. Eligible services include but are not limited to resource navigation support, counselling, and other applicable public health responses. Awarded contract will be for up to $175,000 per year beginning July 12, 2022, with the possibility of two, one-year extensions.

Eligible costs are any costs associated with the planning, coordination, delivery, and administration of the funded programs.

Background
Globally and nationally, the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected many people's mental health and created new challenges for people already suffering from mental illness and substance use disorders. As a result of these pandemic related issues, on March 11, 2021 President Biden signed the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (H.R. 1319) into law. The ARPA provides $1.9 trillion in additional relief to respond to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). According to the u.s. Department of the Treasury, the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF) provide a substantial infusion of resources to help turn the tide on the COVID-19 pandemic, address its fallout, and lays the foundation for a strong and equitable recovery.

ARPA includes direct assistance to cities to address the negative public health and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, including approximately $34.5 million to the City of South Gate ("ARPA Funds"). The City of South Gate coordinated a process of community engagement which included listening sessions, meetings with community partners and businesses, an online survey tool, and City Council and Commission meetings to hear what South Gate residents supported as funding priorities. One of the key themes that arose from this process was a need for mental health services.

On September 28, 2021, the South Gate City Council authorized the City Manager to utilize ARPA SLFRF funding from the United States Department of Treasury for the Revive South Gate Spending Plan, which includes five spending categories: recovery from the pandemic, direct assistance programs, public health and safety, critical infrastructure, and city fiscal health. To respond to needs locally, the City of South Gate has authorized the expenditure of up to $175,000 annually for a mental health program from ARPA funding, with two one-year possible extensions, including certified counseling and clinical services.
