Sutter County’s Health and Welfare Committee is recommending approval of a $470,165.41 subrecipient agreement with Sierra Health Foundation: Center for Health Program Management to help carry out Proposition 36 implementation work for Sutter-Yuba Behavioral Health.
According to the committee agenda packet, the agreement would run from March 1, 2026 through March 31, 2028 and would come with a required FY 2026-27 Behavioral Health budget increase of $470,166. The packet says the money is tied to Proposition 36, the Homelessness, Drug Addiction, and Theft Reduction Act, and would support planning, assessments, coordination with justice partners, workforce development, technology improvements, data collection and reporting.
The staff report also says $235,082.71 would be passed through to Yuba County under a future memorandum of understanding. The committee agenda lists the item as requiring a 4/5 vote.
The proposal is part of a broader committee agenda that also includes health officer coverage and an adult behavioral health contract amendment, but the Proposition 36 item is the one with the clearest direct budget impact in the materials provided.
The packet does not show whether the Board of Supervisors ultimately approved the agreement or whether any conditions were attached.
