PROBATE COURT
COUNTY OF OAKLAND
CONTRACT
THIS AGREEMENT, made this day of 198 between the
PROBATE COURT for the COUNTY OF OAKLAND, hereinafter called "Court" and THE SANCTUARY,
situated at 249 West Ten Mile Road, Pleasant Ridge, Michigan.
WHEREAS The Sanctuary, a community based, private, non-profit licensed child
institution, exists to provide shelter and counseling to young people in crisis.
While services are targeted to Oakland County residents, we will serve any youth who
meets our eligibility requirements.
THE SANCTUARY seeks to provide a voluntary community based program for runaways,
throwaways, and young people in crisis. The Sanctuary's primary goals include
preventing court involvement of youth, and reconciling young people and their families.
Services are provided without cost to families, and include emergency sheltercare for
up to fifteen days (with parental consent), daily group counseling, individual and
family counseling, and information and referral.
WHEREAS the Board of Commissioners is supportive of the Sanctuary's service
availability to Oakland County residents, has a history of support for the Sanctuary's
program and has allocated funds not to exceed $5,000 to be disseminated through
the Juvenile Court budget.
IT IS HEREBY AGREED THAT the Oakland County Juvenile Court, the Status Offender
Program, and the Youth Assistance Caseworkers, will make referrals to the Sanctuary
whenever possible.
THE SANCTUARY shall be reimbursed at the rate of $16.66 per day, per child that
has been referred by the Oakland County Juvenile Court programs, up to $5,000 during
the County budget period. This rate is applicable regardless of the client's wardship
status. This reimbursement shall be retroactive to the beginning of the County
budget year (January 1, 1980).
THE SANCTUARY maintains the right to determine eligibility of clients for its
program and to terminate clients from services if deemed necessary.
It is recognized that The Sanctuary will continue to provide services to clients
referred by Oakland County Juvenile Court if the $5,000 available for payment is
exhausted.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this agreement on the day
and date first above written.
