In Re: Misc. Resol. 4899 presented to the Board on June 24, 1968
In re: OAKLAND COUNTY PSYCHOLOGICAL CLINIC
By; WAYS & MEANS COMMITTEE - David Levinson
This resolution was brought to this Board by Mrs, Elizabeth W, Mitchell,
Chairman of the Juvenile Affairs Committee which had been signed by five
members of said committee, It was a resolution requesting the Board of
Supervisors to concur in an agreement proposed by the Probate Judges
between the Oakland County Community Health Services Board and the Probate
Judges to expand the Oakland County Psychological Clinic.
The resolution was referred to the Ways and Means Committee and was to be
placed on the agenda for this meeting. The following is a report of the
Ways and. Means Committee relating to this resolution.
Since the last meeting of the Board it came to the attention of the
Probate Judges, the Board of Auditors and the Oakland County Community
Mental Health Services Board that Act 265 of the 1968 Regular Session
provides for the contracting by Community Mental Health Services Boards
with other Social Service Agencies, both public and private, and other
educational and judical agencies including the mental health and clincal
services of the courts. This Act changes a concept heretofor the law,
which in effect would not permit any contractual agencies such as those
just mentioned.
Therefore, the Probate Judges, the Board of Auditors and the Community
Mental Health Board are endeavoring to arrange a meeting with the Department
of Mental Health, State of Michigan, for the purpose of reaching an arrange-
ment by which the Psychological Clinic of Oakland County and the Oakland
County Mental Health Services Board may utilize each others services to
greater benefit the Mental Health problem in the County.
It is expected that under the new Act an agreement will be reached and
therefore necessitates no action on Misc. Resol, 4899. When an agreement
is reached it will be reported to the Board of Supervisors by this Committee.
itis hopeful that this agreement could be consummated before the next meeting
of this Board.
MR. CHAIRMAN, I move that the foregoing resolution be received and filed.
#4907
Moved by Levinson supported by Mitchell the resolution be received
and filed.
A sufficient majority having voted therefor, the motion carried.
