	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 70, as amended, Committee on Budget and Fiscal Review. 
Budget Act of 2013.   Alcohol and drug programs. 

   Under existing law, the State Department of Alcohol and Drug
Programs is responsible for administering prevention, treatment, and
recovery services for alcohol and drug abuse and problem gambling.
Existing law requires the department to issue allocations of state
and federal funds available to counties to provide alcohol and other
drug programs. Existing law also requires counties that utilize these
funds to adopt and submit to the department a county plan and
negotiated net amount contract for department review and approval or
disapproval, as specified. Existing law provides that, effective July
1, 2013, the administrative and programmatic functions that were
previously performed by the department are transferred to departments
within the California Health and Human Services Agency. Existing law
also provides that the ultimate placement of these functions is
contingent upon the Budget Act of 2013 and implementing legislation.
 
   This bill would, on July 1, 2013, transfer the administration of
prevention, treatment, and recovery services for alcohol and drug
abuse to the State Department of Health Care Services and services
for problem gambling to the State Department of Public Health, and
would make related changes. The bill would require, by April 1, 2014,
and March 1 annually thereafter, until July 1, 2018, the State
Department of Health Care Services and the State Department of Public
Health to make specified reports on the substance use disorders
services program, as provided, and on the Office of Problem and
Pathological Gambling, as provided, to the Joint Legislative Budget
Committee and the appropriate budget subcommittees and policy
committees of the Legislature, and publicly post their reports on
their respective Internet Web sites.  
   Existing law imposes certain requirements on the State Department
of Alcohol and Drug Programs and on the Judicial Council relating to
the design and implementation of specified drug court programs.
Existing law also requires the department to establish
community-based recovery programs to treat the problems of alcohol
and other drug use among youth, as specified, and to develop and
implement a statewide prevention campaign designed to deter the abuse
of methamphetamine in California. Existing law authorizes the
department to implement a program for the establishment of group
homes for alcohol and other drug abusers, and to establish the
Resident-Run Housing Revolving Fund for the purpose of making loans
to group resident-run homes in conformance with federal law. 

   This bill would make these provisions inoperative on July 1, 2013.
 
   Existing law requires a county that applies for funds to provide
alcohol and other drug abuse to prepare and submit a contract for
alcohol and other drug abuse services to the department. Under
existing law, net negotiated amount contracts that are in effect on
June 27, 2012, are deemed contracts for alcohol and other drug abuse
services for purposes of a county's application for these funds.
 
   This bill would delete the provision deeming net negotiated amount
contracts to be contracts for alcohol and other drug abuse services.
 
   This bill would appropriate the sum of $2,004,000 from the Federal
Trust Fund to the State Department of Health Care Services for
mental health programs. The bill would make further technical,
nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.  
   This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as a
bill providing for appropriations related to the Budget Bill. 

   This bill would express the intent of the Legislature to enact
statutory changes relating to the Budget Act of 2013. 
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no   yes 
. Fiscal committee:  no   yes  .
State-mandated local program: no.

   SEC. 10.    Section 95001 of the  
Government Code   is amended to read: 
   95001.  (a) The Legislature hereby finds and declares all of the
following:
   (1) There is a need to provide appropriate early intervention
services individually designed for infants and toddlers from birth to
two years of age, inclusive, who have disabilities or are at risk of
having disabilities, to enhance their development and to minimize
the potential for developmental delays.
   (2) Early intervention services for infants and toddlers with
disabilities or who are at risk of having disabilities represent an
investment of resources, in that these services reduce the ultimate
costs to our society, by minimizing the need for special education
and related services in later school years and by minimizing the
likelihood of institutionalization. These services also maximize the
ability of families to better provide for the special needs of their
children. Early intervention services for infants and toddlers with
disabilities maximize the potential of the individuals to be
effective in the context of daily life and activities, including the
potential to live independently, and exercise the full rights of
citizenship. The earlier intervention is started, the greater is the
ultimate cost-effectiveness and the higher is the educational
attainment and quality of life achieved by children with
disabilities.
   (3) The family is the constant in the child's life, while the
service system and personnel within those systems fluctuate. Because
the primary responsibility of an infant's or toddler's well-being
rests with the family, services should support and enhance the family'
s capability to meet the special developmental needs of their infant
or toddler with disabilities.
   (4) Family-to-family support strengthens families' ability to
fully participate in services planning and their capacity to care for
their infants or toddlers with disabilities.
   (5) Meeting the complex needs of infants with disabilities and
their families requires active state and local coordinated,
collaborative, and accessible service delivery systems that are
flexible, culturally competent, and responsive to family-identified
needs. When health, developmental, educational, and social programs
are coordinated, they are proven to be cost effective, not only for
systems, but for families as well.
   (6) Family-professional collaboration contributes to changing the
ways that early intervention services are provided and to enhancing
their effectiveness.
   (7) Infants and toddlers with disabilities are a part of their
communities, and as citizens make valuable contributions to society
as a whole.
   (b) Therefore, it is the intent of the Legislature that:
   (1) Funding provided under Part C of the federal Individuals with
Disabilities Education Act (20 U.S.C. Sec. 1431 et seq.) be used to
improve and enhance early intervention services as defined in this
title by developing innovative ways of providing family focused,
coordinated services, which are built upon existing systems.
   (2) The State Department of Developmental Services, the State
Department of Education, the State Department of Health Care
Services,  the State Department of Social Services, 
and the State Department of  Alcohol and Drug Programs
  Social Services  coordinate services to infants
and toddlers with disabilities and their families. These agencies
need to collaborate with families and communities to provide a
family-centered, comprehensive, multidisciplinary, interagency,
community-based, early intervention system for infants and toddlers
with disabilities.
   (3) Families be well informed, supported, and respected as capable
and collaborative decisionmakers regarding services for their child.

   (4) Professionals be supported to enhance their training and
maintain a high level of expertise in their field, as well as
knowledge of what constitutes most effective early intervention
practices.
   (5) Families and professionals join in collaborative partnerships
to develop early intervention services that meet the needs of infants
and toddlers with disabilities, and that those partnerships be the
basis for the development of services that meet the needs of the
culturally and linguistically diverse population of California.
   (6) To the maximum extent possible, infants and toddlers with
disabilities and their families be provided services in the most
natural environment, and include the use of natural supports and
existing community resources.
   (7) The services delivery system be responsive to the families and
children it serves within the context of cooperation and
coordination among the various agencies.
   (8) Early intervention program quality be ensured and maintained
through established early intervention program and personnel
standards.
   (9) The early intervention system be responsive to public input
and participation in the development of implementation policies and
procedures for early intervention services through the forum of an
interagency coordinating council established pursuant to federal
regulations under Part C of the federal Individuals with Disabilities
Education Act.
   (c) It is not the intent of the Legislature to require the State
Department of Education to implement this title unless adequate
reimbursement, as specified and agreed to by the department, is
provided to the department from federal funds from Part C of the
federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act.
   SEC. 11.    Section 95012 of the  
Government Code   is amended to read: 
   95012.  (a) The following departments shall cooperate and
coordinate their early intervention services for eligible infants and
their families under this title, and need to collaborate with
families and communities, to provide a family-centered,
comprehensive, multidisciplinary, interagency, community-based early
intervention system:
   (1) State Department of Developmental Services.
   (2) State Department of Education.
   (3) State Department of Health Care Services.
   (4) State Department of Social Services. 
   (5) State Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs.

statutes, the department shall perform all of the following:
   (1) License the establishment of narcotic treatment programs in
this state to use  replacement  narcotic 
replacement  therapy in the treatment of addicted persons whose
addiction was acquired or supported by the use of a narcotic drug or
drugs, not in compliance with a physician and surgeon's legal
prescription, except that the Research Advisory Panel shall have
authority to approve methadone or LAAM research programs. The
department shall establish and enforce the criteria for the
eligibility of patients to be included in the programs, program
operation guidelines, such as dosage levels, recordkeeping and
reporting, urinalysis requirements, take-home doses of 
methadone,   controlled substances authorized for use

public, and to carry out this chapter. A program may admit a patient
to narcotic maintenance or narcotic detoxification treatment seven
days after completion of a prior withdrawal treatment episode. The
arrest and conviction records and the records of pending charges
against any person seeking admission to a narcotic treatment program
shall be furnished to narcotic treatment program directors upon
written request of the narcotic treatment program director provided
the request is accompanied by a signed release from the person whose
records are being requested.
   (2) Inspect narcotic treatment programs in this state and ensure

regulations. The department shall have sole responsibility for
compliance inspections of all programs in each county. Annual
compliance inspections shall consist of an evaluation by onsite
review of the operations and records of licensed narcotic treatment
programs' compliance with applicable state and federal laws and
regulations and the evaluation of input from local law enforcement
and local governments, regarding concerns about the narcotic
treatment program. At the conclusion of each inspection visit, the
department shall conduct an exit conference to explain the cited
deficiencies to the program staff and to provide recommendations to
ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations. The
department shall provide an inspection report to the licensee within
30 days of the completed onsite review describing the program
deficiencies. A corrective action plan shall be required from the
program within 30 days of receipt of the inspection report. All
corrective actions contained in the plan shall be implemented within
30 days of receipt of approval by the department of the corrective
action plan submitted by the narcotic treatment program. For programs
found not to be in compliance, a subsequent inspection of the
program shall be conducted within 30 days after the receipt of the
corrective action plan in order to ensure that corrective action has
been implemented satisfactorily. Subsequent inspections of the
program shall be conducted to determine and ensure that the
corrective action has been implemented satisfactorily. For purposes
of this requirement, "compliance" shall mean to have not committed
any of the grounds for suspension or revocation of a license provided
for under subdivision (a) of Section 11839.9 or paragraph (2) of

health and safety of patients, the local community, or the general
public. No exception may be granted if it is contrary to, or less
stringent than, the federal laws and regulations which govern
narcotic treatment programs.
   (b) It is the intent of the Legislature in enacting this section
in order to protect the general public and local communities, that

education, and responsible homemaking. The department shall define
"satisfactory adherence" and shall ensure that patients not
satisfactorily adhering to their programs shall not be provided
take-home dosage.
   (c) There is established in the State Treasury the Narcotic

remain in this fund after appropriation by the Legislature and
allocation for the costs associated with narcotic treatment licensure
actions and inspection of narcotic treatment programs, a percentage
of the excess funds shall be annually rebated to the licensees based
on the percentage their licensing fee is of the total amount of fees
collected by the department. A reserve equal to 10 percent of the
total licensure fees collected during the preceding fiscal year may
be held in each trust account to reimburse the department if the
actual cost for the licensure and inspection exceed fees collected
during a fiscal year.

the contrary, the department shall have sole responsibility and
authority for determining if a state narcotic treatment program
license shall be granted and for administratively establishing the

applicable laws and regulations shall be charged a rate of one-half
the program's annual license fee or one thousand dollars ($1,000),

patient fee increase that is attributable to the increase in the
licensure fee. This provision shall not be construed to limit patient
fee increases imposed by the licensee upon any other basis.

Insurance Code   is amended to read: 
   12693.95.  (a) The board in consultation with the Department of
Alcohol and Drug Programs shall provide the Legislature by April 15,
1998, a proposal assessing the viability of providing additional drug
and alcohol treatment services for children enrolled in the program.

   If the board determines that it is feasible to provide additional
federal funds received pursuant to Title XXI (commencing with Section

alcohol services and required federal approval is obtained, the board
shall negotiate with participating health plans to establish
memoranda of understanding between plans and counties to facilitate

Legislature, the Legislature finds and declares that there is a
statewide gap in publicly funded alcohol and other drug treatment for
adolescents which is significant and systemic.

and Drug Programs,   Health Care Services,  in
cooperation with the board, shall do the following:

programs designed to reduce drug use and recidivism, including, but
not limited to, restitution centers, facilities for the incarceration

component guidelines shall set forth the terms and conditions upon
which the agency is prepared to award grants of funds pursuant to
this section. The guidelines shall not constitute rules, regulations,
orders, or standards of general application.

   SEC. 90.    Section 2100 of the   Welfare
and Institutions Code   is amended to read: 
   2100.  (a) The Legislature finds and declares that California's
children are growing up under conditions of great stress that are
resulting in devastating effects on their development and well-being.
Structural changes in society, including the breakdown in the
traditional family and erosion of neighborhood community support
networks, have taken a toll on their welfare, self-esteem, and
academic achievement. While youth struggle with many difficulties,
four risk factors stand out: academic failure, substance abuse,
involvement in the criminal justice system, and teen pregnancy. To
address these challenges, the State of California recognizes quality
mentoring as a critical prevention strategy, not as a panacea for the
aforementioned problems, but as a cost-effective method of assisting
today's youth to become productive, contributing members of society,
and as an important source of data for improving the quality of all
relationships between youth and adults. Research finds that without
the caring support, counsel, and role modeling of more experienced
individuals or exposure to natural support networks, young people are
much more vulnerable to the destructive forces of apathy, abuse, and
neglect. As we acknowledge the increasing numbers of children who do
not have the benefit of positive relationships, there has been an
increasing recognition of the value of mentoring, an activity that
connects a caring and more experienced person with a young person who
is in need of attention and support. As a means of maximizing public
resources, mentoring is both efficient and effective, relying on
volunteers as the core service providers to create collateral
improvements in the lives of youth. The public investment in the
prevention strategy of mentoring has inspired significant private
support at the local level. Mentoring principles may also be used to
create mentor-rich environments wherever youth and adults interact on
a regular basis, thereby effectively expanding the world of positive
adult contacts for youth in their natural environments.
   (b) The complexities of supporting mentoring organizations and
promoting the formation of positive developmental relationships
wherever young people and adults interact requires the coordinated
and sustained support of many private and public sector organizations
to ensure that their services are available to all young persons who
wish to have a mentor. To meet the needs of each young person,
mentor services should be available in communities throughout
California and mentor-rich environments should be created wherever
young people and adults interact on a regular basis. Mentor programs
should be culturally and linguistically competent and should embrace
the rich diversity of the state. It is the intent of the Legislature
and the purpose of this chapter to foster a partnership between the
public and private sector for the long-term support of quality mentor
programs and mentor-rich environments in which young people can
interact on a regular basis with an array of caring adults.
   (c) Mentoring California's youth has been carried on by thousands
of dedicated volunteers through local mentor organizations and with
the very significant contributions of the business community in both
time and money. State and local government agencies also operate
mentor programs. However, the need far outweighs the current
resources. The valuable potential services of many caring adults and
older youth continue to go untapped while the waiting list of
children in need continues to grow, and distant youth-adult
relationships continue to exist where developmental youth-adult
relationships could flourish. 
   (d) This section shall become inoperative on July 1, 2013. 
   SEC. 91.    Section 2104 of the   Welfare

or exploitation within the family environment, unable to remain
safely in their own homes.
   (b) Children requiring placement in foster care are, pursuant to
Section 675 (5)(a) of Title 42 of the United States Code, entitled
                                                 to placement in the
least restrictive, most family-like setting in close proximity to the
parent's home, consistent with the best interest and special needs
of the child.

juvenile court under Section 300 and following who require placement
outside their own homes have special health care needs. Children
with biological families who can provide health care services can be
discharged from hospital care into home care when it has been
determined that the child is medically stable.

extent feasible, the placement of children with special health care
needs with relatives trained by health care professionals.
