FY 2007 Performance Contract Documents May 5, 2006 Page 2 General Changes in FY 2007 Contract Documents The FY 2007 contract documents reflect minor changes for the most part, such as improved grammar or syntax, increased clarity, and updated references. All Code of Virginia references are updated to reflect the revision of Title 37.2, enacted last year. In some instances, Code citations are added for ease of reference. References to applicable new State Board Policies 1035, 1036, 1037, 1038, and 1040 are inserted at the appropriate places. Cities and counties replace political subdivisions. Extraneous references (e.g., "such" and "the") are eliminated. Generally, when substance abuse refers to the condition (i.e., a person with substance abuse or dependence), the term has been changed to substance use disorder to reflect more up-to-date terminology. When the term refers to services that treat the disorder, substance abuse has been retained. Some of the changes in the FY 2007 contract documents follow. Performance Contract Changes 1. The Vision Statement is inserted on page 2 in section 1.g. 2. Additional substance abuse prevention requirements are inserted on page 6 in a new section 6.b.3.) e.) and on page 7 in a revised section 6.c.1.) e.). 3. Language about the Inventory of Mental Health Organizations on page 6 in section 6.c.1.) d.) is revised slightly. 4. Management expenses are deleted from the revised definition of Administrative Expenses, so "& Management" is deleted from page AF-1 (page 16) of Exhibit A. The revised definition is: Administrative Expenses means the expenses incurred by the CSB for its administrative functions. Administrative expenses are incurred for common" or joint activities that cannot be identified readily with a particular organizational activity or cost objective. Administrative expenses may include the following functions: overall leadership and supervision of the CSB organization (e.g., expenses for the Executive Director, Deputy Director or Director of Administration, and support staff), financial management, accounting, reimbursement, procurement, human resources management, information technology services, policy development, strategic planning, resource development and acquisition, quality improvement, risk management, intergovernmental relations, Board member support, and media relations. Administrative functions and expenses may be centralized or included in programs and services, depending on the CSB's organizational structure. However, in either alternative, administrative expenses must be identified and allocated among service costs across the three program areas on financial and service forms in the performance contract and reports, and administrative costs also must be reported separately on the Consolidated Budget Form, page AF-1, in the performance contract and reports. 5. Language to address new requirements for equal treatment for faith-based organizations, communicated in a letter from the administrator of the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration on November 18, 2005, is added at the bottom of page 37 in Exhibit F. 6. Language about one-time reductions of funds related to late fourth quarter reports is deleted in Exhibit E and Exhibit I. Partnership Agreement Changes 1. Language is revised to reflect the Vision Statement articulated in State Board Policy 1036.
