This week in Los Altos, the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors’ Public Safety & Justice Committee held a key meeting on April 14 focused on youth-related services and funding. The committee received an update on the county budget and state-federal funding, and discussed a retroactive contract amendment with HopSkipDrive, Inc. to increase transportation services for foster youth attending their school of origin and accessing child-oriented services. Additional county-level discussions relevant to Los Altos youth included ongoing reviews of youth organizations and voluntary service effectiveness, as well as follow-ups on reports concerning dually involved youth (those involved with both child welfare and juvenile justice systems). These efforts reflect continued attention to improving support systems for vulnerable youth in the region. What to watch: Future Public Safety & Justice Committee meetings may further address funding and program adjustments impacting foster youth transportation and related services in Los Altos.
