SUBJECT:
Execute an Annual Social Marketing Service Contract with United Way of Metropolitan Tarrant
County Funded by a Grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for a Child
Mental Health Initiative Co-operative Agreement
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute an annual service contract
with the United Way of Metropolitan Tarrant County in the amount of $60,000 for social marketing services
for the period of October 18, 2004, through September 29, 2005, contingent upon receipt of the third year
funding for a grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for a Child Mental Health
Initiative (CMHI) Co-operative Agreement with three one-year options to renew.
DISCUSSION:
The goal for the CMHI, "Children's Voices, Family Choices, Community Solutions: Building Blocks for
Healthy Families," is to create a new way of providing mental health services to children with severe
emotional disturbances. The social marketing services contract is one that is required by the funding
agency (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration, or SAMHSA). United Way provided
this service last fiscal year, through a contract that was approved on September 30, 2003 (M&C C-19779).
United Way was included and accepted by the granting agency as an approved participant during the grant
application process. All funds for this contract are provided by the grant from the U.S. Department of Health
and Human Services, which was approved by the City Council on April 23, 2002 (M&C C-19063).
The scope of work for this social marketing service contract is as follows:
1. Maintain, coordinate and direct social marketing activities for Community Solutions;
2. Coordinate all marketing, advertising and promotional material, including, but not limited to, the
development of a web page, brochures, videos, training materials and public awareness campaign;
3. Oversee the dissemination of information to the public regarding the system of care and its services;
4. Educate the public about the needs of children with serious emotional disturbances and their families;
5. Educate the public about good mental health practices for meeting the needs of children with serious
emotional disturbances;
6. Provide support to the family organizations associated with the system of care to implement outreach
strategies with families of children with serious emotional disturbance, who are from racial and ethnic
minority groups;
7. Ensure that the social marketing plan determines the informational needs of families of school aged
youth in the Fort Worth Independent School District;
8. Conduct focus groups or research pools to determine community perceptions on mental health; and
9. Ensure that messages, materials and activities that are developed are in compliance with Title VI of the
Civil Rights Act, CLAS standards and the standards identified in SAMHSA's Cultural Competence
Standards.
In the new process, families will play key roles in working with Wraparound facilitators (case managers) in

determining the care to be provided. The same Wraparound facilitator will stay with the family during the
time the child receives mental health services and will assure that other service providers collaborate in
providing care to the child. The target population for this project is any Fort Worth Independent School
District school -age youth between the ages of 5 and 18, who has been diagnosed with a severe emotional
disturbance. These youth are further defined as being at -risk for removal from school or home due to the
symptoms of their mental illness.
Providers in mental health, education, juvenile justice, health, substance abuse and child welfare will
participate in developing this system change.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and receipt of the
SAMHSA grant contract, funds will be available in the Fiscal Year 2004-2005 operating budget of the
Grants Fund.
