The proposed bill seeks to modify Human Care Agreement No. CW94269 with Frontline Community Services, Inc. to exercise option year three, which will extend the contract from April 1, 2025, through March 31, 2026, with a not-to-exceed amount of $1,776,360.76. Under this modification, Frontline Community Services will continue to provide essential residential services for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities that are not covered by Medicaid. The funding for this agreement has been certified as available in the District's Local Budget and Financial Plan for Fiscal Year 2025.

Additionally, the bill includes an increase in the living wage rate, which will rise to $17.50 effective January 1, 2025, and further increase to $18.00 per hour starting July 1, 2025. This adjustment is in accordance with the Standard Contract Provisions related to the Way to Work Amendment Act of 2006. All other terms and conditions of the original agreement will remain unchanged.
