The proposed Modification No. M003 to Contract No. DCRL-2025-C-0058 with the Hospital for Sick Children Pediatric Center seeks to exercise the first option year for the provision of in-patient respite care placement services to clients of the Child and Family Services Agency (CFSA). This modification will extend the contract period from August 13, 2026, through August 12, 2027, with a not-to-exceed amount of $2,847,876. The increase in the total contract amount is attributed to additional placements required during this period.

Additionally, the modification includes a change in the price schedule, specifically deleting the previous option year price schedule and replacing it with a new one that outlines the costs associated with the respite care services. The new price schedule specifies a maximum of three clients at a daily rate of $2,600.80, totaling the not-to-exceed amount for the option year. All other terms and conditions of the contract remain unchanged and in full effect.
