STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
Jefferson County Public Health (JCPH), the Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities program, requests
Board approval of an agreement to offer a summer internship to a Jefferson County high school student
under the supervision of a Job Coach provided by Cascade Community Connections LLC. Cascade is a
provider of services for people experiencing intellectual and/or developmental disabilities in Jefferson County.
Internship is for janitorial assistance at JCPH.
ANALYSIS/STRATEGIC GOALS/PROS and CONS:
JCPH has existing contracts with Cascade Community Connections. The scope of work of those existing
agreements does not overlap with the scope of work of this agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT/COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS:
This is a no-funds-exchanged agreement. Intern will not be a paid by Jefferson County and is not an
employee of Jefferson County. Cascade Job Coach will not be paid by Jefferson County and is not an
employee of Jefferson County.
RECOMMENDATION:
JCPH believes authority to sign the DSHS Work-Based Learning Agreement as "Employer"should be
delegated to JCPH Deputy Director Veronica Shaw since the contract amount is zero. Please pass a motion to
delegate signature authority to Deputy Director Shaw.
