Summary

Wayne County approved a retroactive Amendment 2 to a subrecipient agreement to assign an organization's legal name to Centers for Family Development, Inc., d/b/a Black Family Development, and to exercise the final renewal option to continue a women's trauma-informed relapse prevention program.

The Wayne County Committee on Public Safety, Judiciary and Homeland Security approved a retroactive Amendment 2 to a comparable-source subrecipient agreement to reflect a legal name change and to exercise the final renewal option for a women's trauma-informed relapse prevention program.

Lester Thomas, administrator for Adult Community Corrections, told the committee the organization originally contracted under the name Black Family Development, Inc. has legally changed its name and the amendment assigns the agreement to "Centers for Family Development, Inc., d/b/a Black Family Development." Thomas said the change "has been difficult for me because everybody's so used to Black Family Development Incorporated," and that staff "had to make sure that we had the documents in order to change the name."

Thomas said the item requests exercising the final renewal option and continuing program administration under the assigned name. The committee approved the amendment on a motion by Commissioner Peterson Mayberry, supported by Commissioner Daub; the transcript records only, "Motion carried."

The item was presented as new business and described as retroactive; the transcript does not include further financial details, contract numbers, or a roll-call tally in the meeting record.
