Carbon County approves FY2025-26 Children & Youth service agreements, ratifies Act 148 invoices
Summary
The board approved a package of FY2025-26 purchase-of-service agreements for Children & Youth providers (including medical exam and forensic interview rates at Children’s Advocacy Center/NEPA and foster care and treatment rates for other providers) and ratified a revised FY24/25 Act 148 invoice for $18,235.59 and a FY25/26 second-quarter Act 148 invoice of $298,069.60.
The Carbon County Board of Commissioners on Feb. 19, 2026, approved the county’s FY2025-2026 purchase-of-service agreements for Children & Youth providers and ratified two Act 148 invoice reports.
Commissioner Rocky C. Ahner moved to approve the FY2025-2026 agreements as listed on Agenda Item #26-118; Commissioner Wayne E. Nothstein seconded the motion and the board voted unanimously to approve. The agreements presented a diverse set of provider rates and services, including: Children’s Advocacy Center/NEPA (medical and forensic exam rates and fees for forensic interviews), Diakon Child, Family & Community Ministries (per-diem foster care and specialized services), Miracle Hearts LLC (residential program rate $447.00 per day), and multiple adolescent residential and treatment providers with per-diem or per-unit rates.
Separately, the board ratified the revised Children & Youth Services FY2024/2025 Act 148 invoice report totaling $18,235.59 (Agenda #26-119) and approved the FY2025/26 second-quarter Act 148 invoice report totaling $298,069.60 (Agenda #26-120). Motions to ratify and to approve these invoice reports were approved unanimously.
The agenda materials list individual per-diem and service rates for numerous providers and indicate the county’s formal acceptance of the contract terms; county staff did not provide further discussion of vendor selection or line-item funding breakdowns during the meeting. The approvals enable the county to execute service agreements and to request reimbursement under the Act 148 mechanism as documented in the invoices.
The board’s votes were recorded as unanimous for the agreements and invoice ratifications. No public comment or contested discussion was recorded in the meeting minutes on these items.
