Committee approves agreement to accept EDC estimate for mental-health training
Summary
The committee authorized the mayor to accept an estimate and execute agreements with Education Development Center, Inc., to provide online mental-health and suicide-prevention training to city health staff and community partners; staff clarified contract dates will be corrected in backup materials.
The Community Service Committee authorized the mayor to execute agreements and amendments with Education Development Center, Inc. (EDC) to accept an estimate for online training for health department staff and community partners.
Human Services Director Miss McMahon explained the item is to accept EDC’s estimate and move forward with planning; Teresa Argandzi of the health department fielded technical questions about training dates and legal review. A staff member noted the backup documents referenced a March 16, 2026 start date and an earlier February end date that will be corrected in the contract paperwork. Miss McMahon said the approval at this stage accepts the estimate only and does not yet disperse funds.
Vote: Committee members raised no substantive objections and the motion was carried by voice/hand vote; no formal roll-call was recorded on the transcript.
Next steps: Staff will update contract dates and proceed with the mayoral signature as appropriate; training scheduling will be coordinated with partner organizations.
