Erin Moyer, administrator for Children & Youth, presented three items to the board and received approval for two contracts and the department’s third-quarter invoices.

Moyer asked commissioners to approve a renewal of the Avanco/EVango (case-management) contract for FY2025–26 for $44,685.37 to continue the department’s primary client and case documentation system. She also asked for approval of a fiscal consulting contract with Commuter Computer Aid Inc. (CAI) to provide training and process redesign for fiscal staff at a rate of $115 per hour, capped at 400 hours and a total not to exceed $46,000; Moyer said the consultant will train staff to break up job duties and improve invoicing workflows.

Both contracts were approved by voice vote after a motion and second. Moyer then presented the department’s third-quarter invoices for the current fiscal year and asked the board to approve payment. The dollar total for the third-quarter invoices was read during the meeting; the transcript reflects the request and the board approved the invoices by voice vote.

The administrator told commissioners that CAI has provided deeper training than previous firms and that prior consultants assisted the department with catching up quarterly invoicing; the new contract is intended to build staff capacity so invoicing and state reimbursements stay current.
