Overview: This memorandum summarizes the Human Services Advisory Board’s recommendation for allocating the additional $100,000 in funding for the Human Services program Council approved in the FY 2021-22 budget.
|
Recommendation(s): |
That the Council adopt the resolution to authorize performance agreements with human service agencies, as recommended by the Human Services Advisory Board.
Background
• The charge of the Chapel Hill Human Services Advisory Board (HSAB) is to assess human services needs for Chapel Hill residents, identifying service gaps and ways to fill them and advising the Town Council on funding.
• The HSAB completed its evaluation of agencies for funding in March 2021 for the Fiscal Year 2022 Budget. The Board based its recommendation on last year’s (FY 2020-21) budget amount for the Human Services Program ($446,500).
• The Council allocated an additional $100,000 in the Fiscal Year 2022 budget with the understanding that the Board would develop a recommended funding plan to be shared with the Council.
• The HSAB met in August to develop its recommendation for the additional funding.
• The HSAB prioritized agencies that it had flagged during the review of applications whose requests were not fully funded in the initial funding plan.
Fiscal Impact/Resources: The HSAB recommends allocating the $100,000 to the following seventeen agencies:
1. Club Nova, Inc. - $5,000
