RECOMMENDATION(S):
Recommendation
That the Board of Supervisors:
1. Approve the attached supplemental budget in the amount of $46,750 for FY 2022-23 Department of Health and Human Services - Public Health Fund 1175, Budget Unit 426001 (Requires 4/5 Vote).
Body
SOURCE OF FUNDING:
Public Health Fund- Home Visiting Program (1175-426001)
DISCUSSION:
The goal of CalWORKS Home Visiting Program (HVP) is to support pregnant and parenting individuals, families, and infants in poverty by promoting positive health, development, and wellbeing. The pairing of home visiting with CalWORKs provides an opportunity to connect parents with necessary resources, improve their parenting skills and household order and ensure that their children have a safe and nurturing environment that allows them to grow and thrive. HVP focuses on expanding educational opportunities, financial capabilities, and improving the likelihood of exiting poverty.
HVP was awarded allocation #22/23-12, in the amount of $303,314, on September 2, 2022, from California Department of Social Services (CDSS) which was disbursed until its termination date of June 30th, 2023. Allocation was reimbursed each quarter for services performed during award period of 7/1/2022 until 6/30/2023. The allocation was higher than budgeted during the FY 2022-23 annual county budget process, and requires a supplemental budget in fund 1175, budget unit 426001, Home Visiting Program to recognize the additional unanticipated funds.
