Workload for our partner agencies would increase and general knowledge and understanding about social services would be diminished. TDAC provides necessary resources to its clients that would otherwise not be provided the assistance that they need. i) Include any other pertinent information. • It is crucial with the increase of requests for immediate housing to avoid homelessness by people with disabilities; that we are funded for paid half -time staff.
