ORANGE COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br />Meeting Date: September 20, 2018 <br />Action Agenda <br />Item No. 8 -c <br />1 <br />SUBJECT: FY 2018 -19 Home and Community Care Block Grant for Older Adults Funding <br />Plan <br />DEPARTMENT: Aging <br />ATTACHMENT(S): <br />Recommended Funding Plan <br />INFORMATION CONTACT: <br />Janice Tyler, Department on Aging, <br />919 - 245 -4255 <br />PURPOSE: To approve the recommended Home and Community Care Block Grant (HCCBG) <br />for Older Adults Funding Plan for Fiscal Year 2018 -19. <br />BACKGROUND: In 1992 the Home and Community Care Block Grant (HCCBG) was <br />established under North Carolina General Statute (NCGS) 143B -181.1 (a)(11) to provide a <br />"common funding stream" for a comprehensive and coordinated system of home and <br />community -based services and opportunities, for older adults. HCCBG services are available to <br />persons age 60 and older. <br />Administered through the NC Division of Aging and Adult Services and the Area Agencies, <br />HCCBG combines federal and state funds with a local match. Providers typically use a variety <br />of sources to offer programs such as senior centers, in -home aid services, volunteer <br />coordination, and congregate meals. The Block Grant gives boards of county commissioners <br />discretion in budget and administering aging funds. <br />The attached Funding Plan totaling $661,125 reflects a $68,305 increase in funding for FY <br />2018 -19. The Department on Aging will use this increase to support expanded Information and <br />Case Assistance services including occupational therapy home assessments, respite services <br />for caregivers, such as the Memory Cafe formerly provided by the OC CARES grant which <br />ended in August. HCCBG funds will continue for the Congregate Meals program and Senior <br />Center Operations. The Department of Social Services will subcontract for In -Home Aide <br />services and Senior Care of NC, Inc. will provide Adult Day Health services. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: The Home and Community Care Block Grant for FY 2018 -19 provides a <br />total of $661,125 to support a network of aging services throughout Orange County.
