JCPC Business Membership Update — Substance Abuse Professional name put forward is Maggie Simpson and Member of Faith Community is Dr. Bob Brizendine . Dr. Brizendine is the Pastor at Presbyterian Church in Hillsborough and is willing to serve. Peggy Hamlett motioned for Dr. Bob Brizendine to be appointed as the Member of the Faith Community representative and was seconded by Bernard Miles . Motion carried unanimously. No update on Maggie Simpson. She was recommended by Britta Starke (former Substance Abuse Professional representative) but no one present at the meeting knows her. It was decided that it would be better to have a representative on the board that members and programs know. Carol McClelland from Freedom House introduced herself. She is the Director of Outpatient Services for Orange County. Carol is hoping to be able to attend all meetings in the future and would be interested in serving in the Substance Abuse Professional position on the board. Peggy Hamlett motioned for Carol McClelland to be appointed as the Substance Abuse Professional representative and was seconded by Bernard Miles . Motion carried unanimously. Program Monitoring — Rebekah will be contacting the programs in the next couple weeks to schedule the monitoring for January. Denise wants to do a brief (about 1 hour) training with the members who will be conducting the monitoring . Donna King would like to be added to the Monitoring Committee . Denise would like to add the training to the end of the February meeting. F Risk and Needs Committee — We need members to be on the committee that will meet on January 22 in Hillsborough to discuss the data and determine funding priorities for the RFP release in March. Mia Burroughs, Kristi Price, Donna King, Peggy Hamlett, Bernard Miles , Lee Barnes , Meg McGurk, Ashely Taylor, and Carol McClelland volunteered to be on the committee . Rebekah will send out a reminder as we get closer. December 2015 Program Payments — The last check date from the county is December 18 . In order for payment to be made on that date the request must be submitted by December 9 . Historically, the county hasn ' t received notification or the funds until December 15 . We wanted to give programs a heads up that the funds for December will be delayed until after January 1 , but no later than January 8 . Concern was raised by a program about the payment timeline and why the situation couldn' t be explained to the Finance Office . If we know this is going to be problem then why can't we solve it. It is being asked that the board address this issue with the new Finance Director to address the short-term the issue for December but also to address the ongoing issue for the couple times a year it happens . This funding delay hurts the non-profits financially in their ability to pay operational costs .
