Retention requirements apply to the community <br />service providers funded under this Agreement to provide Home and Community Care Block <br />Grant services.

Records <br />legally required for ongoing official proceedings, such as outstanding litigation, claims, audits, <br />or other official actions, must be maintained for the duration of that action, notwithstanding the <br />instructions of the NC DHHS record retention and disposition schedule. <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 77CA1707-F436-49CC-9707-C18BC735AAE4
