21 <br /> 1 Bonnie Hammersley said the peer support training for youth is the Reintegration Network <br /> 2 and they are new this year. She said they will be evaluated again next year to review the work <br /> 3 they have done. <br /> 4 <br /> 5 Slide #17 <br /> F 20 2-23 RECOMMENDED BUDGET <br /> OUTSIDE AGENCIES <br /> Social Services <br /> Awi3rded 11=M1 Raeommend Score <br /> Childcarervir;es $0 $35.000 $0 32 <br /> Assoc <br /> Interfaith Counch $250,000 $375:000 $731,750 87 <br /> OC Dlsabliity $8,513 $30,000 $22,500 86 <br /> Awareness Council <br /> Orange County $16,145 $20;000 $15;000 81 <br /> Literacy Council <br /> The Exchange Club $,14,252 $147263 $14.263 81 <br /> TOM- rS333A13 <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> 1 OF:T0[CAROLINA <br /> 6 <br /> 7 Bonnie Hammersley said childcare services are provided through the county with no <br /> 8 waitlist, so this is one reason they do not receive funding. She said that the IFC is continuing to <br /> 9 run the shelter and keep it going while dealing with all of the compounding issues from the <br /> 10 pandemic and that they are a very strong partner. <br /> 11 Commissioner Bedford asked for an update on the request from IFC for an interlocal <br /> 12 agreement about the shelter. <br /> 13 Bonnie Hammersley said once the towns agree if they want to move forward with it, she <br /> 14 will bring it to the Board. She said that it is similar to when CHT started and the IFC is providing <br /> 15 the only shelter in town. She said that the interlocal agreement would not include the food <br /> 16 pantry and it would just be for the shelter. She said once the towns agree, she will recommend <br /> 17 approval to the Board. She said the towns are hesitant because they think the county should <br /> 18 pay for all of it. She said that the amount the county funds for outside agencies is close to what <br /> 19 the county's portion would be in an interlocal agreement. <br /> 20 Bonnie Hammersley noted that there were three new applications submitted that were <br /> 21 not part of the presentation. She said that one is the Friends of the Mountains to Sea Trail. She <br /> 22 said they submitted an application for bridge building and capital, which is not an eligible use of <br /> 23 outside agency funding. She said there are funds in the capital budget to use for the trail so no <br /> 24 outside agency funds are being used at this time. She said that another is the Orange <br /> 25 Partnership, which focuses on increasing subscribers to the opioid and prescription drug abuse <br /> 26 advisory committee. She said that they have provided in-kind funds previously for them. She <br /> 27 said that there are opiate funds coming in that may assist. She said the third is the Oxford <br /> 28 House. She said that they provide housing for people reentering. She said the county provides <br /> 29 significant funding through emergency housing funds, so she did not think using outside agency <br /> 30 funds was appropriate. <br />
