Most <br /> TSRC program leaders and staff will be those with lived experience of incarceration. All TSRC direct <br /> service program providers will have lived experience of incarceration and the majority will also have lived <br /> experience with the targeted disorders.All direct service providers will become NC Certified Peer <br /> Support Specialists. Reflecting those to be served, most participants and providers will be Black/African <br /> American and male, although we anticipate a substantial percentage will European American and <br /> female. <br /> Funding Request: $165,170 for Year 1 and $165,630 for year 2. <br /> (Note: A mirror request is being made to Durham County's Opioid Settlement Funds.During this grant <br /> program there will be some fluidity in programming and related staffing carried out in Durham and <br /> Orange Counties. For example, someone released from Orange Correctional Center and entering <br /> transitional housing in Orange County may eventually move to Durham during their reentry. Further,the <br /> Director of Collaborative Operations may be funded to oversee work in both counties.The TSRC will <br /> carefully allocate funds so that: 1) programming in Durham County is charged to funding sources <br /> from/targeting Durham County, 2) programming in Orange County is charged only to funding sources <br /> from/targeting Orange County; 3) we will avoid any duplication of effort; and 4)there will be no double- <br /> charging or duplication in funding. We will keep discrete financial accounts for our work in each county, <br /> and both will be open for inspection.) <br /> 1 Memorandum Of Agreement,Exhibit A3,page 1. <br /> 2 Memorandum Of Agreement,Exhibit Al2,page 2. <br /> 1 <br />
