MINUTES <br />ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF SOCIAL SERVICES <br />April 18, 2022 <br />2 <br /> <br /> <br />3. FNS Waivers and Impacts <br /> <br />Lindsey Shewmaker presented a summary of all the current FNS waivers related to the public <br />health emergency. The presentation included anticipated end dates, most of which are likely to <br />occur this summer. The end result will see many families left with reduced benefits, and in some <br />cases no FNS benefits. Staff are working with community partners to ensure there are safety nets in <br />place. <br /> <br />4. Director’s Report <br /> <br />CRP funding has been renewed for one more year so the agency has another $100,000 in revenue <br />that will be added to the budget. <br /> <br />Child-only Work First cases received a one-time payment of $500 as part of recovery plans. <br /> <br />Staff have been working hard to get payments of file for the water program and other energy <br />programs. Additional funds will be released soon and a second energy payment will be coming to <br />clients’ accounts in May. <br /> <br /> <br />VII.
