Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact


Statement of Purpose
RS15077

This is a FY 2005 Supplemental Appropriation for the Children’s Services Program and the Substance Abuse Services Program within the Division of Family & Community Services in the Department of Health and Welfare. These are two of the six appropriated programs in this division.

&nbsp

Fiscal Note

Within the Children’s Services Program a total of $1,078,300 new dollars are provided for family preservation services, foster care, and adoption assistance. These new funds are a combination of $956,800 from the General Fund and $121,500 from Title IV E federal funds and were appropriated in trustee and benefits. In addition, a total of $1,883,100 was transferred out of personnel costs, and $627,200 was transferred into operating expenditures and $1,255,900 into trustee and benefits for the same purpose. Beginning in July 2004, the Department of Health and Welfare had generated salary savings by keeping additional positions vacant in order to pay for these services. Positions are adequately funded to begin hiring the necessary child protection workers beginning in April and pay for expected costs of foster care and adoption assistance through the end of FY 2005.

The Substance Abuse Services Program received federal spending authority of $7,592,000 to implement the Access to Recovery (ATR) Grant that will provide additional treatment for the next thee years using funds from the federal Substance Abuse & Mental Health Services Administration. ATR is a competitive discretionary grant program that will provide vouchers to clients for purchase of substance abuse clinical treatment and recovery support services. Goals of the program are to expand capacity, support client choice, and increase the array of faith-based and community-based provider for these services. In addition, three limited service FTPs were authorized to hire a program manager, a program specialist, and an administrative assistant.
