City Manager ENCLOSURES:
RECOMMENDATION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Emergency
Ordinance creating a new special revenue fund entitled "Programs for the Developmentally
Disabled — 2001-2002 and appropriating funds for the program's operation in estimated amount
of $393,966; consisting of a $20,093 grant from the Florida Department of Children and Families
(DCF) and a $373,873 grant from the State of Florida Agency for Healthcare Administration,
Medicaid Program Development (ARCA); authorizing the City Manager to accept the grants
from DCR and AHCA agencies and to execute the necessary document(s).
BACKGROUND:
For the past twenty-three (23) years, the Department of Parks. and Recreation - Programs for
Persons with Disabilities has received funds from the State of Florida Department of Children and
Families. Since 1993, the State of Florida Agency for Healthcare Administration Medicaid
Program Development has provided grant funds for this Program. These grants are used to
provide programs and transportation services to more than ninety-eight (98) developmentally
disabled adults on a weekly basis. Due to the high quality of service provided by the City of
Miami, the State of Florida has again awarded grant funds. The contract period for the grants will
run from July 1, 2001 through June 30, 2002.
To serve as many as ninety-eight (98) clients, funds from both State funding sources are
combined to cover two (2) interrelated programs offered by the Parks Department's Program for
Persons with Disabilities. The Adult Day Training program provides for twenty-six (26) clients,
thirty (30) hours per week, a non -work oriented program, giving instruction in such skills as
telling time, transacting money, and learning independent living skills. The second program
provides for non-residential habilitation services to a minimum of seventy-two (72) clients, on the
average of eight (8) hours per month. Specific activities in this program include dances, bowling,
movies and special events. Additionally, clients are educated on socialization skills, interpersonal
relationships, and peer interaction. The Programs for Persons with Disabilities Division also
provides the clients with transportation to the various programs and activity sites.
