August 29, 1984 Me% SU.1cCT: Resolution allocating $724,915 of FY 1984-85 Federal Re lenue Sharing funds to Social Service Agencies RCFCRiNCts! City Commission Agenda ENCLOSURta: September 13, 1984 It is recommended that the City Com- mission adopt a resolution allocating $724,915 of FY 1984-85 Federal Revenue Sharing funds, for the period October 1, 1984 through September 30, 1985, to currently funded agencies providing so- cial services that address the City's priorities. At the meeting of July 30, 1984, the City Commission reaffirmed its policy that the City's priorities in allocating FY 1984-85 Federal Revenue Sharing funds to social service projects would be: 1) Addressing the needs of the hungry. 2) Taking care of the sick. 3) Related support services in connection with 1) and 2). Therefore, it is recommended that the currently funded FRS agencies providing services which meet the City's priorities be funded at the FY 1983-84 level. Other proposals would be considered at a later date, We expect that $925,515 will be available for social service projects in 1984-85. If the currently funded FRS agencies are continued, $724,915 of the available total would be allocated. Therefore, $200,600 would be available for other projects. The currently funded agencies and their respective funding levels that provide food, medical and related services are: Action Ccnvaunity Center $ 83,817 Allapattah Community Action 41,442 CCS/Miami Bridge 8,000 Coconut Grove Family Clinic 24,795 First United Methodist Church 10,312 Haitian American Cowunity Association 130,130 /P of Dade County, Inc. Memo to: Howard V. Gary City Manager P -1 L -2- James R. Scott Ccmmunity Association Little Havana Activities and Nutrition Centers of Dade County, Inc. Miami Jewish Hone and Hospital for the Aged, Inc. Southwest Social Services Total August 29, 1984 $ 35,541 238,070 108,465 43,947 $724,915 Allocating funds to these agencies at this time will permit them to operate at maximum effectiveness, rather than on a temporary basis as occurs when 1/12 allocations are made. The attached resolution allocates $724,915 to the aforementioned agencies pending adoption of the annual appropriations ordinance for FY 1984-85. It should be noted that eight agencies which received FY 1983-84 Federal Revenue Sharing funds and/or Contingent funds would not be continued after September 30, 1984. These agencies do not meet the City's priorities. Further, if these were refunded, $585,917 would be required, which is $384,921 more than the available total allocation of $925,515. The agencies affected and the amounts re- quired to maintain funding for a twelve month period are: Aspira of Florida, Inc. $ 74,594 Belafonte Tacolcy Center, Inc. 55,232 CCS/Overtown Day Care 58,887 CCS/Centro Mater 20,000 Industrial Rome for the Blind 24,000 Carey Technical Institute 210,000 St. Alban's Day Nursery, Inc. 68,204 Youth Co-op 75,000 Total $585,917 mmum ssn Unless additional funds are allocated either through F.R.S. or another source, we reconaaend allocating 1/12 of the amounts above to provide for an orderly close out of the projects operated by these agencies.

Asvira's committed efforts to instill self - confidence in these adolescents and to motivate and guide them through the critical high school years and onto college are to be commended. The community perspective they are able to contribute to addressing the needs of our youth is instrumental if we are ever to succeed in ridding our streets of youth gangs and keeping our cities safe and wholesome places to live.
