Attachment <br /> <br /> DHR BUDGET REDUCTIONS <br /> <br /> State agencies are being directed to reduce their budgets by another <br /> 1.5%, effective October 1. For the Department of Human Resources, <br /> this round of cuts is necessitating a reduction in aid to local <br /> programs. Until now, the Department has been able to achieve its <br /> mandatory reductions without affecting local resources. <br /> <br /> We have been advised by the Secretary's office that the amounts of <br /> the new reductions, by division, are as follows: <br /> <br /> Mental Hea~th/Mental Retardation/Substance Abuse - $3,900,998 <br /> Facility Services - $466,802 <br /> Social Services - $391,991 <br /> Vocational Rehabilitation - $335,040 <br /> Aging - $135,997 <br /> Youth Services - $231,749 <br /> Blind Services - $86,453 <br /> Deaf and Hard of Hearing - $9,020 ' <br /> <br />Obviously, the most severe impact will be felt in the Area Mental <br />Health Programs. This is approximately a 2.7% reduction for them. At <br />this time, the Department expects to allow each area to determine <br />where to take the reduction. Each area will be reduced by a prorata <br />share of the overall amount of state funds the area was allocated for <br />1990-91, excluding certain programs such as Willie M. and Thomas S. <br /> <br />County Social Services directors have requested that their reductions <br />be taken by reducing the federal financial participation for <br />administration by the necessary amount, rather than by reducing the <br />State Aid to Counties funds. At this time, it is not clear whether <br />the federal DeDartment of ~ealth and Human Services will allow the <br />federal funds to be used in this manner. Your social services <br />director should be able to keep you informed on this issue. <br /> <br />The reductions in Facility Services will affect your county's day care <br />allocations. To the extent possible, funds which would ordinarily be <br />used for reallocations will instead be reverted, so if your county <br />typically benefits from the reallocation system it is not likely that <br />these funds will be forthcoming. It is not clear whether <br />reallocations will be sufficient to make up the amount of necessary <br />funds for this division. <br /> <br />Youth Services is proposing that their reductions be taken from <br />reallocations of Community Based Alternatives funds which would <br />normally be made available to counties in late December; a small <br /> <br /> <br />
