The <br /> attached budget revision for~ provides for a~ding this funding to the Social <br /> Services budget. No additional County funding is being requested. <br /> <br /> Chore Services provides assistance with personal care, food preparation <br /> and housekeeping to low-income qualifying older and disabled persons who <br /> need this service to help maintain them in their homes. Chore providers <br /> are employed and paid by recipients for up to 100 hours of service per month. <br /> Our office trains and supervises the chore provider and reimburses the <br /> recipient for the salary paid to the chore provider. <br /> <br /> We currently have a waiting list of 14 persons who need this service. <br /> The additional funding we have been allocated would permit us to serve <br /> four to five of these persons for the remainder of the budget year. <br /> <br /> Please advise me if I can provide additional information. <br /> <br /> CC - Blair Bennett <br /> <br /> <br />
