APPROVE UPDATED HOME AND COMMUNITY CARE BLOCK GRANT
(HCCBG) COUNTY FUNDING PLAN FOR FY 2025-26 (REVISION #1)
Background:
Guilford County Health & Human Services - Social Services
staff has a revised HCCBG funding plan from the Piedmont
Triad Regional Council, who administers the funding plan
under agreement with the County. This funding is used for
aging adult in-home aide, transportation, and other services
for seniors such as adult day care, group enrichment,
community nutrition and home delivered meals, senior center
operations, and housing assistance. The original funding plan
was initially received and approved by the Board of
Commissioners in August 2025; this is the first revision to the
plan for this fiscal year.
The service providers under this agreement continue to be
the Adult Center for Enrichment, Inc. d/b/a Well-Spring
Solutions, PTRC Community Development, Guilford County
HHS-Social Services Division, Guilford County Transportation
and Senior Resources of Guilford. PTRC estimates that
8,037 seniors will benefit from these block grant-funded
services, a decrease of five (5) individuals from the initial
funding plan.
Total updated Block Grant Funding for FY 2025-26 is
$3,176,927 plus $131,143 in Department of Agriculture NSIP
funding for a combined total of $3,308,070, an increase of
$4,808 from the initial FY 2025-26 funding amount. The
entire increase is in the NSIP funding amount and will be
used for congregate nutrition and meal deliveries. The
required local match is now $352,993, an increase of $1.
The change in local match will be met with existing County
funds. The revised plan also shifts some funding between
services with about $47,000 from IN-Home Aide Services,
Adult Day Health, and Housing & Home Improvement being
used to increase funding for Group Respite and Home
Delivered Meals by equivalent amount.
Requested Action:
Approve the updated FY 2025-26 Home and Community
Care Block Grant funding plan; amend the General Fund
budget ordinance to increase the appropriation to Health &
Human Services - Social Services with $4,808 in
