PROGRAM NARRATIVE
The Homemaker Service continues to work with.low income frail
elderly to assist them with independence, transportation for
medical care and the ability to remain in their own home.
We are continuing to coordinate with Social Services, a service
to young low income families re: parenting, money management
and homemaking.
Costs continue to escalate with high cost of living, increase
of fuel costs, increased medical needs and transportation.
However, Eagle County Government is willing to supplement the
budget. In 1992, the supplement to the grant was approximately
$5000.
Coordination with other agencies, Council of Aging, Department
of Social Services, Nursing Service and other community agencies,
enhances services to the Homemaker Program and the recipients.
-DATA SUMMARY OF POPULATION TO BE SERVED:
This program will serve two major segments of the population. The first
will be senior citizens and the other will be low income parents. At the present
time, Eagle County has an estimated population of 1000 senior citizens. Of those
60 are receiving Old Age Pension from the Department of Social Services. A majority
of the seniors in the community have incomes of less than $1,000 per month.
The referrals to the program for low income parents will come from the
Department of Social Services. At the present time, there are thirty two families
receiving financial assistance from the department. However, this program will
focus on young mothers with small children who are overwhelmed or need to be taught
parenting skills. Most of these will come from the child protection case load.
There are approximately eighty four protective service cases in Eagle Count:,
The guidlines for the program, however, will be for families with incomes below
the poverty line. One of the criterias for referrals to this program will be
that the family meet the income guideline.
Overall this program will serve 32_ families. We expect that the
majority of these will be senior citizens to help them maintain a suitable
living environment.
The advisory committee to the Home Health Agency is the
Eagle County Human Resources Council.
Council members are:
Dick Truchses, PHD - Clinical Psychologist.
Phillip Freedman, MD - Vail Valley Medical Assoc.
Fred Distelhorst, DDS - Eagle Valley Dentist
Lucile Lieber - Council on Aging
- Eagle Valley Schools
Kathleen Forinash - Director, Department of Social Services
Margie Gates, RN - Director, Eagle County Nursing Service
Mary Hoza, RN - Colorado Nurses Association
Ray McMahan - Vail Valley Medical Center

Enclosed you will find the 1993 CSBG application packet and the 1993 CSBG
Plan submitted to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The
State of Colorado's 1993 CSBG allocation is $3,259,112, a figure 2.9% higher
than the 1992 allocation. Also, the poverty population figures used for the
allocation figures in the plan are now based on 1990 census figures unlike last
year which used 1980 figures.
As many of you are aware, the next step is to prepare your 1993 application.
For those of you who have submitted an application in the past, there are no
changes. You are required to submit only one copy, but that copy must have
an original signature by the appropriate official and should be submitted by
February 21, 1992 if you wish to start your new year funding March 1. Please
send your application and any future correspondence directly to me.
There are no changes to the 1993 program year. You are reminded, however,
of the low - income participation requirement and the anti- lobbying legislation
requirements affecting grantees who receive awards in excess of $100,000. The
requirements for public input and the use of your advisory committees have not
changed. Proof that you have complied with both requirements must still
accompany your application. You need to submit another W -9 form only if your
address has changed.
The current program ends February 28, and you will have 30 days from that
point to expend any unobligated funds if I receive a letter from you requesting
an extension. Your final grogram and financial reports must be submitted to the
Deprartment by March 31 unless you have received an extension
