BACKGROUND
Gaston County will receive $1,387,278 in Home and Community Care Block Grant funds for FY2023-2024 to provide support services to older adults. The Home and Community Care Block Grant Advisory Committee met on May 9, 2023 to approve the best use of these funds, which allocates funds as follows: In-Home Aide, $707,512; Home Delivered Meals, $554,911; Transportation, $110,982; Adult Day Care, $10,873; and Respite Group Care, $3,000. The Gaston County Health and Human Services Board reviewed the plan and voted on June 1, 2023 recommending approval of the FY2023-2024 funding plan. The allocation of this funding, as well as the County’s required match, is included in the Department of Health and Human Services FY2023-2024 Budget. (Note: In the event the grant funds expire, the County shall not assume budgetary responsibility for the program, or any personnel associated with the program.)
