Human Services Grants and Facilities Management:

This section helps to promote and support County and nonprofit agencies in the planning and delivery of services to ensure coordination, maximize resources, and eliminate duplication.

The section analyzes issues, prepares planning and implementation reports, and participates in various planning initiatives for human services. It also administers the County's Human/Community Services Grants, funded primarily by the General Fund, to nonprofit agencies providing programs and services that have a prevention or early intervention focus and meet an urgent community need. Administering grants allows for coordination of resources, avoidance of service duplication, partnerships between County & community agencies, and collection of information to support County's planning & policy-making process.
