Introductions were made. • Amber Smith covered HCCBG Allocation Recommendation worksheet. Amber Smith recommended a decrease in Adult Day Care/Health by $5894.00, and to redirect those funds to Transportation. NHC DSS receives state funding to serve adults 18 and older. There are currently unspent day care /health funds. There is currently no waiting list for Adult Day care/Health. It was proposed to transfer the $5894.00 to increase the general and medical transportation allocation. The SRC lost the DOT 5310 funding due to a 2010 census that classified NHC as a large, urbanized area. NHC Board of County Commissioners allocated the SRC a larger percentage of ED -TAP. With this increase from ED -TAP, the SRC is still lacking funding to serve seniors needing transportation services. In FY 16/17, transportation will be managing HCCBG and ROAP (seniors and disabled). Trips consist of medical appointments, dialysis, SRC nutrition, and essential shopping. These services are an important and overall benefit to the health and welfare of the senior population. All SRC program budgets were covered. HDM, Congregate, Case Assistance/I &R, SRC Operations, and In -Home Aide Services, will all remain the same. No increase or decrease from FY 15/16. ■ Questions/Comments'. 1. Is USER a viable prospect to pursue? Jane ]ones is looking into Senior UBER services to see if this could be an option in the future. Not an option as this time. 2. Where is Adult Day Care located? Elderhaus/Greenfleld area 3. How many people in Elderhaus? Day Care = 15 clients. Health r 7 clients. There is no waiting list for services at this time. 4. What transportation services are we currently utilizing? Taxi's, Wave, and SRC van. Everyone agreed that transportation could most benefit from the increase in funds. ■ A vote was taken. Nathan Bales motioned for decreasing Adult Day Care/Health by the proposed amount of $5894.00, and redirecting to General and Medical Transportation. Andrew Zeldin seconded the motion. Motion was approved by all voting members in attendance. No further comments or questions. Meeting was adjourned at 3:02pm. All voting members voted in favor of Amber's proposal to redirect funds from Adult Day Care /Health to General /Medical Transportation in the amount of $5894.00. The NHC HCCBG advisory committee unanimously voted and approved the Fiscal Year 16/17 allocation. Motion passed. No further questions or concerns.

The community service provider shall specify how the service needs of low income, low - income (including low income minority elderly), rural elderly and elderly with limited English proficiency will be met through the services identified on the Provider Services Summary (DAAS -732). This narrative shall address outreach and service delivery methodologies that will ensure that this target population is adequately served and conform with specific objectives established by the Area Agency on Aging, for providing services to low income minority individuals. Additional pages may be used as necessary. Although New Hanover County is second smallest in area (328 Sq. miles) in the State, it is one of the most populous as its county seat, Wilmington, is one of the state's largest cities. At the 2010 census, the population was 202,667, an increase of 26.4 percent from 160,367 at the 2000 census. The population density equates to approximately 1,058 per square mile and approximately 15.8% over the age of 65 years. According to the 2010 census 15.9% live below the poverty level. The NHC Senior Resource Center (NHC- SRC) has a case assistance program (Life Enrichment Program) committed to identifying all the needs of the individuals that come in contact with our staff and volunteers. The mission of the Life Enrichment Program is to provide quality and responsive services to older adults and their families. It is the goal of this program to promote social, physical, economic and emotional well- being, while encouraging maximum independence and improving the quality of life for older adults and their caregivers. Services provided by LEP include five areas of focus: Information Services: The gateway to assistance (no wrong door policy) Home Based Services: Bringing resources to the home Protection & Advocacy: Ensuring the right to safety and Health Independence Services: Promoting wellness Community Enrichment: Enhancing quality of life Prescription Assistance Program: assisting seniors enroll in programs to reduce prescription costs. Social Workers assess needs and link individuals with the most appropriate services. The intake process begins with an inquiry from a prospective client, family member, a member of the community, or an agency. Our friendly social workers are very knowledgeable about not only services provided directly by the SRC, but those offered by other community agencies. We act as a community liaison between the client, family and multiple community organizations. Our team responds to the growing needs of our Older Adult Community, and advocates on their behalf. We evaluate potential clients for program eligibility and participate in the development of community resources and services. The SRC has a Case Worker located at the building entrance who is dedicated to providing service or triage to the appropriate individual to provide assistance. A kiosk for E -Pass has been installed in the SRC lobby for senior access and hands -on assistance (if needed) from a case worker to make the use of the system less frustrating and still private. Home visits are offered to engage and assist families, who are in the process of planning for loved ones. The Center continues to maintain connections with local community sites (churches, senior housing, etc.) in low income and rural communities for presentations and educational events for all outreach programs. Transportation assistance is also publicized for these events when funding is available. The Center is also a site for early voting and primary elections with access to candidate forums and transportation as available for many on -site events. Our website is being is senior friendly and promotes the many services and special programs offered at the SRC. The SRC has a robust nutrition program that includes Home Delivered Meals, Congregate Nutrition, raised bed garden, on site nutritionist, and a variety of healthy cooking and wellness support groups. The SRC activities and recreation program consists of approximately 50 different exercise, education, and socialization programs for a diverse group of older adults to enjoy. The variety of classes keeps seniors engaged and promotes wellness, encourage independence, and enhance the quality of life of all older persons. The SRC has an active Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) and Foster Grandparent Program (FGP) that engages approximately 900+ seniors to volunteer their time, skills, and talents in the community. Some of the volunteer programs include; Home Delivered Meals drivers, Volunteer Income Tax Assistance, Senior Health Insurance Information Program, hospital, food banks, cultural arts, schools, etc. The SRC Transportation Program provides transportation services to seniors for nutrition, socialization, non - emergency medical appointments, dialysis, employment services, and essential shopping. The SRC uses a variety of contracted vendors who meet the federal and state contract standards. The SRC has one van that is used for nutrition and essential shopping trips.
