There is a Missing Paperwork report that lists all the agencies that have not yet submitted certain required documents as part of the application process. 2. Overview of Social Impact Fund Pilot Sheryl explained the pilot and that three programs were chosen from the non -county agency funding applications. Those programs are: #11 Coastal Horizons RESET for substance use prevention/treatment; #12 Child Development Center for early childhood learning; and #32 Phoenix Employment Services for workforce readiness. These agencies will receive three years of funding contingent upon the achievement of specified performance targets. The county will fund $265,000 for the Social Impact Fund pilot, and $735,000 will be allocated to the Non -County Agency Funding Committee for funding recommendations. 3. Summary of Non -County Agency Mid -Year Performance Reports Sheryl reviewed the consolidated performance report and highlighted those agencies that reported performance issues. The committee requested additional information regarding the missed performance targets for Wilmington Children's Museum, Inc. Healthy Plate. 4. Funding History for Non -County Agencies Applying for FY20-21 Funding Sheryl briefly reviewed the funding history report. 5. Methodology for Evaluating Applications Sheryl reviewed the rubric used last year for evaluating applications. The committee agreed to keep the same criteria for scoring the FY20-21 applications. The committee assigned each application to one of eight buckets, which represent the primary service areas for human services. It was suggested that next year a question be added to the funding application asking the agency to select the bucket for which the program best aligns. The committee requested more information on the primary purpose of #17 Community Enrichment Initiatives MLK Community Kitchen prior to assigning this program to a bucket. Gwen will request further information from this agency. The committee also requested summary information on the scoring methodology that was used for FY18-19 allocations, and Gwen will share this information with the committee. 6. Adjourn Gwen will email a list of the bucket choices and the scoring rubric to committee members for evaluating the FY20-21 applications. The completed rubric is due back to Gwen by March 6. The next committee meeting is Thursday, March 12 at 9:00 am in the Harrell Conference Room.
