Box A Greeley, CO 80632 ulrichjj@weldgov.com October 8, 2021 RE: SFY 2021-2022 Core Services Program Allocation Dear Jamie Ulrich, This letter is sent to advise you of your SFY 2021-2022 Core Services Program funding approval. In addition, the letter will identify changes, if applicable, that need to be made to the Core Services Annual Plan in order for the plan to gain full approval. Core Services Program funds are to be used for the prevention of out -of -home placement of children, to reunite children in out -of -home placement with their permanent families, and/or to prevent further involvement in child welfare. The Core Services Program allocation may not be used to fund the costs of out -of -home placement. The funds allocated among the Core Services 80/20 and 100% programs can be shifted across services throughout the year at the discretion of the county, as long as the shift remains below 20% of the total plan amount. If the amount meets or exceeds 20% of the total plan amount, the county must notify the State in writing of the intent to shift funds. Core Services Program funding is the payer of last resort. Counties will not be reimbursed through the Core Services Program allocation if other funding sources are available per CDHS Volume 7, 7.414(B)(3). Funds allocated to Special Economic Assistance, Mental Health Services, and Substance Abuse Treatment may be directed to other Core Services programs. There are no additional Core Services Program funds for any submitted Core II (Program Area 3, or Prevention) Plan at this time. The following are approved Core Services Program funds for your county assuming that the Child Welfare Allocation Committee (CWAC) will approve the second six months of SFY 2021-22 to be the same as the first six months of SFY 2021-22: Approved Funds Available/Source $2,127,896 - 80/20 $383,076 - 80/20 Expansion $858,631 - 100% $306,839 - 100% Mental Health $420,491 - 100% Substance Abuse $58,797 - 100% Special Economic Assistance A new budget will need to be submitted to CDHS and reflect the CWAC approved allocation for the second six-month allocation if it is different from the first six months of SFY 2021-2022 allocation. 1575 Sherman St., Denver, CO 80203 P 303.866.5932 F 303.866.5563 cdhs.colorado.gov Jared Polls, Governor I Michelle Barnes, Executive Director Col-kKun ; co.-f-;onS to/Ifi/2I CC'.
