RE: SFY 2019-2020 Core Services Program allocation
Dear Ms. Griego,
This letter is sent to advise you of your SFY 2019.2020 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 tong 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.
The Core Services Program Plan is for SYF 2020-2022, a three-year plan; however, a Communication will be sent
each fiscal year indicating any Core Services Program funding changes. Additionally, each Core Service County
Design Program needs to be submitted annually per CDHS Volume 7, 7.401.12(E).
There are no additional Core Services Program funds for any submitted Core II Plan at this time.
The following are approved Core Services Program funds for your county:
