FORSYTH COUNTY ANNOUNCES AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS

Forsyth County announces the planning for availability of Home and Community Care Block Grant (HCCBG) funds for the state fiscal year beginning July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025. Funding is dependent upon the availability of state and federal funds. This funding is available to provide approved HCCBG services.

The HCCBG was designed to establish an efficient and effective service delivery system for meeting the needs of a rapidly growing older adult population. The HCCBG addresses the complexities of fragmented service delivery systems by consolidating, under a single set of policies, procedures and service requirements, several existing funding sources targeted to serve and support older adults. A link to the HCCBG Procedures Manual can be found at http://www.ncdhhs.gov/aging/manual/hccbg/hccbg.htm>.

Any public, private-nonprofit, or for-profit corporation interested in providing services approved under the HCCBG is required to attend an Information Session scheduled for 9:30am on April 26, 2024 via Zoom meeting. Organizations that do not attend the information session are not eligible to apply for funding.

Questions can be directed to Bob Cleveland, Aging Program Planner with the Piedmont Triad Regional Council Area Agency on Aging at 336.904.0300 or bcleveland@ptrc.org.

Mr. Cleveland will provide the April 26th meeting Zoom link to those who contact him.
