Adults to Day Programs
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Mr. Chairperson, ladies, and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS the Oakland County Community Mental Health Division was
forced to eliminate funding for transportation of developmentally disabled
adults to its various day programs in 1982 as a result of reductions in State
funds; and
WHEREAS this action has placed a heavy burden on the parents of
clients in Community Mental Health day programs, inasmuch as the parents
are forced to transport their offspring to and from the programs five days
a week, year-round, and in many cases over considerable distance; and
WHEREAS the State Department of Mental Health has advised that it
is unable to provide additional funding to Community Mental Health to reinstate
transportation services for 'developmentally disabled clients of day programs;
and
WHEREAS the Community Mental Health Division has $198,407 of State
Department of Mental Health funds in its 1985 budget which can be directed
to solving this transportation problem.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board
of Commissioners approves County matching funds in the amount of $22,045
for the period of April through December, 1985, to enable the Community
Mental Health Division to use expansion funds allocated by the State in order
to provide transportation services for 144 developmentally disabled adults
attending day programs under the Community Mental Health Division.
BE IT FURTHER .RESOLVED that this resolution does not bind the Oakland
County Board of Commissioners to .further funding in the event that funding
is not available from the State in future years.
Mr. Chairperson, on behalf of the Health and Human Resources Committee,
I move the adoption of the foregoing resolution.
