Origin

(June 15, 2011) Report from the Executive Director, Social Development, Finance and Administration

Summary

This report provides recommendations on requests for both new program funding and increased program funding under the 2011 Community Service Partnerships (CSP) program.  The CSP provides ongoing support to programs run by community based organizations that advance Council's strategic goals and priorities by working to improve social outcomes for vulnerable, marginalized and high-risk communities.  Each year, applications are solicited from organizations that demonstrate a fit with the CSP's funding criteria.  These criteria identify whether organizations have the capacity to govern accountably, deliver effective programs, and involve the community in decision making.

 

For 2011, 228 eligible organizations requested a total of $15,890,471.69 to support the operation of community programs.  These requests include a total of $2,376,705.69 for new or increased support from 78 organizations for 148 programs.

 

This report recommends the allocation of $4,658,646.00 to the 78 organizations that requested new and increased program support.  Of these recommended funds, $28,000.00 will be used to support enhanced programming in one program, and the remainder will be used to maintain existing programs at 2010 operating levels.

 

A total of $35,135.00 of the approved CSP 2011 Operating Budget has been held for appeals by organizations of recommendations for new and increased funding.  An additional $12,000.00 has been held to administer claims by eligible seniors in the former City of York for snow shovelling services.
