Summary

This report provides recommendations for Partnership grants administered by Social Development, Finance and Administration: Community Service Partnerships program grants (CSP) and the line item grant for Findhelp Information Services.

 

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.  For 2012, 214 eligible organizations requested a total of $14,696,501.00 to support the operation of community programs. These requests include a total of $1,577,846.00 for new or increased support from 89 organizations for 144 programs.

 

This report recommends the allocation of $13,462,054.00 to 214 organizations that requested support.  Of these recommended funds, $360,749.00 will be used to support new or enhanced programming in 49 programs, and the remainder will be used to maintain existing programs at 2011 operating levels.

 

An additional $124,471.00 is recommended for allocation to children's summer camp programs, and $8,000.00 of the approved funding has been held to administer claims by eligible seniors through the consolidated snow shovelling program. A total of $30,175.00 of the approved funding of the CSP 2012 Operating Budget has been held for appeals of the recommendations for new and increased funding.

 

Findhelp Information Services supports a strong community sector with quality information and referral services through 24/7 information lines and internet based data. This report recommends the terms and conditions for the service agreement governing the grant provided to the organization through the City's annual budget process.
