County Match for Hands Across America
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize allocation of $12,200 to Contra Costa Crisis and
Suicide Intervention Services as Hands Across America matching
funds to provide services to the homeless in Contra Costa County
and accept recommended budget for Hands Across America grant.
BACKGROUND:
On February 100, 1987, the Board authorized the County
Administrator' s Office to pursue a two-part "challenge grant"
proposal from Contra Costa County to Hands Across America for the
Homeless Revolving Fund. The two parts were:
1 . Request Hands Across America to donate the $2, 200
contributed by Hands Across Contra Costa on the basis
that the Board of Supervisors would match the amount to
the Homeless Revolving Fund; and
2. Challenge Hands Across America to match private sector
dollars raised for the Homeless Revolving Fund on a 1 : 5
basis ( for every $5. 00 raised by the private sector,
$1 . 00 would be contributed by Hands Across America) up
to $10,000 provided Contra Costa County matched the
Hands Across America donation on a dollar-for-dollar
basis.
Subsequently, Hands Across America granted $25,000 to Contra
Costa County through the Contra Costa Crisis and Suicide
Intervention Service.
On May 5, 1987, the Board requested the County Administrator' s
Office and the Health Services Department Prevention Program
office to work with Contra Costa Crisis and Suicide Intervention
Services to define the budget for the Hands Across America grant
and the appropriate match from the County.
The recommended budget for the Hands Across America grant is:

This will require modifications to the Office on Homelessness
proposed budget, but is consistent with the intent of the Board
of supervisors for the use of the grant funds.
The recommended amount of the appropriate County match is
$12, 200, with $2,200 matching the amount contributed by Hands
Across Contra Costa and $10,000 being the ceiling match for the
Hands Across America grant.
