Guardianship cases are those in need of supervision and there are no family members willing or able to accept that responsibility. If no other individual can be found to accept the responsibilities, they are assigned to Social Services by the courts. As part of the Sandhills Center reinvestment funding back into our county, they are providing the funds that allows Social Services to contract for this service. The cases that Empowering Lives handles are those requiring services unique to that particular client such as MH treatment, restoring competency when appropriate, etc. This has been an arrangement that has benefited our agency as the administrative funding source for Social Services staff to provide this service is capped and runs out every year, increasing county cost for this mandated service. The 2017-2018 budget includes the amount of this contact, $30,000.00, in the expense operational budget and the same amount shown as a revenue. Social Services pays the contract fee monthly and files for reimbursement from Sandhills. Commissioner Reives moved to approve the Guardianship Services Contract with Empowering Lives, a copy of which is attached to these minutes and by this reference made a part hereof. Upon a vote, the results are as follows: Aye: Dalrymple, Dodson, Knecht, Oldham, Reives, Sharpe, Sloan Nay: None The Chair ruled the motion had been adopted unanimously.
