COMMUNITY-BASED ALTERNATIVES TASK FORCE, APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS: Mrs. Miriam Evans, Chairman
of CBA Task Force, and Mr. Steve Tate, Vice Chairman of CBA Task Force, were present to discuss the
proposals for funding programs for disadvantaged youths in Iredell County. There is $21,978 in
funds available for new programs because of reiection by the State of some programs submitted in
July.
Mrs. Evans began her presentation by outlining the artivities of the C8A Task Force since it
was reorganized in August. She told the board that a new name has been proposed for the task force,
which is Iredell County Youth Services Advisory Committee. The committee hopes to assist disadvan-
taged youths in other areas, Mrs. Evans said.
Following her presentation, Mr. Steve Tate, Program Committee Chairman and Vice Chairman, gave
a full report on the programs being submitted at this time. Three programs were submitted in all:
however, only two were being recommended for funding. One of the programs is an expansion of the
Iredell Youth Home at $5,000, and the second is for Tri -County Mental Health for a Day Treatment
Program expansion in the amount of $8,100. Mr. Mack Bowers from Tri-Countv Mental Health Agency was
present to discuss this program.
The third program, Life Talk by Piedmont Mediation Center, Inc., was denied because it did not
meet the criteria of the State's funding reouirements. It was stated that $8,878 would be returned
to the State to be used in other counties since no program was available for using these funds.
MOTION from Commissioner Murdock to approve the $5,000 for the Iredell County Youth Home and
the $8,100 for Tri -County Mental Health Day Treatment with Education Program, and to approve the
name change of the organization to Youth Services Advisory Committee.
