Social Services Block Grant

Purpose of Program

To plan for the use of Local Social Services Block Grant funds for District VI. Planning involves focusing on the needs and problems of four "target" groups. These four target groups consist of: Adults, Families and Children; Elderly; Persons with Disabilities; and the Developmentally Disabled. Local programs are identified for each target group and included as part of the plan charts.

Primary Services

SEAGO develops a yearly Social Services Block Grant for Title XX based on community input. The planning process involves SEAGO's member entities as well as local service providers in each of the four counties. Once the plan is developed DES issues RFPs for those services and contracts directly with the provider who is awarded the contract.
