LOOKING OUT FOR GOALS WHICH ONE
IS TO IMPLEMENT THE STATE'S
MASTER PLAN FOR AGING. ONE IS
TO DELIVER QUALITY SERVICES ONE
IS TO ENGAGE AROUND AGE WHICH
IS OUR- SHORTHAND FOR PUBLIC
ENGAGEMENT AND EDUCATION
AWARENESS AND MOLASSES TO
MODERNIZE CDA WE RELEASE ON
DEVELOPING QUALITY- DELIVERING
QUALITY SERVICES WERE WORKING A
LOT ON STREAMLINING-
MODERNIZINGEVERYTHING FROM
CONTRACTING OVERSTATE TO OUR
ALLOCATION. I AM WORKING
WORKING ARE PARTNERS TO KICK
OFF A PROCESS WHERE.
TENTATIVELY PLAYING TRIPLE A TO
OUT OF TRIPLE A STRUCTURE WAS
CREATED THE SEVENTIES IN
CALIFORNIA WE CREATED IN
NINETEEN EIGHTY. AND WE ALL
AGREE IT'S TIME FOR A FRESH
LOOK TO MAKE SURE WE ARE READY
AS STATE AND LOCAL LEADERS AND
PARTNERS. TO LEAD- INTO THE
NEXT DECADES AS AGING CHANGES
SO MUCH AROUND US SO THAT'S
EXCITING WORKING IN IN
MODERNIZING CDA. WE'RE WORKING
REALLY HARD TO DIVERSIFY WILL
BE- ENGAGING IN THE GOVERNANCE
GOVERNOR. GOVERNMENT ALLIANCE
RACIAL EQUITY TO MAKE SURE THAT
WE AS A STAFF ARE REPRESENTING-
THE BEST OF CALIFORNIA AND ABLE
TO SERVE CALIFORNIA'S DIVERSE
POPULATION AND WE ARE ALSO
LOOKING TO MOVE INTO A MORE
MODERN ACCESSIBLE AND
WELCOMING. BUILDING WITH WIFI
AND THINGS LIKE THAT- AND
MICHAEL WE CAN. UPDATE THOSE
DEVELOPMENTS IN THE NEXT PC
PETERS GOSH. SO CAN YOU JUST
PERHAPS ELABORATE SO YOU SAID
YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT- TRIPLE A
TO POINT OUT RIGHT SO. HOW TO
USE- SO WHERE SOME THE THOUGHTS
ABOUT. OUR LOCAL- TO BLAZE AND
THE RELATIONSHIP OF THE
DEPARTMENT WITH THEM GOING TO
THE FUTURE SO I MEAN AS YOU
SAID YOUR- TO RE IMAGINING THIS
SIR- AND IF HE'D TRAPS
ELABORATE A LITTLE MORE ON WHAT
SOME OF THE THOUGHTS ARE IDEAS
THAT ARE BEING. DISCUSSED
ENTERTAIN IN RELATION TO THE
ROLE OF THE TRIPLE A.'S- AND
THIS NEW THE PART YOU KNOW FAR
REACHING. CONVERSATIONS HAVE I
HAVE BEGUN WITH OUR MANY OF OUR
PARTNERS ON THIS BOTH IN THE IN
THE COMMUNITIES IN THE STATE
AND NATIONALLY- YOU KNOW AGAIN-
WITH AGING GROWING THE NUMBERS
AND THE CHANGING NATURE OF
AGING YOU REALLY WANT TO BE
SURE THE POST CDA IN THE LOCAL
TRIPLE. ARE PUT TO BE THAT
STRONG LEADER PART. SO OF THE
WE WANT TO. SERVICE AREA. AND
WHETHER THAT'S THE RIGHT NUMBER
GIVEN POP. CHANGES IS ONE OF
THAT ONE OF THE KEY QUESTIONS.
YOU ALSO WANT TO LOOK AT WHAT
WE'RE FINDING IS THAT FOR
TRIPLE A.'S TO BE THE MOST
EFFECTIVE AND SUCCESSFUL IS
THAT THERE ARE THREE
RELATIONSHIPS THAT ARE CRITICAL
ONE IS WITH THE COUNTY. HOW
COUNTY SERVICES TO AGING
DISABLED ONE IS WITH LOCAL
LIVABLE COMMUNITY MOVEMENTS-
SOMETIMES H. FRIENDLY
COMMUNITIES HOW ARE THEY
IMPACTING EIGHT. HOUSING
TRANSPORTATION KEY INDICATORS
OF AGE FRIENDLY. AND INCREASE
ONLY A THIRD RELATIONSHIPS
HEALTH PLANS HOW ARE HEALTH
AND- A MORE SOCIAL TERMINATE
HEALTH PROGRAMS A TRIPLE A
TRADITIONALLY WORK AND WORKING
SEAMLESSLY. TO DEVELOP THE BEST
DELIVER THE BEST HEALTH
OUTCOMES PARTICULARLY
SUPPORTING LIVING AT HOME AND
COMMUNITY. SO WITH THOSE KIND
OF HIGH LEVEL- CONSIDERATIONS
WE WILL BE ENGAGING THE TRIPLE
A.'S- AND THEY'RE INTERESTED
LEADERS AND THINKING THROUGH
WHAT IS THAT. CALIFORNIA FOR
THE SECOND IT'S- I WOULD MAKE
NOTE THAT- THE ON THIS
COMMITTEE ACTUALLY- I GUESS NOW
THAT A- PRIVATE YEAR YEARS
LITTLE MORE NEW YEAR AGO
ACTUALLY- HELD A HEARING. ON
THE DEMOGRAPHICS FOR AGING
POPULATION- MORE IN TERMS OF
LOOKING AT- MULTI ESTO LONG
TERM SUPPORT. SERVICES SERVICES
SUPPORTS AND- MAKING NOTE THAT
AS OF NOW FROM BUDGETARY
STANDPOINT THAT- ADMIT THAT
CAME AFTER PRESENTATION FROM
THE DEPARTMENT AND FINANCE THAT
SAID THAT THEY WEREN'T REALLY
LOOKING OUT TO THE FUTURE IN
TERMS OF THE DEMOGRAPHICS AND
ITS IMPACT ON THE BUDGET SO. WE
DIDN'T HAVE THAT HEARING
APPRECIATE THE INPUT OF THE LA-
DOING SOME HOUSES FOR THAT. AND
RECOGNIZING THAT- YOU KNOW WE
NEED TO BE BETTER PREPARED-
FOR- FOR AGING POPULATION- AND-
APPRECIATE THAT- SUBSEQUENT TO
THAT THE GOVERNOR THEN IN THIS
STATE OF STATE ADDRESS LAST
YEAR TALKED ABOUT AGING CELL
CERTAINLY HERE IN THE SENATE.
BEEN VERY INTERESTED IN THIS
ISSUE WE PREVIOUSLY HAD UNDER.
CENTER CAROL LOOP SELECT
COMMITTEE ON AGING AS WELL WHO.

FASTER WE- MILLION DOLLARS FOR
AN ACTUARIAL STUDY I AUTHORED

KNOW YOU'RE LOOKING AT LIKE
DIFFERENT TYPES OF SERVICES
IT'S ADDRESS SO. HE GIVE ME A
SENSE OF TIMELINE ON WHEN WE
MIGHT GET- THIS. FEASIBILITY
ACTUAR ANALYSIS OF CELSIUS AS
FINANCING YES I CAN GIVE YOU A
HIGH LEVEL IT'S ACTUALLY BEING
HANDLED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF
HEALTH CARE SERVICES SO THE
HIGHEST LEVEL WERE EXPECTING
THE REPORT FROM THE CONTRACTOR
THIS SUMMER. BUT WE CAN FOLLOW
UP WITH MORE DETAILS
SPECIFICITY AROUND THAT. I
YOU'LL SEE THE STAKEHOLDER
REPORT DOES INCLUDE
RECOMMENDATIONS ABOUT UNIVERSAL
PUBLIC BENEFIT- BUT THOSE THAT
THAT DATA ANALYSIS FROM THE
ACTUAR ALSO IS NOT YET
AVAILABLE OKAY BUT THAT'S ON
GOING RIGHT NOW INSPECTED
SOMETIME IN THE SUMMER PERHAPS
ALL RIGHT. WE WILL CONSULTANT
FIRM ON THAT OKAY AND
APPRECIATE THAT. AND THEN WHEN
ACTUALLY WHEN THE OTHER- THINGS
THAT I WANT TO ALSO TOUCH ON IS
AND THIS IS MORE IN THE
OVERVIEW SECTION- BUT- THE-
AGING AND DISABILITY RESOURCE
CONNECTION- BOTH. I UNDERSTAND
THAT. IS SO THIS USE OF HAVING
FUN THE BY SOME PROGRAM LONG
TIME AGO AND STOP THEM WERE
USING STATE MONEY. AND THEN
WOULD MAKE NOTE THAT AND THE
ANALYSIS THAT- THE INTER AGENCY
AGREEMENTS. BETWEEN CD A AND D.
C. S. ACTUALLY THIS HAS A DATE
OF JAN THIRTY TWENTY NINETEEN
IS THAT CORRECT. IT IS SO A
SIDE. IT IS THERE IS KERN
INTERAGENCY AGREEMENT BETWEEN

WITH DH YES TO- RENEW THAT AYE
AYE AGENCY AGREEMENT- TO
CONTINUE TO DO THE GOOD WORK
THAT WE HAD PREVIOUSLY DONE ON
EIGHTY RC IN ADDITION TO
AUGMENTING IT WITH THE DOLLARS
FOR THE GRANT FUNDING THAT WE

BUDGET PACKAGE. OKAY SO BE GOOD
IF WE CAN GET AN UPDATE ON THE
STATUS I REALIZE AND APPRECIATE
HERE THAT AGENCIES ARE STILL
WORKING TOGETHER AGREEMENT OR
NOT AGREEMENT BUT JUST ONE YET
THAT STATUS ON THE ACTUAL
THEIR- DEGREE MOST ACTION
RENEWED OR NOT AND WE WILL
FOLLOW UP WITHOUT SPECIFIC
SPELL CASTRATION. AND THEN ONE
OTHER. OTHER JUST FOR FOLLOW UP
THE TAIL IS SET LAST YEAR WE
ALSO FUNDED- FIVE MILLION FOR.
THE LOCAL TO PLACE THE AREA
AGENCIES AGING ON INJURY
PREVENTION EDUCATION AND HOME
MODIFICATIONS AND THAT'S
SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN- IT'S
VERY IMPORTANT TO ON MY
COLLEAGUES AND ALSO MYSELF- TO
TRY TO PREVENT AND
CIVILIZATION. DO YOU HAVE DO
YOU HAVE A STATUS ON HOW WHAT
THE UPTAKE WAS ON THAT BY THE
TRIPLE A IS SO WITH SAYS HERE
THAT YOU HOW HE GILLIAM UP WITH
TO PARTICIPATE TRIPLE A.'S. IS
THERE SOME SO. TO ANY I DON'T
AND THAT EACH. A IS THAT HAVE
DIFFERENT. SO FORTH JUST ONE
LIKE WHERE W ARE ON. THOSE
FUNDS THIS ON TRACKING WEATHER

THAT ARE STILL IN PROCESS AND
ALSO. IS THAT THE RIGHT WAY TO
DO IT JUST DISTRIBUTED EQUALLY
ARE- AND SHOULD WE BE LOOKING
AT MORE OR MONEY OR NOT. FOR
SOMETHING LIKE THIS. SURE SO-
WE WORKED COLLABORATIVELY WITH-
OUR PARTNERS THE AGENCIES ON
AGING. AS WELL AS THEIR MEMBER

DEVELOP THE ALLOCATION
METHODOLOGY- WITHOUT WE WERE
ABLE TO GET THOSE CONTRACTS OUT
YES WE DID- THOSE DISCUSSIONS-

HAD ONE PARTNER WHO DID NOT-
OPT IN TO RECEIVE THOSE FUNDS-
AFTER THOSE- DOLLARS ARE

LET'S MOVE ON TO THE NUMBER TWO

SUMMARIZE- THIS B. C. P. IS IT
TO FIND THE RELOCATION- OF- THE

MILLION DOLLARS GENERAL FUND

RENT EXPENSES- CDA AS WELL AS

FIFTEEN YEARS- IT'S CURRENTLY
IN A STATE OF DISREPAIR. THERE
ARE HEALTH AND SAFETY ISSUES
BIG TRUCK ISSUES- IN ADDITION
TO IT NO LONGER MEETS OUR
BUSINESS AND OPERATIONAL NEEDS
IT NO LONGER HAS TO BE
REQUIRED- WE'VE GONE SO FAR AS
TO START CONVERTING SHARED
SPACES AND MEETING SPACE. IS IT
TOO EMOTIONAL WORK SPACES FOR
STAFF AS WE HAVE RECEIVED
POSITIONS LAST YEAR- AND AS WE
CONTINUE TO CHANGING-
OPERATIONS SUCH AS GOING TO
CONTINUE BEING CONCERNING ISSUE
DEFINITELY WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH
MEETING SPACE TO HOLD. ARE

ACCESSIBILITY EIGHTY
ACCESSIBILITY. THERE WE REQUIRE
TO DO OUR BUSINESS AND TO DO IT
WELL AND NOT JUST TO MAINTAIN
THE STATUS QUO. THANK YOU VALUE.
REVIEW THE B. C. B. AND I'M NOT
CONCERNED FINANCE BECOMES.
NOTHING FURTHER AT THIS TIME
THANK YOU I THANK YOU COMMENTS
FROM COMMITTEE MEMBERS- SO I
JUST TO CLARIFY THE- ONGOING IS
FOR BECAUSE OF THE INCREASE IN
RENTS AND I UNDERSTAND FROM
WHAT YOUR DESCRIPTION IS
PROBABLY LARGER SPACE ETCETERA.
MAYBE IT'S MORE A QUESTION FOR
DDS BUT DO YOU KNOW HOW LONG
THE LEASES- WE ARE NEGOTIATING
THAT RIGHT NOW- BUT OUR INITIAL
PROPOSED TERM IS SEVEN YOUR
FIRM- FOURTEEN YOUR WHOLE. OKAY
I'M LEASES SO IT'LL BE THAT
SEVEN YOUR FIRM SEVEN YOUR SOFT
OKAY ALL RIGHT. BECAUSE I
REPRESENTS SACRAMENTO I'VE LOW
MORE FAMILIAR TO YOU AT SOME OF
THAT SO I'M GLAD TO HEAR THAT
WE'RE LOOKING AT A LONG. LONG
TERM LEASE AND SOME OF THESE
VERY SHORT LEASES WHERE WE CAN
HAVE MORE TIES THE IMPROVEMENTS
SAID THAT ACTUALLY CAUSES OR
RENT TO BE A LOT HIGHER THAN IT
NEEDS TO BE. SOME HAPPY TO HEAR
THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A
LONGER TERM LEASE THAN A ULTRA
SHORT WANT. THAT OKAY. ALL
RIGHT WE SHOULD THAT OKAY NO
THE QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS LET'S
MOVE ON TO ISSUE NUMBER THREE
WHICH IS ACTUALLY A PROPOSAL
FOR INVESTMENT SO I'M GONNA ASK
YOU JUSTICE AND WHEN THE STAY
PUT AND THEN IF PLEASE COME UP-
SO WE HAVE- THE CALIFORNIA
ASSOCIATION AREA EIGHT.
AGENCIES ON AGING- THE REQUEST
YES PLEASE COME UP TO THE-
TABLE HERE. I LIKE THAT THE
AGENCY STAY AT THE TABLE
BECAUSE THEY MIGHT. I HAVE I
HAVE SOME QUESTIONS FOR THEM
ABOUT IT SO. OKAY RIGHT WELCOME
IF YOU CAN INTRODUCE YOURSELF
AND THEN ASK IF YOU CAN. KEEP
YOUR PRESENTATION TO THREE
MINUTES LESS THAN THREE MINUTES
IS FINE TOO SO I'M QUITE CAMPY
AND I'M THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
OF THE TRIPLE A OF SANTA CRUZ
AND SAN BENITO COUNTY. AND A
MEMBER OF THE MASTER PLAN I
STAKEHOLDER ADVISORY COMMITTEE.
SO FIRST OFF I WANT TO THANK
BOTH OF YOU FOR WHAT HAS
HAPPENED LEGISLATIVELY IN TERMS
OF JUSTICE. PRIEST INTEREST IN
AGING ISSUES IN MOVING THAT
TOPIC FORWARD. AND THE PROPOSAL
THAT I'M HERE TO TALK ABOUT IS
SPECIFIC TO EIGHTY R. C. SO
THANKS FOR CARING THAT ALSO. SO
HOW ON WE'VE TALKED ABOUT IT A
LITTLE BIT ALREADY AND EIGHTY
OR SEIZE ARE REALLY THE HUB OF
A NO WRONG DOOR SYSTEM. IN WALL
GETTING ACCESS TO SERVICES
ISN'T ALWAYS THE SEXIEST THING
OUT THERE IT'S NOT A SEXY IS
HOME DELIVERED MEALS FOR
EXAMPLE IT'S PROBABLY THE MOST
CRITICAL. BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T
KNOW WHERE TO FIND SERVICES
THEY DON'T EXIST SO THE EIGHTY
R. C. MODEL IS JUST TO MAKE
SURE THAT HAPPENS IN THE WAY WE
BUT ALL DREAM IT TO HAPPEN AND
SENATOR I KNOW I'M PREACHING TO
THE CHOIR WITH YOU ABOUT THIS.
BUT IT'S PROBABLY ONE OF THE
MOST IMPORTANT THINGS WE DO IN
TERMS OF MAKING ALL THE
SERVICES AVAILABLE TO OLDER
ADULTS AND PEOPLE WITH
DISABILITIES AVAILABLE AND
MAKING THEM WORK BETTER AND
HAVING THEM BETTER COORDINATED
WITH EACH OTHER. SO THE BILL
LAST YEAR THAT THE SENATOR
KERRY HAS RESULTED IN THEIR
BEING NOW SIX FULLY OPERATIONAL
ADR SEASON THE STATE AND TEN
THAT ARE DESIGNATED AS A
MERGING WHICH MEANS A YEAR FROM
NOW. HOPEFULLY I'LL BE HERE
SAYING THEY ARE NOW SIXTEEN
EIGHTY ARE SEIZE FULLY
OPERATIONAL. THE CHALLENGE WE
HAVE IS WE THINK THIS IS JUST
EXTREMELY VALUABLE. AND IN
ORDER TO MOVE THAT NUMBER FROM
TEN OR SIX TO SIXTEEN AND THEN
HOPEFULLY TO FIFTY EIGHT WE
HAVE ONE IN EVERY COMPANY
THAT'S GOING TO TAKE A
CONTINUED INVESTMENT. SO THIS
BUDGET ALSO IS TO CONTINUE THE
INVESTMENTS TO CREATE MORE ADRS
THESE. PROCESS ANOTHER. SO THE
PROPOSAL YOU'LL SEE IT'S BROKEN
DOWN INTO THREE YEARS WITH THAT
REALIZATION NOT EVERYBODY WILL
DO THIS OVERNIGHT WE'RE ASKING
FOR NINETEEN MILLION AN
ADDITIONAL FUNDS FOR. THE
COMING FISCAL YEAR THIRTY
MILLION IN TWENTY ONE TWENTY
TWO AND FIFTY ONE MILLION IN
TWENTY TWO TWENTY THREE WHICH
WE THINK WE'LL GET. THE PROGRAM
ESTABLISHED STATEWIDE I CAN
ANSWER QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW WE
CAME UP WITH THOSE DOLLARS THE
SHORT ANSWER TO IT IS THAT WE
WANT TO HAVE BASS LINE FUNDS
FOR EVERY EIGHTY R. C. SO THEY
CAN KEEP THEIR DOORS OPEN SO
THEY CAN ACTUALLY OPEN THE
DOORS. AND HAVE A MINIMUM
NUMBER STAFF TO ANSWER THE
PHONE CALLS TO RUN THE PROGRAM
AND MAYBE MORE IMPORTANTLY
NETWORK WITH THE COMMUNITY OF
OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS BECAUSE
THE MODEL ISN'T JUST HAVING ONE
CENTER THAT EVERYBODY GOES TO.
BUT HAVING YOUR ENTIRE
COMMUNITY HOOKED IN WITH THAT
CENTER IN IF NOT BEING ABLE TO
ANSWER ALL THE QUESTIONS FOR
WHERE TO GET SERVICES NO ONE
ENTITY TO GO TO GET THEM FROM.
SO THERE'S DIFFERENT CAPACITIES
OF THAT BUT WE ALSO REALIZE
THAT LARGER POPULATION AREAS
NEED A LOT MORE STAFF THAN WHEN
IT JUST TAKES TO OPEN THE DOOR
SO WE HAVE A WAITED FORMULA
THAT- ESTIMATES THE NUMBER OF
USERS BASED ON DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE POPULATION FIGURES. TO
MAKE SURE THAT EVERY AB R. C.
CANNOT ONLY OPEN THEIR DOOR BUT
ONCE THEY'RE OPEN THEY CAN BE
SUCCESSFUL IN THAT OPERATION SO
WE LOOK AT YOU KNOW POTENTIAL.
SERVE ON OF ALL ADULTS AND
PEOPLE JUST BILL. ON THE
CLOSING I WOULD MAKE IS ON
MONDAY MASTER PLAN FOR AGING
LOOKED AT THE P. L. TSS
SUBCOMMITTEE REPORT LOOK AT.
THINGS COULD IMPLEMENT NOW
BECAUSE JUST YOU SAID WE WANT
TO WAIT FOR EVER FOR THAT PLAN
TO COME OUT AND TAKE ACT. AND
THIS WAS DONE OF ARTISTS AND OF
THOSE TWO THAT READY TO GO NOW
I. WANT A IN. AND ASK FOR THE
OTHER POLLS AND COMMON. OKAY
THANK YOU. I DO. THOSE BUT IT.
STATION PROPOSAL BUT AT ANY
FROM DEPARTMENT OF AGING ABOUT
THE FOR. A LA. IN FINANCE. ALL
RIGHT QUESTIONS FROM COMMITTEE
MEMBERS. SO I DID I DO HAVE A
QUESTION TO AND APPRECIATE YOUR
DESCRIPTION. IN TERMS OF THE
FUNDING FOR EIGHTY ARE SEIZE
JUST CLARIFY IS THAT TOTALLY
STATE FUNDED OR WE ABLE TO DRAW
DOWN MATCHING FUNDS ANY FEDERAL
SUPPORT BECAUSE I KNOW THE
STATUS OF FEDERAL DEMONSTRATION
GRANT BACK IN WAS A TWO
THOUSAND AND NINE BUT SINCE
THEN. SO CAN I JUST SO THIS IS
THIS GOING TO THIS IS SOMETHING
THAT WOULD BE FUNDED SOLELY
THROUGH STATE FUNDS ARE WE
LOOKING AT BE ABLE TO DRAW DOWN
ANY FEDERAL OR OTHER SOURCES OF
MONEY. TO CURRENTLY EIGHTY R.
C. IS FUNDED- SOLELY BY GENERAL
FUND- BUT- DEPARTMENT IS
WORKING COLLABORATIVELY WITH DH
CS AS WELL AS OUR PARTNERS-
TRIPOLI'S ANTI FOR A TO EXPLORE
THE POSSIBILITY- MEDI CAL
ADMINISTRATIVE CLAIMING- TO SEE
IF WE CAN DO SOME DRAW DOWN TO
OFFSET SOME OF THOSE COSTS FOR
THE- PROGRAM OKAY- AND THEN
CHOOSE THAT AND AGAIN I GUESS-
IN TERMS OF A TECHNICAL
STANDPOINT- IS. THIS PROPOSAL A
GIVEN YOUR KNOWLEDGE OF EIGHTY
ARE SEIZE REFLECTIVE OF THE
COSTS THAT WOULD IT TAKE TO GET

WE'RE LOOKING FOR NEXT YEAR. SO
THANK YOU. HI GOOD MORNING YES
YOU HAVE A POWER POINT THAT WAS
HANDED OUT TO ALL- KIND OF GO
THROUGH THAT QUICKLY AND THEN
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS HAPPY
TO RESPOND TO THOSE. SO I THINK
YOU'RE ALL IN HIS THROAT. I
THINK YOU'RE ALL FAMILIAR WITH
IDEA TO SET AND WHO WE SERVE WE
SERVE ELDERLY AND DISABLED
INDIVIDUALS. HOW WE'RE FUNDED-
WE RECEIVE. MEDICAID DOLLARS
FOR ABOUT 98% OF OUR POPULATION
AND FOR THE REMAINING TWO
THAT'S THE STATE COUNTY FUNDED
PROGRAM A LITTLE UNDER 2% FOR
THE RESIDUAL PROGRAM. THE
BUDGET FOR THIS NEXT YEAR IS
PROJECTED AT FOURTEEN POINT
NINE BILLION. WE DID HAVE NEW
AMMO LEASE- FUNDING STRUCTURE
THAT BEGAN IN NINETEEN TWENTY I
THINK YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR A
LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT THAT AS A
PART OF THE NEXT SECTION HERE
SO. I'LL GO FOR SKIP ON THE
FAIR LABOR STANDARDS ACT WHICH
WAS IMPLEMENTED A NUMBER OF
YEARS AGO NOW TWO THOUSAND
SIXTEEN WHICH INTRODUCED OVER
TIME TO OUR PROVIDERS WE WANTED
TO PROVIDE. A LITTLE BIT OF
UPDATE ON VIOLATIONS THAT
SOMETHING THAT YOU OFTEN
INTERESTED IN AND YOU'LL SEE
WE'VE SPLIT OUT BETWEEN PAPER
TIME SHEETS AN ELECTRONIC-
VERSIONS WE JUST WANTED TO
SHARE AS WE'RE MOVING TO THE
ELECTRONIC- FORMAT FOR
SUBMISSION OF TIME THAT THAT
HAS BEEN A REAL BENEFIT TO-
SUPPORT. OUR PROVIDE IN NOT
INCURRING VIOLATIONS SO IF YOU
LOOK TO DECEMBER NINETEEN ON
THE NEXT TWO PAGES OR THE
PAPER. REDUCING THE NUMBER OF
PEOPLE USING PAPER AS THEY
TRANSITION SO WE HAD ABOUT A
HUNDRED TWENTY TWO THOUSAND AND
THEY THEY AND KURT ABOUT ONE
POINT THREE OF THEM. A 3% OF
THEM IN KERN A VIOLATION.
WHEREAS IF YOU LOOK AT THE NEXT
PAGE WITH ELECTRONIC TIME SHE'S
ABOUT FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND-
PROVIDERS WERE USING THE
ELECTRONIC METHOD. AND ABOUT
POINT THREE PERCENT- RECEIVED A
VIOLATION THAT'S BECAUSE BOTH
THE TELEPHONE SOLUTION AND THE
ELECTRONIC PUMP UP PORTAL
ONLINE. PROVIDE REAL TIME
PROBLEMS AS PEOPLE ARE
COMPLETING THEIR TIME SHEETS
AND NOT HAS BEEN A REAL BENEFIT.
ON THE NEXT SLIDE SHARES WITH
YOU KIND OF WHAT'S HAPPENING
WITH OUR POPULATION OBVIOUSLY
GROWING PROJECTED AUTHORIZED
CASES FOR THE NEXT YEAR IS
ABOUT SIX HUNDRED AND SIXTEEN
THOUSAND. FOUR PROVIDERS WE
HAVE ABOUT FIVE HUNDRED AND
THIRTY ONE THOUSAND. THE NEXT
TO SLIDE GIVES YOU A LITTLE BIT
OF BREAK DOWN WE'RE WE'RE
SHARING BY AGE THAT SEEMS TO
GIVE A BETTER PICTURE THAN JUST
AGED BLIND AND DISABLED WHICH
IS ALWAYS A LITTLE DIFFICULT
AND CHALLENGING TO. CLARIFY SO
YOU'LL SEE ABOUT FORTY FIVE
APPROXIMATELY 45% OF FOLKS ARE
UNDER SIXTY FIVE AND ABOUT 55%
OF FOLKS ARE OVER SIXTY FIVE.
ABOUT 15% ARE EIGHTY FIVE AND
OLDER AND ABOUT 8% ARE MINORS.
THEN WE PROVIDED A LITTLE BIT
OF INFORMATION ABOUT OUR
PROVIDERS AND- ABOUT FIFTY
ALMOST 54% LIVE WITH THEIR
RECIPIENTS. ABOUT 80% WORK FOR
ONE RECIPIENT AND- ALMOST 20%
WORK FOR MORE THAN ONE
RECIPIENT. THE NEXT PAGE
PROVIDES A LITTLE BIT
INFORMATION ABOUT OUR RELATIVE
PROVIDERS SO YOU'LL SEE ALL- A
LITTLE OVER 72% OF OUR
PROVIDERS ARE RELATIVES AND
THAT GIVES YOU THE BREAK OUT
OF. THAT THE RELATIONSHIPS.
DOES THE TALKS A LITTLE BIT
ABOUT SICK LEAVE THAT WAS
IMPLEMENTED NOW BACK IN- JULY
OF EIGHTEEN. IT'S BEEN GOING
FINE- THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE
THAT WE HAVE IN THIS AREA IS
REALLY EDUCATING PEOPLE THAT
IT'S A OF ITON ITS
AVAILABILITY AND USAGE SOME OF
WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THAT AREA
TO ASSIST WITH THAT IS THAT WE
DO SEND OUT ANNUAL
NOTIFICATIONS AND WE ALSO AS
PEOPLE ARE TRANSITIONING INTO
THE ELECTRONIC FORMAT FOR
SUBMITTING TIME. THEY'RE ABLE
TO SUBMIT THEIR SICK TIME THERE
AND THEY CAN SEE THAT IN THE
PORTAL WE WILL BE ABLE TO. POST
INFORMATION IN THE PORTAL AND
EMAIL INFORMATION OUT TO
PROVIDE SOME ADDITIONAL
EDUCATION TO PEOPLE OF ABOUT
THAT AVAILABLE BENEFIT SO
HOPEFULLY THAT USAGE WILL COME
UP. THIS NEXT FISCAL YEAR THEY
WILL BE GETTING SIXTEEN HOURS
INSTEAD OF THAT SO UP FROM THE
AGE WHERE WE STARTED. THE
ELECTRONIC VISIT VERIFICATION-
SO WE'RE IN THE MIDST OF TRêN
TRANSITION WITHOUT WE BEGAN
WITH OUR PILOT IN JULY AND LA
COUNTY WHICH WENT. REALLY WELL
WAS VERY SUCCESSFUL LA COUNTY
IS 99% OF THEIR PROVIDERS AND
RECIPIENTS HAVE TRANSITION TO
THE ELECTRONIC. VISIT
VERIFICATION TOOL- WE ARE IN
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE REMAINDER
OF THE COUNTIES WHICH ARE BEING
DONE IN WAVES TO MONTH WAVES
THE FIRST ONE WAS IN JANUARY
FEBRUARY THE SECOND ONE IS
BEGINNING NOW MARCH APRIL-
ABOUT. JUST ABOUT 80% OF
RECIPIENTS SOME PROVIDERS ARE
CURRENTLY TRANSITION TO AN
ELECTRONIC- BOB PROCESS FOR
SUBMITTING THEIR TIME SO WE'RE
WE'RE MOVING ALONG WITH THAT
WELL- THE IT GIVES YOU THE
SCHEDULE THERE OF- THE
REMAINDER OF THE COUNTIES. AND
THE LAST THING WE WANT TO COVER
WAS THE NEW MANDATE TO MOVE TO
DIRECT DEPOSIT OR PAY CARD ON
THE THAT IS EFFECTIVE JULY
TWENTY TWENTY ONE SO WE HAVE.
ALMOST A YEAR AND A HALF BEFORE
THAT GOES INTO A FACT THAT
SOMETHING THAT WE ARE WORKING
ON IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE
ROLLOUT FOR ELECTRONIC TIME
SHEETS TO EDUCATE PEOPLE THAT.
I HAVE FOUND THAT PEOPLE USING
ELECTRONIC ON BOTH ENDS ARE
GETTING PAID WITHIN THREE OR
FOUR DAYS TYPICALLY. SO THAT'S
A REAL BENEFIT FOR OUR
PROVIDERS- YOU'LL SEE AND THE
LAST PAGE CHART THAT IT SHOWS
ABOUT. 56% AND THE MOST RECENT
I SAW WAS A LITTLE OVER 61% OF
PROVIDERS HAVE ALREADY
TRANSITIONS TO. AN ELECTRONIC-
MODE OF PAYMENT AS WELL. MAKE
INCOME IS FROM LA ON THE REVIEW.
WE'VE REVIEWED THE- I JUST AS
BUDGET ESTIMATES AND OVERALL
REYES NO MAJOR CONCERNS THERE
ARE A FEW AREAS IN WHICH WE
FLAG TO THAT ESTIMATES MAY BE
DIFFERENT- IN MAY WHEN WE GET
MOST UP TO DATE DATA
SPECIFICALLY HOURS PER CASE IN
THE CAR HERE ARE WITH US MADE
IN NINETEEN TWENTY MAYBE
HIGHER. JUST GIVEN THAT AVERAGE
ANNUAL GROWTH ALWAYS BEEN BROWN
OR HAS RECENTLY BEEN 2% BUT IN
THE BUDGET IT'S RELATIVELY FLAT
WHEN YOU COMPARE TO EIGHTEEN
NINETEEN LEVELS BUT THEN ALSO
PAID SICK LEAVE UTILIZATION I'M
GETTING BETTER ESTIMATES ON
THAT TO THEN DETERMINE WHAT
UTILIZATION WOULD LOOK LIKE IN
THE OUT YEARS REFLECT THAT AS
WELL. A MORE LONG TERM THING
THAT WE WOULD MONITOR IS THE
NEW POLICY OF EXPANDING LIKE
HELL TO ON CAN SEE. THE AND
THAT WOULD BY JUST SAYS THE
THAT WILL BE LOOKING FOR INFO
YEARS GETTING BETTER
UNDERSTANDING THOSE ASSESSMENTS.
THANK YOU FINANCED. I CAN JUST
STEP CAN. WHERE YOU KNOW. THE
MAY REVISIONS. WE WILL BE A
WORKING WITH THIRD. SOCIAL SIR.
TARA YOU KNOW CASELOAD COSTS-
HOURS PER CASE- SO YOU WILL BUT
THERE WILL BE AN UPDATE AT ME
REVISION. BASED ON YOU KNOW
ADDITIONAL DATA. THANK YOU.
RIGHT QUESTIONS FOR COMMITTEE
MEMBERS. OKAY SO I DID A FEW
QUESTIONS SO I THINK IS ONLY A
REFERENCE TO THE IN TERMS OF-
THE SO WE HAVE AN INCREASING
NUMBER OF CASES RIGHT AGING
POPULATION- MORE PEOPLE WHO
NEED THAT SUPPORT BUT ALSO THE
HOURS PER CASES ALSO BEEN
INCREASING. CAN YOU NOW WELL
IT'S- THE CAN YOU ELABORATE ON
PERHAPS THAT MEANS THAT DO YOU
HAVE SOME IDEA OF THIS TO WHY
THE HOURS PER CASE IS ALSO
INCREASING AS WELL. SO THAT
MEANS THAT NOT ONLY OF COURSE
IT MORE PEOPLE TAKE CARE OF THE
FAMILY NEED MORE SERVICES ARE
MORE. DID OUT OF THIS INCREASE
INTENSITY OR SOME OTHER THINGS
SO CAN HE SPEAK TO THAT I CAN
CERTAINLY START TO IN MY OWN
BUT MAYBE YOU CAN SPEAK TO WITH
THE S. AND DO YOU HAVE SOME
DATA ON THAT. I THINK SAID A
PORTION OF IT COMES FROM THAT-
NOT ONLY ARE PEOPLE AGING BUT
ALSO PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES
ARE AGING AND AS PEOPLE WITH
DISABILITIES AGE THEN IF THERE
IS THAT. MORE EXTENSIVE
SERVICES- NEEDS THAT THEY HAVE.
WE ALSO ARE. SEEING MORE
CHILDREN OF ARE SO LIKE
PROTECTIVE SUPER WITH ASH
BURGERS AUTISM THOSE KINDS OF
ON DISABILITIES AND- I THINK
THOSE ARE SOME OF WHAT PLEASE
INTO THAT IT IS AN AREA WE ARE
WEAK WE CONTINUE TO WORK IN
COLLABORATION WITH OUR COUNTY
IS TO ENSURE THAT- THE-
ASSESSMENT TOOLS ARE UTILIZED
IN A GOOD WAY. LAKE ACCURATE A
BOMB. AND SO THAT THINGS ARE
DONE AS CONSISTENTLY AS
POSSIBLE ACROSS THE BOARD AND
SO THAT WE'RE ABLE TO CLEARLY
UNDERSTAND. WHAT'S HAPPENING
WITH OURS WITH OUR SERVICE
LEVELS OKAY EMPTORIS BECAUSE
WE'RE MOVING TO LIKE TRYING
VISIT VERIFICATION AND I KNOW
WE'VE HAD SOME DISCUSSIONS IN
THE PAST ABOUT THIS BURDENS INS
ISSUES BUT I WAS ALSO WONDERING
IS YOU'RE TRANSITIONING PEOPLE
FROM PAPER TO THE TRIBE
VERIFICATION. IT SEEMS LIKE
BASED ON WHAT YOU PRESENT THAT
MADE IS. THE LIKE TRYING
VERIFICATION SEEM LIKE IT'S A
MORE ACTORS FIVE NOT QUITE THE
RIGHT WORD BUT PEOPLE ARE
BETTER ABLE TO DOCTOR AND
TONIGHT ON OF THAT SO CAUSES
ANY SMALL ADJUSTMENT IN. THE
HOURS IN THE CASE BECAUSE OF
YOUR BETTER ABLE TO THAT
SOMETHING'S MAKE OUT SO I DON'T
KNOW IN TERMS OF THE PAPER
PROCESS REALLY TRONIC PROCESS
WITH YOU SEEN ANY SALACIOUS IN.
RULES DOCUMENT. HABITS AND THE
AND THE LEVEL DOCUMENT. DEBTS
THAT'S A THAT'S IT SO BECAUSE
NEW THE ERROR A SEEMS LIKE A
DROPPED WHEN USED ELECTRONIC.
ARM I THINK THAT I DON'T KNOW
THAT THAT'S IMPACTED
NECESSARILY THAT HOURS OKAY I
THINK THAT IT HAS- SUPPORTED
PEOPLE IN BEING ABLE TO. TRACK
TRACK IN AND ARE THERE TIME AND
BE AWARE IF THEY'VE MADE AN
ERROR ON AND SO THAT'S BEEN A
POSITIVE THING. ALRIGHT AND LOW
QUESTION ACTUALLY FOR FINANCE
SO I MEAN PLEASE OF COURSE WE
PASS A BUDGET EACH YEAR FOR THE
NEXT YEAR BUT WE ALSO IN A
BUDGETS QUESTIONS TALK ABOUT
OUT YEARS RIGHT WHAT NOW WHAT
AND SO WE LOOK AT- THE OUT
YEARS- SO IN TERMS OF THE OUT
YEAR NUMBERS FOR- FOR AYE HSS
AND OTHER THINGS RELATED TO
SERVICES FOR SENIORS ARE WE-
RATING IN THE- INCREASING
DEMOCRATS. CHANGES REALIZING
THAT MAYBE SOME POLICY CHANGES
IN THE FUTURE BUT STILL YOU
KNOW WE'RE- SO I MEAN WHAT'S
THE PROJECTED GROSS OF AYE TO
ASSESS YEAR BY YEAR OVER INTO
THE OUT YEARS. SO WE DO NOT
SPECIFICALLY- YOU KNOW FACTOR
IN DEMOGRAPHIC CHANGES. BUT
WHAT I WILL SAY IS THAT- YOU
KNOW THIS PROGRAM KIND OF
TRACKS WITH WITH MEDI CAL
ESSENTIALLY SO- AS YOU KNOW.
BECAUSE BECAUSE GENERALLY THE
WAY INTO I JUST **** THROUGH
THE MEDI CAL PROGRAM. SO WHAT
WE GENERALLY DO IS WE LOOK AT
THE TRANS- THE DEPARTMENT LOOKS
AT THE TRENDS AND HOW HOW CASE.
HAS INCREASINGLY WHAT.
PROJECTED GO YOU KNOW WHAT
WE'RE BRIDGE BAY ON. CHANGES
BUT GENERALLY NO WE DO NOT- YOU
KNOW FACTOR IN DEMOGRAPHICS-
IT'S HARD TO PREDICT- YOU KNOW
WHO. IS GOING TO BE USING I HSS
IT- WE KNOW THAT WITH THE AGING
POPULATION THERE WILL YOU KNOW
THERE ARE GOING TO BE- PROBABLY
MORE- PEOPLE ARE ELIGIBLE. BUT
AS MISS THOMPSON WAS SAYING WE
ALSO HAVE- YOU KNOW THIS
POPULATION ARE HIGHER-
POPULATION OF. ON THE BILL AT
THE SITE COMING INTO THIS
PROGRAM SO YOUNGER- POPULATION
WITH HIRE ME. THE PROGRAM HAS
BEEN GROWING PRETTY STEADILY
OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS- I
THINK- IT THAT TREND IS
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE AS WE MOVE
FORWARD OKAY SO I GUESS THIS IS
THE IS A MORE CONCRETE QUESTION
IS THAT AS WERE LOOKING AT OUT
YEARS WHAT IS THE PROJECTED
GROSS THAT YOU'RE USING THAT
FINANCES USING AND MAYBE LA-
CAN ALSO ANSWER WHETHER LA IS
LOOKING AT IS WE'RE JUST YOU
KNOW WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THE
BUDGET IS ABOUT NEXT YEAR BUT
THEN YOU SAY WELL LOOK AT YOUR-
IMPACTS SO. WHAT THREE. USING
FOR PROJECTIONS FOR THE I GUESS
THAT WE GOT LIKE FIVE YEARS I
THINK. FIVE YEAR ELLIS THOUGH
YEARS TWO THREE OBVIOUSLY I CAN
CHANGE WITH NEW INFORMATION
THAT'S- EVEN DO MAY REVIE FOR
THE SAME YEAR BUT I MEAN WHAT.
WHAT GROWTH ARE WE PLANNING FOR
AND I'D JUST US- AS WE'RE GOING
AS WE- TALK ABOUT THESE OUT
YOUR PROJECTIONS. TO WE ARE WE
ARE PROJECTING SIGNIFICANT
GROWTH I APOLOGIZE YOU DON'T
HAVE THAT INFORMATION IN FRONT
OF ME BUT WE CAN DEFINITELY GET
BACK TO YOU- GENERALLY THIS
PROGRAM COST WISE- SINCE. YOU
KNOW THAT. I WOULD SAY PROBABLY
OVER THE LAST- TEN YEARS IS
PROBABLY ON- THAT TOTAL
EXPENDITURES HAVE BEEN GROWING
AROUND LIKE A 10211% CLIP
ANNUALLY- AGAIN WE WILL YOU
KNOW WE HAVE TO LOOK AT CERTAIN
POLICY CHANGES SO THE RECENT-
CHANGE IN THE COUNTY I. SYSTEM
A WE- ARMENIANS ABOUT LEVEL
THAT IS GOING TO THAT FACTORS
IN TO OUR GROWTH FACTOR. UP TO
OUR- THE INCREASED COST TO THE
STATE. IT'S YOU KNOW AGAIN A
LOT OF IT IS ALSO BASED OFF THE
GROWTH IN THE SLOPE THAT WE SEE
AND I THINK WERE SOMEWHERE IN
THE- 5% ANNUALLY- IS WHAT THE
CASELOAD HAS BEEN GROWING BY.
US ALL THOSE FACTORS GO INTO
IT- I CAN'T I DON'T HAVE THE
NUMBERS HERE I DON'T KNOW IF MY
COLLEAGUE LA- DOES BUT WE CAN
WE CAN DEFINITELY GET BACK TO
YOU ABOUT WHAT WERE. WHAT WE
THINK THE GROWTH RATE IS OVER
THE NEXT SEVERAL YEARS IN TERMS
OF EXPENDITURES OKAY SO I
THINK- THAT IS ALWAYS HOPEFUL
BECAUSE SOMETIMES WE DO HAVE
THESE DISCUSSIONS ABOUT WELL WE
CAN'T YOU KNOW WE'RE- NO ONE
TIMERS IS ON GOING WHAT'S- HOW
MUCH DO WE HAVE ON GOING IT
CETERA AND- I'D- NOTE. GIVEN
THE PREVIOUS WORK OF THE
SUBCOMMITTEE SAYING THAT WE
NEED TO INCORPORATE THE
DEMOGRAPHICS THE REALIZE
DEMOCRATS IS ONLY ONE FACTOR OF
MANY AND HOW MUCH WOULD
ACTUALLY SPEND- BUT I THINK IT
IS SOMETHING THAT. WE WANT TO
BE YEAH. WELL IT'S ACTORS WHICH-
PROJECTIONS WHERE WE'RE GOING
TO GO- IT DAILY AT THE ONE A
COMMENT ON THIS ISSUE AS WELL.
AS PART OF OUR ALSO FISCAL
FORECAST THAT WE DO NOVEMBER
AND THEN ALSO IN MAY- WE ALSO
LOOK AT TO PROGRAM GROWTH I
THINK SPECIFICALLY WHAT YOU'RE
MENTIONING IS IT'S NOT JUST
CASELOAD IT'S THE POLICY
IMPACTS AND ACCOUNTING FOR
THOSE AND WHEN WE DO LOOK AT
THOSE IN THE OUT YEARS WE TRIED
TO ACCOUNT TO THE EXTENT
POSSIBLE- THE SIZE OF THE POOL
OF INDIVIDUALS THAT WOULD BE
AFFECTED BY THOSE POLICIES TO
THAN COSTA IN THE FUTURE BUT
THAT QUESTION THAT YOU RAISE OF
EXPLICITLY FACTORING AGAIN
CHANGING DEMOGRAPHICS WITHIN
THAT SHORT OUT YOUR WINDOW. IS
SOMETHING THAT WE'VE BEEN
LOOKING AT AS WELL AND IMPROVE
THAT WE CULD ON OUR FISCAL
FOR- I DON'T KNOW SPECIFICALLY
WHAT WE ESTIMATE IN THE OUT
YEARS BUT I JUST KNOW IN THE
BOOK IN THE WINTERS BUDGET THE
THAT THEY'RE ESTIMATING AND THE
GENERAL FUND IN TWENTY TWENTY
ONE IS SIXTEEN PER SAID THE
EXTENT CARRY FOR DOUBT YOU ZERO
SAN MAGNET THAT WERE TO UP BUT
AGAIN THAT SICK PERCENT CAPTURE
RECENT POLICY DECISION THAT
HAVE IN SOME CASES TO SHIP. OR
CALL TO THE GENERAL FUND. ALL
RIGHT. APPRECIATE THAT AND- I
THINK THAT YOU KNOW WHAT MY
THINGS WE WANT TO BE SURE'S
SAYS WERE TALKING AND I MEAN
THIS. SERVICES FOR THE- FOR
PEOPLE DISABILITIES AND WHO ARE
AGING AND NEED- THE SERVICES
ARE NO WE WANNA BE SURE WERE
PREPARED FOR THAT I WOULD ALSO
WANT TO MAKE NOTES- BECAUSE AS
YOU GIVE US ARE TALKING ABOUT
YEAH WHAT WE'RE PROJECTING AND
THE INCREASES THAT THIS IS
BEING DRIVEN PARTLY BY AGAIN AN
AGING POPULATION- WE WANT TO
HELP TAKE CARE OF PEOPLE WHO
HAVE DISABILITIES SO THEY CAN
THE FULL LIVES I MEAN THAT'S
PART OF OUR COMMITMENT SO WE
HAVE AN INCREASE DOWN THE GOOD
NEWS IS WE HAVE- PEOPLE WHO WE
CAN TAKE CARE OF FULLER LIVING
WHO. WHO WRITES FOR FOUR EIGHT
ANOTHER THING AND THEN THE
OTHER THING I DO ALSO WANT TO
RECOGNIZE YOU WERE TALKING
ABOUT THIS ISSUE ABOUT TO
ASSESS THAT I JUST A STILL A
ALTERNATIVES TO
INSTITUTIONALIZATION SO AS
WE'RE LOOKING GOING LOOK AT THE
NUMBER. ISN'T THIS AND THAT'S-
THE CHALLENGE. WE ALSO HAVE TO
RECOGNIZE ALTERNATE. TO NOT
DOING IS EITHER SPENDING EVEN
MORE THROUGH
INSTITUTIONALIZATION OR NOT
PROVIDING SERVICES AND- THE
CONSEQUENCES THOSE HAVE SO I
JUST WANNA BE SURE WE FRAME IN
THAT REGARD IT'S NOT THAT- WELL
WE A LOOK OUT FAST IS GOING
AND- WE JUST NOT SPEND MONEY ON
THAT- SO I HOPE THAT WE
RECOGNIZE THAT MANY OF THE
ALTERNATIVES AND FOR ACTUALLY
COSTS EVEN MORE. IS AND IS PART
OF THE FUNCTION OF THE FACT
THAT DEALER STATE IS GETTING
OLDER AND- WE HAVE PEOPLE HO
NEED SUPPORT TO HELP- SO I DID
WHAT I RECOGNIZE THAT AND- SO
WE CAN GET BETTER DIAZ GET BACK
TO THAT- JUST- AGAIN BECAUSE I
KNOW THE DISCUSSIONS WILL BACK
ABOUT. WHAT ARE. HOW YOU'RE
SPENDING IS GOING TO BE ABLE
TALK ABOUT THIS YEAR'S BUDGET
SO JUST. KNOWING FOR WE ARE ON
THIS PROGRAM IS GOING TO BE
PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT. OKAY
RIGHT. OKAY SO I GUESS MAY
REVISE WILL GET SOME UPDATED
NUMBERS THAT ALL RIGHT ALL
RIGHT OKAY SO ISSUE NUMBER TWOS
THE UPDATE ON THE AYE TO ASSESS
MOE. IN ITS OF EFFORTS AND IF
YOU CAN PLEASE INTRODUCE
YOURSELF FIRST FOR THE RECORD.
TESTING AT THE CALIFORNIA STATE
ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES THANK
YOU. ALL RIGHT- SO HE'S GOT
PRESENT ON THIS ISSUE. RIGHT.
OKAY SO IN NINETEEN TWENTY THE
I JUST US I'M A E. WAS
REPLACED- AHEAD AFTER DOING
SOME ANALYSIS AS A PART OF THE
SIXTEEN SEVENTEEN- AND OF THE
COORDINATED CARE INITIATIVE AND
THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THAT OF
THAT EMILY THERE WAS THIS ODD
PART OF THAT WAS TO DO LOOK AT
THAT FUNDING STRUCTURE AND SOME
ANALYSIS AS TO- HOW IT WILL BE
OUR BEST TO GO FORWARD AND AS A
PART OF THAT THE M. THREE BASED
IT WAS PRODUCED BY ABOUT FOUR
HUNDRED AND FORTY THE INSTITUTE
STATEWIDE. AND BE ON ANY WALL
INFLATOR TO THAT- AND HE WAS
REDUCED FROM 7% 24% ALSO THE
APPROACH TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE
FUNDING WAS ALTERED- AND IT IS
AN ALLOCATION- THE NON FEDERAL
SHARE OF THAT ALLOCATION IS A
100% STATE GENERAL FUND- IF THE
COUNTIES CHOOSE TO EXPAND MORE
THAN THAT THE NOT BECOME I
COUNTY. CALL OF THOSE WERE THE
BIG THINGS THAT HAPPEN AS A
PART OF THE NINE TO MOE IT ALSO
DID CONTINUE THE- ELEMENTS
AROUND I HAD LOCAL NEGOTIATIONS
AS FAR AS THE WAGE SUPPLEMENT
WHERE COUNTIES COULD NEGOTIATE
A SUPPLEMENT TO A WAGE THAT
THE- SHARED IN ONE TIME AND
THEN HAN AN ON GOING BENEFITS
TO IT- SITTING ON TOP OF ANY
MINIMUM WAGE INCREASE IT ALSO
CONTINUED AT THE OPTION TO
NEGOTIATE AT. INCREASE ABOVE
WHAT THE STATE PARTICIPATION
CAP WAS AND THE STATE WOULD
SHARE IN UP 210% OVER A THREE
YEAR PERIOD OF THOSE INCREASES
SO THAT WAS ALSO CONTINUED AS A
PART OF THE NINETEEN TWENTY MOE
WE WORKED CLOSELY WITH C. SACK
AND SEE TO BE THE A AND CAPITA
AS A PART OF. THAT ON THE AND
EASY WOULD BE DISTRIBUTED
AMONGST THE COUNTIES AND- SO
THAT WORK WAS COMPLETED AND
THAT- THOSE ALLOCATIONS WERE
DETERMINED. THOSE ARE. KIND OF
THE HIGHLIGHTS OF WHERE WE'RE
AT WITH WITH THE EMILY. I THANK
YOU. NO COMMENT ON THAT FROM
SEIZE ACT YEAH I THINK FOR THE
GREATER VIEW THE MAJOR
PROVISIONS OF THE NEW EMILY
AGAIN JUSTIN GARRETT WITH C.
SACK- TO START OFF WITH
COUNTIES ONE EXPRESS OUR
CONTINUING GRATITUDE TO THE
LEGISLATION THE ADMINISTRATION
FOR THIS NEW EMILY THAT
PROVIDES A MORE SUSTAINABLE
FISCAL STRUCTURE FOR COUNTIES
TO MENINGITIS COST. COMES ARE
PROUD TO ADMINISTER THIS
PROGRAM ON BEHALF OF BEHALF OF
THE STATE ON TOP OF ONE OF OUR
RESIDENTS REMAIN SAFELY IN
THEIR HOME AND WE REALLY
APPRECIATE THE COLLABORATIVE.
PARTNERSHIP WITH DEPARTMENT SO
SERVICES AND DEPARTMENT
FINANCES WE'VE ACCOMPLISHED A
LOT IN THE FIRST EIGHT MONTHS
OF THE NEW FAMILY IN TERMS OF
IMPLEMENTATION. ALSO SOME OF
THOSE- MAJOR SIGNIFICAN ACTIONS
WE'VE TAKEN- WE CONVENED
ACCOUNT GROUP TO DETERMINE THE
INDIVIDUAL AMOUNTS OF THE NEW
EMILY OVER CLOSELY WITH CSS ON
THE FISCAL AND PROGRAMMATIC
AGAINST THOSE OUT COUNTIES. WE
HOSTED- AND LEAD AT ALL DAY AT
TWO HUNDRED PERSON COUNTY STAFF
TRAINING TO ENSURE IT IS
ACCURATE ON JUST IN ON THE-
IT'S GOING BACK TO THE
PROVISION AND WE MAINTAIN.
CONSIDER OPEN COMMUNICATE AT
THE STATE LEVEL WITH PROVIDING
UNIONS TO ENSURE CONTINUED
PROGRESS ON. THE MARKET. ON THE
ISSUE OF I SAYS CALL BARGAINING.
AND LEGISLATURE MAY IT CLEAR
LAST YEAR VERY IN. IN SO THEM I
DO AGREEMENTS BE REACHED AND
MORE PROGRESS ON THIS AND I'M-
TO. THAT THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT
HAPPENED. WE HAVE FOURTEEN NEW
AGREEMENT SINCE JULY FIRST-
WHICH IS FAR ABOVE THE HISTORIC
PACE OF NEW AGREEMENTS. WITH
COUNTY SUPERVISORS VERY
DEDICATED THIS PROGRAM. ARE
WORKING VERY HARD TO LOCAL
LEVEL TO ENSURE- THESE WAGE
INCREASES GET ADOPTED- THESE-
FOURTEEN COUNTIES REPRESENT
COUNTY THAT HAD BEEN WITHOUT-
AGREEMENT. AND FOR AN AVERAGE
OF FORTY SEVEN MONTHS SO A
NUMBER OF YEARS. ON THE NOW
HAVE AN AGREEMENT THAT'S
POSSIBLE BECAUSE OF THE IT
SIGNIFICAN IN FUSION OF STATE
AND ALL FUND. FOR THIS PROGRAM
THAT MAKES IT MORE SUSTAINABLE
FOR COUNTIES URBAN. RURAL
SUBURBAN COUNTIES FRESNO SAN
BERNARDINO RIVERSIDE. MARIPOSA
SANTA BARBARA SO NUMBER OF-
COUNTIES HAVE REACHED
AGREEMENTS- IN TERMS OF THE
AMOUNT COUNTIES ARE INVESTING
IN THIS PROGRAM FOR WEIGHT
INCREASES FOR. INCREASES THAT
ARE GOING TO AFFECT THIS YEAR
IT'S MORE THAN. FORTY MILLION
DOLLARS ON AN COUNTY FUNDS.
THAT IS ON TOP OF THE MORE THAN
SEVENTY MILLION DOLLARS A
COUNTIES INVESTED LAST YEAR.
AND WE SAW FOUR MONTHS LAST
FOUR NEW AGREEMENTS CAN BE
REACHED SO WE HELP FOR SOME
ADDITIONAL PROGRESS. LOOKING AT
STATEWIDE- TO LOOK AT THE
NUMBER OF AYE ACCESS PROVIDERS
AND HOW MANY. PROVIDERS WORK IN
A COUNTY THAT HAS A KERN
AGREEMENT IT'S NEARLY NINE TEN
PROVIDERS SO A FULL 80% SO
WE'RE REALLY SICK PLEASE. I
JUST. AS THE FINE THING I'LL
TOUCH ON ON THE BARGAIN IS. ONE
OF THE OTHER NEW PROVISIONS
LAST YEAR WITH THIS. POTENTIAL.
THE RELEASE STATES IT PASSED
LEADERS IT WOULD ONLY OCCUR. IF
FORCED. AND FOR ME SELECT.
WOULD HAVE TO HAVE NEXT
AGREEMENT. THERE HAVE TO GO
THROUGH MEDIATION FACT FINDING
WITH PROVIDING UNION. THE FACT
FINDER WOULD NEED TO ISSUE
RECOMMENDATIONS THAT ARE MORE
FAVORABLE TO THE UNION. AND IT
STILL BE A NINETY DAY PERIOD TO
REACH- A NEW AGREEMENTS ON MAKE
THREE POINTS ABOUT THIS FIRST-
NO COUNTY TO HADN'T ALREADY-GONE TO FACT FINDING HAS YET
UTILIZE THIS PROCESS- AND SO.
YOU KNOW THERE ARE A COUPLE
COUNTIES IT MAY BE GETTING
CLOSE- BUT THEY'RE ONLY AT STEP
ONE OF FOUR OF THESE PROCESSES
YOU KNOW THEY ONLY HAVE.
EXPIRED AGREEMENT THE HAVING A
GUN TO FAX SIGN IN AND THE
OTHER THING SO IS STILL THREE
ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES TO
REACH AN AGREEMENT. TO IF I
COUNTY IN A PROUD UNION GO TO
THIS PROCESS RELATED TO THE 1%
REALIGN WITHHOLDING. IT DOES
NOT MEAN THE COUNTIES
BARGAINING IN BAD FAITH THAT
MEANS THEY'RE ACTIVELY
BARGAINING IN GOOD FAITH. AND
THEY JUST CAN'T EACH AN
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE OFFER
FROM THE COUNTY AND THE OFFER
FROM THE UNION. AND THEN
FINALLY I WOULD JUST SAY WE ARE
FUNDAMENTALLY OPPOSED TO THE
STAKEHOLDER PROPOSAL THAT WOULD
INCREASE THIS- PENALTY AMOUNT
FROM 1% TO SEVEN PERCENT. WE
ALL CAME TOGETHER LAST YEAR SAT
ACROSS THE TABLE REACHED
AGREEMENT ON THIS NEW PROCESS
WITH MINISTRATION OF LET'S. IN
PROVIDE MEANS IN SERENA. NOW BE
YOU KNOW ESSENTIALLY
RENEGOTIATE IN THE MIDDLE OF
THE IMPLEMENTATION. SO WE WOULD
BE OPPOSED TO THAT THAT I KNOW
WILL BE HEARD AND IN A- FEW
PANEL SO NOW SO JUST WANNA WRAP
UP BY. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THE
BEST. A GENERAL FUND. COUNTY
FOR. A FOR WORKING HARD
IMPLEMENTS AND ACHIEVE NEW
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING
AGREEMENTS THANK YOU. THEY COME
IN. LA IN A- AS MY IN THE NEAR
PACKAGE. DUE TO THE CHANGES
THAT WE MADE IN NINETEEN TWENTY
OVER TIME THE GENERAL FUND WILL
TAKE ON- A LARGER SHARE OF
TOTAL COSTS BUT WE WOULD NOTE
THAT THAT IS BY DESIGN- THOSE
CHANGES WERE LARGELY DUE TO
FINDINGS THAT THE- COUNTY COST
PRIOR TO NINETEEN TWENTY DID
NOT ALIGNED WITH THE AVAILABLE
REVENUES COUNTIES HAD TO
NINETEEN EIGHTY ONE REALIGNMENT
TO COVER THOSE COSTS SO BY
REPLACING COUNTY HOSPITAL OR
AMOUNTS TO THAN REFLECT THE
ACTUAL REVENUES THAT THEY HAD
THAT IN AND OF ITSELF RESULTED
IN THOSE COSTS BEING SHIPPED TO
THE GENERAL FUND- SO JUST
INSURING THAT- OVER TIME. THE
COST OF DOING THAT IS CAPTURED
AND FUTURE BUT IT'S- THANK YOU
FINANCE NOTHING FURTHER ASKED
FANS OKAY. ALL RIGHT QUESTIONS
OKAY I GUESS WITH YOURSELF-
APPRECIATE THE- THE
PRESENTATION SO AND SO IN TERMS
OF THE EAT SO YOU MENTIONED
THAT A LOT OF THE- COUNTIES
HAVE COME TO AGREEMENTS AT A
FASTER RATE HOW MANY COUNTIES
STILL DO NOT HAVE AGREEMENTS-
AT THIS POINT. SO WE'RE
CURRENTLY AT A THIRTY FOUR
COUNTIES AND HAVE A CURRENT
EMILY YOUR TENTATIVE
AGREEMENTS- WE HAVE FOURTEEN TO
FIFTEEN COUNTIES THAT ARE
CURRENTLY NEGOTIATING- OTHER
ARMENIAN SMALL AMOUNT OF COUNTY
IS- THERE'S A COUPLE THAT ARE
IMPASSES A COUPLE THAT ARE
WAITING TO HEAR FROM THE UNION
TO INITIATE BARGAINING- SO THAT
YOU KNOW REPRESENTS THE BUT
AGAIN IT'S IF YOU LOOK AT THE
TERMS OF NUMBER PROVIDERS WERE
CLOSE TO EIGHTY EIGHT OR OVER
EIGHTY EIGHT PERCENT. AND WE
HAVE A LOT A LOT THAT ARE
STILL- CURRENTLY NEGOTIATING
AND CERTAINLY HELPFUL THEY'LL
REACH AGREEMENT SAM OKAY SO HE
SAID THIS FOURTEEN YOU DON'T
HAVE ANY AGREEMENT RIGHT NOW
EXISTING AGREEMENT THERE AND
EITHER MID NEGOTIATION OR
SOMETHING WITH. THEIR THE
TWENTY FOUR IS A THIRTY FOUR
HAVE AGREEMENTS TWENTY FOUR
DON'T HAVE AGREEMENTS WERE DONE
OUT FOURTEEN OF THOSE TWENTY
FOUR CURRENTLY NEGOTIATING THE
OTHER TEN OR IN SOME OTHER
STATUS OF. WAITING TO START
BARGAINING OR THE UNIT HAS A
REACH OUT AND ISSUE BARGAINING
AND A COUPLE ART IMPASSE. OKAY
AND DO WE KNOW OF FOR THE ONES
WHO DON'T HOW LONG THEY'VE BEEN
WITHOUT AGREEMENTS AND A SAID
SOMEONE TO GO SHE IN CENTER I
MEAN WE HAVE SOME IDEA WHAT THE
MEDIA AND OUR- MEAN IS OF.
THE TIME THAT THEY'VE BEEN
WITHOUT AGREEMENTS. YEAH I
WOULD DEFINITELY ESTIMATE IT'S
PROBABLY BEEN- SEVERAL YEARS
SOME THAT. YOU KNOW A NUMBER OF
JUST EXPIRED IN THE PAST YEAR
AT NO CINEMA STANISLAUS. MARINE
AS A LIVING WAGE JORDAN SO THAT
ACTIVELY DOING WAGE INCREASES
BUT THEY DON'T HAVE A CURRENT
AGREEMENTS. AND THEN THERE
CERTAINLY ARE SOME THAT WOULD
BE IN THE SITUATION OF THE- THE
NEW AGREEMENT SUGGESTS BEEN
REACH WHERE THEY HAD BEEN WITH
AN EXPIRED AGREEMENT FOR A
NUMBER OF YEARS- YEAH. I DON'T
KNOW THE EXACT AVERAGE AMOUNT
THEM. OKAY SO I MEAN I THINK
THAT'S THE CONCERN I REALIZE
THAT WE- WE CREATE THIS PROCESS
AT CENTER OF BUT THAT WE STOP
COUNTIES THAT- STILL HAVE NOT.
THAT NEED STILL HAVEN'T HAD
AGREEMENT IN YEARS AND- DOCTOR
NOT CLOSE TO GETTING ONE
THAT'S- THAT'S PROBLEMATIC.
YEAH I KNOW CERTAINLY
UNDERSTAND THE CONCERN THERE
WE'RE- DEFINITELY INTERESTED IN
SEEING THAT CONTINUE GRAHAM
IT'S I KNOW AT THE STATE LEVEL.
YOU KNOW WE REACH OUT TO
INDIVIDUAL COUNTIES WHEN THE
UNIONS HAVE HAVE COME TO US
WITH SPECIFIC CONCERNS THEY
HAVE ABOUT THIS YOU CAN GET
INVOLVED IN BARGAINING. BUT WE
MAKE SURE IT'S ACCURATE
UNDERSTANDING OF THE TOOLS AND
THE PPORTUNITIES THAT ARE
AVAILABLE. AND YOU KNOW. IT'S
AND CERTAIN SITUATIONS
BARGAINING TAKES TIME SEEN
FOURTEEN NEW AGREEMENTS IN JULY
FORCES. ARE DIVERSE IS GREAT
PROGRESS. HAVING US STILL A
NUMBER OF COUNTIES CURRENTLY
NEGOTIATING- WORKING TOWARDS A
NEW AGREEMENT- WHEN WE HOPE TO
SEE MORE SOON. RIGHT WELL
APPRECIATE THE PROGRESS BUT I
ALSO CAN UNDERSTAND THE
FRUSTRATION THE WORKERS WHO MAY
HAVE BEEN WORKING FOR YEARS
WITHOUT AGREEMENTS AND STILL
NOT HAVING THEM. SO THAT'S I
MEAN THAT'S- THAT'S THE THING
WE WERE TRYING TO BE SURE WE-
AT. THAT'S NOT FAIR. CELL YEAH.
OKAY AND THEN. I THINK IN TERMS
OF JUST SORT OF LOOKING AT SO
IF WE TALKED ABOUT ISIS. TRY
PROJECT YOU KNOW- CASELOAD
DEMOGRAPHICS BUT ALSO WITH THE
WITH THIS- WITH THE MOE
CHANGES. CERTAINLY I WANT. RE
QUESTION ABOUT THAT BUT- AGAIN.
WE CAN GET A BETTER. IDEA ABOUT
HOW WE'RE PROJECTING OUT INTO
THE OUT YEARS- WITH ALL THE
MULTIPLE CHANGES AN EXACT AND
IT'S BY ALSO HELPFUL IF IT'S
POSSIBLE TO SAY. BYE OKAY WE
EXPECT WE HAVE THE CHANGE PLUS
WORD OF THIS MUCH BECAUSE OF
CASELOADS ARE AGING.
DEMOGRAPHICS THAN WE EXPECT
THIS IS GONE. THIS IS WHAT'S
GOING TO HAPPEN BECAUSE OF THE
AMMO YELLED AT THE EITHER PLUS
OR MINUS DEPENDING. ON THE
STATE BUDGET. AS WERE LOOKING
OUT HERE SO WE CAN. SEE
OBVIOUSLY IS. YEARS GO ON WITH
AND- KNOW WHAT THE ACTUAL
NUMBERS ARE BUT START. DOING
SOME OF THIS MODELING
PROJECTIONS OUT THERE SO WE-
AND- HAVE A BETTER IDEA. THE
FOR GOING. OKAY ALL RIGHT OKAY
I THINK TO A SO RIGHT WELL
THANKS VERY MUCH FOR YOUR
PRESENTATION AND I KNOW THAT
WE'RE GOING TO HEAR- FROM SOME
DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES INTO
THANK YOU ALL RIGHT- ISSUE
NUMBER THREE IS A MANDATORY I
JUST A SOCIAL WORKER TRAINING
TRAILER BILL LANGUAGE. PLEASE
SO- I TOUCHED ON EARLIER ONE OF
THE- CORE THINGS THAT WE'RE
WORKING ON IS ENSURING THAT OUR
ASSESSMENTS ARE. DONE
ACCURATELY AND CONSISTENTLY AND
THAT'S ON ON GOING- WORK THAT
WE DO AND- IT THAT THE
FRAMEWORK AND THE STRUCTURE
THAT REGULATORY GUIDELINES THAT
ARE IN PLACE ARE- AT THAT ALL
OF OUR SOCIAL WORKERS ARE
TRAINED AND EDUCATED ON THOSE
AND THAT THEY'RE BEING USED
CONSISTENTLY ACROSS THE BOARD.
SO THIS PROPOSAL ACTUALLY DOES
TWO THINGS IT- IT DOES A ONE
DAY REFRESHER FOR ALL CURRENT
SOCIAL WORKERS SUPERVISORS AND
PROGRAM MANAGERS TO ENSURE THAT
THOSE TOOLS ARE UNDERSTOOD IT
APPROPRIATELY BEING UTILIZED
AND IT ALSO MANDATES THE SOCIAL
WORKER TRAINING FOR ANY NEW
SOCIAL WORKERS. SO WE'VE HAD
THE TRAINING ACADEMY IN PLACE
FOR QUITE A NUMBER OF YEARS NOW
BUT IT HAS BEEN AN OPTION- AT.
MOST COUNTIES DO TAKE ADVANTAGE
OF THAT OPTION BUT WE DO FEEL
THAT IT IS IMPORTANT THAT ALL
SOCIAL WORKERS HAVE THAT
OPPORTUNITY TO. ENSURE THAT
THEY GET THAT BASS AND
GROUNDING IN THE UNDERSTANDING
OF HOW THE ASSESSMENT IS DONE
AND CONDEMN CONDUCTED TO
ENSURE. PARTICULARLY THAT THERE
IS CONSISTENCY IN THE
ASSESSMENT PROCESS AND THE
AUTHORIZATION OF OURS FOR OUR
RECIPIENTS. OKAY THANK YOU
COMES EMILIO. REVIEW THE BC
PEEN HAVE NO CONCERNS BUT KNOW
THAT THE DEPARTMENT- IS WORKING
ON PROVIDING ADDITIONAL
TECHNICAL- RESPONSES SUCH AS
LIKE A BREAK OUT OF THE COST
AND- WHAT ACTIVITIES ARE
ATTRIBUTED TO THE COST IN THE
SUMMIT IN ALL. THE FINANCE
NOTHING TO ADD OKAY THANK YOU.
SHE WHY YOU'RE TRYING TO DO
THIS IS THAT TO SECURE A CITY
STE. I MEAN TO HAPPY TO HELP-
BUT IS THERE A REASON WE NEED
LAW FOR THIS IN THE AGENCY CAN.
DO THIS WITHOUT. LAW. WELL WE
NEED FOR IT FUNDING PART YOU
NEED FUNDING RIGHT AND THIS IS
A BUDGET YES OKAY GOOD BECAUSE
THIS IS MORE FRAMES AS A FILLER
BILL LANGUAGE FOR OKAY BUT
OBVIOUSLY YEAH WE NEED NEED FOR
FRIGHT FUNDING TO SELL AND THAT
IS IN THE FOR VIEW THE
LEGISLATURE THANK YOU ALL RIGHT
ALL RIGHT SO- WORD LET'S WILL
MOVE ON TO ISSUE NUMBER FOUR
WITH A SERIES OF PROPOSALS FOR
INVESTMENTS- FROM A U. D. W.
ASKED ME- LOCAL THIRTY THREE
THIRTY NINE THIRTY ON A STATE
THEY'RE COMING UP TO THE TBLE
I WILL JUST ALSO BEFORE MENTION
THAT WE'RE GOING TO GO AND ALSO

ACTUALLY PART THE SAME PEACE
BUT THE A B. C. P. FOR
ELECTRONIC VISIT VERIFICATION
FOR I JUST US AS WELL AND THEN
WE'LL TAKE PUBLIC COMMENT AFTER
THAT FOR ALL THE- ISSUES THAT
WE'VE HEARD. FOR BECAUSE THAT'S
ALSO RELATE TO HSS SO JUST SO
FOR EVERYONE'S GAMER FOR PUBLIC
COMMENT THAT SOME WILL BE
TAKING THE PUBLIC COMMENT SO
ALRIGHT SO LET'S GO BACK TO
ISSUE NUMBER FOUR WHICH ARE WE
HAVE A SERIES OF PROPOSALS FOR
INVESTMENTS HERE OF. ONE TWO
THREE FOUR OKAY. DID YOUJUST
WANT TO DO THEM ALL
COLLECTIVELY WILL GIVE YOU MORE
TIME THAN AND SET. OKAY SO- AND
HARD WE COULD DO ONE BY ONE ARE
WE CAN JUST FOR A MOMENT ACTED
STAND. ALL RIGHT SO ARE ABLE TO
THE MOLLEN BUT ONE PRESENTATION
AND THEN WE'LL ASK FOR.
COMMENTS FROM AGENCY IN LA ON
FINANCE THEN OKAY. RIGHT THANK
YOU. SIR GOOD MORNING MY NAME
IS JUSTIN MYERS. I MEAN I AGES
US FROM HER PROVIDER FROM BUTTE
COUNTY. I CARE FOR MY BROTHER
TEAL HE'S A THIRTY ONE YEAR OLD
QUADRIPLEGIC WHO SUFFERS FROM
CEREBRAL PALSY- MY MOTHER AND I
PROVIDE YEAR. ROUND AROUND THE
CLOCK BECAUSE FOR CARE FOR HIM-
WITHOUT. MY MOTHER AND I CARING
FOR HIM HE WOULD BE AN ANSWER
TO SENT THE LEVEL OF CARE HE IS
OUT. WHICH WOULD BE- GREATLY
DIMINISHED LEVEL OF CARE FOR
HIS CALL IN QUALITY OF LIFE
FIVE. FOR MORE WE CAN PROVIDE.
MANY INSTITUTIONS- THAT CARE
FOR- DISABLED FOLKS IN MY
BROTHER'S LEVEL OF KERR- IF
PROVIDE MUCH SHOT HIGHER
MEDICATION DOSAGE AS- IN.
SOMETIMES I NECESSARY
MEDICATIONS AND ABLE TO US
TODAY MAKE THE MARS DOMICILE-
WE'VE- SEEN MULTIPLE
INVESTIGATIONS BY. THE NEW YORK
TIMES THE WASHINGTON POST THAT
BACK THAT UP. THAT THAT OVER
MEDICATION. ESPECIALLY WITH
THREE WILL POLICY DEVELOPMENTAL
DISORDERS. HI I KNOW THAT
INSTRUCTION CARE IS NECESSARY
IN SOME SITUATIONS BUT MY
FAMILY WOULD NOT LIKE TO SEE
THAT- FOR MY BROTHER'S CASE-
BEING CARED FOR AT HOME ALLOWS
MY BROTHER TO LIVE IN COMFORT
AND DIGNITY HE HAS THE ABILITY
TO PARTICIPATE IN THE COMMUNITY
WE CAN TKE A MILE. TO A PUBLIC
EVENTS WE'VE I MEAN IF HE LOVES
TO GET OUT AND ABOUT. FIVE WE
BELIEVE THAT WE'RE PROVIDING
THE BEST LIFE POSSIBLE FOR MY
BROTHER. AND THAT'S WHY THESE
THINGS NOT EVERY FAMILY IS IN
THAT SAME SITUATION THAT WE ARE
THAT WE'RE ABLE TO PROVIDE THAT
CARE OURSELVES- BUT BECAUSE I
TRUST PAYS SOLO- FAMILY MEMBERS
ARE OFTEN THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT
ARE ABLE TO PROVIDE THAT CARE
IN BUTTE COUNTY WHERE I LIVE.
THERE WERE OVER FOUR HUNDRED
THOUSAND HOURS OF I. H. SASS.
BY THAT WERE AUTHORIZED BY THE
COUNTY BUT WERE NOT USED IN THE
PAST YEAR- NOT BECAUSE THEY
DIDN'T USE NEED THESE HOURS.
BUT BECAUSE THEY COULDN'T FIND.
PEOPLE TO WORK. I AT THAT. WAGE
I AM NOT EVERY. PERSON AS I
MENTIONED HAS SOMEONE
IMMEDIATELY THERE THAT CAN
PROVIDE THAT CARE FOR THEM. I
WHAT I'M ASKING IS THAT- WHAT
HAPPENED IF ANYONE ELSE'S YOU
HAVE FAMILY MEMBERS THAT MAY
NEED CARE AT SOME POINT WHAT
WOULD YOU WANT FOR YOUR FAMILY
MEMBERS- HOW MANY SENIORS AND
PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES. I
HAVE SUFFERED- ADVERSE HEALTH
CONSEQUENCES OR LIVED IN UNSAFE
AND UNSANITARY CONDITIONS
BECAUSE THERE WAS NO ONE TO
COVER THOSE HOURS- WE NEED TO
INCREASE PRESSURE ON COUNTIES
WERE DELINQUENT IN CLOSING THE
RIGHT SUCH CONTRACTS.
INCREASING PENALTIES FOR
INACTION. HI AND THEN THEY IS
AFTER YOU TAKE KERR- BUDGE
ACTIONS ARE REQUESTING TO
INCENTIVIZE COUNTIES TO ACT IN
THE BEST INTERESTS OF ITIS US
CLIENTS PROVIDERS BY INCREASING
WAGE THAT WE CAN KEEP PROVIDING
THIS MYSTERY WORK. SO WITH THAT
ALTERNATE I ACTUALLY HAVE A.
THANK YOU DOCTOR PAN- MY NAME
IS CHRISTINE ABBAS HAMILTON I'M
HERE REPRESENTING YOU W. THE
UNITED DOMESTIC WORKERS APPS
ME- WE REPRESENT A HUNDRED
SIXTEEN. THOUSAND I JUST AS
WORKERS IN TWENTY ONE COUNTIES.
AND I WISH THAT I COULD SAY
THAT. THE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
ISSUES THAT ARE BRAND NEW BUT
SADLY WHEN IT COMES TO THE-
SITUATION WITH WAGES WE'RE
WE'RE LIKE GROUNDHOG DAY AND
I'M JUST TIRED OF THIS
GROUNDHOG DAY AND I WISH IT
WOULD. IT WOULD START A NEW
DAY- SO. YES THERE HAS BEEN
PROGRESS SINCE JULY. ARE WE
WHERE WE NEED TO BE I WOULD SAY
THAT'S NO- WHAT WE HANDED OUT
ARE HANDING OUT RIGHT NOW IS
COPIES OF. ON THE STATUS OF OUR
CONTRACTS THROUGH ITS UPDATED
AS OF MARCH FIFTH. SO YOU CAN
SEE THAT COUNTIES IN YELLOW WE
HAVE ONE TWO THREE FOUR FIVE
THAT REMAIN OUTSTANDING- VIEW
COUNTY WHERE JUSTIN IS FROM
GOES SPECIFICALLY BACK TO TWO
THOUSAND FOURTEEN SO WE'RE
LOOKING AT GOING ON SIX YEARS
THERE- SOME OF THESE ARE JUST
REALLY. DIFFICULT SITUATIONS
THAT I DON'T SEE RESOLUTION
HAPPENING ANYTIME SOON THE
OTHER POINT THAT I WANT TO
RAISE IS EVEN IF WE HAVE
REACHED AGREEMENTS IN IN SOME
OF THESE OTHER PLACES. WE'RE
LOOKING AT AGREEMENTS THAT ARE
FOR FIFTY CENTS ABOVE THE
MINIMUM WAGE. AND THAT'S-
PURELY BECAUSE THAT IS THE
ABSOLUTE BEST THAT WAS GOING TO
HAPPEN. AND I WANT TO NOTE THAT
ONLY 10% OF THE WORKERS THAT WE
REPRESENT GET HEALTH BENEFITS
THROUGH THEIR CONTRACT MEANING
THAT THE VAST MAJORITY LIKELY
OR ON MEDI CAL. AND SO THESE
ARE THE WORKING POOR THESE ARE
THE POPULATIONS THAT WORK FULL
TIME AND ARE STILL ON PUBLIC
ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS SO IN LIGHT
OF THAT. AND IN LIGHT OF THE
FACT THAT THERE IS A CRISIS IN
TERMS OF WORK FORCE RECRUITING
AND RETAINING IN AYE HSS THAT I
BELIEVE ANY CLIENT COULD SPEAK
TO. IT BUT A SPECIFICALLY
CLIENTS WHO DON'T HAVE FAMILY
PROVIDERS WE WANT TO SEE THE
PENALTY AMOUNT INCREASE FOR
COUNTIES THAT ARE. NOT
NEGOTIATING IN GOOD FAITH SO AS
WE TALKED. HOLDING THAT WAS IT-
PASSED LAST YEAR WOULD LIKE TO
SEE THAT BECOME A 7%
WITHHOLDING AND HAVE IT BE
ANNUAL MEANING THAT SO LONG AS
IT REMAINS OUTSTANDING EVERY
YEAR THEY WOULD FACE ANOTHER
WITHHOLDING WE WOULD LIKE TO
SEE. TRANSPARENCY IN TERMS OF
TAXPAYER DOLLARS- FOR EXAMPLE
WE HAVE COUNTIES THAT HAVE BEEN
BARGAINING AS I MENTIONED IF
YOU COUNTY FOR GOING ON SIX
YEARS. THAT RETAIN A LAW FIRMS
THAT ARE NEGOTIATING ON THEIR
BEHALF- I CAN'T IMAGINE IN SIX
YEARS HOW MUCH OF THOSE
RETAINERS ADD UP TO. AND HOW
MUCH DOES THAT COME RELATIVE TO
WHAT WE'RE ACTUALLY LOOKING TO
GET FOR FOLKS. AND IT'S BEEN
DIFFICULT WE HAVE FILED
NUMEROUS PUBLIC INFORMATION
REQUESTS- WHAT WE GET IS PIECES
OF INFORMATION OR JUST BROAD-
LINE ITEM EXPENDITURES IT'S
HARD TO PARCEL EXACTLY HOW MUCH
IS BEING SPENT ON AYE HSS
NEGOTIATIONS SPECIFICALLY. WE
THINK THAT BECAUSE OF THE FACT
THAT THIS PHENOMENON. OF
RETAINING THESE OUTSIDE VENDORS
AND THAT WE HAVE. YOU KNOW
HONESTLY AN INCENTIVE FOR THEM
TO NEVER NEGOTIATE BECAUSE
THEY'LL JUST KEEP COLLECTING
THEIR RETAINERS AS LONG AS THIS
KEEPS GOING. WE NEED TO HAVE
TRANSPARENCY HOW MUCH IS BEING
SPENT. AND WHAT DOES THAT LOOK
LIKE IN RELATION TO WHAT THE
ACTUAL COST WOULD BE TO JUST
SETTLE THE CONTRACT. SO THERE'S
A PERVERSE INCENTIVE THERE-
WE'D LIKE TO SEE A AN ACTION
REVERSE THAT AS TAKEN LAST
YEAR WHICH IS THAT ONCE THE
MINIMUM WAGE IT'S FIFTEEN
DOLLARS. THE COST RATIOS SO THE
SHARE OF COSTS WILL FLIP. WE'RE
THE COUNTIES WILL NOW PICK UP
65% OF THE NON FEDERAL SHARE
AND THE STATE WOULD PICK UP
THIRTY FIVE. SO THAT'S THE
OPPOSITE OF WHAT EXISTS NOW.
THE ONLY THING I WOULD SAY ON
THAT IS IF WE THINK IT'S HARD
NOW. IT'LL BE A HUNDRED TIMES
HARDER WHEN THIS POLICY IS
ENACTED ANYTHING THAT WOULD
INCREASE COSTS ON THE COUNTY
AND WOULD ONLY MAKE IT MORE
DIFFICULT TO GET CONTRACTS. AND
THEN THAT'S ALSO HOLDING TRUE
ON THE XCELERATED CASE LOW
GROWTH ALLOCATIONS THAT'S JUST
A REALLY FANCY WORD FOR WE NEED
TO GET THE MONEY FASTER.
BECAUSE THAT'S ANOTHER MAJOR
PROBLEM THAT ALWAYS COMES UP IN
NEGOTIATION SO I'LL WRAP UP
WITH THAT THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
ANY COMMENTS FROM- THE PARCEL
SERVICES TO THESE PROPOSALS
OKAY. RIGHT HELLO THE ON
FINANCE ALL RIGHT. SO IN TERMS
OF THE- SO WE HAD TO THE
COUNTIES ARGUING WILL WE GET AN
AGREEMENT LAST YEAR RIGHT AND
THERE ARE PROVISIONS PUT IN TO
TRY TO MOVE PEOPLE TO
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING RIGHTS
BECAUSE RECOGNIZE THAT WAS A
PROBLEM LAST YEAR. BASED ON.
WHAT YOU'RE PRESENTING NOW CAN
YOU MAYBE SPEECH TO THE EITHER
AFFECTED THIS OR AND
EFFECTIVENESS OF THE PROVISIONS
WE DID SO THEIR ARGUMENT IS
THAT WELL LOOK ON THE MIDDLE OF
THIS RIGHT AND WE ACTUALLY HAVE
MORE CONTRACTS WE READ BEFORE
BUT YOU KNOW AS YOU POINTED OUT
THERE STILL LIVES SOMEWHERE IN
TAX RATE. SO HOW CAN YOU CAN
YOU. TALK ABOUT WELL. SO WHY
SHOULDN'T WE GIVE THIS A CHANCE
RIGHT. GIVE A LITTLE LONGER-
IT'S HOW DO YOU SEE THAT THE
CURRENT NECK AND WHAT WE GREW
TO LAST YEAR IS SOMETHING
THAT'S- HEADED TOWARD FAILURE
ARE AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE SAYING
OR IS THAT SOME. SOMETHING LIKE
DO YOU TO SPEAK TO WHO- WHY THE
TOOLS ARE INSUFFICIENT. TO TRY
TO GET CONTRACTS AND REMAINING
COUNTIES- THAT WE WERE THAT WE
TRIED PUTTING IN PLACE LAST
YEAR. I WOULD ARGUE THAT
THERE'S A LOT MORE IN ADDITION
TO THE WITHHOLDING THAT'S GOING
ON THAT'S RESULTING IN
CONTRACTS GETTING- FINALIZED I
MEAN WE'VE HAD PUBLIC ACTIONS I
MEAN THERE'S BEEN ARRESTS
THERE'S BEEN CIVIL
DISOBEDIENCE. A PRESS YOU KNOW
CONTACTING LEGISLATORS TO
INTERVENE AND THE I MEAN. I
DON'T KNOW THAT THAT IN AND OF
ITSELF YES I WOULD SEE IT ADDED
TO IT BUT IN LIGHT OF THE FACT
THAT WE'VE HAD NEGOTIATORS SAY
WELL WE'LL TAKE THE 1% OR YOU
COULD TAKE THAT IN THE FORM OF
A TEN CENT INCREASE WE'RE GOOD
EITHER WAY. THAT TELLS ME THAT
THAT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING TO
ANYBODY RIGHT. HOW MUCH DID IT
HELP IT IT IS HELPFUL I'M SURE
THAT IT IS I DON'T THINK. THAT
WHAT WE HAVE IT SHOULD BE
MODELED IN ANY WAY WHICH IS
THAT WE GET AGREEMENTS AFTER
SHEDDING BLOOD SWEAT AND TEARS
AND- YOU KNOW LITERALLY GOING
ALL OUT IT SHOULDN'T BE THAT
WAY SO WHAT I WANT TO SAY IS.
YEAH THAT WE MIGHT HAVE GOTTEN
THERE IT'S LIKE SAYING YOU KNOW
WE LASTED TO THE VERY LAST
SECOND AND EIGHTY WE MADE IT.
IT SHOULDN'T BE THAT WAY
SHOULDN'T BE DRAGGING KICKING
AND SCREAMING IT SHOULD BE
LET'S DO THIS BECAUSE IT'S THE
RIGHT THING TO DO. OKAY I
APPRECIATE THAT. AT THE END I
KNOW YOU TO BE SPENT MOST OF
TIME TALKING ABOUT THESE ARE
TOUCHED ON XCELERATED CASE
GROWTH ALLOCATION SO YOU'RE
SAYING THAT THAT'S- TO- TRY TO
GET FASTER PAYMENT CORRECT YES
BECAUSE THAT IS A NUMBER ONE
COMPLAINT THAT WE RECEIVED FROM
COUNTY NEGOTIATORS IS THAT EVEN
IF THEY WANT. TO INCREASE THE
WAGE THEY CAN'T WAIT FOR THE
CASH FROM NINETEEN NINETY ONE
REALIGNMENT TO REACH THEM TO
COMPENSATE THEM FOR THAT
BECAUSE THERE'S AN AVERAGE LACK
OF TIME OF EIGHTEEN MONTHS SO
THEY DON'T WANT TO FRONT THOSE
COSTS. EXCEED FINE IT'S THE OF
A COMMENT ON THAT I WOULD JUST
LIKE. TO TEARS- THAT YOU KNOW
THAT THE PROCESS FOR XCELERATED
CASELOAD GROWTH WAS IN PLACE
ONLY FOR TWO YEARS- SEVENTEEN
EIGHTEEN EIGHTEEN NINETEEN.
WHEN THERE'S- COORDINATED CARE
INITIATIVE WAS ENDED AND WE
WENT BACK TO THE OLD- SHARING
RATIOS AND WE NEGOTIATE THE NEW
AND WE- SO. I WILL WHAT I'M
SAYING I GUESS IS THAT. THE
ISSUE. THEY RECEIVE THE FILES
EIGHTEEN MONTHS LATER THAT HAS
ALWAYS BEEN THE CASE PRIOR TO
SEVENTEEN EIGHTEEN. IT WILL BE
USED CASE I'LL BE PAYING IN.
TWELVE OKAY SIR. BASICALLY
GOING TO WHAT WAS BEFORE HER
EIGHT. SO ESSENTIALLY THERE
HISTORICALLY IT HAS BEEN-
VINEGAR ARE COUNTIES HAVE BEEN
REQUIRED TO BARGAIN AND
HISTORICALLY ODD WHEN THEY DO
BARGAIN THEY KNOW THAT THAT
FUNDING IS COMING LATER- WE
DON'T SEE THAT AS YOU KNOW A
BIG REASON OR A BIG DRIVER OF
WHY THE- YOU KNOW WHAT'S- WHAT
THE BARRIERS ARE TERRA. TERRA
NEGOTIATING BARGAINING OKAY.
BUT I WOULD POINT OUT DOCTOR
PAN AND I WANT TO SAY FINANCE
HAS BEEN VERY HELPFUL IN
GETTING US. WITH SPECIFIC
COUNTIES THAT HAVE THESE TYPE
OF QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW FAST
THEY'LL GET THEIR MONEY I WANT
TO POINT OUT SO WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT THE FISCAL PENALTY BUT WE
ARE WE HAVE PROPOSED IN THE
PAST THINGS LIKE EXHILARATING
CASELOAD GROWTH- GETTING
ADDITIONAL DOLLARS YOU KNOW
OFFSETTING COST LIKE. THE
CARROTS HAVE BEEN THERE FOR
MANY MOONS AND IT TOOK A LONG
TIME TO GET TO THE STICKS SO
IT'S NOT AS THOUGH LIKE WE'RE
JUST GOING FOR THE WORST CASE

IN A MAYBE A BROADER COMMENT
AND I A NOW WE'VE BEEN TALKING
WITH ACTUALLY TO SPEND SOME
TIME HERE TODAY TALKING ABOUT
OUT YOUR PROJECTIONS AND HOW WE
GET ACCURATE ONES. AND SO YOU
KNOW I GUESS THE THING I'M THAT
THE MASSES SOME FRUSTRATION
WITH- SO YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'S
ACTUALLY SITTING HERE BUT YOU
CAN SEND THAT TO YOUR BOSS IS
THAT. SO I MEAN I SO I HEAR
WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT OUT YOUR
PROJECT BUT THEN WHAT I'M SAID
THAN WHAT YOU'RE SORT OF SAYING
IS OUR FINANCES SAYING I DON'T
SEE E. L. YOU PERSONALLY. IS
THAT WHILE WE ARE PROJECTING
THAT. IN TWENTY TWENTY THREE
THAT WE'RE GONNA HAVE LARGE
CUTS TO HSS TO A WHOLE BUNCH OF
OTHER BY THE WAY I NOTICE THEY
ALL HAPPEN TO BE SOCIAL SERVICE
PROGRAMS. RIGHT I MEAN THEY'RE
NOT ACROSS THE BOARD WE'RE NOT
DOING THIS ACROSS THE BOARD IN
THE BUDGET. THERE ARE SOCIAL
SERVICE PROGRAMS AND I HAPPEN
TO CHAIR THE SUBCOMMITTEE SO I
NOTICED THAT YOU KNOW I GO
CHECK WHERE ELSE IN THE BUDGET
DO WE HAVE THIS AUTOMATIC
CLIFFS. IT'S ONLY IN SOCIAL
SERVICES AND I'M GOING WHAT IS
THAT WHY IS THAT. IS THAT FAIR.
I MEAN FOR REALLY THAT ANXIOUS
ABOUT IT WHY IS IT THAT. YOU
KNOW AND AGAIN WE DON'T KNOW
WE'RE IN THE LONGEST EXPANSION
SOME POINT WEBER SESSION SO
FORTH. AND SO WHAT IS THAT
SUPPOSED TO MEAN IS THERE A
COMMITMENT THEN FOR SOCIAL
SERVICES THAT YOU KNOW WHAT
WE'RE REBUILDING YOUR CUT SO
YOU GET. YOU KNOW IT AT WILL
CUT FROM EVERYWHERE ELSE EXCEPT
YOU BUT I DON'T HEAR THAT
EITHER OR SOMEBODY. WHAT I HEAR
IS A WHAT IT TAKES SOCIAL
SERVICE YOU GET AUTOMATIC CUT
AND THEN WE START TALKING ABOUT
HOW HE CUT EVERYBODY. WHICH
MEANS OF SERVICES TAKES IT ON
THE CHIN AGAIN. AND THAT THAT
I'M- YOU KNOW. RELEASE
STRUGGLING WITH BECAUSE I IT
DOESN'T REFLECT MY VALUES I AM
SURE DOESN'T REFLECT THE
GOVERNOR'S OUTSIDE CERTAINLY
HELP. AND SO WE BUILT IT IN AND
YOU KNOW IT AND THEN DID YOU
SAID YOU WERE DOING OUT YEARS
RIGHT WE BUDGET PER YEAR BUT WE
DO OUT YEARS BECAUSE WE TRY TO
BE RESPONSIBLE. BUT I ALSO AM
THINKING LIKE WELL. IS THAT
BEING RESPONSIBLE TO BUILD IN
AN AUTOMATIC CUT T IT'S EITHER
THAT OR WE HAVE TO OWN IT'S
LIKE WELL WE ARE PLANNING TO WE
DON'T REALLY WANT TO BUT WE ARE
PLAIN TO. IN THE ABSENCE OF.
YEAH SO I AND THAT'S THE FIRST
THAT SIMPLY THE FIRST TO FALL
BECAUSE THE ONLY THIS IS THE
HOW THESE ARE THE ONLY PROGRAMS
THAT HAVE THIS. CUT BILL TEN
RIGHT NO ONE ELSE HAS A BUILT
IN THAT WAY. WE DON'T DO IT A
LOT OF OTHER PLACES BUT WE'RE
GONNA BUILD IT IN. AND OUT YOUR
PROJECTS FOR SOCIAL SERVICES.
SO THAT YOU KNOW SO BASICALLY
THAT TRIGGER WE DON'T HAVE TO
PULL THE TRIGGER IT JUST
AUTOMATICALLY HAPPENS. SO I
DON'T I AM. HI I HOPE WE CAN
HAVE A DISCUSSION ABOUT THAT
THAT'S PROBABLY A LITTLE LARGER
DISCUSSION WITH LIKE THE FULL
NOW WITH BUDGET IN THE GOVERNOR
AND AT THE LEADERSHIP LEVEL BUT
I REALLY HAVE A TREMENDOUS
DISCOMFORT WITH THE IDEA THAT
WE YOU KNOW WE TALKED ABOUT
THIS AND WE CAN SAID WELL
DOESN'T REALLY HAPPEN UNTIL
NEXT YEAR OR SO LITTLE AT ALL
IT'S NOT GONNA REALLY HAPPEN
IT'S GOT MORE ON PAPER AND YES
WE CAN PUSH IT OUT PAPER BUT-
AT SOME POINT WHAT WE ARE
SAYING THAT IS THAT WE SET UP
ALL THESE PROGRAMS INCLUDING
ITEM. S. WHICH WOULD TALK ABOUT
HOW BUT ALSO OTHERS FOR AN
AUTOMATIC FALL. QUOTE IF WE
NEED IT. RIGHT AND SO WE DO OUR
FIVE YEAR PROJECTION WE BUILD
IN AND WE SAY GUESS WHAT. SO
THAT IS SO WE'RE NOT BUT WE
DON'T DO THAT UNIVERSALLY
ACROSS THE BOARD WHICH HAS TO
IT FOR CERTAIN PROGRAMS AND
THEY ALL SEEM TO BE. SOCIAL
SERVICE PROGRAMS SO. YOU KNOW.
THAT I COULD SELL- THIS IS OUR
FIRST HEARING FOR THIS BUDGET
SUBCOMMITTEE SO. I TAKE A
LITTLE MORE TIME TO I MADE
REFER TO THIS. SAID THE
COMMENTS LATER AGAIN AND AGAIN
BUT INSTEAD OF GOING DURING THE
LONG CUT VERSION EACH TIME. I
MEAN I THINK THAT IS SOMETHING
WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT. NOW IS
THIS THE IN OUR BUDGETING
APPROACH BECAUSE- EITHER WE
REALLY THINK THERE'S GONNA BE A
CLINTON. YOU KNOW I'M I'VE BEEN
SUPPORTING EL RAINY DAY FUNDS
AND OTHER TYPES OF THINGS TO
MITIGATE. BUT WERE. BUT WE'RE
ALSONOT TREATING EVERYONE THE
SAME ARE SIMILARLY RIGHT
SELLERS WHAT WE'VE SAID IS THAT
CERTAIN PROGRAMS. WE'RE GONNA
BUILD IN AN AUTOMATIC CUT AND
OTHERONES WERE NOT AND WAS
THAT SUPPOSED TO SAY WHAT'S
THAT TELLING EVERYBODY. RIGHT
AND I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING WE
NEED TO REALLY THINK ABOUT AND
HAVE A BROADER CONVERSATION
ABOUT- SO. CERTAINLY YOU KNOW I
THINK IN THE PAST AS CERTAINLY
AGREED WITH TRYING TO DO THE
PERMIT RESTORATION AND IF WE
ARE GOING TO MAKE THE CUT AGAIN
BECAUSE OF WHATEVER BUDGETARY
THINGS WE SHOULD DO IT
CONSCIOUSLY. AND NOT
AUTOMATICALLY THAT'S MY VIEW
ABOUT IT SO- I KNOW WE HAVEN'T
QUITE GOTTEN THERE AND ANY
PREVIOUS BUDGET AND FINAL
GRIEVANCES SO FORTH BUT I DON'T
WANT TO DO THINGS AUTOMATICALLY
I WANT TO DO THINGS CONSCIOUSLY
WE ARE BUDGETS REFLECTIVE
PRIORITIS AND WE SHOULD. JUST
LIVING I AM YEAH YES WE HAVE TO
MAKE THAT. ABOUT TWENTY BILLION
DEFICIT ME MAKE. CUTS I DIDN'T
WANT TO MAKE. BUT WE DID THOSE
CONSCIOUSLY. RIGHT AND SO FOUR
DEMOCRATS IN THE FUTURE WE'RE
IN GOOD TIMES NOW WE SHOULD
MAKE THEM CONSCIOUSLY AND NOT
JUST AUTOMATICALLY AND BUILT IN.
AT A TIME AND LET'S SETTLE IN
REALLY INTEND TO DO. AND THEN
WE HAVE ALL DIFFERENT TACK
CONVERSATION BECAUSE IT HAD A-
CUT BUT WE DON'T CáC GREAT
BECAUSE WELL DON'T WORRY ABOUT
IT'S NOT REALLY HAPPENING IS
OUT THERE. BUT WHAT'S BUT YOU
KNOW WHAT'S OUT THERE SUPPOSED
TO MEAN SO. I'M FORTY I KNOWYOU'RE THE ONLY MEMBER FINANCES
pMAYBE SOMEONE IN THE AUDIENCE
BUT I MEAN I THINK THAT'S A
DAY- AND- EAT OKAY WELL IF YOU
WISH TO RESPOND- I I'M NOT
GONNA HOLD YOU PERSONALLY
ACCOUNTABLE BUT I THINK YEAH. I
CAN I CAN YOU KNOW I CAN ASSURE
THAT THE THAT THE GOVERNOR
DOESN'T WANT TO SEE THESE
PROGRAMS GET REDUCED- I THINK
WHAT. WHAT WE'RE KIND OF EIGHT
AND IN IN TERMS OF YOU KNOW WHY
THEY'RE THERE PATTERN ARE YOU
KNOW HE'S FUTURE CUTS ARE
REFLECTED IN THESE AREAS. I
MEAN THERE THERE IT REALLY
DOES- COME DOWN TO LIKE WHERE
WHERE CAN WE- IF WE HAVE TO
MAKE REDUCTIONS WHERE CAN WE
MAKE REDUCTIONS NOW I THINK
DEFINITELY WORKING WITH
LEGISLATURE. TO IF THERE ARE
OTHER AREAS OF THE BUDGET- THAT
YOU KNOW THERE CAN BE AGREEMENT
ON TO MAKE REDUCTIONS AND I
THINK WE'RE HAPPY TO OBVIOUSLY
HAVE THOSE CONVERSATIONS AND I
THINK THOSE CONVERSATIONS WILL
BE HAPPY- IN THE NEAR FUTURE-
BUT I JUST WANTED TO REITERATE
THAT YOU KNOW. THE GOVERNOR
DOES CARE ABOUT THESE PROGRAMS
THESE ARE NOT- HE DOES NOT TAKE
YOU KNOW LOOK AT THESE AS AS
YOU'RE TAKING THESE REDUCTIONS
LIGHT A- UP I'M- BUT WHAT DO
YOU. TO GET A WE HAVE
STRUCTURAL WE HAVE A
RESPONSIBILITY TO HAVE A
STRUCTURAL YOU KNOW WE MAY NOT.
A BUDGET THAT IS. YOU KNOW. UP
STRUCTURE IN A SOUND MANNER AND-
AGAIN. I THINK. YOU KNOW WITH
THE ECONOMY CAN AS THE WEIGHT
HOUSE. THAT WE WERE ABLE PUSH
THESE REDUCTIONS OUT IT WOULD
BE WONDERFUL WE COULD PUSH THEM
OUT OF THE WAY THE MULTI YEAR
WINDOW COMPLETELY- BUT WE'LL
HAVE TO SEE HOW THINGS LOOK AT
THE MAYOR VERSION AND THEN I'M
SURE WE'LL BE HAVING MORE
CONVERSATIONS. OKAY WELL I
APPRECIATE A RESPONSE. A HOPE
ALSO MY PREVIOUS QUESTIONS THAT
WERE ABOUT HOW ACTIVE WERE
PROJECTING SHOWS ALSO MY OWN
PERSONAL COMMITMENT TO BE SURE
WE DO ACCURATE LONG TERM
BUDGETING SO I AND YOU KNOW
WE'RE I THINK WE'RE IN THAT
TOGETHER AND TERMS OF SAYING.
YOU KNOW AND I KNOW I'M SURE
LA- WORKS WITH US ON THAT AS
WELL SO WE WANT HAVE. ACCURATE
IS ACTORS POSSIBLE REALIZING
THERE'S ALWAYS YOU KNOW THINGS
THAT WE- BOTH WE DON'T CONTROL
WE DON'T KNOW BUT- LOOKING OUT
TO THE FUTURE. BUT IN THINKING
ABOUT AS WE'RE DOING THE OUT
YEARS. HOW WERE YOU PLANNING
FOR THIS IN A WAY THAT REFLECTS
OUR VALUES. RIGHT SO THAT'S WHY
I SAID YOU KNOW IF WE'RE IF I
WEEKS BACK TO MAINTAIN A
CERTAIN LEVEL OF EFFORT FOR.
LONG TERM SERVICES SUPPORTS AND
WE KNOW OUR DEMOGRAPHICS ARE
GONNA BE CHANGING OVER YOU
KNOW. SO AND THERE'S GOING TO
BE A CERTAIN CASELOAD GROWTH I
MEAN IT'S AN ESTIMATE BUT YOU
KNOW YOU KNOW THAT YOU HAVE.
CERTAIN TRY YOU KNOW CERTAIN
AGE RANGES YOU HAVE A CERTAIN
PERCENTAGE PEOPLE NEED THESE
SERVICES ETCETERA RIGHT I MEAN
IT WE CAN MODEL THAT ARE EXPECT
THAT IN THE SAME WAY WE CAN
MODEL OUR ECONOMY. SOMETHING'S
WRONG BUT WE GET PRETTY CLOSE
AND- SO WE SHOULD. I TO. WAS
ACTUALLY AS POSSIBLE. WHAT
WHERE WE'RE GOING TO GO AND
THEN MAKE THE KIND OF DECISIONS
WE NEED TO MAKE TO BE SURE THAT
YOU KNOW WE DON'T CORPORATE
THAT WE'RE ALMOST SAYING THAT
AND THAT'S FOR THE REASON WE
HAD INFORMATIONAL HEARING
ABOUT. LTE SS COUPLE OF THIS
ONE YET THE CUT PREVIOUS
CONVERSATION THEN I WAS LIKE
WELL WE WEREN'T REALLY LOOKING
TEACHER WELL THEN WE'LL GET OUT
PROJECTIONS IF WE'RE NOT
BUILDING IN THE GROWTH IN THE
POPULAR YOU KNOW THE CHANGE IN
THE POCKET. OR SET UNDER BUDGET
FOR THE AT THE WHAT WE'RE
TELLING PEOPLE THAT ACTUALLY
INTENTION IS TO CUT THOSE ARE
ISN'T FUTURE THIS WEEK KISSED
YOU KNOW THERE'S A CERTAIN
LEVEL NOW WE CAN AND I'M
LOOKING FOR MASTER PLAN JANGAN
WORK WILL RESTRAIN THE SIR IN A
WAY THAT MORE EFFICIENT AT
EIGHT OHMS SO WHAT WE REALLY.
THAT MUCH MONEY THERE KNOW FOR
SURE MAYBE WE'LL REDO THE WAY
WE DO THINGS BUT HELLO UNTIL E
CHANGE THE WAY WE DO THINGS WE
CAN'T GO AHEAD WELL BY THE WAY
BUDGET HAPPENED. RIGHT THANKS.
WE WORK WITH YOU THEN AS- AND I
THE GOV. THERE'S ABOUT THE
SERVICES THAT CERTAINLY NOT
IMPLYING HE DOES NOT- ANYWAY.
BUT I AM ALSO BIT FRUSTRATED
THAT WE HAVE BUILT IN. TO OUR
LONG TERM PROJECTIONS.
ESSENTIALLY AUTOMATIC CUTS THAT
YOU KNOW WE MAY NEED TO MAKE IN
A BAD YEAR OR RECESSION WE DID
PUT IN RAINY DAY FUNDS BY THE
WAY TRY TO SET UP BUT I AM
THINKING YELLED THAT- AT HAVING
BEEN AROUND IN THE BED TIME
IT'S EASY TO ALLOW THINGS TO
HAPPEN AUTOMATICALLY I PREFER
WE DO THIS CONSCIOUSLY INSTEAD
OF LETTING SETTING THINGS UP SO
THAT. CERTAINLY CERTAIN THE
PROGRAMS ON TO TAKE THE HIT AND
THEN WE HAVE THE CONVERSATION
ABOUT WHAT'S NEXT ONCE THEY GET
IT SO JUST MY PERSPECTIVE. AND
I THINK THAT'S THE END OF THE-
I WANT I WANT TO. POINT

SS- CAN INTRODUCE YOURSELVES
AND THANK YOU WELCOME. I AM MY
NAME IS JUDY JACKSON I'M HERE
WITH THE ALAMEDA COUNTY FOOD
BANK. I WANT TO ANSWER YOUR
EARLIER QUESTION ABOUT
PROJECTIONS. IN MY CASE I TOOK
OVER CARE FOR MISS CAROL
BECAUSE SHE HAD NO FAMILY. AND
I'M TOOK THE TRAINING FOR AL
TIMERS AND WAS TOLD THAT HER
CONDITION WILL CONTINUE GET
WORSE SO SHE WILL NEED MORE AND
MORE CARE. RIGHT NOW I'M TOLD
SHE GETS NO MORE I HSS HOURS
UNLESS SHE HURTS HERSELF FOR
SOMEONE. AND I DON'T THINK THAT
HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH WHAT
SHE NEEDS TO BE ABLE TO STAY IN
HER HOME. FIVE SUPPORT ANY
INCREASE IN OUR DATE PROVIDERS
SALARIES BECAUSE WE'D BEEN TWO
MONTHS TRYING TO FIND AN EXTRA
PROVIDER TO TAKE CARE OF HER
WHEN HER REGULAR PROVIDER CAN'T
DO IT. THANK YOU. I CAN. OKAY
WELCOME DOESN'T GET CALIFORNIA
STATE ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES-
IN OPPOSITION TO THE TO
STAKEHOLDER PROPOSALS RELATED
TO INCREASE FOR SIX NINE
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING ON THE
FIRST ONE WITH INCREASING THE
PENALTY YOU KNOW WE REALLY VIEW
THIS AS A KIND OF MAKING A
REFERENDUM ON THE NEW PROCESS
THAT WE JUST ESTABLISHED LAST
YEAR WITHOUT EVEN LIKE IN THAT
PROCESS BE TESTED WE'RE ONLY AT
STEP ONE OF FOUR OF TESTED 25%
OF THE PROCESS NEEDS COUNTIES
CERTAINLY WE SHARE THE BILL OF.
IT'S REACHED PAYMENT WE KNOW IT.
IT INTO. COUNTIES CONSENT GOING
TO MORE TO. IN SOME OF THEM.
BUT LET'S TEST THE NEW PROCESS
THAT WE ALL CAME TOGETHER AND
ESTABLISH. A BEFORE MAKING A
JUDGMENT CALL ON WHETHER IT
WORKS OR NOT AND WHETHER THE
PENALTY NEEDS TO BE INCREASED.
ON THE ISSUE OF- KIND OF
CONTRACT CONSULTANTS FOR
BARGAINING. YOU KNOW IN MANY
CASES COUNTIES HAVE A- A
STANDING UP PARTNERSHIP- ACROSS
ALL KIND OF COUNTY CONTACT NOT
JUST RELATED AYE ACCESS. AND SO
THESE ARE KIND OF AGAIN
INDIVIDUAL COUNTY DECISIONS
WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE NUMBERS
OF- COUNTY IS THAT. PARTNER
WITH A CONTRACT CONSULTANTS-
FOR I'D SAYS FIRST COUNTIES A
DON'T YOU KNOW THE AT THE
AMOUNT OF AGREEMENT IS PRETTY
MUCH AT THE SAME RATE AND SO
AGAIN WE THINK THIS.
RESTRICTION TO BE UNLIKE ANY
OTHER RESTRICTION ON COLLECTIVE
BARGAINING- EMITTED NOR IS A
PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE ON
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AND
AGREEMENTS AND HE'S COUNTIES.
DO YOU DISEASE. AND SO WOULD
OPPOSE. WELL THANK YOU. THANK
YOU WELCOME THANK YOU MISTER
CHAIR FRANK MCCOURT THE COUNTY
WELFARE DIRECTORS ASSOCIATION
ALSO IN OPPOSITION TO THE U. D.
W. BARGAINING PROPOSALS A
LITTLE BIT OF HISTORICAL
PERSPECTIVE PRIOR TO
BARGAINING- THE LEGISLATURE HAD
OPTIONS- TO IMPOSE BARGAINING
ON COUNTIES OR TO DO THE
BARGAINING YOURSELVES. THE
UNIONS RECOMMENDED LOCAL
BARGAINING WE RECOMMENDED STATE
BARGAINING AND WE LOST. MANY OF
THE REASONS THAT WE ARGUED FOR
BY STATE BARGAINING WOULD BE
SUPERIOR ARE MANIFEST IN THE
DEBATE WE'RE HAVING OVER WHAT
THE BARGAINING RULES ARE. IF AT
SOME POINT THE STATE'S FOR-
ROLE IN LOCAL BARGAINING IS TO
IS TO DICTATE THE TERMS NOT THE
OUTCOME. IF WE WANT TO GET TO
THE POINT WHERE WE BELIEVE AS A
MATTER OF PUBLIC POLICY. THAT
THERE'S A PREDETERMINED OUTCOME
AND THAT IS A GREATER FLOOR OF
WAGES FOR EVERYONE WHO DELIVERS
AYE HSS WAGES. LOCAL BARGAINING
ISN'T THE ONLY WAY FOR YOU TO
ACCOMPLISH THAT YOU CAN
ESTABLISH THAT IN LAW. YOU CAN
ALSO HAVE BARGAINING DONE AT
THE STATE LEVEL RATHER THAN THE
LOCAL LEVEL THOSE TWO
APPROACHES. IN OUR OPINION DO
REQUIRE THE STATE PAY MORE THAN
THEY OTHERWISE WOULD. BUT I
JUSTWANTED TO BE CLEAR ABOUT
THE FACT THAT LOCAL BARGAINING
ISN'T THE ONLY WAY TO CONCEIVE
BARGAINING IT WASN'T OUR IDEA.
I'M AND YOU HAVE OTHER OPTIONS
RATHER THAN TO INAPPROPRIATELY
IN OUR IN OUR OPINION AS THIS
PROPOSAL WOULD TO. DICTATE NOT
JUST THE TERMS OF THE
BARGAINING BUT TO TAKE THE
OUTCOMES WHICH IS AN
APPROPRIATE. THANK YOU WELCOME

PORT DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE OKAY
THANK YOU ALL RIGHT. LET'S GO
HADN'T BEEN OKAY- YOU ALSO HAVE
A POWER POINT HIM DOWN ON THE
SS I SS P. PROGRAM- TO PROVIDE
YOU SOME OF THE INFORMATION OF
AN OVERVIEW- I'M LOOKING AT THE
SECOND PAGE HERE CASELOAD
YOU'LL SEE THAT THERE IS AN
ONGOING SLIGHT DECLINE IN THE
CASE LOAD OF THIS PROGRAM WHICH
HAS BEEN GOING ON THE LAST.
SEVERAL YEARS THE FOLLOWING
PAGES ADDRESS A FEW OF THE
POTENTIAL REASONS FOR THAT
INCLUDING THE FINANCIAL
STABILITY OF BABY BOOMERS. ON
THE ADVANCES IN MEDICAL
TECHNOLOGY HEALTHIER BEHAVIORS-
ASSET LIMITS SO THAT IT KIND OF
OUTLINES THOSE ARE. REASONS
THAT HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED THAT
RELATE TO THAT DECLINE- THAN
THE FOLLOWING PAGE GOES INTO
THE BUDGET FOR NINETEEN TWENTY
THE ESTIMATED BUDGET WAS NINE
POINT SEVEN BILLION IT'S ABOUT
THE SAME FOR FISCAL YEAR TWENTY
TWENTY ONE. THE ADMINISTRATIVE
PORTION OF THAT IS ABOUT AN
EIGHT HUNDRED EIGHTY THREE-
FOUND MILLION. FOR THE S. P.
ADMINISTRATION THAT THE STATE
AT THAT THE STATE- CONTRACTS
WITH SSA TO PROVIDE. ON WE DO
HAVE MOVED INTO THE MAINTENANCE
OF EFFORT AND THE PAYMENT
STANDARDS THAT ARE OUTLINED
THERE FOR YOU AND THEN ALSO.
GIVE THE COMPARISON AS WE MOVE
FORWARD A COUPLE OF PAGES TO
THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES.
AND THEN- THAT LASTS SEVERAL
PAGES PROVIDED THE COLA HISTORY.
FOR YOU THERE HAPPY TO RESPOND
TO ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS THAT
YOU'RE- WOULD LIKE MORE
INFORMATION ON. OKAY THANK YOU
A COMMENCEMENT ELIO. REVIEWED
THE ESTIMATES A REASON A MAJOR
CONCERNS- BUT SIMILAR TO I IT
JUST SAYS- SPECIFICALLY ON CASE
THAT WE DID JUST NOTE THAT
LOOKING AT THE MOST RECENT
MONTHLY ACTUAL- CASELOAD
ESTIMATES MAY COME IN HIRING ME
BUT STILL WE WOULD SEE THAT
DECLINE OVERALL BUT THAT'S
SOMETHING THAT- WILL BE
MONITORING AND LOOK FOR IT PER
THAT MAYBE UPDATE. THANK YOU
FINANCE. AB SIMILAR YOU KNOW TO
THE DISCUSSION ON I JUST AS
COSTS FROM WILL BE UPDATING-
OUR PROJECTIONS- TO IN THE MAY
REVISION. OKAY THANK YOU. SO IN
TERMS OF THE- SO I GUESS WHEN
THE ISSUES THAT AS NINE OF WILL
BE HEARING A LOT OF THINGS
ABOUT HOUSING BUT- THERE IS
ACTUALLY HEARING THAT WAS
CHAIRED BY SARAH TAUGHT IT WAS
CHAIR OF HUMAN SERVICES- ON-
CARE BOARDING AND- SO IN THAT
HEARING. IT WAS. MENTIONED THAT
IT'S PRESENTED THAT WHILE THE
OVERALL NUMBER OF. GUEST BEDS
AND KAREN BOARDING HAS BEEN THE
SAME. THE THAT ACTUALLY BUT
THERE'S BEEN A DECLINE IN KAREN
BOARDING BEDS FOR PEOPLE WHO
ARE ON SSI BECAUSE BASICALLY
THE LIMITS WERE TOO LOW AND
DOES NOT REALLY FINANCIALLY
SUSTAINABLE- HAS THAT IS THAT
SOMETHING AND TURN OVER WHO
PRESENTED ON THAT AT THAT
HEARING BUT- CAN YOU CAN YOU
SPEAK TO THAT I MEAN WE'RE SO
AS WE'RE LOOKING AT THIS AND-
REALLY A CASE LOADS AND- AND WE
WILL BE HEARING A- QUEST FOR
REGARDING- HELP PAY LATER BUT
TO USE CAN YOU SPEAK TO THE
HOUSING ISSUES RELATED FOR.
PEOPLE OR ON SS I SS P. SURE SO
THE WARDEN CARE OR THE ADULT
RESIDENTIAL FACILITIES
RESIDENTIAL CARE FACILITIES FOR
THE ELDERLY ARE PART OF THE
CONTINUUM THAT PROVIDES A
SUPPORT TO ACCESS THAT
SOCIETIES P. POPULATION OUT WE
ARE AGAIN AS YOU NOTED OVER
ARCHING WE WERE SEEING A-
ACTUALLY INCREASING CAPACITY OF
THOSE FACILITY TIES BUT FOR
THOSE THAT ARE CARING
SPECIFICALLY FOR SSI ASSIST
PEOPLE POPULATION THERE'S A
GREATER DECLINE- AND SO I'M
HAPPY TO PROVIDE SPECIFICS
NUMBERS IF YOU'RE IF YOU'D LIKE
TO THERE ARE SOME AND I THINK
YOUR AGENDA SPEAKS TO IT A
LITTLE BIT LATER AROUND SOME OF
THAT- THE- WAYS IN WHICH WE
HAVE. ESSENTIALLY A PROXY TO
LOOK AT THE DATA MATCHING
BETWEEN WHO'S WHO'S IN A
RESIDENT IN THOSE FACILITY
TYPES IN WHOSE RECEIVING A
SOCIETY PROXY THAT WERE USING-
BUT I CAN CERTAINLY I'M SURE
WITH THE SPECIFIC DATA AT THE
STATE LEVEL FOR A FEW PEOPLE
LIKE THAT OUR OR LATER ON IN
THE AGENDA BUT CERTAINLY WE ARE
SEEING A DECLINE SPECIFIC TO-
WHEEZING THAT PROXY MEASURE OF
THE NUMBER OF THOSE FACILITY
TYPES AND CASSIE THIS FACILITY
TYPES THAT ARE SERVING THE SS I
SS BE POPULATION. OKAY WELL I
MEAN I THINK YOU KNOW WHAT WAS
WERE TRANSCRIPTS HOMELESSNESS
AND HOUSING- I THINK WE NEED TO
LOOK AT HOW YOU KNOW HOW THE
POPULATION IS ON SSI SSD IS
BEING IMPACTED IN ORDER TO
THINKS THAT WE NEED TO DO. TO
THE GATE DOBBS YEAH WE ARE
OTHER A LOT THE WELL. PROGRAMS
PROPOSALS AROUND HOUSING ALSO
JUST STRUCK THAT. YOU KNOW
WE'RE LOSING CARE CARE BOARDING
HOMES FOR PEOPLE ON SSI ASSIST
P. AND- ALLOWING A DUE TO STUDY
I DON'T. THE CASELOAD IS MAYBE
DROPPING BUT I AND I DON'T
THINK THAT- THAT ACCOUNTS FOR
WHY WE HAVE A TEACHER THAT WE
HAVE A DECREASE IN BEDS RIGHT.
RIGHT SO WE BELIEVE IN
CERTAINLY IN THE S. SURVEYS
THAT THE DEPARTMENT HAS
CONDUCTED ON WHY SOME OF THOSE
FACILITIES AT CLOSE THEY HAVE
ACTUALLY IDENTIFIED. AT THIS
RATE AS ONE OF THE ISSUES THAT
THEY ASH STRUGGLED WITH AND
WHICH CHALLENGED WITH PART OF
OUR PROPOSAL AT THIS TIME IS
THE HOUSING- THAT'S ASSIST
HOUSING FUND- WHICH- ONE OF
THREE PURPOSES OF THE FUND IS
SPECIFICALLY TO ADDRESS-
STABILIZING. PICKED THE CARE OF
THIS POPULATION IN THOSE
FACILITY TYPES AND SO AGAIN-
BASED ON THE NEEDS THAT IN ANY
GIVEN REGION. THIS WILL BE ONE
OF THOSE THREE ALLOWABLE USES
OF THE FUN AT TO SUPPORT BOTH.
A POTENTIAL- STABILIZING RENTER
HAVING A RENTAL AGREEMENT
EXCHANGE BUT ALSO FOR. A
POTENTIALLY IN THE-
IMPROVEMENTS TO THE FACILITIES
THAT NEED TO BE DONE TO ENSURE
THAT THE TO HIGH QUALITY THE
AND THEN THE OTHER QUESTION.
UNDER THE OVERVIEW IS YEAH WE
WERE- SUCCESSFULLY ABLE TO-
BASICALLY GET. ALLOW PEOPLE
UNNECESSARY S. P. TO GET ON- A
CAL FRESH RIGHT- AND- SO I JUST
WANT TO CHECK IN IN TERMS OF
THE FOLLOW UP ON THAT AND DOES
SO MANY TOPICS TO READ THEIR
OWN ALSO PERSPECTIVE AS WELL
BUT FROM- SO HAS A HOUSE THAT
IMPLEMENTATION IN ROLLING OUT
I'VE BEEN GOING GOING IT'S
BEEN- PHENOMENAL AND WE ARE
GRATEFUL FOR THE PARTNERSHIP OF
OUR COUNTIES MANY BOOKS
ORGANIZATIONS WE HAD A VERY.
ROBUST ENGAGEMENT ENGAGE
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS THROUGHOUT
THE PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION
SO FAR INCLUDING ADDITIONAL
RESOURCES THAT WERE INCLUDED IN
THE BUDGET TO MAKE SURE WE WERE
DOING OUTREACH AT A GREATER
RATE HAS AND SO THAT THAT HAS
BEEN SUCCESSFUL WE HAVE- OVER
WELL OVER THREE HUNDRED
THOUSAND- INDIVIDUALS IN THIS
POPULATION AND ROLLED AND THAT
NUMBER CONTINUES TO GROW SO-
AGAIN JUST GRATEFUL FOR THE
PARTNERSHIP ACROSS THE BOARD TO
MAKE THAT A SUCCESSFUL IN AND
IT HAS IT HAS BEEN JUST THAT SO
WILL. NOT DONE THE BEST AT
PHENOMENAL SO THAT WORK I ONE
THINK THAT THE AND CERTAINLY
THE PUT YOUR PARTNER FOR MAKING
THIS HAPPEN I KNOW THAT. MEAN
WE HAD IT DECADES WE DIDN'T DO
IT VERY REASONS- AND THAT WE
WERE ABLE TO COME TO AN
AGREEMENT AND ATTACK LIMIT THIS
AND I THINK THIS SOME THAT
GOING TO FIT. ALMOST HOUSEHOLD
IS A- OF PEOPLE. DECIDE YOU
KNOW WE PUT IN MACINNES TO TRY
TO MANY FRAME WHO MIGHT AND
GIVEN THIS NATURE FORMULA TO BE
SURE WE- TO HELP THEM HARMLESS
AND- SO APPRECIATE THE HARD
WORK OF THE APARTMENT- IN IN
MAKING THAT. HAPPENS OF THANK
YOU. AL RIGHT OTHER QUESTIONS-
AT THE MET. OKAY I CAN'T ASK
YOUR QUESTION FOR YOU I THINK.
THE KNOWLEDGE YOU'RE YOU'RE
YOU'RE HEARING THAT YES THAT WE
HAD ON BOARD CARE SO YES THAT'S
HOW I THINK CENTER HER DAUGHTER
FOR LEADERSHIP AND- HOLDING A
HEARING ENSURING HEARING
ITSELF. OKAY ALRIGHT SO LET'S
GO AND MOVE ON- TO ISSUE TO
WHICH IS MORE SPECIFIC TO
HOUSING HOMELESSNESS PROGRAMS

FAMILY AND THE ONLY ONE OUT OF
FOUR CHILDREN- OF FARM WORKER
IMMIGRANT PARENTS TO GET A
BACHELOR'S DEGREE FROM FRESNO

THIRTY FIVE- WHEN I WAS THREE
WHICH SINCE SHE HAD THE CANCER
SHE ALWAYS STRUGGLED WITH HER

HEARD ABOUT IT FROM MY AUNT TO

WE GOT HER INTO SENIOR LIVING
WITH COMMUNITY EVENTS AND ALL

WELL AFTER THE SURGERY BECAUSE
OF HER HEART CONDITION WITHOUT
A WORD SHE DIDN'T DO WELL- SHE
RECKONED BEAT BADLY TO.
ANASTASIA AND BECAUSE SHE HAD

LUCKY ONES. SHE'S ONE OF THE
LUCKY. HAVE A LOOK AND I HAVE A
FEELING THAT IF SHE HAD BEEN

FOREMOST I'M SORRY TO HEAR
ABOUT THE LOSS OF YOUR BEER
YOUR MOTHER TONGUE SHE SOUNDS
LIKEAN AMAZING AND WONDERFUL-
HUMAN BEING. BUT YOUR STORY IT
YOUR STORIES ARE VERY SIMILAR
RIGHT TO A LOT OF THE
CHALLENGES THAT PEOPLE FACE IN
THE CENTRAL VALLEY AND- IT'S
NOT UNIQUE AND SPECIFIC TO THE
CENTRAL VALLEY IT'S SOMETHING
THAT. WE REALLY NEED TO WORK ON
AN ADDRESS AT THE STATEWIDE
LEVEL- YOU KNOW THINGS LIKE HOW
IN AND FOOD ENTRANCE SHE JUST.
NEEDS PORTABILITY ISSUE HERE-
AND I KNOW THAT THE PEOPLE AT
GREATEST RISK FOR BECOMING
HOMELESS ARE THOSE STACKED.
BECAUSE HOUSING COSTS EXCEED
YOUR 50% OF THEIR HOUSEHOLD
INCOME. OLDER ADULTS AND PEOPLE
WITH DISABILITIES AND THE
CENTRAL VALLEY AND BEYOND- YOU
KNOW SPEND UP 290% OF. OF THEIR
SSI ASSISTED S. S. P. GRANTS
FOR SMALL STUDIO APARTMENTS.
I'VE SEEN AND COME ACROSS A LOT
OF FAMILIES AND LOVED ONES
THAT. HAVE THE SAME CHALLENGE.
OZ SO WHEN WE TALK ABOUT
HOMELESSNESS AND HOMELESSNESS
AND CENTRAL VALLEY BEYOND- I
THINK THIS IS AN IMPORTANT
SHOULD I RESPECTFULLY ASK MY
COLLEAGUES TO THINK ABOUT THE
SS I SS P. AS A PART OF
HOMELESS EFFORTS AT THE CAUCUS
TO. ARE REALLY BEST BECAUSE OUR
BUDGET UP IN OUR BUDGET
SURPLUS- IT'S UNACCEPTABLE THAT
NUMBER ONE GROUP OF PEOPLE
BECOMING HOMELESS ARE.
CONSIDERED THE MOST AFFORDABLE
AND OUR COMMUNITY SO THANK YOU
FOR. I ALSO WANT THANK YOU SO
MUCH FOR COMING YEAR AND- AND
PRESENTING AND SHARING YOUR
STORIES WITH US- YOU KNOW I DID
THE KNOWLEDGE THAT THE CURRENT
PROPOSAL MEANS THAT- ACTUALLY
INDIVIDUALS ARE STILL BELOW THE
FEDERAL POVERTY LINE COUPLES
ARE KIND OF. AT THE FEDERAL
POVERTY LINE AND WE KNOW THAT
THE FEDERAL POVERTY LINE IS NOT
BASED ON CALIFORNIA ACOSTA
LIVING IT'S BASED ON ACTUAL
COST LIVING SO. WE KNOW THAT
THINGS ARE MORE EXPENSIVE HERE
IN CALIFORNIA FOR A LOT. OF THE
REASONS THE GOOD BAD BUT-
PEOPLE DOWN- BUT- THAT THAT
MAKES A HUGE CHALLENGEAND
THAT'S WHY ALSO I A AM I
APPRECIATE AGAIN CENTER TAUGHT
US HEARING AND- I UP AND SAYING
OKAY WELL FOR LOSING AB BEDS
FOR PEOPLE WHO NEED. TO YOU
NEED TO CARE BOARDING AND FOR.
DOING IN TERMS OF OTHER TYPES
PROGRAMS TO AND HOW WE TRACK
WHAT'S HAPPENING TO PEOPLE
RIGHT IN. AND DAY OUT FROM THE
MINUTE WE OF COURSE WE DO HAVE
A CHALLENGE WITH HOW MUCH MONEY
THEY GET HOUSE FOR SO- I KNOW
THIS IS. SOMETHING WE LOOK EACH
YEAR SHOP. YOU TO GO TRYING TO
PUT GET. ME SOME JA ACOSTA
LIVING WITH FIGURES FROM WE
NEED TO HAVE THAT. BUT YEAH WE
I SAREK. THAT IT'S OUR OFF
BEHIND AND WE'RE NOT REALLY
CATCHY UP OR KIND OF CREEPING A
LITTLE BUT NOT REALLY CATCHING

DISCUSSIONS MOVING FORWARD SO.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT
SOMEONE NOW THAT PUBLIC COMMENT
ON. THE SS I ISSUES- SO- PLEASE
INTRODUCE YOURSELF WELCOME.
JEFF TURNER GEAR. OUT WE DIDN'T
HAVE IT AB REVIEW TO SENATORS
UP FOR SIGNING ON TO A ONE
HUNDRED FOUR ONE HUNDRED. BUT
ON TO A BUDGET REQUEST FOR ONE
HUNDRED FOUR ONE HUNDRED.
BOTTOM LINE IS YOUR BUREAU A-
BUDGET IN SAID THAT. OVER EIGHT
HUNDRED DOLLARS PLUS IS
BASICALLY WHAT THE SSI
RECIPIENT. AND BOARD AND CARE
SINGLE FAMILY. SHOULD WE SAY
ROOMS ALL OF THEM COST NO MORE
THAN THAT- SO COST. AND THE
OTHER FACTORS THROUGH HERE AND
EVEN CAL FRESH YOU'VE ONLY GOT
LESS THAN A HALF A MILLION OF
THEM AND THERE'S ONE POINT FIVE
OUT THERE. SO EFFORTS TO
CONTINUE. I DO MY BEST TO
PARTICIPATE AND BRING IT BACK
TO YOU GUYS AGAIN. AND AGAIN.
THANK YOU WELCOME. HELLO KEITH
A MOTORBOAT WITH KARA SENATOR-
I WANT TO SPEAK ON YOUR STATUTE
STATUTES SAYS ON THE SS I S. AS
THE RECIPIENT IS TO A LARGE
OPPORTUNITIES FOR INDEPENDENCE
SO WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT A
HUNDRED PERCENT- OF THE POVERTY
LINE AND WHEN YOU'RE NOT
RESTORING THE CUTS YOU'RE
BASICALLY DOING A REVERSE OF
ENLARGING OPPORTUNITIES FOR
INDEPENDENCE SO IT IS CONTRARY
TO WAY OFF ELFARE IN
INSTITUTIONS CO TWELVE THOUSAND
TWO. IN A INTENT THAT THE
PROGRAM ITSELF THE SECOND THING
I WANNA ALLUDE TO IS WHERE THE
FIFTH LARGEST ECONOMY IN THE
WORLD. AND BEING SIDES- WE ARE.
EFFECTIVELY INSURING CERTAIN
PEOPLE LIVE BELOW THE POVERTY
LEVEL AND TO ME THAT IS CAUGHT.
THE DISHEARTENING THAT SUCH A
RICH STATE WOULD LOOK ALLOW ITS
CITIZENS OR RESIDENTS TO LIVE
AT THAT LEVEL OF A WAY OF LIFE
SO ANYWAY- MY FINAL ITEM IS
WHEN YOU NEGOTIATE WITH THE
FULL COMMITTEE AND ASSEMBLY ON
THIS SOMETIMES YOU NEGOTIATE IN
BETTER POSITION WHEN YOU
INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF MONEY IN
YOUR BUDGET BECAUSE NOW YOU'RE
AT A DIFFERENT NEGOTIATING
POINT THAN IF YOU JUST ADOPT
THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET AS THIS
THANK YOU VERY MUCH THANK YOU.

THE ADVOCATES PROPOSAL THERE
ARE MILLION CALIFORNIANS LIVING
IN POVERTY BECAUSE OF DECISIONS
WE'VE MADE AS A STATE. AND WE
ARE FACING HOMELESSNESS AND
HUNGER AND AGING AND DOES
ADDITIONAL HEALTH CONSEQUENCES
AND WE CAN MAKE THE INVESTMENT
TO START HELPING THOSE PEOPLE
MOVE. TOWARDS NOT THAT THE
FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL IS ENOUGH

WHERE WE ARE TODAY AND WE'D
LIKE TO START MAKING THAT
INVESTMENT TODAY SO THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. OKAY LEASE A COMMON
WITH THE CALIFORNIA LONG TERM
CARE OMBUDSMAN ASSOCIATION AT.
THE OUT OF POCKET- THE OUT OF
HOME MEDICAL NON MEDICAL
REIMBURSEMENT OF A THOUSAND
SIXTY NINE DOLLARS FOR THOSE
RESIDENTS ON SS I SS BE. MEANS
THAT AN ASSISTED LIVING. OWNER
OPERATOR IS OPERATING ON THIRTY
FIVE DOLLARS A DAY. IT IT IT'S
JUST NOT WERE NOT ALLOWING A
GOOD OPERATOR TO PROTECT TO
PROVIDE EVEN THE BEARS QUALITY
OF LIFE CITING CURRY JUST
ABSOLUTELY TO DO THIS PROPOSAL
BUT TO CONSIDER DOING AB A
PATCH ON THE SS P. SO THAT WE
COULD GET. MORE OLDER ADULTS
THAT ARE JUST OVER QUALIFYING
FOR SSI INTO THESE FACILITIES
AND GETTING THEM HIGHER QUALITY
OF LIFE. THANK YOU WELCOME. AS
CHAIR MEMBERS MY CAROL WITH
WESTERN CENTER ON LAW AND
POVERTY- A FIRST FOUR ONE THANK
SENATOR TARA FOR HER LEADERSHIP
ON THIS ISSUE AND REALLY HOPING
THAT THIS IS THE YEAR THAT THE
BUDGET COMMITTEE AT THIS
COMMITTEE AND THE ASSEMBLY
COMMITTEE CAN FIND A WAY TO
ACTUALLY START TO FUND THE
INCREASES I'M TWO THINGS I
WOULD JUST PULL OUT OF THE DATA
THAT THE DEPARTMENT PROVIDED ME
ONE IS THAT SINCE THE CUTS WERE
FIRST ENACTED IN TWO THOUSAND
AND TEN WE'VE ONLY INCREASE THE
S. S. P. GRANT ONCE ONCE IN
THAT ENTIRE TIME PERIOD. AND SO
I THINK WE CAN DO BETTER I
THINK EVEN IF THEY'RE GOING TO
BE SMALL STEPS CONTINUING TO
PROVIDE NO INCREASE JUST MAKES
THE WHOLE BIGGER EVERY YEAR
THAT WE TRY TO DO THIS SO WE
NEED TO START DOING SOMETHING.
AND THE OTHER THING I WOULD
NOTE IS THAT THE DROP IN THE
CASELOAD MEANS THAT OR JUST THE
LAST SIX YEARS WE HAVE A
REDUCED FEE INVESTMENT SAN JUAN
VESTMENTS BY OVER TWO HUNDRED
BILLION DOLLARS FROM THE
GENERAL FUND EACH YEAR BOSER
DOLLARS COULD HAVE BEEN PLOWED
BACK INTO THE GRANT LEVELS BUT
INSTEAD THEY'VE GONE INTO THE
GENERAL FUND FOR OTHER USES WE
NEED TO STOP THAT WE'RE GONNA
HAVE CASE LOAD REDUCTIONS
BECAUSE OF ATTRITION IN THE
PROGRAM THAT MONEY SHOULD GO
BACK INTO THE GRANT THAT WE
TOOK FROM CLIENTS THANK YOU
VERY MUCH. THANK YOU WELCOME.
HEY LOOK YOU CAN LOOK WITH
SENIOR IN THIS LEADING ACTION I
HAVE SOME OF OUR MEMBERS HAMMER

ALSO CARING FOR MINOR CHILDREN
SO A LARGE MAJORITY OF THE
PEOPLE I SEE ACCESS OUR FOOD
PANTRY- HAVE UNOFFICIAL
GUARDIANSHIP OF MINERS AND
THEIR FAMILIES SO THEY DON'T
EVEN HAVE THE BENEFITS THEY
WOULD HAVE AS LEGAL GUARDIANS
SO THEY'RE TRYING TO STRESS

BEGIN WITH THE OVERVIEW OF THE
COMMUNICATOR LICENSING PROGRAM.
THANK YOU. AT THE FASHION THE
TOOL. YES WILL AGREE A STATUE
AND IS THE UPDATE ON THE
INSPECTION YES THANK YOU OKAY
SO- THERE'S A LOT OF REALLY
pOVERVIEW OF THE INSPECTION TOOL
BUT I'LL JUST LET YOU KNOW
THAT- OVER THE PAST YEAR IN
TWENTY NINETEEN WE HAVE
DEVELOPED ALL THE TOOLS FOR ALL
OUR DIFFERENT FACILITY TYPES
AND ALL THREE PROGRAMS- WE
PILOTED ALL THREE PROGRAMS
COMMUNITY THE CAN THE-
CHILDREN'S RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM
THAT THE CHILD CARE PROGRAM IN
THE DON'T SENIOR CARE PROGRAM
THEY WERE ALL PILOTED
SEPARATELY. SO WE'VE BEEN
TAKING THAT DATA AND REFINING
THE TOOL- AND IS SO WE HAVE AN
NOVEMBER OF TWENTY NINETEEN WE
ACTUALLY IMPLEMENTED THE SENIOR
KERR TOOL FOR THE RC A FEES
AND- WE PLAN TO IMPLEMENT THE
OTHER TOOLS FOR THE OTHER
FACILITY TYPES THROUGHOUT
TWENTY TWENTY BY THE END BY THE
FALL OF TWENTY TWENTY- SO WHAT
I WOULD LIKE TO SAY IS THAT. SO
FAR THE EARLY FEEDBACK HAS BEEN
VERY. POSITIVE FROM THE
LICENSEES THEY'VE THEY REALLY
FELT LIKE THE TOOLS ARE MORE
THOROUGH AND GIVE THEM A BETTER
UNDERSTANDING OF THE
REGULATIONS- AND IT PROVIDES AN
OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE WHICH THE
PREVIOUS TOOLS DID NOT. SO WELL
AS WE COLLECT DATA WILL BE ABLE
TO PROVIDE YOU WITH INFORMATION
AS TO WHETHER IT REALLY IS
GIVING US A AT A HOLISTIC VIEW
TO BE ABLE TO. FOCUS ON THERE'S
THOSE AREAS OF. NON COMPLIANCE.
RIGHT HELLO. FINANCE WE
APPRECIATE THE UPDATE ON THE
TOOL NOW. AS WE MOVED FROM
KßT TO- TO THE NEW INSPECTION
TOOLS WERE STILL USED IT'S
STILL BASED ON THE MODEL OF
RATE OF HAVING- SERVE I GUESS
TRIGGER BASICALLY YOU HAVE SOME
INITIAL ELEMENTS IF THOSE TURN
OUT NOT TO GO SO WELL THEN IT
DELVES IN MORE DEEPLY CORRECT
YES RIGHT IT'S A DELL MAIN
FOCUS RIGHT TOOL THAT IS
DIFFERENT THAN THE CAT SO IT'S
BEST PACIFIC LEAD DEVELOPED
OVER THE ARTICLES IN THE
REGULATION SO YOU CAN DO A DEEP
DIVE FOR THE- NON. WELL I GUESS
WHEN THE MY QUESTIONS I HAD-
THOUGHTS WAS IS THAT- CERTAINLY
IS CO BOTH WHEN YOU DID KITTEN
AND NOW WITH THIS NEW TOOL- AND
I KNOW YOU COLLECTED DATA TO
LOOK AT WHICH PARTICULAR
QUESTIONS WOULD BEST REFLECT
THAT THE MAIN RATE. SO THAT
YOU'D SAID OF DOING EVERYTHING
YOU COULD DO- BUT- I WOULD
IMAGINE THAT FIRST OF ALL OVER
TIME THERE MAY BE SOME
EVOLUTION OF THE TOOL- AND ALSO
US- I THINK THAT. IN TERMS OF
CONTINUOUS EVALUATION OF THE
HOW AFFECTED THE TOOL IS AND I
APPRECIATE TRYING TO MINIMIZE
THE BURDEN ON HERE INSPECTING-
THAT IT WAS THERE ANY THOUGHT
OR ARE PLANNED TO. MAYBE TAKE A
SAMPLE OF THE PLACES BACK TO DO
MORE COPPER TO THE SECTION TWO
IS A WAY TO EVALUATE THE FACT
THIS IS A TOOL ARE TOP. IS THAT
INITIAL THE MAIN QUESTION IN
BEING SURE THAT IT. ACTUALLY OR
FLEX- A BROADER SAID ISSUES
RIGHT SO. THE PAGEANT. WELL
FULLER INSPECTION A SUB HER
EIGHT A SAMPLE AND YOU GO AS IT
HAS YOU KNOW WHAT WE HAVE
PICKED IT UP GIVEN HEALTH WE-
BUT USING THE TOOL AS IT IS WE
HAVE PICKED UP THE THINGS THAT
NOW WE PICKED UP BECAUSE WE DID
THIS FULLER INSPECTION- NOT
JUST ON THE ONE TWO. OBVIOUSLY
HAD A PROBLEM BUT ALSO IN SOME
THAT. THE INITIAL TOLD OKAY
EVERYTHING'S OKAY BUT TURNS OUT
WE DO FULL INSPECTION IT'S NOT
SO OKAY RIGHT DID SO THAT WE
HAVE A MEASURE OF HOW AFFECT.
HOW ACCURATE THAT DENNIS YOU'LL
I THINK IN TERMS OF JUST US IN
A SERVE AN ONGOING ASSESSMENT
TOOL OR YOU TAKE A SAMPLE AND
YOU SAY OKAY YOU KNOW WHAT
WE'RE COMING AND WE HAD TO
FULLER INSPECTION. SO THAT WE
CAN ACTUALLY SEE HOW HOW
ACCURATE ARE TOOL ACTUALLY IS
IN TERMS OF THE IN TERMS OF
INVESTIGATING THAT THE MAIDS IS
THAT SOMETHING THAT- THAT-
DEPARTMENT SAID. IT IS LOOKING
INTO A CONSIDERING. THAT AND
THAT IS SOMETHING THAT WE'RE
CONSIDERING BUT I WILL TELL YOU
THAT ALL OF THE PILOTS WERE A
COMPREHENSIVE TOOL THAT WE
DEVELOP THE STANDARD TOOL OUT
OF SO IF. IF WE HAD CERTAIN
VIOLATIONS AND IN SPECIFIC
AREAS IT TYPICALLY. WOULD HAVE
VIOLATIONS IN ANOTHER DOMAIN
AND SO WE WERE ABLE TO. PAIR
THAT UP AS THEY'RE DOING THEIR
INSPECTIONS IF THEY HAD A
VIOLATION THIS DOMAIN THAT WE
WOULD ALSO GO TO THE OTHER
DOMAIN SO BUT THERE IS-
CONSIDERATION FOR US TO
CONTINUALLY. EVALUATE THE DATA
TO SEE IF. THOSE FACILITIES
THAT WE'VE DONE TO SPOT CHECK
INTO COMPREHENSIVE. OKAY I MEAN
BECAUSE THERE IS CERTAINLY NO
YOU'VE COLLECTED THAT DATA FOR
ESTABLISHING THE TOOL ITSELF
SIGNED AND DATED DOES EXIST I'M
JUST SIR THANK YOUNG ONGOING
BASIS. AND TERMS OF. COULD USE
A VALUATION KNOWING THAT THE
TOOL ITSELF ALSO PERHAPS OF ALL
RIGHT AS WE LEARN MORE. AS
WELL. THAT IS THE PLAN OKAY ALL
RIGHT. OKAY SO. AND I THINK
THAT'S ABOUT IT OKAY WELL AND
IT SAYS THAT- ALWAYS
INTERESTING HEARING FROM PEOPLE
ABOUT THEIR FEEDBACK BUT GLAD
TO HEAR THAT- FROM WHAT YOU'VE
HEARD FROM THE CLIENTS IS THAT
THIS THE SOULS WORKING OUT
PRETTY WELL RIGHT WELL SO FAR I
MEAN THERE ARE SOME ISSUES WITH
THE LENGTH OF HOW LONG IT TAKES
BECAUSE IT'S EXTENDED THE TIME
FOR THE TOOL BUT FOR THE MOST
PART THERE PLEASE BECAUSE
THERE'S OPPORTUNITIES TO GO
OVER THE REGULATIONS AND
PROVIDE MORE ASSISTANCE. SO WE
SURVEYED ALL OF THE LICENSEES
AND DURING THE PILOT SO WE
COULD GET THEIR FEEDBACK AS
WELL AS WELL AS OUR L. P. A.'S
AND UTILIZE THAT TO MODIFY THE
TOOL OKAY. ALL RIGHT EXCELLENT.
OKAY SO LET'S MOVE ON TO THE
NEXT ISSUE WHICH IS- ON THE
ADULT RECREATIONAL RESIDENTIAL
FACILITIES AND RESIDENTIAL CARE
FACILITIES FOR THE ELDERLY.
OKAY IN THE FIRST QUESTION HOW
WITH THE DEPARTMENT GO ABOUT
FIGURING OUT HOW MANY SSI SS
HE RESIDENTS RESIDE IN THESE
FACILITIES- WE'VE BEEN WE'VE
BEEN STRUGGLING WITHOUT WE ARE
NOW WE NOW COLLECT INFORMATION
FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH
CARE SERVICES WHICH WE MATCH
WITH OUR ADDRESSES OF OUR
LICENSE FACILITIES. BUT IT
DOESN'T REALLY GIVE YOU A
COMPLETE PICTURE BECAUSE A LOT
OF THE TAX ARE DELIVERED TO
FAMILIES OR- SOME PEOPLE DON'T
EVEN CHANGE THEIR THEIR ADDRESS
AND WHEN THEY THEY MOVE SO. WE
HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY MORE IN THE
CURRENT PROCESS OF DEVELOPING
A- OUTWARD FACING PORTAL IN OUR
CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECK
PROGRAM. AND IT'S ALLOWING THE
PROVIDERS TO ACTUALLY- BE ABLE
TO. A POINT THAT THEY HAVE TO
IDENTIFY WHERE THEIR STAFF ARE
GOING AND SO THEY CAN
ASSOCIATION DISASSOCIATE
THROUGH THIS PORTAL SO WORK IN
A FOR CONSIDERING USING THAT
UTILIZING THAT PORTAL TO
ACTUALLY ALLOW THEM TO
ACTUALLY- ENTER INFORMATION AND
WHETHER THEY HAVE SSI CLIENTS
WILL HAVE A TRUE COUNT
ACCOUNTING OF THAT AND ALSO
OTHER ISSUES SUCH AS HOW MANY
DEMENTIA RESIDENTS ARE CARING
FOR MENTAL HEALTH OR-
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SO THERE AND
THERE'S A GOOD OPPORTUNITY FOR
US TO- EXPLORE THAT OPTION WE
EXPECT THAT PORTAL TO BE
COMPLETED BY- THIS FALL. WE
WOULD WE WOULD NEED LEGISLATION
THOUGH TO. MANDATE THIS FOR THE
REPORTING OF ALL FACILITIES.
AND WE LOOK AT IT IT'S A
PROPOSAL FOR TRAILER BILL
LANGUAGE IN THAT REGARDS- MORE
FOR FIRST LOOKING AT WERE
TALKING WITH THE CONTRACTOR TO
SEE IF THIS IS EVEN A
POSSIBILITY WE THINK AND IT'S
LOOKING PROMISING BUT YOU KNOW
ONCE WE HAVE THAT INFORMATION
THEN WE'RE GONNA. WILL LOOK AT
TRAILER BILL LANGUAGE. GEN THE
ADMINISTRATION TIMES ARE JUST
RESPOND FINDS THAT WE DON'T
HAVE A PROPOSAL OR TRAILER
BECAUSE OF RIGHT NOW RELATED TO
THAT CASE. AT THIS TIME OKAY
ALL RIGHT BUT I GUESS THAT
SOMEWHERE POTENTIALLY
INVESTIGATING THIS OKAY. AND
THEN THE SECOND QUESTION HOW
MANY OF THESE FACILITIES OF
CLOSED IN RECENT YEARS WHAT
AFFECTS HAVE THOSE CLOSEST HAD
ON CAPACITY OVER THE LAST THREE
YEARS APPROXIMATELY TWENTY ONE
HUNDRED FACILITIES HAVE CLOSED-
AND WE'VE LICENSE APPROXIMATELY
TWENTY TWO HUNDRED. IT'S SO THE
CAPACITY INCREASED BY FOUR
POINT 8% AND FROM THE DATA THAT
WE HAVE ON SSI IT LOOKS LIKE
THE SSI CAPACITY DECREASED BY
TWO POINT 6% OKAY. IN THE ANY
IDEAS TO THE REASON FOR THE DAY
WELL THE WAIT WE HAVE- MINIMAL
INFORMATION WE SURVEYED THE
FACILITIES THAT CLOSED IN THE
LAST YEAR AND ASKING THEM
SPECIFIC QUESTIONS ON ON
REASONS FOR AND IT WAS. MORE
LOW REIMBURSEMENT RATE SOME.
AND THE GENERAL YOU KNOW THE
JUST THE GENERALLY HIGH
OPERATING COSTS WERE WERE
FACTORS TO WEAR THE SAME. THEY
CLOSED BUT IT'S ABOUT WASN'T
ALL OF THEM THERE WERE SOME FOR
NON COMPLIANCE. BUT DEFINITELY
THE LOW REIMBURSEMENT RATES
WERE- WERE MENTIONED OKAY.
JOINT JUST WANTED AGAIN
EMPHASIZE THAT WE ARE
ABSOLUTELY- COMMITTED TO
LOOKING AT THESE FACILITY TYPES
AS PART OF A CONTINUUM ICE WHEN
IT RE RE EMPHASIZE THAT AGAIN
AND THAT'S AGAIN WHY- ONE OF
THE USES OF THE PROPOSED SEVEN
HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION DOLLAR
INVESTMENT IS SPECIFIC TO
STABILIZING THESE FACILITIES
TYPE SO WE ABSOLUTELY RECOGNIZE
THAT CHALLENGE IN THAT IS PART
OF THE SOLUTION THAT WE'RE
PROPOSING AT THIS TIME. OKAY
AND I KNOW WILL BE DELVING INTO
THE SEVEN FIFTY MILLION AND IN
THE FUTURE HEARING. BUT IN
TERMS OF. SERVICES WITH A SEVEN
FIFTY MILLION BUT- HOW YOU KNOW
HOW MUCH OF THE SEVEN FIFTY
MILLION DO YOU THINK YOU'LL
NEED TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE WE
ARE CURRENTLY PROPOSING TO
EARMARK AT THE DOLLARS- WITHIN
THAT SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY
FOR ANY OF THE SPECIFIC AT
THREE PURPOSES THAT THE FUNDS
WE WILL LEAVE THAT TO REGIONAL
ADMINISTRATORS TO PROPOSE TO
ASK BASED ON THEIR NEEDS
ASSESSMENTS SO IT WILL VARY
ACROSS. REGIONS IN THE STATE-
LATELY FURTHER THIS WAY WAY UP
THOSE INTO SPECIFICALLY
ALLOCATE AND THAT MAY BE
DECIDED AT A MORE LOCAL LEVEL
BY THE REGIONAL MINISTERS
WHATEVER MECHANISM IN OF
DEVELOPING. THEN I GUESS THE
QUESTIONS AND THEN AS THE
BUSINESS AND THEY'RE A COME
ENTIRELY OTHER CENTER FIFTY
MILLION BUT HOW MUCH MONEY
WOULD WE NEED THAT AND TO.
ADDRESS THIS VERY ISSUE ABOUT.
TRYING TO STABILIZE SO I MEAN I
WOULD DOUBT SO THEY MAY NOT ALL
COME OUT THAT'S A HUNDRED FIFTY
MILLION BUT I'M JUST TRYING TO
GET A SENSE OF SCALE OF AND
WHETHER DEBT THAT'S THE
DECISIONS CAN BE MADE BY HER
MACES DECISIONS ON THE SEVEN
FIFTY MILLION. IS STILL UP I
GUESS IS STILL UP IN THE AIR
TO. BUT I'D TO STOP DISTRACTING
LIKE SKILL WISE HOW MUCH MONEY
IF WE IF IT WAS SO DECIDED WITH
ARE WE TALKING ABOUT TO ADDRESS
THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE. THE
FINANCE I DON'T SEE THEM. WITH
THE WITH DEMONSTRATION DOESN'T
REALLY HAVE A PROPOSAL ON ANY
OF THAT RIGHT NOW TO THE EXTENT
THAT THAT'S GOING TO BE THAT
WOULD BE A CONSIDERATION THAT
WOULD SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD-
PROBABLY PROPOSAL CONSIDER AND
THE MASTER ENTERS A
CONVERSATIONS GOING ON BUT
RIGHT NOW UNFORTUNATELY WE
DON'T HAVE AN ESTIMATE ON THAT
DATE ALL RIGHT SO I MEAN I'M
SO. I HEARD YOU SAID YOU HAVE A
PROPOSAL NOT ACTUALLY ASKING
FOR PROPOSAL BUT I THINK AND
NUMBER FOR US TO FIGURE OUT.
YOU KNOW THE SCALE RATE. HAVING
SOME IDEA OF OKAY YOU KNOW WHAT
THE DECISIONS MADE OR NOT BUT
HOW MUCH MONEY ARE WE TALKING
ABOUT TO JUST ADDRESS THIS
PARTICULAR ISSUE BECAUSE WE CAN
THERE'S A WHOLE BUNCH OF THINGS
WE CAN THROW INTO THE COURT
SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION BUT
IT TURNS OUT WE HAVE. BY THE
WAY WE DO THIS ALL TIME BUDGET
RIGHT WE HAVE LET'S SAY TWO
BILLION DOLLARS WORTH OF DEMAND
FOR THINGS THAT ALSO IS THE
FALL THAT SAME POCKET THEN WE
HAVE TO HAVE A WHOLE NOTHER
CONVERSATION ABOUT THAT SO I'M
JUST TRYING TO GET SINCE WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT THIS ISSUE
GETTING A SENSE OF. WHAT THE
SCALE OF YEAH I WAS A WOULD
ADDRESS IN THE SENATE FIFTY
MILLION WHILE NOT THAT YOU'VE
SUPPOSEDLY ALLOCATING IT I
HEARD YOU SAY THAT BUT- SO
ROUGHLY HOW MUCH MONEY HE- IS
THIS. GOING TO. IT WILL WE NEED
IF WE WERE REALLY ADDRESS THAT
AT EARLIER DID YOU HAVE SOME.
COMMENTS ON THAT GINNY FELLOW
AT THE LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S
OFFICE. I THINK IT'S A GOOD
QUESTION I THINK IT REALLY
COMES DOWN TO HOW YOU WANT TO
APPROACH IT TOO AND I THINK THE
ADMINISTRATION'S PROPOSAL NOW
IS OPEN TO SORT OF A
COMBINATION OF BOTH- HELPING TO
STABILIZE THE FACILITY'S. FROM
LIKE AN INFRASTRUCTURE
PERSPECTIVE- VERSES KIND OF
THIS WITH THIS PIECE ABOUT KIND
OF THE RATE AND HOW TO
STABILIZE IT VIA SORT OF SOME
SORT OF SUBSIDY. SUBSIDIZATION
OF THE RATE. SETTING THOSE ARE.
THE STRIKING A BALANCE THERE
SORT OF IS THAT. PART OF THE
QUESTION IF IT'S MORE A AND
THOSE ALSO- INVOLVE MAKING
DECISIONS ABOUT ONE TIME VERSES
ONGOING COSTS AS WELL SO. WE'D
BE HAPPY TO PROVIDE ANY KIND OF
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE. ON TO YOU
OR TO STAFF AS YOU START TO
THINK ABOUT HOW TO HOW YOU'D
WANT TO FRAME THAT QUESTION
BUT- THOSE ARE IMPORTANT. KEY
QUESTIONS I THINK TO ADDRESS
FIRST. BUT I THINK IT WOULD
ESPECIALLY AS WE'RE GETTING
CLOSER TO ACTUALLY TALKING
ABOUT THE- QUOTE SEVEN HUNDRED
FIFTY MILLION ADDING WE HAVE TO
START. GETTING A SENSE OF HOW
MUCH. EACH PIECE. THAT WE NOW
SAY OH IT'S GOING TO BE
ADDRESSED BY THAT. PART OF
MONEY IT'S UNDER FIFTY MILLION
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT AND-
SOMETIMES IT MAY NOT BE AN
EXACT NUMBER MAY BE YOU KNOW A
BIT OF A SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS
AND- AND- YOU KNOW HOW THE
ACTUAL DECISIONS BE MADE JUST
GIVE ME ANOTHER DISCUSSION
WE'RE HAVING RIGHT BECAUSE HE
SAID WELL WE'LL GET THE ABOUT
THE REGIONAL MINISTERS DECIDING
ON THE LOCAL LEVEL WHETHER TO
GO TO SPEND THE MONEY ON THAT.
GOT EIGHT HEARD THAT WE WILL
HAVE A WHOLE NOTHER DISCUSSION
WHEN I GOT LIVE. TO DISCUSS THE
PRESENT BECAUSE OF VARIOUS WAYS
OF MAKING DECISIONS HERE RIGHT
NOW THAT'S FOR THE FUTURE
HEARING BUT- I THINK IS WORTH.
AS WE ROLL THROUGH HEARINGS WE
HAVE HERE AND YOU KNOW WE'RE
HEARING ITEMS LIKE THIS ONE AND
THE ANSWERS WELL WE'RE GOING TO
TRY TO ADDRESS THE
STABILIZATION. THROUGH THAT
OTHER PART OF MONEY. I THINK
IT'S IMPORTANT TO GETA SENSE
OF SCALE OF OKAY. FINE THEN. IF
WE WERE ACTUALLY GOING TO
ADDRESS IT IN THAT POT HOW
MUCH. ROUGHLY HOW MUCH MONEY
ARE WE TALKING AND EAT AND I
SAY HI. ROUGHLY HOW MUCH MONEY.
THANK YOU FOR TALKING. TENS OF
MILLIONS OF A HUNDRED BILLION
TEN MILLION A MILLION YOU KNOW
WHAT. WHAT WHAT IS THE SCALE
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT RIGHT SO
WITH THE SWORD THE BOUNDARIES
OF THAT AND I WAS. IN THE
DECISIONS MAY BE MADE EXACTLY.
WHERE WE ARE IN THAT RANGE THE
WHAT IS SORT OF THE- RANGE OF
MONIES THAT WOULD BE TALKING
ABOUT TO. TO ADDRESS THE GAPS
YOU KNOW THE STABILIZE OVER HOW
MUCH RENTAL ASSISTANCE ARE WE
TALKING ABOUT THAT WOULD KEEP
PEOPLE FROM BEING THROWN OUT OF
THEIR HOUSES ETCETERA FOR THIS.
PARTICULAR POPULATION IN THIS
GROUP SO THAT'S WHY I'M TRYING
TO. GET MY ARMS AROUND
UNDERSTOOD IN TE IN IN JUST TO
THE- TO THE QUESTIONS THAT
WE'VE HEARD EARLIER RELATED TO
PROJECTIONS I THINK THAT. THE
COMPLICATING FACTOR IN COMING
UP WITH THOSE PROJECTIONS IS
THAT THIS SECOND. I'M AND WE
CAN'T QUITE PREDICT. WHO'S
GOING TO SELECT IDENTIFY WHICH
CARE SAID. AND WHAT'S MORE. THE
MOST APPROPRIATE. IT'S BEING
ABLE TO STAY WITHIN THEIR AND
THEIR- MATCH. PROVIDER CAN.
WHETHER IT THIS AT. THE IS PART
OF THIS SINCE I THINK THAT'S
BEEN. THE MOST CALM. FACTOR
WHEN WE THINKING A- WHICH- IS.
WHAT BE THE- AT PLACE. IN
SETTING FOR ANY GIVEN AND-
JEWEL. OKAY I MEAN I GET THAT.
DOWN THERE THERE MAY BE
ALTERNATIVE SO THEY WON'T MISS
A STAY IN THIS BUT AT LEAST.
FOR THIS. ANY AND- THIS IS. IN
TERMS OF THE OF THIS SUMMER SO
IS THAT OKAY GIVEN THE CAR
POPULATION THAT THERE IN THE
SITUATION ASSUMING THEY MAY
MOVE TO SOMETHING ELSE AND THEY
WORK OUT BETTER OR SOMETHING
BUT JUST EVEN THE CURRENT
POPULATION ASSUMING THE STATE'S
BUT HOW MUCH MONEY WOULD WE
NEED FOR THEM TO QUOTE STATE
BUT NOW WE MAY PROVIDE A BETTER
ALTERNATIVE AND THEY WON'T SAY
BUT WE DON'T NEED THAT MUCH
MONEY IT'S AT- BUT I DID GET
AND IT'S JUST. JUST THE WAY TO
GET A HANDLE OF. ON THE END WE
HAVE TO DECIDE IS YEAH WE- IS
THE SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION
THE RIGHT NUMBER RIGHT IN THE
END ALSO RIGHT AS WE GO BACK
AND FORTH I APPRECIATE. YOU
KNOW. BE KIND OF LIKE THINK
THAT NUMBER BASED ON VARIOUS
FACTORS IT CETERA. BUT I THINK
THIS IS A SORT OF A CHECK ON.
IS A HUNDRED TO BE IT. WE NEED
FOR MORE OR LESS USUALLY IT'S
MORE THAN LAST BUT YOU KNOW
THAT SO JUST AS WELL AS EVERY
EVERY TIME WE HAVE A
CONVERSATION WE SAY OH YEAH WE
ADDRESS IT THROUGH THAT PART OF
MY THE- STATE OKAY- HOW MUCH
MORE MONEY TO. WE NEED FOR THAT
POT. OF REALLY ADDRESS IT THAT
WAY. SO IF THERE'S A WAY TO GET
BACK WITH SOME SORT OF.
ESTIMATE RANGE OR SOMETHING ON
THAT SCALE THAT WOULD BE
HELPFUL- JUST SO THAT WE GET A
SENSE OF HOW THIS IS ALL
STARTING TO ADD UP. IN THE END
SO. YES I KNOW YOU HAVE TO MAKE
A FEW ASSUMPTIONS THERE BUT
IT'S SERVICE. ESTIMATE OKAY.
RIGHT. YES THEY DO OKAY SO THE
THIRD QUESTION JUST DESCRIBE
THE PROCESS THAT OCCURS WHEN
THE FACILITY IS CLOSING ON THE
ROLE OF C. C. L. IN THE PROCESS
OF THE ADULT RESIDENTIAL
FACILITIES THAT- HOUSE CLIENTS
UP TO THE AGE OF FIFTY NINE
THEIR REQUIRED TO NOTIFY THE
DEPARTMENT WITHIN SIXTY DAYS OF
A SALE OF THE PROPERTY OR
CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP. THE RC A
FEES GREATER THAN SEVEN BEDS
ARE REQUIRED TO SUBMIT A
CLOSURE PLAN TO THE DEPARTMENT
WHICH WE NEED TO APPROVED ONCE
THAT CLOSURE PLAN IS APPROVED
THEY HAVE. SIX THEY CAN HAVE TO
GIVE A SIXTY DAY NOTICE TO ALL
THE RESIDENTS AND THEIR
FAMILIES- THERE ALSO REQUIRED
TO. PROVIDE FACILITIES WITHIN A
FIFTY MILE RADIUS TO THE
RESIDENT AND THEIR FAMILIES-
AND THE LATE WE THEY ARE
REQUIRED TO GIVE THE NUMBER THE
NAME AND PHONE NUMBER OF THE
OMBUDSMAN. AND THAT THE ROLE OF
CCL WE ASSIST WE PULL AND ALL
SORTS OF PEOPLE PET PUBLIC
GUARDIANS- APS- WHOEVER WE NEED
TO UP TO BE ABLE TO ASSIST IN
RELOCATING THE RESIDENTS WE
PLAYED HI AN ACTIVE ROLE WE
CHECK ON THEM AFTER THEIR
RELOCATED AFTER A- WEEK OR TWO
TO MAKE SURE THAT THEIR
ACCLIMATED. IN THE FACILITY.
MANY COME SELL EL CANCEL SHORT
LA OF- AS HAS BEEN MENTIONED IN
LIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATION'S
HOMELESSNESS PROPOSALS THERE'S
BEEN INCREASED FOCUS ON
BOARDING CARE FACILITIES OR
MORE SPECIFICALLY THE SICEL
LICENSE NOT RESIDENTIAL
FACILITIES AND RESIDENTIAL CARE
FACILITIES FOR THE ELDERLY. WE
WERE JUST HIGHLIGHT THAT THERE
ARE SOME DATA LIMITATIONS WHICH
REALLY MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO
FULLY UNDERSTAND WHO THESE
FACILITIES SERVE AND THE
SEVERITY OF THE CLOSURE
PROBLEM- SOME QUESTIONS THAT WE
HAVE OUR- AS AS WAS MENTIONED
IT'S DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE HOW
MANY AS A SIZE AS P. RESIDENTS
ARE IN THESE FACILITIES BUT
ALSO RESIDENTS YOU MAY RECEIVE
OTHER TYPES PUBLIC ASSISTANCE
AND- HOW HAVE CLOSURES IMPACTED
THESE LOWER INCOME MORE
VULNERABLE RESIDENTS IN
PARTICULAR. AND THEN FINALLY
WHO MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ACCESS
THESE FACILITIES AT ALL- EITHER
TO COST OR TO LACK OF SUPPLY A
MORE FOR SOME OTHER REASON SO-
WE'RE CONTINUING TO WORK WITH
THE DEPARTMENT AND WITH THE
ADMINISTRATION TO BETTER
UNDERSTAND THESE QUESTIONS. SHE
THE- IN THE COMMENTS OKAY ALL
RIGHT WELL- YOU KNOW EXCEPT THE
IT'S- FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET THE
DATA TOGETHER AND KNOW THAT- TO
CERTAIN DEGREE IT'S CHALLENGING
RIGHT YOU KNOW ITS- THEN WE
ALSO PEOPLE DON'T LOS NOW WE
WILL HAVE A LOT OF QUESTIONS
AND NOW YES RESIDENTIAL
FACILITIES WHO ARE NOW ASK
QUESTIONS OF PEOPLE MAY NOT
NECESSARILY WANT TO ANSWER ALL
OF THEM BECAUSE IT CETERA BUT I
MEAN I THINK WE NEED TO TRY TO
FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET A BETTER
HANDLE ON. ON THIS AND- NOW
WITH WITH THE GUILT DOLE. BUT
CHALLENGED BY- NESSA'S IRATE
THAT DOESN'T ALLOW PEOPLE TO
PAY IT NOW THAT THE AMOUNT OF
MONEY THEY HAVE TO PAY FOR
FACILITIES IS- AND THAT'S WHAT
THAT'S WHAT I HEARD ABOUT THE
DECREASING NUMBER AT THE
REIMBURSEMENT RATE THAT'S THE
PAYMENT RATES PEOPLE CAN'T DATE
THEY HAVE A CEILING WHAT THEY
COULD AFFORD TO PAY AND THAT'S
NOT ENOUGH FRIGHTENED SO
THAT'S- GREEN CHALLENGES FOR
OPERATORS BECAUSE THEY CAN'T.
THAT'S NOT ENOUGH FOR THEM TO
OPERATE EIGHT AND THEN- AND
THEN SO WHAT CAN WE TRY TO DO
TO DO THAT HOW DO YOU DO THAT
YOU KNOW MORE TARGETED TYPE
THING WORDS I THINK WE'LL TALK
ABOUT SOME FIFTY MILLION WITH
ONLY GET TO THAT. AND ALSO JUST
THE YOU KNOW LIKE WHAT THE WHAT
WAS THE SCOPE- TRYING TO FIGURE
OUT HOW TO DEFINE THE SCOPE OF
THE- OF THE OF THE PROBLEM. IN
ADDITION. TO DOING NAY. TO AT
LEAST GET ENOUGH THAT. PICTURE
SO WE KNOW WHAT. KIND OF SCALE
OF INTERVENTION WE NEED TO. TO
ENGAGE IN. SO APPRECIATE THAT
SO I LOOK FOR TO OUR ONGOING
CONVERSATION ABOUT THIS I'M
SURE THIS WILL COME BACK UP
AGAIN WHEN WE TALK ABOUT. THE
LARGER POT LATER ON SO. THANK
YOU. I DO WANT TO ADD THAT WE
HAVE EMPHASIZED THE PREVENTION
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE BECAUSE OF
ALL THE MEDICAL CARE ISSUES
THAT ARE HAPPENING IN THESE
FACILITIES THAT THEY'RE JUST
THEY'RE NOT EQUIPPED TO
UNDERSTAND THEY'RE NOT
CLINICIANS AND SO WE'VE REALLY
FOCUSED ON THAT AND HOPE TO
ATTEMPTED. TO REDUCE THESE
CLOSURES. ARMS SO YOU KNOW
WE'LL BE TRACKING THAT MORE WE
JUST STARTED CHANGING OUR
MISSION YOU KNOW TWO YEARS AGO
SO. APPRECIATE THAT YOU HAVE A
SOCIAL SIDE OF SOCIAL SERVICES
AS TREMENDOUS RESPONSIBILITIES
FOR PEOPLE TO. I KNOW YOU'RE
WORKING HARD ON THAT OKAY- SO
WE MOVE ON TO ISSUE NUMBER
THREE THE BCP A CARE GIVER
BACKGROUND CHECKS SO THIS
PROPOSAL PURPLE PROPOSES ARE IS
REQUESTING SIX ANALYST
POSITIONS STAFF SERVICES SALES
AND ONE MANAGER. WE HAD A
TREMENDOUS BACKLOG IT WAS
IDENTIFIED IN AN AUDIT A FEW
YEARS AGO SO WE LOOKED
INTERNALLY TO SEE HOW WE COULD
PROVIDE EFFICIENCY SO WE
ACTUALLY- JUST PUT WE HIRED
TEMP POSITIONS IN THE BLANKET
AND CREATED A UNIT THAT WE
FOUND TREMENDOUS- EFFICIENCIES
AND THAT WE PRIOR IT USED ARTS
SIMPLIFIED INVENTION AND-
EXEMPTIONS YOU TO TAKE TWO
HUNDRED DAYS WE GOT IT DOWN TO
SEVEN. SO THE SIMPLIFIED AND
INSPECT SOME SINS WERE
INTERSPERSED WITH THE X. INTO
THE- THE JERK. CRIMINAL
EXEMPTIONS AND SO THEY WOULD
JUST IN WE PULLED ALL THEM OUT
AND THEY WE HAVE A STE CREATORS
SEPARATE UNITS WERE ASKING FOR
THOSE POSITIONS NOW TO BE
PERMANENTLY ESTABLISHED. ALL
RIGHT. HELLO AFTER REVIEWING
THE PROPOSAL WE DON'T HAVE ANY
CONCERNS FINANCE. OKAY ALL
RIGHT THANK YOU SO. APPRECIATE
THE SUCCESS IN FRONT SAID TWO
HUNDRED SEVEN DAYS THE GOOD JOB.
FULL EMPLOYED FASTER AND YES IN
A WIN WIN THAT'S EXCELLENT
THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT HOUSE WITH
ON ISSUE NUMBER FOR THE
RECIPIENT QUALITY OVERSIGHT
STAFFING RESOURCES. SO THIS
PROPOSAL IS REQUESTING THREE
POSITIONS TO EIGHTY P. A.'S
THAT TRAVEL OUT OF STATE TO DO
THE OUT OF STATE GROUP HOME
INSPECTIONS AND CERTIFY THE
GROUP HOMES HONEST AS WELL AS
ONE AS A SAM ONE- WE CURRENTLY
HAVE TWO A. G. P. A.'S THAT
TRAVEL OUT OF STATE WE WEREN'T
ABLE TO DO ALL OF THE CODE AND
THE COMPLAINT INVESTIGATIONS ON
SITE- AND SO WE BELIEVE TO AND
TWO EXTRA POSITIONS WILL GIVE
US THE ABILITY TO. CREATE ALL
THE CERTIFICATIONS COMING UP AS
WELL AS AS THE COMPLAINT
INVESTIGATIONS. AND THEN I'M-
OKAY. JOINT GO AHEAD INTO THE
REMAINING QUESTION YEAH- SORRY
THAT YOU HAD A QUESTION I DON'T
KNOW THAT'S OKAY WHAT YOU TO GO
ANSWER ALL FOUR OF THEM AND
THEN ON HOW MANY OUT OF STATE
FACILITIES HAVE ONGOING
CERTIFICATION THEY DON'T
THERE'S NO TEMPORARY
CERTIFICATION THEY APPLY FOR
CERTIFICATION WE GO OUT THERE
AND THEY EITHER GET IT OR THEY
DON'T SO WE HAVE CURRENTLY WE
HAVE TWENTY SIX CERTIFIED
FACILITIES- IN ELEVEN STATES.
AND WHAT IS THE CURRENT RATIO
OF FACILITIES. HER INSPECTOR
WITH THE TWO WE HAVE NOW IT'S
THIRTEEN IT FLUCTUATES A GOES
UP AND IT GOES DOWN BUT BUT
MINIMALLY- IT'S TYPICALLY TAKES
THEM FIVE DAYS TO COMPLETE. AN
INSPECTION WHAT WITH THE TRAVEL
IN THE RIGHT UP- SO IT'S- WE
BELIEVE THE TWO POSITIONS WILL
REALLY ALLOW US TO. DO ALL OF
THE COMPLAINING BASS OCCASIONS
ON SITE. NUMBER FOR THE TRAILER
BILL LANGUAGE INCLUDED IN
TWENTY NINETEEN BETTER THAT
REQUIRED ALL OF THE STATE
FACILITIES TO BE CERTIFIED AS
AS T. R. TWO PIECE BY TWENTY
TWENTY WILL THE DEPARTMENT BE
ABLE TO MEET THIS GOAL WITH
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES. AND DID
THAT THE DEPARTMENT FOR SEE THE
NEED FOR ADDITIONAL RESOURCES
LAST YEAR WHEN THE TRAILER BILL
WAS. DISCUSSED. WELL AT THE
TIME WE THOUGHT IT WAS
PREMATURE TO ASK FOR MORE
POSITIONS AND THOUGHT WE COULD
WE COULD SOAR BUT- THE MORE
CLOTHES- BUT AS TIME HAS GONE
ON AS AS I SPOKE EARLIER WHEN
WE THINK THAT TWO ADDITIONAL
POSITIONS WILL. ALLOW US TO
MEET THIS GOAL. HELLO COMMENTS
REVIEW THE PROPOSAL TO HAVE ANY
MAJOR CONCERNS AT THIS TIME
THANK YOU FINANCE. RIGHT AND
TAKE A GUEST WHEN THE WELL. SO
I DID HAVE A QUESTION IN TERMS
OF. SO WELL I GUESS THE MORE
FUNDAMENTAL QUESTION AND TRY IT
SAYS THAT SO. WHY WHY DO WE
HAVE OUT OF STATE. THE HOMES
THE FIRST IS. THEY'RE TYPICALLY
BECAUSE THEY HAVE- BEHAVIORAL
ISSUES THAT WE CANNOT WE DON'T
HAVE FACILITIES TO SUPPORT IN
SOME INSTANCES- THIRTIES THEY
HAVE GANG RELATED HE WANT TO
GET HIM OUT OF THE AREA THE SEA
SICK KIDS YOU WANT TO GET THEM
AWAY FROM. THERE THE TRAFFIC
TRAFFICKERS THE- CHILDREN THE-
THEY HAVE AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOR-
CRIMINAL HISTORY THERE THERE
USED DAY AND THEY ARE ALL-
COURT APPOINTED TO GO OUT OF
STATE IT'S NOT LIKE A
DETERMINATION OKAY SO JUST TO
CLARIFY. CALIFORNIA BIG STATE
BUT NIGHT SO THESE HIGH SO IT
SOUNDS LIKE THERE'S MAYBE TWO
TYPES OF POPULATION ONE IS
SOMEONE WHO NEEDS A HIGHLY
SPECIALIZED SITE IS THAT THERE
ARE YOU SAYING IN TERMS OF THE
ANNUAL BEHAVIOR VIOLENCE IN AND
YOU HAVE ANOTHER GROUP WELL I
DID NOT SAY THAT INVITE THE
OVERLAP THERE. THE OTHER GROUP
TO JUST BECAUSE GEOGRAPHICALLY
NEED TO. KEEP THEM OUT OF THE
STATE BECAUSE OF. RELATIONSHIPS
OR OTHER TYPES OF ENGAGEMENT
THAT. TO KEEP THEM SAFE STATE
PROBABLY THERE'LL BE DANGEROUS
FOR THEM ARE ARE CHALLENGING
FOR THEM TO BE ANYWHERE WITHIN
THE STATE IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE
SAYING THAT'S RIGHT YES OKAY.
ALL RIGHT AND WHAT TO WHAT
DEGREE WHERE WHAT PERCENTAGE OF
THEM ARE BY RICHARD ARE ONES
THAT NEEDS LIKE HIGHLY
SPECIALIZED SERVICES THAT ARE
AVAILABLE IN THE STATE WILL
HAVE TO GET BACK TO YOU ON THE
WE HAVE. ABOUT TWO HUNDRED AND-
I'M NOT SURE THE EXACT NUMBER
BUT OVER ABOUT TWO HUNDRED AND
FIFTY CHILDREN OUT OF STATE
RIGHT NOW I'LL HAVE TO GET BACK
TO YOU ON HOW MANY. IN THAT.
OKAY ALL RIGHT OKAY ALL RIGHT
SO WE'LL I THINK THAT AND I
THINK WE MIGHT STILL HAVE AN
UPDATE DEL IN THE SALON WINE
SEARCHERS AS TO WHY DEL
CALIFORNIA PRETTY BIG STATES SO
IS LIKE BARRY WHITE WHITE WITH
A NEED TO BE OUT OF STATE
THAT'S ONLY THAT THAT'S A VERY
HELPFUL ANSWER NOW OKAY. ALL
RIGHT. OKAY ALL RIGHT SO LET'S
MOVE ON TO ISSUE NUMBER FIVE
WHICH THE B. C. P. ON CONTINUED
OVERSIGHT PSYCHOTROPIC
MEDICATION IN FOSTER CARE OKAY
SO THIS- THIS PROPOSAL IS
ASKING TO MAKE EIGHT LIMITED
TERM POSITIONS PERMANENT THAT
WE CURRENTLY HAVE ON STAFF-
SENATE BILL FORTY FOUR.
MANDATED THAT WE HAD TO DO AN
INCREASE REVIEW AND OVERSIGHT
OF THOSE FACILITIES THAT HAD A
HIGH USE OF PSYCHOTROPIC DOT
DRUGS FOR CHILDREN AND SO- WE
COME BACK EVERY TWO YEARS AND
ASK FOR- CONTINUED FUNDING AND
SO WE KNOW IT'S AN ONGOING
WORKLOAD SO WE'RE JUST ASKING
TO MAKE THESE POSITIONS
PERMANENT. OKAY THANK YOU HELLO
ON. ONE OF ANY CONCERNS WITH
THIS PROPOSAL OKAY FINANCE.
OKAY ALL RIGHT THAT SEEMS TO
MAKE SENSE OKAY THANK YOU. ALL
RIGHT- SO- THAT WOULD SAID TAKE
PUBLIC COMMENTS ON THE ISSUES
RELATED TO THIS. CERVANTES
SERVICES- INCREASE YOUR
LICENSING SO WELCOME THANK YOU
GOOD AFTERNOON LISA COLEMAN
WITH CALIFORNIA LONG TERM CARE
OMBUDSMAN ASSOCIATION WE- WERE
ABSOLUTELY IN SUPPORT OF THE
INCREASE FUNDING FOR THE
QUALITY OVERSIGHT FOR THE
BACKGROUND CHECKS GETTING-
THOSE STAFF BACK OUT INTO THE
FACILITIES APPROVED. IS A GREAT
PRIME PRIMARY IMPORTANCE TO US
I WANTED TO POINT OUT JUST A
CLARIFICATION I THINK WE KIND
OF DO SOME LANGUAGE ING ISSUE
UNDER THE SS I SS P. WE TALK
ABOUT THE FACILITIES THAT
ACCEPT THE SS I SS P. THAT'S
NOT AN OPTION IF A PERSON IS
LIVING IN A FACILITY AND
BECOMES ELIGIBLE. THEY GET TO
STAY IT'S NOT ABOUT THE
FACILITY ACCEPTING THEM SO I
JUST CAUTION IS ABOUT THAT
TERMINOLOGY. AND WHEN YOU'RE
LOOKING AT YOUR BACK OF THE
NAPKIN KIND OF HOW DO WE LOOK
AT THIS ALL OF 70% OF OR SS I
SS P. RECIPIENTS ARE ADULTS
THAT ARE DISABLED AS OPPOSED TO
THE 30% WE CAN DO THE MATH AND
SAID 70% OF GONNA GET ALL
BURKE. AND THEN THAT'S GONNA BE
THIS BIG PROBLEM IS BECAUSE WE
DO HAVE FEWER- FACILITIES THAT
WE CAN MOVE A PERSON IN WHOSE
ALREADY QUALIFIED FOR THE SS I
SS P. SO I WOULD REMIND THE
COMMENT I MADE BEFORE WE NEED
TO BE LOOKING AT PATCHES. WE'RE
NOT GOING TO CHANGE THE FABRIC
FEDERAL POVERTY LAMENT BUT WE
CAN PATCH OVER TO ALLOW THE
ADMINISTRATORS OF THESE
FACILITIES TO GET A REASONABLE.
DAILY RATE. OKAY THANK YOU.
WELCOME MISTER CHAIRMAN
RECTANGLE REPRESENTING SIX BEDS
IS AN ASSOCIATION OF SMALL SIX
BEDS ARE FEWER FAMILY TYPE
SETTINGS RESIDENTIAL CARE
FACILITIES FOR THE ELDERLY AND
DEVELOPMENTALLY DISABLED WE
HAVE WE SHOULD HAVE A SHARED
MUTUAL SET OF GOALS FOR THE
DEPARTMENT YOU'D CONSIDER THEM
TRUSTED PARTNERS AND YOU KNOW
WE REALLY WANT TO FIND YOU
AFFORDABLE SAFE APPROPRIATE
HOUSING AND THEY HAVE BEEN
CHAMPIONS IN THAT AREA WE FULLY
SUPPORT THIS PROPOSAL. THANK
YOU. WELCOME GOOD AFTERNOON
TIRE IN THE WITH THE COUNTY
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH DIRECTORS
ASSOCIATION WANTED TO TALK A
LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE
CONVERSATION AROUND BOARDING
CARES- SO WE WILL BE BRINGING A
PROPOSAL BEFORE THE COMMITTEE-
DURING WHEN YOU HAVE THE
HEARING ON THE SEVEN AND FIFTY
MILLION. WE BELIEVE THAT THE
NEED IS HIGHER IT'S BAD NOW I'M
AND WE'RE BRINGING A PROPOSAL
FOR FIVE HUNDRED BILLION
DOLLARS TO SHORE UP BOARDING
CARE FACILITIES- WE BELIEVE
THAT THE SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY
MILLION DOLLARS TODAY DOESN'T
PROVIDE AN ASSURANCE THAT. WE
WILL SEE THE BOARDING CARE
FACILITIES THAT WE ARE LOSING
WE DO UNDERSTAND THERE'S DATA
LIMITATIONS BUT WHAT THE DATA
THAT WE DO HAVE TO DAYS SAYS
THAT. IN THE LAST THREE YEARS
FORTY FIVE FACILITIES AND OVER
TWELVE HUNDRED BEDS HAVE CLOSED
IN LA COUNTY THAT PROVIDE-
SERVICES YOU INDIVIDUALS ON
SSI. BUT HAVE THIS YEAR IS NOT
ALONE IN THAT IS CREATING AN
ADVERSE CONSEQUENCES IN OUR
ABILITY TO ADDRESS
HOMELESSNESS. SOME OF THESE
FACILITIES ARE HOMELESSNESS
PREVENTION IT'S ALSO IMPACT IN
ON OUR CONTINUUM OF CARE
BECAUSE THEY ALSO SERVE AS A
STEP DOWN FACILITY. AND THAT IS
A LEADING TO WE HAVE MORE
INDIVIDUALS AND HOSPITALS THAT
WE CANNOT DOWN LEADING TO MORE
INDIVIDUALS AND EMERGENCY
DEPARTMENTS. GET IN. CREATING A
SYSTEMIC ONE. AND THAT'S THE
DATA FROM LA COUNTY BUT IT IS A
MORE OF A STATEWIDE ISSUE SO

TRAININGS- WERE ALWAYS LOOKING
FOR ADDITIONAL GRANT
OPPORTUNITIES AT THE FEDERAL
LEVEL THERE'S TWO MORE YEARS OF
THIS PARTICULAR GRANT THAT AND-

ADDITIONAL FUNDING
OPPORTUNITIES. YEAH I'M JUST
SENATE THINK ABOUT HOW WE
USUALLY USE GRAY ALIENS. I GET
THE GRANT WORLD- YOU KNOW
WHETHER SEVEN GOVERNMENT ARE
FROM NOT NOT FOR PROFITS OFF
TENDER TIME LIMITED. AND YOU
THINK ABOUT HOW EL OBVIOUSLY
BECAUSE YOU DO USE YES AND THE
MONEY ON THE THINGS THE GRANT.
ASK YOU TO WRITE THAT'S WHAT
YOU DO BUT ALSO HOW TO USE THE
LEVERAGE A GRANT TO BUILD
CAPACITY RIGHT OUT OF THE
BILL'S PASSAGE AND AS FAR AS
THE MSW STIPEND. THERE IS A LOT
OF INTEREST IN THAT RIGHT NOW
AND ESPECIALLY AROUND MAYBE A
PART TIME MSW PROGRAM BECAUSE
THERE'S A LOT OF. AGENTS THAT
SOCIAL WORKERS ESPECIALLY OR
INTERESTED IN GOING ON TO THAT
MASTERS LEVEL AND HAVING AND- A
MORE ROBUST CAREER PATH SO.
WE'RE HAVING A LOT OF
CONVERSATIONS WITH OUR COUNTY
PARTNERS AND AS WELL AS WITH
THEM. THE ADMINISTRATION FOR
pOPPORTUNITY IS THAT WE CAN.
EXPAND THAT IN PARTICULAR. INTO
ROLE WORK. PER BECAUSE WE'RE
INVEST IN TRAINING PEOPLE YACHT
SAIL INCREASING CASELOAD. IS
ARE WE ABLE TO RECRUIT THE KIND
OF A. WE HAVE OKAY. MORE OKAY
SLOW MORE WORK TO DO WE ABLE
RETAIN PEOPLE IN THE FEEL. I
MEAN I WE'RE DOING TRAINING OR

MOMENT I'M JUST TRYING TO GET A
SENSE OF. YOU KNOW. DO YOU HAVE
YOU HAVE THE PEOPLE WE NEED TO
TAKE CARE OF THE RISING
CASELOAD THAT THAT THAT
CERTAINLY. YOU KNOW WITH WERE

CHALLENGE- WITH THE- STATE THAN
PROGRAM THAT WE BEGAN WITH THE
GRANT WAS INTENDED TO BE A POP
UP PILOT. DO USE SEE. WHAT
EFFECT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN
ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO PURSUE.
ON THE ADULT RIGHT FIELD
BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT THERE IS
GOING TO BE THIS NEED- AND- SO-
WE'LL WE'LL SEE HOW IT WHAT THE
OUTCOME OF THAT PILOT IS AND-
IF IT'S SUCCESSFUL IN DOING
WHAT WE'RE INTENDING IT TO DO.
I THINK THAT. WE CAN'T WE CAN
RECRUIT BUT IT'S GONNA BE A
CHALLENGE. THE POPULATION
CONTINUES TO GROW SO WE WANT TO
REALLY. BE PREPARED FOR THAT.
OKAY SO DID YOU INSTANCE AND
I'LL JUST ADD THAT AS AS AT MR
LETZ MENTIONED THE WORKING
MASTER PLAN AGING WORKFORCE IS
COMING UP A LOT SO I THINK THAT
WE ANTICIPATE SEEING A NUMBER
OF RECOMMENDATIONS IN THE SPACE
FOCUSED ON WORK FORCE OKAY SO I
GUESS I'LL PUT IT IN- AND- YOU
HAVE THE GRANT. IT'S A THREE
YEAR GRANT. DESTROY AN
EVALUATION THE GET THE RESULTS
AND THEN EITHER WE LOBBY THE
FEDS FOR MORE TO GO I'M GOING

FOR THE STATE TO PUT IN SOME
MONEY ETCETERA BUT- THE ODDS BE
SUREWE DON'T LET THIS
OPPORTUNITY GO TO WASTE IN
TERMS OF THE OTHER VALUE EIGHT.
NOW THIS ANYTHING IT'S A PILOT
LIKE OKAY TELL ME WHETHER
WORKED OR NOT RIGHT SO WE
SHOULD WE SHOULD HAVE THERE'S
AN EVALUATION PROCESS WRITTEN-INTO THE GRANT OKAY. WE'LL BE

THAT'S- THAT HOPEFULLY
HOPEFULLY IF. THAT'S SOME PAUSE
RESULTS THAT WAY IN TERMS OF
RETENTION THEN WE SHOULD THAT
AND WE'RE SHORT A WORKFORCE
THAT WE MIGHT NEED TO THINK
ABOUT AS WE CONTINUE TO.
SUSTAIN THIS IS A- AS A WAY.
STRATEGY I DON'T HAVE FIGURES

BURN OUT LEVELS A LITTLE BIT
LOWER OKAY. LINE OF THE BURN A

PROTECTIVE SERVICES ALL RIGHT
WELCOME. SO EASY ASKS YOU CAN

THINGS. SHE'S GOOD AFTERNOON TO
EIGHT A CIRCUMVENT. RED LIGHTS
ON CAN YOU HEAR ME YES GOT IT
OKAY GOOD AFTERNOON CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS MY NAME ASSURING MIX
BATON AND I'M THE EXECUTIVE
DIRECTOR OF SAN FRANCISCO
DEPARTMENT OF DISABILITY AND
AGING SERVICES. I'M HERE ON
BEHALF OF THE COUNTY WELFARE
DIRECTORS ASSOCIATION AND A
BROAD COALITION OF STAKEHOLDERS
TO ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT TO
REDUCE SENIOR HOMELESSNESS BY
EXPANDING AND ENHANCING THE
ADULT PROTECTIVE SERVICES
PROGRAM. WE'RE REQUESTING A
HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS IN
ONGOING STATE FUNDS. THEAPS
PROGRAM WAS ESTABLISHED
ESTABLISHES A STATEWIDE TWENTY
FOUR SEVEN RESPONSE PROGRAM
OVER TWENTY YEARS AGO. SINCE
THAT TIME WE'VE SEEN
SIGNIFICANT RAPID GROWTH OF THE
SENIOR POPULATION IN CALIFORNIA
PARTICULARLY OVER THE LAST TEN
YEARS. THE INDIVIDUALS WE'RE
SEEING HAVE MORE COMPLEX NEEDS
AND NEED MORE HELP THAN WE CAN
GIVE THEM RIGHT NOW. THIS IS
COMPOUNDED BY THE HOUSING
CRISIS IN CALIFORNIA WHICH IS
PARTICULARLY THREATENING FOR
LOW INCOME PEOPLE WHO ARE
MARGINALLY HOUSE. WHEN A PS WAS
FIRST CREATED WE DID NOT
ANTICIPATE THESE TRENDS AND
GROWING NEEDS. APS CLIENTS ARE
AT UNIQUE RISK OF BECOMING
HOMELESS DUE TO THE TO ABUSE
AND SELF NEGLECT. DEEP
DESTABILIZING LIFE EVENTS SUCH
AS FINAL UP SORRY FINANCIAL
EXPLOITATION OR LOSS OF A
PARTNER CAN QUICKLY ESCALATE TO
AN ONGOING STATE OF HOUSING
CRISIS. THE CURRENT FUNDING
WHICH IS MOSTLY COUNTY
REALIGNMENT DOESN'T COVER THIS
NEW GROWING COHORT THAT NEEDS
MORE INTENSIVE SERVICES. SAID
LIKE TO SPEAK BRIEFLY ABOUT
RECENT A RECENT SUCCESS WE'VE
HAD IN SAN FRANCISCO AT THE
HOME SAFE PROGRAM. THE PROGRAM
IS HELP BRING OUR APS TEAM IN
CLOSER COLLABORATION WITH OUR
HOMELESSNESS DEPARTMENT AND
CONTINUUM OF CARE. AND IT'S
PROVIDE A CRITICAL NEW
RESOURCES TO HELP KEEP PEOPLE
HOUSE. WE SEEN REALLY GREAT
SUCCESS WITH THESE EFFORTS- I
JUST WANT TO SHARE ONE EXAMPLE.
HOBBY YEAR NOT HIS REAL NAME IS
A SEVENTY THREE YEAR OLD MAN
LIVING ALONE AND AFFORDABLE
HOUSING PROPERTY FOR FORMALLY
HOMELESS SENIORS. HE WAS
REFERRED TO HOME SAVE SUPPORT
DUE TO SELF NEGLECT. DID WAS
ONGOING HOARDING IN CLUTTERING
BEHAVIORS IS HEALTH AND SAFETY
OR COMPROMISE AND HE HAD
RECEIVED AN EVICTION NOTICE. HE
COULDN'T OPEN THE DOOR WAS UNIT
THE WINDOWS IN HIS UNIT WERE
BLOCKED BY CLOTHING PILED UP TO
THE CEILING. HE'D BEEN SLEEPING
ON A PALLET IN THE HALLWAY OF
THE BUILDING. HE HAD FAILED HIS
LAST THREE UNIT INSPECTIONS AND
RECEIVED AN EVICTION NOTICE. OF
YOUR WAS WORKING WITH A LEGAL
CLINIC FOR ASSISTANCE WITH THE
EVICTION NOTICE BUT NEEDED MORE
INTENSIVE SUPPORT IN CONNECTION
TO SUPPORT OF SERVICES. HE HAD
TO UNDERGO A DEEP CLEANING AND
IS HOME BUT WAS HESITANT TO DO
SO HE DIDN'T WANT TO GIVE AWAY
ALICE THINGS. IT TOOK SEVERAL
VISITS FOR HOME SAFE SOCIAL
WORKER TO BUILD REPORT AND GAIN
HAVE YEARS TRUST BUT SHE WAS
ABLE TO COLLABORATIVELY DEVELOP
A PLAN WITH HIM. USING HOME
SAFE FUNDS WE SCHEDULE INCLUDED
A DEEP CLEANING OF HIS UNIT. WE
WORK TO THE CLIENT TO IDENTIFY
NEEDED REPAIRS AND COORDINATED
WITH PROPERTY MANAGEMENT TO
SCHEDULE THE FIXES. WE HELP
THEM GET CONNECTED TO NECESSARY
RESOURCES INCLUDING IN HOME
SUPPORTIVE SERVICES AND MONEY
MANAGEMENT. AND DEVELOPED HIS
OWN PERSONAL SAFETY NET. WITH A
DEEP CLEANING COMPLETE. AND
HAVE YOUR CONNECTED TO OTHER
ONGOING SUPPORTS WE CLOSE THE
HOME SAFE CASES A SUCCESS.
WE'RE ALSO FINDING THROUGH HOME
SAFE THAT THESE CASES REQUIRE
EVEN MORE TIME AND DEDICATED
ATTENTION THAN WE HAD
ANTICIPATED. SO WHAT THE PROS
PROPOSAL BEFORE YOU WILL GET
THE STATE. THE PROPOSAL BEFORE
YOU TODAY WILL STRENGTHEN A
CRITICAL SAFETY NET SERVICE.
WITH A HUNDRED MILLION DOLLAR
INVESTMENT THE APS PROGRAM CAN
ADDRESS THE COMPLEX NEEDS OF
THE GROWING OLDER ADULT
POPULATION. AND WORK TO COMBAT
SENIOR HOMELESSNESS. INCREASE-STAFFING WILL ALLOW FOR LONGER
TERM CASE MANAGEMENT AND FOR
CASE WORKERS TO INTERVENE WITH
OUR MOST VULNERABLE INDIVIDUALS
AT AN EARLIER POINT. HOPING TO
AVERT SOME OF THE MORE
DIFFICULT CRISIS SITUATIONS AND
CONNECT PEOPLE TO ONGOING
STABILIZING RESOURCES. THANK
YOU- ANY COMMENTS FROM. SOCIAL
SERVICES ALL RIGHT HELLO.
FINANCE ALL RIGHT- SO FIRST
WHAT THE HUNDRED MILLION IS
THIS A ONE TIME IS THIS AND I
AND I MEAN. THAT THIS IS THE ON
GOING. IT'S AN ON IT'S AN ON
GOING SO IT'S BUT I DID MILLION
IS FOR THE FIRST YEAR OUR
SYSTEM MULTI YEAR SO I'M JUST
RANDY STAND WHAT YOUR REQUEST
FUND AT. MONEY WEISS'S SAYS
THAT'S UNDER MILLIONS THOSE
UNDER MILLION OVER X. YEARS
VALUES FIRST YEAR WITH ON GOING.
THANK YOU DOCTOR PAN IT'S A
HUNDRED MILLION DOLLAR REQUEST
THAT WOULD START IN THE BUDGET
YEAR. OBVIOUSLY START DATES.
CAN HAPPEN RIGHT WELL THE AS
WELL IF WE ACTUALLY GET TO BUY
ME YOU'RE ALL YOU'RE PROPOSING
REQUESTING IS HUNDRED MILLION
EVERY YEAR A YEAR AND IT WOULD
DO IT WOULD BE FOR THINGS THAT
WOULD IT WOULD LOWER THE AGE-
OF ELIGIBILITY FOR ADULT
PROTECTIVE SERVICES FROM SIXTY
FIVE TO SIXTY. WHICH ALIGNS
ADULT PROTECTIVE SERVICES WITH
OTHER OLDER AMERICANS ACT
PROGRAMS AND IS ALSO RESPONSIVE
TO THE RESEARCH. THAT THE
FASTEST GROWING GROUP OF
HOMELESS ADULTS ARE PEOPLE OVER
THE AGE OF FIFTY SO WE
OBVIOUSLY ARE NOT TAKING IT TO
FIFTY BUT WE'RE BUT WE'RE
BRINGING IT DOWN. THAT WOULD
ALLOW FOR MORE INTENSIVE CASE
MANAGEMENT FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHO
ARE EITHER HOMELESS OR AT.
HIGHEST RISK OF BECOMING
HOMELESS. IT WOULD EXPAND THE
HOME SAFE PROGRAM. SO THAT MORE
COUNTIES COULD PARTICIPATE IN
FOR THAT THE COUNTIES THAT ARE
PARTICIPATING CAN GO DEEPER
INTO THEIR NEED- AND IT WOULD
PROVIDE FUNDING FOR COUNTIES TO
PARTICIPATE AND- MULTI
DISCIPLINARY TEAMS LIKE
FINANCIAL BE SPECIALIST TEAMS.
WHERE APS AGING SERVICE SAYS
THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY LAW
ENFORCEMENT OTHER NONPROFIT-
FOR EXAMPLE PROVIDERS WERE
COLLABORATIVELY TO INTERVENE ON
FEET FINANCIAL ABUSE CASES. AND
THAT THE GOAL OF THIS EXPANSION
IN THE INSPIRATION OF THIS
EXPANSION WAS THE RESEARCH BY
DR TO SHELVE THAT HALF OF THE
OLDER ADULTS ON THE STREET
RIGHT NOW ARE OVER THE AGE OF
FIFTY. AND HALF OF THEM GOT
AFTER THE AGE OF FIFTY THEY
DIDN'T GET THERE BECAUSE OF A
SERIOUS MENTAL ILLNESS THEY GOT
THERE BECAUSE OF A LIFE EVENT-
OR POVERTY OR RENT INCREASE AT
THAT PREVENTED THEM FROM BEING
ABLE. TO CONTINUE TO REMAIN
HOUSE SAFELY LIKE LIKE THE
PERCENT ON THE EXTREME
DESCRIBED. SO AND PRIVATE SHE
GOT TOUCH ON THIS BECAUSE YOU
KNOW WE GET TO THAT CENTER
FIFTY MILLION THING- SO. YOU
AYE CHANNEL THIS THROUGH A PS
AND THE REASON FOR BECAUSE WHAT
YOU DESCRIBE THIS OKAY YES
SOMEONE IS AT RISK FOR
HOMELESSNESS AND- WITH A NEED
HELP AND YOU KNOW THEY NEED
SOME HELP FOR THE REST SO. AB
AND SECURE IS TO. WHY THROUGH A
TS VERSUS SOME OTHER MECHANISM
RIGHT NOW ALL THIS MONEY RIGHT
NOW YOU CREATED A P. S. TO BE
THE TWENTY FOUR HOUR STATE WIDE
RESPONSE TO ABUSE AND NEGLECT-
AND YOU CREATED HOME SAFE
WITHIN THE APS PROGRAM. TO
SUPPORT. OUR EFFORTS ON BEHALF
OF PEOPLE WHO ARE ABUSED AND
NEGLECTED WE BELIEVE THAT. BY
BEING ABLE TO FURTHER ASSIST
PEOPLE WHO COME WITHIN THE
DEFINITION OF THE PROGRAM THE
YOU ALREADY CREATED WE CAN
SUPPORT THE ACTIVITIES THAT ARE
FUNDED. OUT OF THE SEVEN
HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION
DOLLAR FUND WE DEFINITELY SEE
THIS IS COMPLEMENTARY. BUT
THOSE ARE COMPETITIVELY
PROCURED THERE BASED ON
WEEKENDS SOME ENTITIES WILL
PARTICIPATE AND SOME WON'T.
WHERE'S THE PS PROGRAM IS THE
STATEWIDE MANDATED RESPONSE TO
USE GLASS. AND IT'S BASED ON
THE RESEARCH THAT IDENTIFIES
THOSE PEOPLE OPPORTUNE. HIGH
RISK THAT WE THINK THAT. WITH
WITH WHAT IS IN THE GRAND
SCHEME OF THINGS A PRETTY
MODEST ANNUAL INVESTMENT WE CAN
START TO CHIP AWAY AT THAT
GROUP THOSE PEOPLE OVER FIFTY.
FOR THE FASTEST GROWING GROUP
OF PEOPLE WHO ARE ON THE
STREET- AND WE BELIEVE THAT WE
CAP AND START TO BEND THE CURVE
ON THAT. WHILE OTHER
HOMELESSNESS SERVICES PROVIDERS
WERE FUNDED THROUGH KEEP IT
HAPPENED THE NEW FIND THAT THE
GOVERNOR HAS PROPOSED CONTINUE
TO DO THINGS- LIKE DO BOOT TO
STAND UP NAVIGATION CENTERS ARE
TOO LONG TERM RENTAL SUBSIDY
PROGRAMS- AND THE OTHER VARIOUS
GREAT THINGS THAT COULD BE
FUNDED. OUT OF THAT FOR. SO
IT'S AS IF THIRTY AND HERE YOU
SEE EIGHT. ADULT EIGHT SIXTY
SIXTY FIVE WHO. ARE WHO
IDENTIFIED WITHIN THE APS DUDE.
HOW DO YOU HAVE AN ESTIMATE HOW
MANY PEOPLE WERE TALKING ABOUT
ROUGHLY. THE STATE. ELIZA
REALLY WE DON'T HAVE AN S. TO
OF THE OF PEOPLE THAT COULD
POTENTIALLY COME TO OUR
ATTENTION. BUT I THINK THAT THE
ESTIMATE THAT WE HAVE IN THE WE
CAN BE SURE BACK UP WITH YOU
AND YOUR STAFF. IS A TO BE
ABOUT THIRTY THOUSAND
ADDITIONAL VICTIMS OF ELDER
ABUSE AND NEGLECT. THAT COULD
BE ASSISTED WITH THE
AUGMENTATION WERE HAPPY TO
SHARE THAT YOU GOT YOUR YOUR
YOUR OLD PROJECTING YEAH YEAH I
THIS FUND WOULD ESSENTIALLY
ASSIST ABOUT THREE HUNDRED.
THIRTY THOUSAND ADDITIONAL
PEOPLE WITH THE CASE MANAGEMENT
AND SAFE AND HOME SAFE AND THEN
THE OTHER PART IS THIS. BEST
PRACTICES CENTER THAT'S
DIFFERENT OKAY. ALL RIGHT OKAY
SAYING ALL RIGHT NOW THANK YOU
ANY OTHER COMMENTS THAN NATIONS
ALL RIGHT. NOW HOME SAFE IS
JUST STARTING RATE SO WE WORST
SO WE'RE STILL WAITING TO GET
SOME REST IT'S FOR THAT BY ARE
YOU TALK ABOUT ADDITIONAL
EXPERIENCE READY THAT SAN
FRANCISCO SAID AND WE'RE IS
EAGER TO WORK WITH THE
DEPARTMENT AND YOU SEE A FAST
SAYS ANYONE TO GET THAT
EVALUATION INFORMATION OKAY
BECAUSE RIGHT NOW WE HAVE FIVE
MILLION PER YEAR FOR THREE
YEARS RIGHT ON I'M SELF HOME
SAFE SO WE ARE LOOKING AT 25%
FROM FIVE TO TWENTY FIVE IT
ALSO I MEAN THE GOVERNOR'S ALSO
PROPOSED A BIT HARD TO ACTUALLY
TO TWENTY FIVE TO THIRTY ASSUME
YOU'RE NOT SAYING THAT. TO TAKE
AWAY THE FIVE SO WRECKED. THE
GONNA SAY THAT THAT. THE
GOVERNOR'S PROPOSED A- A ROOT
CAUSES STUDY- THAT WE THINK
THIS COMPLEMENTS AS WELL AND WE
REALLY DO NEED TO FIGURE OUT
WHAT'S HAPPENING IMMEDIATELY
BEFORE. SOMEONE GOES FROM ONE
HOUSE STE- YEAH. FROM HOUSE TO
ON HOUSED IN AND WHAT COULD ANY
OF US TO. TO HAVE PREVENTED
THAT AND FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHO
FALL INTO HOMELESSNESS HOW COME
WE QUICKLY- BEFORE THE D.
COMPENSATING THAT OCCURS. GET
PEOPLE RE HOUSE AND SO WE
BELIEVE THAT THE EXPERIENCE OF
HOME SAFE ALSO ELUCIDATE. AND
COMPLEMENT THAT RESEARCH. OKAY
I CERTAINLY APPRECIATE THAT
APPROACH BECAUSE I THINK IN. MY
VIEW AYE THIS IS THAT. WHEN
SOMEONE BECOMES HOMELESS I MEAN
THAT'S THAT'S A- CRITICAL
EVENTS RATE I MEAN- TERMITE
PEOPLE I DON'T THINK PEOPLE.
END UP HOMELESS BECAUSE THEY
HAVE MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS
RIGHT WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT. NOT
SAY THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO HAVE
DON'T HAVE MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES
IS THAT WHEN THEY BECOME
HOMELESS THOSE GET COMMENDED
EXACERBATED AND THEN YOU GO LOW
AT ALL THE- HOLD THIS. TO SEE A
THE AS WELL. ACTUALLY IT'S- TO
HELP US. BECAUSE I KNOW HOW SHE
FOR AND SAME WITH A ISSUE AND
TYPES THINGS. KEEP FOR HOW. THE
IS THAN TRYING TO REACH SOME
WHAT THEY'RE READY ON STATE AND-
BASIC. THE SPECIAL THAT AND
EVERYTHING ELSE THE UNSTATED.
BECAUSE THERE WAS SO. I DO
APPRECIATE. AND TRUST PART YES
WANT. IT JUST AT THE ONE OF THE
THINGS WE SEE A LOT OF IS THE
MAIN. AND SO WORSE A CAR AND IN
IN THE FORM OF DEMENTIA WERE
SEEN. CERTAINLY THE NEED FOR
LAW TERM CASE. AND UP. SO WILL.
VERY SPECIAL SIR. SO SING HOME
PEOPLE IMMERSING ON PEOPLE WHO
HAVE THAT CONTENT HAVE
IMPAIRMENT WE KNOW THAT WE NEED
TO SPEND MORE TIME SO THEM.
