Today's
meeting
of
the
neighborhood
and
affordable
housing,
Advisory
Board,
is
called
to
order
on
April
9th
2019.
Welcome
to
everybody.
The
agendas
of
today's
meetings
are
on
the
wall
at
the
entrance
of
chambers
and
please
remember
to
turn
off
your
cell
phones
to
ensure
complete
record
of
the
board's
actions.
We
ask
that
each
individual
wishing
to
speak
clearly
state
your
name
and
spell
your
last
name
for
the
clerk.
G
I
I
will
be
leaving
early
today
and
that's
why
we're
taking
this
out
or
I
just
want
to
cover
a
couple
of
items
that
I
wanted
to
make
the
board
aware
of
it.
This
this
meeting
will
be
videotaped.
I
will
have
the
opportunity
to
see
all
of
the
presentations,
even
though
I'm
leaving
early
today
so
smile
at
the
podium
when
you're
up
there.
I
I
Hopefully,
in
the
next
meeting,
so
we
have
an
advisory
board
meeting
an
advisory
board
dinner,
a
recognition
that
are
coming
out
from
April
30th.
It
will
be
at
the
Sheraton
Sand
Key.
You
should
have
all
received
your
invitation.
If
you
haven't,
let
me
know
I'll
make
sure
to
get
them.
It's
going
to
be
April,
30th
or
5:30
p.m.
I
So
this
meeting
today,
as
we
know,
is
to
have
presentations
for
all
of
our
applicants.
The
technical
review
committee
is
here
today.
There
are
four
members
on
the
type
of
technical
review
committee.
They
will
review
the
application
applications
over
the
next
week
or
two,
so
they
are
here
today
just
to
give
you
some
context
as
to
what
we're
looking
at
the
public
services
really
is
the
key
component.
That's
that's
the
most
competitive
aspect
of
what
we're
doing.
Today.
We
have
eleven
applicants
that
have
submitted
for
public
public
service.
Grant
money.
I
We
don't
know
exactly
with
the
allocation
from
HUD
is
going
to
be.
What
we
do
at
this
time
is
we
assume
we're
going
to
get
the
same
allocation
laughter
if
that
holds
true,
we'll
get
similar
in
the
neighborhood
of
$111,000
to
distribute
among
public
service
settlements.
So
that's
where
we're
at
what
we
do.
The
Technical
Review
Committee
will
rank
the
applicants,
we'll
have
three
tiers,
a
top
tier
and
middle
tier
and
a
lower
tier
and
the
funding
will
be
distributed
according
to
that.
So
that's
where
wrap
we're,
also
getting
rid
of
public
facilities
presentations.
I
I
B
The
next
order
of
business
is
the
agency
presentations
of
their
applications
for
fiscal
year,
2019
2020
annual
action
plan
funding
from
February
22nd
through
March
22nd,
the
city
received
applications
for
funding
in
its
upcoming
annual
action
plan.
Each
applicant
will
have
the
opportunity
to
present
its
proposed
project
or
public
service
to
the
board.
This
morning,
please
be
mindful:
each
agency
has
three
minutes
for
its
presentation,
and
the
board
will
have
an
opportunity
to
ask
questions
following
each
presentation.
There's
a
lighting
system
place
on
the
podium
for
the
presenters.
B
B
I'm
sorry
I
will
call
the
agencies
forward
to
present
in
the
same
order
that
the
applications
were
submitted
to
the
city.
The
agency
that
submitted
first
will
be
the
first
to
present
and
so
on.
The
first
presentation
will
be
the
homeless
emergency
project
to
present
their
requests
from
adult
shelter,
salary
support.
Please
come
forward.
J
My
name
is
Zach
white
last
name,
WH
ite
pleased
to
be
here
with
you
this
morning
and
request
proposals.
We
have
two
one
is
in
regards
to
a
$25,000
request
for
support
of
our
emergency
shelter
staff.
Historically,
since
1986
HTP
has
been
the
prominent
homeless
and
housing
provider
in
north
penniless
county,
definitely
the
largest
most
comprehensive.
So
aside
from
our
continual
expansion
of
wraparound
services,
support
services,
clinical
wellness
services,
our
continuous
effort
in
aligning
every
appropriate
resource
possible
to
ensure
ample
opportunity
towards
success,
sustainability
and
independence
for
the
populations
that
we're
serving
this
continuum.
J
It's
very
common
for
us
to
intervene
on
various
levels
with
the
many
residents
that
we
house
on
any
given
day,
the
changing
landscape
of
funding
and
the
prioritization
of
various
funding
streams
through
the
homeless
leadership
board.
I
I
believe
that
HTP
stands
to
lose
African
amount
of
funding
in
support
of
our
emergency
shelter
program
through
the
prioritization
of
ESG
funds,
and
so
I
feel
like
it's
more
important
now
than
ever
that
represent
to
you
today.
In
support
of
these.
These
efforts,
a.
J
Thank
you,
jack.
Do
I
do
I
this
time
address
the
the
other
proposal
through
please,
please
so
I
feel
this
proposal
is
very
contiguous
to
our
continued
our
continuous
efforts
of
improving
our
emergency
shelter.
Last
year,
we
we
were
supported
through
some
funding
for
an
industrial
sized
generator,
so
in
the
event
of
a
hurricane
or
some
other
natural
disaster.
J
This
emergency
shelter
will
be
a
very
well
sustained
fortified
structure
to
house
these
individuals
right
in
the
center
of
our
emergency
shelter
is
our
full-service
dining
hall,
where
we
last
year
served
just
over
one
hundred
and
ten
thousand
meals.
This
this
industrial
generator
that's
currently
going
through
permitting
and
will
be.
J
Some
minor
structural
issues
have
an
inclined
structural
issues
more
just
stucco
replacement
things
of
this
nature,
building
out
certain
portions
of
the
shelter
more
appropriately
with
with
block,
as
opposed
to
the
existing
wood
structure
that
exists.
So
it's
a
it's.
It's
really
just
a
prominent
focus
of
safety
and
security
for
for
the
for
the
building
for
the
residence
house
there
and
so
I
would
anticipate
some
questions
today.
I'm
sure.
H
F
Morning
on
James
dates
on
the
regional
vice
president
for
WestCare
Gulf
Coast
Florida,
spelling
of
the
last
name,
is
D
like
in
David
ates
we're
requesting
$25,000
in
support
of
our
turning
point.
Turning
Point
is
an
inebriate
intake
facility,
as
well
as
a
homeless
shelter.
It's
a
65
bed
facility
located
in
st.
Petersburg.
Last
year,
we
served
eleven
hundred
twenty
six
individuals
of
those
238
identified
themselves
as
Clearwater
residents
prior
to
entering
our
program.
F
The
way
turning-point
works
essentially
is
we
take
referrals
from
other
agencies
as
well
as
law
enforcement
or
self
referrals
to
come
into
the
program.
Basically,
everybody
that
comes
into
the
program
is
under
the
influence.
They
spend
their
first
three
days
on
max
and
their
direct
observation
area,
where
our
staff
can
see
them
in
case
they
have
any
medical
issues
at
the
end
of
the
three
days.
F
We
ask
them
if
they
want
to
continue
on
the
path
of
sobriety
if
they
say
yes,
we
enrolled
it
in
a
30-day
program,
really
receive
case
management,
services,
employment
services
and,
basically,
a
treatment
plan.
At
the
end
of
their
30
days,
we
try
to
transition
them
to
other
sober
living
environments,
so,
for
instance,
they
could
transition
to
our
mustardseed
end
program
where
we
run
a
program
in
a
jail
diversion
program
in
conjunction
with
the
public
defender's
office,
or
we
refer
them
to
other
sober
living
environments.
F
B
F
F
B
A
F
Typically,
if
they
come
from
Claire,
where,
if
they're
transported,
it's
a
law-enforcement,
drop-off
okay
and
we,
we
guarantee
law-enforcement
agencies
a
ten
minute
turnaround
time
so
they'll
be
at
our
place.
No
more
than
ten
minutes
before
we
take
the
fur
coats
off
their
hands
in
their
back
to
doing
what
they
did.
F
Probably
about
60%
of
the
folks,
there
stay
the
30
days,
the
other
people
at
the
end
of
3
days.
If
they
say
no,
thanks
we're
not
interested,
we
kind
of
shake
their
hand
they
leave.
They
can
come
back
again
in
30
days
and
try
again,
you
know
we
just
don't
you
know
you
just
can't
come
in
and
out
every
day,
so.
A
K
Good
morning
my
name
is
Cathy
Russell
ru,
SSE
LL
I
want
to
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
you
and
for
your
past
support,
clear
water
funding
is
a
vital
part
of
our
funding
for
seniors
in
this
community,
and
we
are
one
of
the
only
programs
that
does
provide
support
for
people
over
60.
Our
mission
is
to
help
those
who
can
no
longer
help
themselves
can't
afford
it
or
have
no
one
else,
to
help
them
with
household
cleaning
yard
work
and
minor
repairs.
K
Our
goal
is
to
keep
them
in
their
own
home,
independent
and
to
age
in
place.
We're
asking
for
$25,000
to
serve
31
clients
this
year,
with
over
600
hours
of
direct
service
last
year
about
13%
of
our
clients
were
from
the
city
of
Clearwater
and
of
that
number
over
50%
were
below
30%
ami,
which
means
that
they
made
less
than
$1,100
a
month.
Currently
on
this
current
grant
that
we
have
we've
already
served
36
clients
and
we've
that's
over
500
hours
of
direct
services.
K
Our
current
waitlist
is
a
hundred
and
one
which
is
about
17%
of
our
clients,
and
the
services
we
provide.
The
inside
is
we
do
vacuuming
clean
the
baseboards
ceiling
fans
windows
screens.
Do
all
the
appliances
like
a
spring
cleaning,
the
yard
work
includes
mowing
raking,
weeding
and
debris.
Removal,
and
our
minor
repairs
are
just
very
simple
things
that
don't
require
a
license,
such
as
a
trophy
faucet
or
a
leaking
toilet.
Something
to
that
effect.
The
best
way
to
describe
our
program
is
to
put
a
face
on
it.
K
We
served
a
73
year
old
gentleman
and
clear
water
recently
who
suffer
from
depression
and
had
severe
mobility
problems.
This
house
was
roach-infested
had
a
very
bad
odor
and
of
debris.
His
homeowners
association
had
threatened
to
clean
it
up
the
and
charge
him
for
it
and
he
couldn't
afford
it.
So
he
called
us.
K
It
took
us
four
days
to
clean
the
home
for
him
and
we
moved
three
tons
of
debris
from
the
home
and
the
home
is
now
in
livable
condition,
and
the
homeowners
association
is
happy
with
what
we
have
done
and,
as
always
I
have
to
talk
about
my
staff.
Some
of
my
staff
has
been
with
the
program
for
over
thirty
years.
They
have
a
complete
dedication
to
serving
the
elderly,
and
I
can
guarantee
you
that
no
two
days
are
alike
to
have
any
questions.
K
L
We
are
one
of
eight
family
centers,
some
funded,
partially
funded
by
juvenile
Welfare
Board
about
60%
of
our
funding
comes
from
maneuver
and
Welfare
Board.
Unlike
many
of
the
other
centers
who
received
more,
we
also
have
the
largest
geographic
area,
because
we
have
a
portion
of
Clearwire.
We
have
all
smart
and
we
have
Safety
Harbor.
Our
bread
applies
only
to
Clearwater
residents.
We
had
twenty.
Four
thousand
people
come
through
our
doors
last
year
about
thirty
five
to
forty
percent
are
Clearwater
residents.
L
We
provide
critical
basic
needs:
food
clothing,
hygiene
products,
diapers
dog
food,
pet
food
for
free
to
any
of
the
residents
to
live
in
our
service
area.
If
someone
is
from
Clearwater
and
outside
our
our
main
three
three,
seven,
five,
nine
or
six
one,
we
give
them
the
emergency
food
and
then
redirect
them
to
other
food
pantries
in
the
area.
L
We
do
limited
financial
support,
a
utility
support,
as
you
know,
if
what
our
electric
door
turned
off
in
the
home
and
there
are
children
there,
then
they
get
moved
into
DCF,
and
so
we
use
funds
to
provide
for
Clearwater
residents
up
to
four
thousand
dollars
worth
of
funding.
For
that
we
also
do
career
development
and
then
the
biggest
thing
is
our
youth
development
program
where
we
serve
a
hundred
twenty
kids
all
year
during
the
after-school
program
and
then
a
summer
camp
program,
we
started
a
program
in
Eisenhower
a
year
ago.
L
The
problem
we
had
was
the
kids
had
no
way
to
get
home.
The
buses
school
buses
were
done
right.
They
don't
stay
and
and
take
them
home
after
school,
so
they
wouldn't
stay
for
the
extra
services
that
they
needed.
The
tutoring,
like
we
do
up
in
in
those
morrow
at
our
Center
and
so
juvenile
Welfare
Board,
provided
a
grant
so
we're
giving
another
month
will
have
us
29
passenger
bus.
Last
summer
we
had,
we
took
our
van.
L
So
that's
where
we
are
in
a
nutshell:
we
have
to
raise
a
significant
amount
of
money
about
40
percent
of
our
funding
from
outside
sources.
We
do
get
funding
from
the
city
of
safety
of
our
and
from
the
city
of
Oldsmar,
and
much
of
that
funding
is
intended
for
their
residents.
As
you
all
know,
that's
how
that
all
works,
so
I
tried
a
piecemeal
everything
together.
So
we've
been
very
grateful
for
the
funding
you've.
Given
us.
L
This
allowed
us
to
be
able
to
provide
services
to
Clearwater
residents
and
I
want
to
thank
you
personally
for
your
service
as
a
former
city
board
member
and
also
a
commissioner
I
realize
how
much
time
you
all
spent
so
I.
Thank
you
for
doing
this.
We
really
appreciate
it
Thanks.
If
you
have
any
questions
on
what.
L
I
B
M
Hello,
I'm
terrorist
Elise
I'm,
our
chief
administrative
officer
at
directions
for
living.
Thank
you
for
having
us
here
today.
The
first
thing
we
would
like
to
present
on
is
for
an
upgrade
to
our
facilities.
Sure
Scalise
SCAL
is
a
you're
welcome.
So
the
first
thing
we're
asking
for
is
to
upgrade
eight
of
our
bathroom
facilities.
We
are
headquartered
in
Clearwater
Florida
right
here
and
have
been
providing
services
since
1982.
M
We
offer
services
in
four
distinct
areas:
Child
Safety,
family
preservation,
children
and
adult
behavioral
services
and
prevention,
wellness
and
recovery.
We
take
all
of
those
high
risk
cases,
and
you
know
we
don't
shy
away
from
those
high
risk
cases,
because
we
want
to
serve
those
who
need
us.
The
most
we
use
trauma-informed
care
as
the
cornerstone
of
what
we
do
if
left
untreated
trauma,
can
have
a
huge
impact
on
families
for
generations,
perpetuating
the
cycles
of
abuse
in
trauma
to
the
next
generation.
So
we
want
to
get
ahead
of
that
and
in
resolve
those
traumas.
M
M
This
is
right
here
in
Clearwater,
where
we
serve
not
only
clients
but
also
our
corporate
headquarters,
where
we
have
a
lot
of
employees
housed
out
of
there
as
well.
What
we're
asking
for
for
this
project
is
fifty
two
thousand
nine
hundred
and
forty
dollars.
You
have
no
idea
how
much
this
will
help.
You
know
with
the
clients
that
we
serve
to
have
an
you
know
place
to
go
into
as
well
as
for
our
employees.
M
E
M
Right
great,
so,
the
next
project
that
we're
looking
for
is
still
in
the
Clearwater
area
and
the
the
same
services
that
we
do
provide,
but
we're
looking
for
support
with
our
homeless
case
management
from
a
public
service
standpoint
where
we're
providing
case
management
support
for
Pinellas
hold
right.
Now
we
have
a
position,
that's
already
in
place.
It
was
originally
created
years
ago
to
help
with
an
influx
of
people
in
the
Pinellas
Hope
area,
who
had
mental
health
issues.
M
E
E
N
Our
first
proposal,
our
first
proposal,
is
for
the
renovations
to
our
Haven
RCS,
serves
over
a
hundred
thousand
residents
in
Pinellas
County
through
our
five
programs.
That
would
be
the
food
bank,
our
basic
news
program,
our
grace
house,
Family
Shelter,
and
the
Haven
of
RCS
domestic
violence
program.
Our
funding
request
is
for
forty
nine
thousand
six
hundred
dollars
to
renovate
and
improve
the
parents
and
the
safety
of
our
Haven,
our
safe
house
and
our
youth
buildings.
N
Also,
that
would
also
be
included
in
that
and
that
cost
would
be
to
purchase
a
shade
structure
for
the
playground,
because
how
the
playground
is
situated.
Of
course,
no
shade,
which
means
Sun
is
pretty
much
coming
down
on
the
children.
There
are
four
trees
that
kind
of
are
on
the
outskirts
of
the
playground,
so
we
would
need
to
have
those
removed,
so
we
can
put
the
shade
structure
on
over
the
playground
and
also
the
fencing.
That's
pretty
much.
That's
the
most
important
thing
right
now.
N
If
you
see
the
pictures
of
the
fencing,
it's
pretty
dilapidated
poor
condition,
you
can
pretty
much
see
the
residents
our
resident
guests
through
the
slats
of
the
fences,
and
this
is
supposed
to
be
a
safe
house
for
domestic
violence
victims.
So
we
want
to
protect
them
at
all
costs.
So
for
us
this
is
the
paintings
and
all
the
different
things
that
we
are,
including
us
not
only
be
to
enhance
the
safety
of
those
residents,
but
also
different
health
issues.
N
N
Second,
our
second
proposal
is
for
salary
support
of
an
advocate
at
ours,
saving
our
safe
house
at
the
Haven
before
I
get
into
that.
If
I
may,
there
was
a
slight
correction,
not
so
much
in
the
what
we
are
proposing,
but
in
our
budget
narratives
we
had
a
total
operating
budget,
I
believe
a
600,000
in
the
narrative
and
it's
actually
1.1
million.
N
So
what
I'm
proposing
of
22500
$500
$550
is
actually
a
little
less
than
2%
of
the
total
budget,
and
what
this
salary
is
going
to
do
is
support
one
of
our
advocates
partially
about
50%
of
our
salary.
The
duties
of
the
Advocate
are
normally
is
basically
case
management
and
what
these
advocates
do.
Is
they
pretty
much
help
these
women
who
are
affected
by
domestic
violence,
basically
get
back
to
self-sufficiency
or
get
some
get
to
self-sufficiency,
so
they
won't
have
to
depend
on
their
abuser.
So
those
things
are
resource
connections,
safety
planning.
N
O
So
good
morning
my
name
is
Jacqueline
and
I
am
the
CEO
of
intercultural
advocacy
Institute
and
we
operate
the
Hispanic
outreach
center
of
Pinellas
County.
Our
headquarters
are
here
in
Clearwater
and
we
are
asking
for
the
25-thousand
dollars
to
support
our
youth
leadership
program,
and
this
program
brings
middle
and
high
school
students
together
every
other
week
with
their
parents
to
build
skills
and
resilience
that
the
students
and
the
families
need
to
succeed
in
school
and
prepare
for
post-secondary
education.
O
We
specifically
developed
this
program
to
serve
Hispanic
families
living
in
Clearwater,
with
the
support
of
jwb
and
the
CDBG
grant
since
2012,
and
we
continue
to
work
closely
with
the
city
of
Clearwater
and
we're
working
closely
with
Ross
Norton
rec
center
in
the
Lake
Bellevue
and
RSA
to
pervert
to
further
serve
our
families
and
provide
additional
space
for
programming.
This
25,000
will
support
the
social
worker
and
support
staff
who
operate
the
family
component
of
our
program.
Last
year.
O
O
So
since
2012
families
have
gained
empowerment,
skills
and
taken
a
more
active
role
in
their
community,
they're
going
to
libraries
went
to
parks,
and
even
volunteering
in
our
community
and
we've
found
that,
through
allowing
the
students
and
the
families
to
lead
and
take
a
more
active
role
in
those
activities
has
had
much
more
of
an
impact.
So
a
key
student
who
has
been
involved
with
Yop
and
in
these
activities
is
here
with
us
today
and
her
family
as
well
in
the
audience
to
support
her
Alma's.
O
D
Grandfather
promised
my
mom
that
after
she
finished
middle
school,
she
would
be
able
to
go
to
high
school.
However,
he
forced
her
to
work
in
fields
for
the
money
and
they
stopped
studying
after
middle
school.
My
mom
also
wasn't
comfortable
where
she
left,
because
she
would
see
her
get
mom
get
be
in
and
disrespected,
therefore,
my
mom
decided
she
wanted
her
children
have
a
better
future
and
have
a
safe
home.
However,
my
mom
struggled
what
she
came
here
because
of
immigration
status.
She
isolated
us
something
wasn't
part
of
the
community.
This
all
changed.
D
When
I
started
attending
this
program,
we
became
more
involved
in
the
community
and
met
more
people
that
had
a
positive
impact
on
our
lives.
My
dad
recently
had
a
work
incident
where
he
broke
both
of
his
wrists.
My
parents
went
through
a
financial
crisis
and
didn't
know
how
to
pay
for
the
necessities.
This
program
helped
us
through
law,
guidance,
finding
resources
and
providing
us
with
the
basic
needs.
It
helped
us
to
stay
confident
and
to
get
through
the
situation
and
make
us
feel
like
we're,
not
lonely
in
this
world.
D
This
helped
me
to
worry
less
and
I
continued
to
focus
on
school,
because
I
knew
my
family
was
in
good
hands.
This
program
allows
students
to
do
good
in
school
and
go
to
college.
This
program
helped
me
apply
for
the
take
stock
in
children,
scholarship
which
I
received.
They
also
helped
my
parents
to
understand
their
portraits
of
taking
advanced
class
and
attending
a
magnet
program
for
high
school
I
will
proudly
be
attending
the
IB
program
at
Largo
high
school
because
of
their
help.
D
I'm
an
eighth
grader
taking
ninth
grade
math
science
and
English
attending
this
program
allowed
my
family
to
interact
more
in
activities
and
spend
more
family
time.
There's
this
one
activity
where
we
did
a
scavenger
hunt
where
we
were
given
an
amount
of
time
to
find
something
and
bring
it
to
lis
later
my
parents
and
I
learned
to
work
together,
and
it
brought
us
closer.
This
activity
taught
me
that
we
don't
have
to
fight
just
to
get
something
that
the
Youth
Leadership
Partnership
Program,
has
been
crucial
to
allowing
me
to
be
successful
in
school.
O
Almost
stories
helped
you
to
understand
the
importance
of
our
program
and
how
we
are
changing
lives
here
in
Clearwater,
for
the
better
day
by
day
student
by
student
and
family
by
family.
We
hope
that
you
will
help
us
and
allow
us
to
continue
just
show
you
stories
like
almost
in
the
years
to
come.
Do
you.
O
C
Well,
first
of
all,
I
wanted
to
thank
on
impact
the
city
of
Clearwater
for
the
support
we've
been
receiving
for
the
last
couple
of
years.
Hospitai
wants
to
continue
helping
Hispanic
with
our
support,
not
expertise.
We
want
to
continue
helping
Hispanic
entrepreneurs
and
with
those
who
already
have
or
looking
to
open
new
businesses
in
the
area
of
Clearwater.
C
As
you
know,
what
our
services
continue
to
be
free,
those
are
through
education,
we
do
consultations,
workshops
and
we
offer
grants
business
friends
we
we
wanted.
We
want
to
continue
offering
the
same
number
of
workshops
that
we've
been
offering.
You
want
to
continue
offering
the
same
number
of
grants.
We've
been
noting,
there's
only
one
little
change
that
we're
suggesting
is
that
we've
been
offering
a
number
of
consultations,
one-on-one
consultations.
We
noticed
that
we
might.
We
think
it's
a
good
idea
to.
C
Instead
of
reducing
just
a
little
bit
number
of
consultations,
we
want
to
offer
a
a
two
day
bootcamp
for
for
businesses.
What
we
want
to
do
in
this
boot
camp.
What
we
found
is
businesses,
usually
when
it
come
they're,
basically
asking
for
two
things:
you
want
more
money
or
any
money
or
they
need
more
clients.
We
think
that
happen
with
this
boot
camp,
we'll
be
able
to
focus
on
certain
clients
that
will
we'll
be
able
to
benefit
with
this.
C
C
You
know,
although
last
year
we
we
already
honored,
we
have
an
event.
Every
year,
success
stories,
lunch
or
we
honored
certain
businesses
that
have
been
successful
have
been
able
to
create
jobs
than
that
with
our
help
have
been
able
to
to
accomplish
this.
Last
year
we
already
recognized
a
Clearwater
business,
and
hopefully,
with
this
boot
camp,
we'll
be
able
to
increase
the
number
of
and
be
able
to
help
more
businesses.
C
G
Good
morning
whoops,
my
name
is
Kate
Kelly
kely
and
named
the
CEO
of
Kimberly
Holman
Pregnancy
Resource
Center,
located
right
here
in
Clearwater
can
release
just
sell
company
home
just
celebrated
its
36th
anniversary,
and
we
are
I've
been
in
the
location
where
we
are
now
at
the
corner
of
do
Street
and
Missouri.
That
kind
of
odd
intersection
or
northeast
Cleveland
comes
in
since
1996.
G
So
since
arriving
there
with
the
help
of
the
city,
we've
been
able
to
expand
our
campus
to
include
not
just
the
center,
but
also
we
added
a
childcare
center
back
in
early
2000
and
we've
been
slowly
acquiring
houses
around
our
campus
for
the
purpose
of
housing,
moms
who
would
otherwise
be
homeless.
We
have
currently
six
homes
that
are
active
right
now
and
we
have
one
who
that
we
recently
received,
but
it's
awaiting
funding
for
renovation
when
completed,
we
would
have
16
beds
for
those
moms.
G
It's
a
small
portion
of
the
number
of
women
we
actually
serve.
We
serve
over
700
women
plus
their
children
in
a
year's
time.
I
am
here
today
to
to
ask
for
the
residential
advisor
position.
It's
a
$25,000
request
and
that
position
would
be
for
well.
What
we've
discovered
is
we
really
need
to
have
somebody
living
on
campus
24/7,
it's
vital
to
our
program
for
the
safety
of
the
moms
for
the
security
we
actually
just
should
we
call
her
house
mom
she's,
the
house
mom
to
those
moms.
G
They
need
to
have
someone
there
at
any
time
any
given
time
I
mean
we
because
we're
not
a
gated
facility.
There's
always
the
chance
of
somebody
coming
through
there
at
night
or
babies.
Happen
tend
to
be
born
in
the
night.
So
it's
you
know
it's
good
to
have
somebody.
They
know
and
trust
with
them
at
that
time,
she's
also
there
to
teach
them
how
to
care
for
their
home
and
how
to
care
for
the
surrounding
grounds.
G
We
take
great
pride
in
having
the
girls
take
pride
in
their
sermon
and
the
campus
that
they're
living
on
as
well
as
Clearwater
in
general.
As
you
probably
know,
we
we
do
in
addition,
provide
pregnancy
testing
and
ultrasounds
and
counseling.
We
also
provide
education
to
the
moms,
so
that's
all
available
to
the
residents
they're
able
to
attend
all
of
our
classes.
H
G
A
G
B
G
P
I'm
worried
I'm,
Michelle
Walker.
First
of
all,
I'd
like
to
say
thank
you
for
you
all
the
opportunity
to
come
before
you
this
morning
to
just
share
about
miracles,
outreach
in
our
program-
and
we
have
been
around
here
in
Clearwater
community
for
at
least
the
last
seven
years.
We
primarily
serve
youth
that
are
in
foster
care
system,
ages,
12
to
17
in
a
residential
setting,
and
this
particular
grant.
P
We
were
asking
for
the
$25,000
to
provide
us
with
a
part-time
case
manager
to
continue
to
do
our
pre
diversion
program
and
that's
really
working
with
our
use
that
on
foster
care
preparing
them
before
they
age
out
to
live
on
their
own
and
with
the
overall
goal
of
helping
them
not
end
up
homeless
and
working
with
those
families
to
make
sure
they
have
the
skills
that
they
need.
So
that's
really
what
our
request
was
for
this
is
Sawyer
Jordan
operations
manager
and
should
go
what
the
rest
of
the
program
is
good.
Q
Morning,
our
prevention
end,
diversions,
I'm,
sorry,
Sonja,
Jordan,
Jo
Rd
is
our
prevention
and
diversion
program.
It's
actually
been
around
for
about
nine
years.
We've
worked
with
homeless,
youth
foster
care,
youth.
We
also
service,
CSEC
or
sexually
exploited
youth
as
well.
So
the
goal
of
our
program
is
to
work
with
them
to
develop
life,
skills
and
social
skills,
focusing
on
career
choices,
positive
and
healthy
choices.
Q
As
far
as
relationships
dealing
with
financial
literacy,
our
core
values
of
our
program,
our
focus
on
really
integrity,
teamwork
and
respect
that
you've
come
and
they
meet
once
a
week
they
meet
with
the
facilitator
will
have
different
people
come
in.
Our
different
speakers
will
come
in
and
talk
with
you,
we
utilize
mentors
from
different
areas
of
life
that
will
come
in
speak
to
the
youth
as
well
as
give
them
an
idea
of.
Q
Maybe
it
may
be
someone
coming
in
like
say
a
judge
or
if
they
wanna
be
in
the
legal
field
they
wanted
in
a
certain
field.
We
try
to
seek
out
people
that
can
come
in
and
help
in
that
way.
We
also
utilize
college
interns
as
well,
and
volunteers
is
a
big
piece
of
our
program.
We
want
to
have
a
part-time
case
manager
to
be
able
to
come
in
and
meet
with
the
youth
at
least
twice
a
week.
