<br />- City Manager’s Report -
<br />
<br />Consent Agenda:
<br />
<br />26-43a:
<br />
<br />Adoption of an ordinance accepting Adult Services funding in the amount of $3,500
<br />from the Virginia Department of Social Services and appropriating said amount in
<br />the FY 2026 Social Services Fund for use by DSS.
<br />
<br />Background:
<br />
<br /> Adult services are provided to an adult with an impairment, as defined in §51.5-
<br />144 of the Code of Virginia, to assist the adult to remain in his or her own home and to be
<br />as independent as possible for as long as possible.
<br />
<br />Discussion:
<br />
<br /> The provision of adequate services decreases the risk of institutional placement,
<br />decreases overall costs for long-term care in the Commonwealth, and ensures that
<br />
<br />appropriate services are provided to maximize self-sufficiency.
<br />
<br /> Portsmouth Social Services has requested additional funding in the amount of
<br />$3,500 to provide services to those persons that meet eligibility requirements for the
<br />
<br />program.
<br />
<br /> The funds will be used for heavy home maintenance chores, purchase of
<br />homemaker services, guardianship support services, home based companion services,
<br />and emergency shelter.
