Funding recommendations are consistent with the City's adopted funding priorities` The priorities are the following: Priority#3: Services w11 hich meet basic and emergency 111 needs (food,11:1medical care; shelter; protection from abuse and neglect). Priority#2: Programs which are preventative in nature and promote a high degree of selfi dependence.

This agency was de-funded by` the City in the past. The 11 Commission met with the new Executive Director and Board President'and because we were impressed by the progress made in their effort to rebuild community trust in DAWN, we. allocated the $5,000 minimum award that can be made to a program. DAWN'S funding will be i contingent upon their ability to satisfactorily meet performance measures agreed upon by staff'' The funding is strictly`for the confidential shelter, which we believe is an incredibly important. resource for our resitlents.

This will reduce the number of contracts, increasing' efficiency for both Human Services staff and agency staff. For example, Catholic 11 Community Services currently has three separate contracts with the City. In their 2003 application, all three programs were rolled into one application for"Family Stabilization" While the Commission is open to funding agencies not previously funded by the City of Kent, no new agencies were funded for 2003. Competition for funding was; unusually tough due to the limited amount of funds available and the current crisis in human services funding that continues to impact so many of our agencies. Five agencies that had not previously been funded by the City applied and did not receive an allocation. Attachment cc .. Myke Martin, thief Administra#ive officer ,. . Park Recreation &Communit .
