"Out of the amounts for Financial Assistance for Cultural and Artistic Affairs, $40,000 the second year from the general fund is provided to the Jewish Social Service Agency."


Explanation
(This amendment provides $40,000 from the general fund in the second to the Jewish Social Service Agency for case management software and computer hardware. The Jewish Social Service Agency provides numerous direct care services to senior citizens in Fairfax County, including comprehensive geriatric assessments, home delivered meals, and escorted rides to medical appointments. The case management software and computer hardware support by this amendment will allow the agency's social work staff to devote more time to individualized case care rather than paperwork.)
