Explanation
(This amendment provides $50,000 the first year from the general fund to the C. Waldo Scott Center for H.O.P.E.. The requested funds would be used to expand its after-school, Saturday and summer programs. The Scott Center serves an average of 200-250 youth per year through various programs/services. Requested funding would allow the Scott Center to increase the number of youth served by 50 percent (300-375), providing quality services. Funding would also allow for the Scott Center to continue to offer programs/services free or at a minimal fee, recognizing limited economic resources of families served.)
