Explanation
(This amendment provides $165,000 the second year from the general fund to the Brain Injury Resource & Development Center, Inc. (BIRD-C). The center operates the Phoenix Star Clubhouse, a program for individuals with brain injuries. It is considered a core service under the State Action Plan for services for Virginians with brain injuries. The start-up funds for the clubhouse originated with a grant from the CNI Trust Fund which is due to expire June 30, 2009. Funding is needed to continue this important service.)
