GUARDIANSHIP GRANTS SUMMARY
1998 Grants to Local Volunteer Guardianship Programs
In 1998, the Board advised HHSC to use $52,000 of its funding of $118,000 to
provide grants for the establishment and growth of local volunteer guardianship
programs. Local judges were informed about the availability of grants in the letter
that accompanied the Judicial Guardianship Survey. The availability of grants was
also published in the Texas Register, sent to existing local guardianship programs
and Area Agencies on Aging. HHSC issued a request for proposals in 1998 for
new guardianship or money management programs or for existing guardianship
programs that wished to expand to serve nearby counties or to serve additional
populations of incapacitated individuals. In response to the seven proposals
received, HHSC issued grants in 1998. Detailed information describing each
program is found in Appendix G. The 1998 grants were distributed as
follows:
COUNTIES GRANT AMOUNT
Williamson $15,000
Tarrant $15,000
Dallas $8,700
Lubbock, Hockley and Dickens $6,650
Webb and Zapata $6,650
1998 Total $52,000
1999 Grants to Local Volunteer Guardianship Programs.
In 1999, the Board advised HHSC to use $60,000 of its annual budget of about
$135,000 to provide grants to local volunteer guardianship programs. HHSC
issued a request for proposals, and received ten proposals. The quality of the
proposals was so good that HHSC was able to add an additional $30,000 from
other funds to fund a total of seven proposals. Appendix H contains a detailed
discussion of these grants. In 1999, HHSC distributed $90,000 in grants to the
following counties and programs. The 1999 grants were distributed as follows:
