Changes in Children and Youth Investment Collaborative, Revised FY 2010 Budget (Publication date: 7/21/09)

Changes in the budget chapter (E-125) The “Gap-Closing Initiatives” are: • Cap rate at 5% for indirect cost allocation in awards to grantees: The current RFP allows that 10% of the grant amount be charged to indirect costs. This change saves $456,000. • Reduce Local funds to account for CYITC receipt of funds from tax check-off for prevention programs for at-risk youth: The Department of Parks and Recreation transferred $342,000 in early March 2009 to CYITC. This transfer allows the District to reduce Local funds but maintain services. • Eliminate/reduce designated grants: The reduction results in a savings of $2.5 million; reductions are made in one-time funding detailed in the BSA and additional designated grants listed in Table 4 of the budget. The result of the reductions is that the FY 2010 proposed funding for CYITC, via the Children and Youth Investment Collaborative, is $10,360,000. The starting budget was $13,615,000 less $3,255,000.
