Any member who violates this provision may be subject to removal from the board. If the board believes he/she bas a conflict of interest, then the member should ask the board to be excused from voting. The board should then vote on the question on whether or not to excuse the member making the request. In cases where the individual member or the board establishes a conflict of interest, then the board member shall remove themselves from the voting area. Any board member may seek the counsel of the Town Attorney on questions regarding the int.erp:retatl.on of these ethic guidelines or other conflict of interest matters. The interpretation may include a recommendation on whether or not the board should excuse himself/herself from voting. The board may request the Town Attorney to respond in writing.

We ask for assistance in developing infrastructure and providing broadband to underserved areas within the county, either through legislation or funding. Harnett County completed a Broadband Survey in 2019 and hopes to use the data to encourage providers to expand service within the county. We ask for continued support in assistance as we work to expand access to Broadband for our residents . Assist Counties in Educating Military-Connected Students by fully funding the Federal Impact Aid Program (Federal) The Federal Impact Aid Program reimburses school districts for the loss of local tax revenue due to the presence of the Federal Government. The program is administered by the U.S. Department of Education and funding is approved each year by Congress through the Labor, Health and Human Services, Education Appropriations Subcommittee bill. Because the Impact Aid Program is not fully funded (and hasn't been since 1969), available funds are distributed using a needs-based funding formula, which results in Harnett County Schools receiving less funding per student than surrounding counties. In 2017, Harnett County Schools received $750,533 in Impact Aid Funding in 2017, but would have received $4,271,484 had the program been fully funded, a difference of $3,520,921. We request that Congress fully fund the Impact Aid Program to fully address the impact of military-connected students to local school systems. Support County Efforts to Expand Natural Gas Capacity (State) Access to natural gas is a basic requirement for many industries and businesses looking for sites to locate new facilities. Despite population growth in portions of Harnett County, a lack of access to natural gas has prevented the commercial and industrial growth that would normally accompany this growth. We ask for assistance in identifying ways to expand natural gas capacity throughout the county through public-private partnerships. Allow Counties to Enact Impact Fees to Support Public Education (State) Harnett County is among the fastest growing counties in North Carolina, and with that growth comes additional demand for public services. The County's median home value in 2017 was $144,700, which does not generate enough tax revenue to pay for the services the home's occupants will need. At present, approximately 3,700 new homes are at some stage of development in Northwest Harnett County, which will create a significant burden on our school system . We request legislation that would allow the County to enact a fee on new development to assist in funding public education in the county. Give School Systems Flexibility in Establishing their K-12 Calendars (State) Allowing flexibility in establishing their K-12 calendars would give school systems the ability to align the K-12 calendar with local community colleges, which would allow for more opportunities for high school students to take advantage of opportunities for higher education. 012120a HCBOC Page 34 Grant County Boards of Commissioners the Ability to Construct Schools (State) The Harnett County Board of Commissioners asks for the authority to construct schools, to allow the County strategically plan for growth and to reduce existing and future issues with school overcrowding. Provide Funding to Help Counties Implement School Security Measures (State/Federal) Few schools across the state were built with modern security needs in mind. The cost to modify schools to address present-day threats is substantial. Harnett County Emergency Services has surveyed each of the County's schools and presented recommendations for safety priorities. Harnett County Schools included nearly $2.5 million for school security measures in their FY 2020 budget request. We ask for additional funding to help make our schools safer places for teachers to teach and students to l earn . Support the County's efforts to Enhance the Harnett Regional Jetport (State) Harnett Regional Jetport is an economic engine for Harnett County. Over the past decade, the County has rehabilitated runways and taxiways, improved the apron, taxiways and runways to accommodate larger aircraft to expand the airport's aviation and economic capabilities . Harnett County is preparing to make additional investments into the jetport in the form of an additional and improved lighting, apron expansion and a badly needed new terminal and site improvements. We ask for any assistance that may be available to offset these costs or to make additional enhancements in the future. Address Issues with Motor Vehicle Gap Billing (State) The Tax & Tag Together program dramatically increased counties' collection rates on motor vehicle property taxes, however drivers who are delinquent on their taxes are allowed to begin their new registration period upon payment, creating a gap between the initial expiration date and the new start date. County tax offices may bill for this gap, however it creates confusion for taxpayers and can be difficult to collect. The result is lost revenue for county governments. The Harnett County Tax Office requests requiring the new registration period to begin when the previous one ended, or finding another solution that will allow for the inclusion of this gap period within the Tax & Tag Together program to increase collections. (In 2018, the Tax Office sent out 1,685 gap bills, with 916 of those tax bills requiring force collection . The total taxes owed for the gap bills was $53,630.88 with an unpaid total of $39,074.96.) Continue Support of Construction of Four Lane Highway into Wake County (State) Harnett County does not currently have a four-lane highway into Wake County, which i s a sign ificant barrier to growth and economic development. U.S. 401 is a natural candidate to be widened to four lanes. The County has worked to find ways to fund this project through NCDOT and our various planning organizations with little success, and asks for any additional assistance that may be available . Preserve Funding for Local Health Departments (State) Over the last several years, county health departments have seen funding reductions from the state, which ha s made operation more difficult. We reque st preservation of funding levels for county departments of public health . 012120a HCBOC Page 35 lower NCDOT Road Takeover Threshold to 75 percent Buildout (State) When a property is developed into a subdivision, the County requires the developer to build the roads to NCDOT specifications with the intent that NCDOT will assume maintenance of the roads soon after most of the building is done. As it stands, NCDOT requires that 75 percent of homes in a subdivision be occupied before the developer can petition to have the roads taken over. This sometimes results in the developer pulling out of the project before the roads can be taken over, which creates issues for homeowners in the subdivision. Harnett County currently has at least 30 subdivisions that would have been in better situations if the NCDOT takeover threshold were changed to 75 percent buildout. Allow Counties to use E-911 Funds for E-911 Needs Other than Equipment (State) Harnett County currently has E-911 funds, which can only be used to purchase equipment, however the county has fulfilled all existing equipment needs. Harnett County asks for the flexibility to use leftover E- 911 funds for equipment, personnel, training and anything that has to do with taking the 911 call to communicating the call information to public safety officials. (For example: Dispatch hits a button to send a page signal to the radio towers and then equipment in the towers send the page signal to personnel to respond . Presently, 911 funds cover the "button," but not the equipment in the tower.) Provide local Governments with Liaison for Utilities Providers (State) There are times when County and municipal governments have had issues that required immediate assistance from some of our utility providers and have had difficulty getting a prompt response. This has negatively affected local businesses and residents. We request assistance, potentially in the form of a liaison who could assist local governments in working with these providers to address emergency issues as quickly as possible. Reinstate Funding for Drug Treatment Courts and Mental Health Courts (State) Harnett County has seen tremendous success from its Veterans Treatment Court. We believe similar success could be experienced by other residents who may have served our nation's military. We request legislation to reinstate funding for Drug Treatment Courts and Mental Health Courts. Enhance Funding of Water and Wastewater Extensions for Counties to Increase Available, Marketable Product for Existing Industry (State) Access to County Water and Wastewater is important for Economic Development, particularly in the County's unincorporated areas. Extending these utilities to properties the County has identified for potential development opportunities can be cost prohibitive, particularly when the revenue generated from these projects will not be realized until years later. We seek assistance in accessing funding that will allow Harnett County to take a more proactive approach to this type of development. Support Legislation Related to Assisting Firefighters who Contract Disease Related to Service (State) House Bill 466 (Firefighters' Line of Duty Diseases/Funds) would expand the list of cancers covered as occupational diseases for firefighter's death benefits and appropriate funds to cover the additional death benefits. House Bill 520 (Firefighters Fighting Cancer Act) expands the types of cancers that are considered occupational diseases for firefighters and covered by worker compensation act. 012120a HCBOC Page 36 Expand Fire Prevention Grant Opportunities to include County Fire Marshals Offices (State/Federal} Currently, Office of State Fire Marshals and Federal grant opportunities for fire prevention programs are available to fire departments, departments that provide rescue services and local law enforcement agencies. The expansion of the grants program to include local fire marshals offices would allow for additional prevention programs to provide smoke detector installation in rural low income areas, purchase fire safety trailers/equipment and holding community-related fire prevention programs. Require Licensing and Permitting for Fire Extinguisher and Fire Suppression System Installation (State) Senate Bill 519 would require licensing and permitting for individuals and firms that install and service portable fire extinguishers and fire suppression systems . Require Accurate County Assignment of Sales Tax for Delivered Goods (State) Harnett County loses sales tax revenue due to vendors not properly designated the county location for delivery of goods due to the significant portion of the County with zip codes which are shared with surrounding counties. The use of the five-digit zip code instead of the nine-digit zip code sometimes results with the wrong county being credited for taxes when the delivery destination is in Harnett County. This is particularly important when it comes to building materials being delivered to site for new construction and residents using on line shopping. Harnett County is working to educate homebuilders and residents about this problem, we seek State assistance, which could include requiring vendors to use a central database maintained by the State, requiring use of the nine-digit zip code for reporting, or developing a statewide addressing database. Removed Priorities Assist Counties with Efforts to Install Additional Gauges on Rivers and Waterways (State) Assist Counties in the Cleanup of Rivers and Waterways (State) Assist Counties with Storm Mitigation Planning and Implementation (State/Federal) Authorize Use of Recreation Fees for Construction (State) Assist Harnett County in Funding its Veterans Treatment Court Program (State/Federal) Restore State Aid Funding of Public Libraries to Pre-2011 Levels (State) Support County's Efforts to Correct Boundary Issues (State) 012120a HCBOC Page 37 APPLICATION PUBLIC SCHOOL BUILDING CAPITAL FUND NORTH CAROLINA EDUCATION LOTTERY County: .:..H~ac.!.!rn~·e~tt~---------- LEA: __ 4~3~0'-----------~ Address: 1008 S. 11th St. Lillington, NC 27546 Agenda Item 8 _ ___;=---- App rov, Date: Contact Person : Dr. Aaron Fleming Title: Superintendent Phone :. ___ _..::9:..!.1.,._0-_,,8-"<C93~-.:oc8..!.;15"-1,__ ____ _ Project Title: Land acquisition for North West area elementary school Location : North West Harnett County Type of Facility: K-5 Elementary School North Carolina General Statutes , Chapter 18C, provides that a portion of the proceeds of the North Carolina State Lottery Fund be transferred to the Public School Building Capital Fund in accordance with G.S. 115C-546.2.

HARNETT COUNTY CENTER NC Cooperative Extension Program Report January 10 , 2020 Tim Mathews -County Extension Director As I look back on 2019 , it is hard to believe that I have been here for almost a year. I continue to be thankful that I have been given the opportunity to work with such a dedicated and hard working staff. The folks that work here exemplify the meaning of "teamwork." Over the past year, our team has made significant impacts on the lives of Harnett County Citizens. Some of the highlights include : Contacts Direct: 14 ,259 Indirect: 199,360 Educational Programs Participants: 3404 Contact Hours : 986 Volunteer Activity Number of Volunteers : 714 Total Hours Worked : 15 ,707 Dollar Value@ $25.43 : $399,429 .01 1 012120a HCBOC Page 67 Fiscal Resources Obtained Contracts/Grants: $163 ,395 User Fees : $8,694.39 Gifts/Donations : $13 ,920 Total: $186,009.39 As we move into 2020 , we look to build on the success that we have had in the past and to look for additional opportunities to serve Harnett County . We have expanded our County Advisory Council and look forward to working with them to identify and meet the needs or our clientele . As a staff, we have set a goal to improve our communications both internally and externally and to better market our programs throughout the county. We encourage you to stay informed by following us on Facebook and regularly visiting our website . If you have questions or ideas for future programs , please feel free to contact me or one of our staff members. Jackie Helton, Alia Langdon & Phillip Stewart 4-H Youth Development Harnett County 4-H is excited to announce that Phillip Stewart has been hired as our new 4-H Program Assistant. Phillip is a Harnett County 4-H Alum of the "Save the Seed 4-H Club". He has also served as a Camp Counselor at Millstone 4-H Camp for seven summers. He is filling the position vacated by Courtney Stanley who took the Johnston County 4-H Agent position. We know Phillip will do amazing things in 4-H here in Harnett County. His major responsibilities will be leading our 4-H Club program. His background as a 4-H Club member makes this a perfect fit. If you need to reach him , his email is psstewart@harnett.org and his phone number is 910-814-6026. If you are in the office, please stop by and say hello. Jackie Helton and Brian Parrish was asked to allow a NC State film crew to come and film our annual 4-H Sweetpotato Gleaning so we could help other counties across North Carolina to learn how to plan and implement a successful gleaning . The NC State Local Food Planning Team paid $1 ,000 to have the video produced. The final version has not been released but you can view the video by visiting https:/ /youtu . be/si 1 XsuRhmZA. Harnett County 4-H and FCS Agent Greg Huneycutt joined state staff from NC State University and NC A& T State University to start the development of a new 4-H Food Competition based on the Farm to Fork Camp program we offer in our county. We are working to have this new state 4-H Food Competition up and running by 2021. Greg and Jackie will be joined by staff from both universities on two trips to 2 012120a HCBOC Page 68 Texas to learn how they have implemented a similar program at the district and state levels. Farm Bureau gave $500 to Harnett County 4-H for a new chicken incubator system to help ensure we have the best fertilized chicken embryos for our 4-H embryology program . Harnett County 4-H served 81 classrooms in Harnett County in 2019 and these funds will ensure we can reach that many or more classrooms in 2020. Selena McKoy -Commercial and Consumer Horticulture December Contacts-commercial + consumer: 95 ; mass media , including radio + newspaper: 19096 In December, we were teased with the start of a very mild winter. It will be interesting to see how the weather does this winter and how it may affect perennials such as fruit trees , fruit shrubs , and ornamentals. If the weather stays too warm we run into the risk of fruit, flower, blossom , and tissue damage or loss when the weather does take a turn for cooler temperatures. December also kicked off our planning and training season. This year I plan to offer pruning demonstrations, gardening classes , and a continuation of the New Farmer Training series Brian and I started this fall. In January, I will be attending trainings and updates for small fruits , blueberries , and greenhouse-grown vegetables. These trainings are wonderful as they give us an update on the produce industry as a whole as well as a few ideas to bring down here to Harnett County. We also wrap up a productive year where on-farm consultations have led to an increase in best management practices, integrated pest management, and diversified operations, with some growers producing a combination of livestock , row crops , and produce . Dozens of farmers also diversified their operations by adding in industrial hemp, allowing Harnett County to become one of the top two producers of industrial hemp in the state . To further meet the needs of homeowners, the Horticulture program welcomed 10 new Extension Master Gardener Volunteers (EMGVs) who are dedicated to serving Harnett County residents and educating the public on home gardening best practices . Over the course of 2019 , nearly 40 EMGVs gave 2,536 hours valued at nearly $65 ,000. Here's to 2020! 3 012120a HCBOC Page 69 Brian Parrish -Agriculture When I look back at 2019, I would have to say that our Ag Program Team had an excellent year. Selena Mckoy and I provided assistance to nine Harnett County farmers with help writing , reviewing , and submitting grant applications . As a result , five Harnett County farmers were awarded grants totaling $30,050 . Selena and I were awarded grants totaling $50 ,595 including grants from ; The North Carolina Tobacco Trust Fund Commission ($32 ,500), NC State Ag Innovation Grant $16 ,250 , and NCDA Pesticide Container Recycling Program ($1 ,845). $80,645 is a big number. It will be interesting to see if our Ag Team can top this number in 2020? As we transition into a new year, we are looking forward to helping the farmers of Harnett County in 2020 and working on some exciting projects. Learn more » Greg Huneycutt -Foods and Nutrition December started off with the end to another great year for the Extension Community Association (ECA) with their "2019 Celebrating the Seasons of ECA Awards and Recognition Tea". This is an annual event to highlight all of the amazing volunteer work ECA does in the community . This year the theme was "Celebrating Seasons of ECA" and they decorated tables with the four different seasons . Throughout the seasons in 2019 ECA conducted programs and outreach in areas that included food and nutrition , youth development, faith-based services, community partners , as well as other Extension programs . Among the 34 ECA member they accounted for a total of 7419 volunteer hours and $11 ,106 in contributions in the community. It is a time of fellowship shared between members and their guest as they enjoy lunch and tea . We had the third session of the Around the World Cuisine 4-H Spin Club. 12 youth learned all about Germany and prepared three German recipes that included Bavarian Pretzels , German Cucumber Salad and Chicken Schnitzel. Our volunteer teaching the program lived in Germany for several years and was able to teach the youth lots about the culture , language , and fest that go on in Germany. She was even able to bring a dirndl dress and leather lederhosen (traditional German Fest attire) for the youth to try on. The program was a huge success. Participants and their parents reported they are incorporating many of these recipes in their cooking at home. We have our last two sessions for this program series in January which include Latin America and France . 4 012120a HCBOC Page 70 Kittrane Sanders -Community and Rural Development (CRD) November/December 2019 ended with training Extension agents from across the state on how to facilitate civil dialogue discussions. Civil dialogue involves creating a safe place for community members to assemble to discuss a challenging question . Cooperative Extension agents that are confronted with challenging questions in the areas of Family Consumer Science , Agriculture, Community Rural Development and 4-H are better prepared to deal with such questions. CRD provided a staff development workshop for the Harnett County Workforce Development Department. The workshop included , customer service , team building , workplace hospitality , and conflict resolution . To end the year, Harnett County hosted a train the trainer workshop to prepare communities for disaster recovery through education. Disasters are becoming more frequent and intense, and disproportionately affect vulnerable populations . As Extension , we are assisting these populations through education and planning . As a result of this training , Harnett County will be providing Ready Business education in 2020 .

Describe your agency's method and criteria for identifying poverty causes including how the agency collected and analyzed qualitative and quantitative data in identifying those causes. This is the third year of a three-year plan and services were prioritized based on the results of the Community Needs Assessment Questionnaire conducted in Johnston , Lee and Harnett Counties during the planning process in November 2017 . Of the 500 questionnaires distributed during the planning process , 282 were returned which represent a 56% return rate. The following areas of needs were identified : Affordable Housing, Employment, and Education received the highest priority with 106, 89, 65 respectively. A number of factors played a significant role in the ranking of the needs and concerns expressed by participants completing the survey . The rental cost of affordable standard housing is now approximately $650.00 -1150.00 and has contributed to many of our participants becoming a part of the homeless population. One systemic problem that accounted for this dilemma was the participants ' incomes did not increase to meet the need. Clients coming into the agency complete a "Tell me About Yourself' questionnaire which the STARS Counselors use to evaluate the participants ' needs. It provides guidance in helping participants learn how to develop strategies designed to build a new life . There has been a reduction of key support programs such as Medicaid , NC SNAP , Unemployment benefits , etc ., which has presented even more challenges that low- income individuals/families will have navigate through . Temporary employment agencies are the vehicles that companies use to secure workers and even they are experiencing Fisca l Yea r 2020-21 Comm unity Serv ices Block Grant App lica tion Page 13 of 45 'I 012120a HCBOC Page 88 Agency Name JLHC A, Inc. Planning Process Narrative (Continued) difficulties placing unemployed persons. This problem exists whether the candidates are highly qualified professionals or unskilled laborers , whic h creates another barrier for many participants who have a GED/ high school diploma or less. 4. Describe activities that your agency has undertaken to advocate for and empower low-income individuals and families to achieve economic independence and security. The agency prioritizes the implementation of programs that increase self-sufficiency in low-income people in Johnston , Lee and Harnett County. Securing funding to develop the capacity and effectiveness of our agency in areas such as affordable housing , employment opportunities , educational advancement, affordable daycare , financial literacy , foreclosu re preven tion , emergency assistance , homeownership , early childhood education does help empower low-income individuals and families. We wi ll continue to seek other funding opportunities and /or partnerships to help meet needs that have the ability. to empower the participants or help them avoid adverse situa tions that co uld disrupt their path to achievement. The problem of high rent coup led with high utility bills has created a dilemma that is impacting low-income people in the agency's service areas . Financial Literacy wo rkshops are conducted to help participants develop sk ills designed to educate them about the basic foundations of creating a monthly budget, preparing to save money , and securing future wea lth. Credit and Pre-Purchase Co unseling are key compo nents of Financial Literacy and enables participants to meet the criteria for low in terest rates and assistan ce from other funding streams. This gives the participants the chance to obtain low payments and to own a stake in their community. Partnering with local financial institutions to bring different practices of money management has proven successful. The STARS Counselors cond uct workshops on a variety of topics that address issues that STARS participants are facing. Top ics such as: Financia l Literacy, Income Ta x Prepa ration , Energy Conservation , Credit Counseling, Consumer Rights , Home Ownership/Renters Insurance, Nutrition, Job-Readiness Skill Building , Renter's Rights, Consumer Credi t Education and other topics that will help participants become better equipped to advocate for themselves an d their fam ilies . Intensive one-o n-one case management is an essential tool used to help participants reach self-sufficiency . Frequently, when the participants take an objective look at their situation , they can iden ti fy the ca use of the problem and can then take the steps necessary to correct and adopt strategies to move forward toward a successful resolution . Short and long range goals are set by the participants with guidance from their counselor and then prioritized to achieve measurable successes . Networking and collaboratio ns with other se rvice agencies , orga ni za tions , public and private sectors and faith-bksed programs are all st rategic components of affecting positive changes. When resources (manpower, financial, etc .) are combined , a greater number of low-income people are able to receive needed services. 5. Describe how your agency plans to make more effective use of, coordinate and form partnersh ips with other organizations and programs including: State welfare reform efforts; public and private resources; religious organizations, charitable groups, and community organizations.

Describe how your agency will establish linkages between governmental and other social services programs to assure the effective delivery of such services to low-income individuals, to avoid the duplication of such services and to fill identified gaps in services , through the provision of information, referrals, case management and follow-up consultations. Linkages are established between Johnston-Lee-Harnett Community Action, Inc., governmental programs , faith-based programs and other social services program through a variety of methods. Agency staff members serve on committees in other agencies and their staff members serve on committees in our agency. This relationship is on-going and prevents a duplication of services based on open communication between staff. When a client enters our agency with a request for services , a counselor will contact other agencies/organizations to see if they have already received assistance or if there are resou rces available to assist the household. Information on existing program is shared with clients and agencies/organizations and referrals are made to help expedite access to services . All staff members paid through CSBG funds are full time employees. Staff composition in Johnston County consists of a STARS Senior Counselor and one STARS Counselor. In Lee County , there is one STARS Senior Counselor and one STARS Counselor to provide services to low-income people. Harnett County staff includes a STARS Senior Counselor and one full time STARS Counselor. Info rmation that is presented at our Board of Directors and Policy Advisory Council meetings play a vital role in coordinating and establishing linkages between governmental and other social services programs in the delivery of services to low-income individuals. As the Board of Directors is a Tripartite board, its members include county commissioners , bankers , realtors , rep resentatives from legal services, local health department, department of social services, faith based organizations , senior services , teachers, division of emp lo yme nt services , head start policy co uncil , partnerships for children, civic groups, etc., Programming concerning the availability, delivery and quality of serv ices are always of the utmost importa nce and at the forefront of discussions between partners. The CSBG Director monitors the total CSBG Program (see organizational chart). Whe n a participant enters the STARS office, a counselor will interv iew them to assess their situation. The participant completes a 'Tell Me About You rself' questionnaire so the counselo r can determine the next course of action. The counselor completes an intake and that information is assessed to determine if the participant is eligible for enrollment into the STARS Program. The .file is then given to the Senior Co unselor who will review it to determine if it meets the eligibility guidelines and to assign the participant to a STARS Counselor. If the needs are for emergency food, a vouc her is issued on-si te and they are then referred to Social Services to apply for food stamps. If the need is for emergency shelter, etc. th e counselor will refer them to the appropriate resource in order to link needs with services . When needed , the counselor will facilitate the process through direct comm unication, coordination of services to help strengthen the link between the participant and service provider. When a client comes in with a crisis, an intake is completed by a counselor and if eligible , the participant is referred to the STARS Senio r Co unselor who reviews all applications to determine eligibility . The crisis is verified by contacting the vendor who can confirm the data shared by the applicant. The Se nior Counselor then searches for community resources or generates a voucher (i f funds are available) to meet the need. The Emergency Food and Shelter Program provided grants in Johnston , Lee and Harnett Counties to assist participants with utility bills and rental and /or mortgage payments . We share data on clients assisted through EFSP funding with other agencies who have the same funding in order to prevent duplication of services.

Some participants come to the agency seeking case managell)ent and others are referred from other organizations/agencies/faith-based groups. The STARS Counselors ' meet with their casemariagement participants at least once a month to evaluate and review their goals. Counselors work with participants as they move toward realizing their dreams and to help them rise above the poverty level. Group learning activities are offered to part icipants on topics that can help facilitate positive changes in their life. Some workshops offered are Job-Readiness, Financial Literacy , Income Tax Preparation, Consumer Education, Energy Conservation and Insurance (all types), etc. Following up on their activities and/or their concerns is a basic but essential part of the self-sufficiency experience. Our primary goal is to encourage the participants to adopt a more proactive approach to making life choices rat her than being reactive. 7. Provide a description of how your agency will support innovative community and neighborhood· based in itiatives related to the purposes of the Community Services Block Grant (fatherhood initiatives and other initiatives with the goal of strengthening families and encouraging effective parenting). Participants enrolled in the STARS Program with children enrolled in the Johnston-Lee-Harnett Head Start/ Early Head Start Program may participate in a variety of initiatives that can enrich their lives. They are encouraged to take advantage of programs being offered by the agency and other community or Human Services agencies , as they are made available. Johnston-Lee-Harnett Head Start offers the "I am moving .... I am learning" Initiative which is a practical approach to addressing childhood obesity in Head Start children. The program educates Head Start children and their families in a variety '6f methods on how to become more physically active and use these four basic components: Moving With the Brain in Mind, Body language, Nutrition Building Blocks and Resources for Family Meals to help them achieve and maintain a healthier lifestyle. The STARS Program coordinates supports and provides assistance in organizing othe r nontraditional partners in orde r to assist in closing the gap between needs and services. For participants of the STARS Program, strategies are planned that will identify barriers to achieving self-sufficiency. Goal setting activities are designed in such a manner that the problem they are experie ncing can be reduced. The service plan may include several groups working together with the participants to create a plan of action that can help move the family /individual above the poverty guidelines . Participants are required to attend Financial Literacy classes to help them create and maintain a budget. Incorporating th is stra tegy into the program can assist participants as they work to attain the ir set goals. The Housing Program is designed to help participants develop the habit of saving in order to become a homebuyer. The program incorporates financial literacy training , one-on-one counseling, pre-purchase counseling , Homebuyers Education works hop s and training sessions to make su re that participants are well versed in the area of home ownership.

The CSBG Director is a National Certified Grant Specialist and continually looks for fund ing to support programs that are beneficial to low-income people in Johnston , Lee and Harnett Count ies such 9s Foundation Grants, Emergency Food and Shelter Program , United Way Support and other funding as opportunities arise. We will continue to apply for funding to develop programs that will help th e STARS participants rise above the poverty level. She is also a graduate of the Financial Empowerment Learning Cluster. The CSBG Director also serves on the Johnston County Citizens Association's Tribute to Excel lence Committee where six (6) scholarships are given to deserving high school students in Johnston County who want to attend an institution of higher learning, This fund raising event honors six (6) Johnston County residents for their contributions ' to the community and the funds are used to fund the scholarships. The Head Start (BMI) Body Mass Index Program was initiated due to the high number of head start children who were overweight. The initiative is a collabo ra tive effort between Head Start, primary care physicians, local Health Departments , as well as Women, Infant and Children 's (W. I. C) offices. During the bi-annual height and weight checks, if a child's body mass index percentage indicates that a child is high, at risk, or underweight a computer-generated'graph is sent to the parents who then have to take the ch ild to a medical provider for follow-up. The nutrition coordinator then tracks the progress or lack of pro gress and follows up with the parent/guardian. If the BMI percentage is high, the curriculum in the classroom will be amend ed to help recti fy the situation . Healthy snacks are encouraged and parents receive educational information , such as monthly newsletters , et cetera to help introduce a healthier lifestyle to the entire fami ly. 8. Describe activities that your agency has undertaken or plans to undertake, on an emergency basis , for the provision of such supplies and services, nutritious foods and related services, as may be necessary to counteract conditions of starvation and malnutrition among low-incom e individuals. The CSBG STARS Program staff work very closely with the Area Ministries and partners with !ocal churches to provid e emergency assistance when resources are available. Food Vouchers are issued to elig ible app licants in Johnston County but Lee and Harnett refer cl ients to area food closets .. We will pursue additional funds from other sources to help meet the needs of low-income people needing emergency assistance. Funding from the United Way and the Emerg ency Food and Shelter Program (E FSP) is used to assist the agency in Johnston , Lee and Harnett Counties providing for emergency needs. As other food assistance programs become ava il able, people , referrals are made to ensure that any person in need of food assistance will receive services Food closets are organized within each area ministry and are supported by vol unteers and private donations from churches, schools and food drives conducted by the community. In Jo hnston Co unty , the food vouchers are distributed by the STARS Counselors. Many low-income peop le seeking emerge ncy assistance benefited when private donors contributed funds for the sole purpose of providing emergency assistance. Private donors can help those in need in this way without having to screen them to see whether or not there is real crisis. Loca l churches in all three counties also provide funds to assist participants who are experiencing a crisis. The program partners with ch urches, food banks and othe r organization s whose primary mission is to distribute food to those in need.

If a client is receiving Food Stamps or eligible to receive them, they are referred the Food and Nutrition Employment and Training Counselor at NC Works Career Center .. Referrals are made to agencies in our service area for employment and training programs. We also offer Job-Readiness workshops to our Casemanagement participants. We work with Triangle South Workforce Development in Lee and Harnett County . Staff from our agency and other Human Services agencies /organizations serves on each other's Boards and Policy Advisory Councils to ensure that our counselors are well-informed on the availability of services that are beneficial to our clients. We use referral forms to speed-up the delivery of service and to avoid duplication of services . The Executive Director and the CSBG Director serve on the Smithfield-Selma Chamber of Commerce Economic Development Committee . This affords the agency an opportunity to be in on the planning stage of any business prospects that may be coming to or leaving our area that could have a positive or potentially negative impact on low-income people . ,, The CSBG Policy Advisory Council includes representatives to the Board of Directors which is a Tri-parte board. Representatives from the NC Works Career Center and various organizations that work with individuals seeking employment share their expertise and any job opportunities. Programming concerning the availability of jobs is vital to the successful attainment of the goal of finding employment. * Of the $760 , 752 dollars allocated to the JLHCA, Inc CSBG STARS Program. approximately $ 8750 will be used for employment training. 10. Describe how your agency will ensure coordination with the emergency energy crisis intervention program under title XXVI (relating to low-income home energy assistance). The Department of Social Services and other human services refer low-income people to our agency for emergency assistance when they do meet their criteria. These service requests include utility payment assistance and other crisis aid for needy persons outside LIEAP /CIP when they no longer have funds available. Social Services' Emergency Assistance/Crisis Programs have fairly restrictive guide lines. Their emergency assistance programs are structured to meet crisis needs within a 24-hour time frame and for a certain household type ; therefore their avai lable funds are depleted very quickly and many households are left without services because they don't meet the guidelines. We coordinate our resources to try to ensure Fiscal Yea r 2020 -21 Co mmunity Servi ces Block Grant Applicati on Page 21 of 45 012120a HCBOC Page 96 Agency Name JLHCA, Inc. Planning Process Narrative (Continued} that those individuals who are in crisis receive needed help , if resources are available. By using this strategy, we can assist more low-income people as they fight to keep the most basic of needs, ex. utility payments, rental assistance , medicine , food, etc . The agency continues to seek private donations of cash, goods, and volunteer services, that is then made available to low-income people in the area. As contractors , JLHCA operate the Harnett County Department of Social Services ' Low-Income Energy Assistance Program (LI HEAP } and Crisis Intervention Program (CIP}. Three staff members were hired to operate the program in Harnett County but they are housed at the Harnett County Department of Social Services to meet emergency home heating needs. The program is a heating/cooling program and funds are disbursed only when weather conditions become extreme. The determination to release funds is made by the Harnett County Department of Social Services Director. I The JLHCA Weatherization Program and the HARRP (Heating Assistance Repair Replacement Program) provides assistance to eligible individuals/ fam ilies with their energy conservation needs. One of the primary goals of this program is to create a safe , heal thy environment in whic h low income people live. Conserving energy saves on energy bills by maximizing their heating and air appliances capabilities and allows the client to save money as the energy bill decreases. They provide home and heating system repairs , air sealing using new method to make the best use of energy conservation, rehabili tate substandard houses , replace heating systems when needed and offering educational classes in small home repairs and energy conservation. Urgent repairs are made when funds are available . The Executive Director is a member of the Weatherization Policy Advisory Council for the state Weatherization Program. The Helping Home Project funded by a Duke Energy Progress grant to the North Carolina Community Action Assqciation afforded the agency an opportunity to assist more household and complete more extensive services to the resident of the home in need of repairs. Through this program, appliances , heat/air units can be purchased to make the house more energy efficient. 11. Describe the needs of low-i ncome youth and your agency'$ efforts to promote increased community coordination and collaboration in meeting the needs of low-income youth. Many low-income youth in our service area are experiencing multiple barriers that include but are not limited to: lack of employment, recreational facil ities , transportation , high crime, mentorships and substance abuse that impede their economic and emotional growth. In the job market, they are competing with adults (their parents in some instances} who have more education, experience and emotional stabil ity. Many jobs that once used youth are now hi ring adults and even senior citizens. There.are few programs and /or activities that focus on low-income youth. Due to high rate of substance abuse (both youth and their parents) and drug related crimes in our area, parents don't let their children go to the parks and play areas. Low-income youth need access to a legal source of income , recreational programs and other activities that will foster self-esteem and create a sense of purpose. Most youth-based programs are geared toward youth with a juvenile record or who have problems (mental/social/physical). Agency staff and some board members serve on committees who offer services to youth between the ages of Oto 21.

Describe your agency's method for informing custodial parents in single-parent families that participate in CSBG programming abo ut the availability of child support services. In addition, desc ri be your method for referring eligible parents to the child support office[s]. All participants including custodial parents in single-parent households are asked whether or not they are receiving child support . They are told about the availability and advisability of seeking assistance through the local child support office. They are informed about any services they may be eligible for and contact information during the intake process . When eligible participants come into the agency seeking services , they are given a referral form by the Successfully Transitioning to Achieve Real Self-Sufficiency (STARS) Counselor that is accepted by staff at a partner entity/o rgani zation/agency. If they are not receiving child support and exp ress an interest, they are refe rred to the local ch ild support agency . If the custodia l paren t/guardian has made arrangement with the non-custodial parent and is not interested in pursuing court-ordered child support or do not wish to involve the local child-support office , we do not try to intervene. In some instances , they receive more ass ist ance directly from the non-custodial parent than they would if they involved the local child-support agency. They will not be denied serv ic es if they refu se to seek court -o rdered chi ld support. 13. Describe activities that your agency has undertaken or plans to undertake, to address the Department 's priorities which includes: o Combat the Opioid Crisis by focusing on policies and practices that prevent op ioid misuse , addiction and overdose; The CSBG Director and the Johnston Cou nty Stars Senior Counselor are members of the Johnston County Opioid Task Force. We meet with the coalition to discuss strategies to help combat the Op ioid epidem ic . Johnston Coun ty has one of the highest incidences of Opioid overdoses in the state. The Johnston County Public Health Departm en t spearheads the effort. As part of the coalition , we have be en invo lved in the following activities : • Distributing Nalaxone packets to the community • Taking part in information sessions • Distributing informational flyers for drop off sites and co unseling information.

Give the Poverty Cause name(s), rank the poverty cause(s) and identify which one(s) the agency will address. The poverty causes were ranked based on the results of the Community Needs Assessment questionnaire conducted in November 2017 and as such will be addressed and are as follows: Affordable Housing: 106, Employment: 89 and Education: 65. 2. Describe the poverty cause(s) in detail in the community with appropriate statistical data {include data sources). Approximately 27 ,015 (14.5%) people of the 186 ,308 (indexmundi.com) in Johnston County lives below the poverty guidelines. These figures reflect to tal ho useholds (no t indi vi duals ). Approximately 10,754 people of the 61,452 people in Lee County live below the poverty guidelines . These figures are reflective of the total households. Approximately 29 ,527 (22.01 %) people of the 134 ,214 people in Harnett County live below the poverty guidelines . These figures are reflective of the total househo1ds (Census .gov). The curre nt percentages of people living below the poverty level are listed as follows : Lee-17.5 %. Harnett- 22.011 % (US Census) and Johnston-14.5 %. According to the US Census , the average number of people in a household per county is: Johnston County-2.9- www.osbm.state .nc .us, Lee County-3-Lee Cou nty Chamber of Commerce and Harnett County-) 2.81 - Census.gov. I (A) Explain why the problem exists. As of November 201 7, the figures below reflect the number of households receiving assistance from Social Services: I Service: Johnston Lee J Food Stamps (households): 11, 76 4 3630 I Work First/TA NF : I Medicaid: 203 62 48,458 8050 Fi sca l Year 2020 -21 Community Services Block 'G rant Applicati on Page 25 of 45 Harnett 7648 137 29 ,039 ,. 012120a HCBOC Page 100 Agency Name JLH CA , Inc. Agency Strategy for Eliminating Poverty (continued) (8) Identify the segment of the population and give the number of people experiencing the problem. 1) Affordable Housing : Based on the responses garnered from the 2017 Community Needs Assessment Questionnaire, Affordable housing was listed as the top priority. Based on the eligibility guidelines for income-based housing in Johnston, Lee and Harnett Counties , affordable housing is very unaffordable for low-income people . Criminal background and credit checks are the main reasons that many low-income people cannot find affordable housing. If their records check reveals a judgment or a negative action by a former landlord or utility company, they may be considered ineligible. Some potential renters must pay a non- refundable application fee to complete an application, credit report, and background check. Having to do so for multiple locations can prove to be both costly and difficult. The average rental cost for a 3-bedroom apartment runs between $750.00 to $1500.00 (higher in some cases) depending on the location and the landlord. Some private landlords take advantage of clients who don 't meet the Section VIII or income based housing guidelines even if the house is substandard. When you factor in high rent , high deposits and high utility deposits that can cost up to $1000.00 together so it's understandable that affordable housing was ranked number one on the Community Needs Assessment questionnaire. The waiting list for subsidized housing is between 4 to 7 years. In Johnston County alone , the Housing Ass istance Payment Program has an extensive waiting list with an average wait time of 7 years. The layers of restrictions 'are increasing at an alarming rate. As the renters' market increases , the chances of low-income people finding affordable housing decreases. Anyone coming to the agency seeking emergency as·sistance must attend the mandatory Financial Literacy classes . The classes are designed to help clients develop budgeting skills that will help them manage their money. As their credit scores rise , the participant will become more attractive to the landlord or mortgage lenders. 2) Employment: With the lack of good paying jobs especially those with benefits in our service areas, it was;iot surprising that employment was one of the top priorities for persons completing the surveys. Many of the STARS participants enter the program without the qualifications/skills necessary to command high wages and their salaries reflect that fact. Some of the likely culprits may be a lack of education (acade mic/vocationa l), transportation and criminal backgrounds , etc. Many people with college degrees are finding it difficult to find a job and even harder to find a job with benefits. Competition is fierce and jobs are few or require specific skill sets. Many of the participants only have a high school diploma or a GED, which makes their prospect for employment dismal. Participants without a diploma are finding it very hard to find a job. Employers are increasingly concerned with the skill level of both their current employees and potential employees. Employers must be cognizant of the type of skills needed for their businesses to thrive in today 's globa l economy. According to the North Carolina Caree r Readiness Certificate Consortium , more than 80% of all jobs were projected to require skills beyond high school. The CRC is an assessment-based credential that gives employers and career seekers a uniform measure of key workplace skills. As a result, both job seekers and incumbent workers are increasingly called upon to demonstrate a more advanced set of skills or at least the ability to deve lop those skills through on-the-job training. Fiscal Year 2020 -21 Comm unity Services Block Grant Application Page 26 of 45 012120a HCBOC Page 101 Agency Name JLHCA , In c. Agency Strategy for Eliminating Poverty (continued) . North Carolina 's Career Readiness Certification (CRC) is designed to meet the needs of both employers and job seekers in this trans itioning economy. For employers, the CRC offers a reliable means of determining whether a potential employee has the necessary literacy, numeracy and problem-solving skills to be "job ready . To help decrease these barriers, the STARS program will place more emphasis on programming which incorporate activities that will enhance job/ski ll s development , coaching participants on job-readiness endeavors which include the Career Readiness Certification. It is imperative that STARS participants are equipped with this certificate because for job seekers , the CRC serves as a portabte credential that can rank higher with employers than a high school degree or a resume citing experience in a different job setting. Unemp lo yment figures re flect those persons still unemployed and drawing benefits , so the actual figures are usually higher than reported. Some people don't have any reserve of time to draw down from. The /*la test unemployment figures for 2019 are as follows: Johnston County-3.2%, Lee County - 3.90% and Harnett County 4.2%. 3) Education: Education presents a momentous barrier to one's self-suffic iency. In order to attain gainful employment capable of increasing their household income to a level of being able to success fully sustain household expenses without outside help , it is imperative for an individual to be cognizant of the needs to improve their educational status. Job listings ind icate specific educational levels the appl icant must possess and if participants are unable to meet those particular requirements , they automatically become less marketable to emp lo yers. As a resu lt of being less marketable there is an increased risk of being over looked . By increasing their education levels, STARS participants open up greater opportunit ies that would not be available to them otherwise. Setting educational goals serves multiple purposes. Not only does it broaden the participa nt s' horizons leading to a new perspective of how to handle their situatio ns , but it also expands the spectrum for the types of positions they are ab le to apply for. Wi th many participants having no more than a high school diploma or GED , it is necessary to encourage them to seek out access to available opportun ities that would assist them in becoming better educated cit izens in their co mmunities. By doing so they are creati ng a fighting chance in securing their ideal emp loyment.

Agency Strategy for Eliminating Poverty (continued) (D) Explain how the persons are adversely affected. Low-income residents of Johnston , Lee and Harnett Counties are adversely affected by negative economic conditions due to the lack of funds needed to meet their most basic needs , ex. Shelter , food , utilities , etc. When the state legis lators reduced the amount of unemployment benefits and the number of weeks they can receive benefits, it caused a hardship on the very people who could least afford it. These families were already struggling; therefore , trying to maintain a household , provide a nutritious meal for themselves and the ir family and keep utility services connected is virtu ally impossible. Many low-income persons seeking services are li ving on SSI benefits for their child(ren) or child support from absentee dads or moms. There has been an increase in the number of people contacting the agency seeking Foreclosure Preventions and requesting Reverse Mortgage assistance . That fact alone is an indicato r of the scope of the problem that exists in our service areas. It has affected all age groups as the Reverse Mortgage Program requires that the homeowner must be 62 years of age or older.

We proposed 13 would obtain employment, actual number was 30 We proposed 10 would complete an educational goal, actual number was 12 Employment support proposed was 23 , actual was 30 Education support proposed was 7 but actual was 16 These areas were successful for a variety of reasons which include but are not limited to : Participants desire to make changes , job availability , opportunities for advancement , counselors motivating , encouraging and working with partners to help parti9ipants expand their skill set and knowledge base. Areas where targets were not me were : Proposed that 15 would rise above the poverty level but actual was 9 We proposed 10 would obtain better employment but the actual number was 9 Securing affordable housing proposed was 12, actual was 8 Proposed 25 would need emergency assistance but actual was 12. Medical benefits proposed was 8, actual was 4 These areas fell short of expectations for several reasons which are: Even though they obtained a job , family si ze and low wages prevented them from rising above the poverty guidelines. Their employment ended which prevented them from rising above the guideline and some did not mainta in their employment for 90 consecutive days. Ill ness of participant or family members. Affordable housing in many cases is not available due to an influx of new people moving into the county creat ing a housing shortage. Landlords are adding layers of requirements , ex. Higher credit scores and incomes. The proposed number for emergency assistance was smaller in part to the financia l literacy classes wh ich introduced participants to new ways to manage their finances and as they worked on creating a budget , it was apparent in some instances that changes had to be in their househo ld. Some changes that we will implemen t will be to look at creating new partnerships and /or improving existing ones to help fill the gaps that prevented the agency from meeting its proposed goals .
