DISCUSSION:
In December 2022, staff submitted a grant application to San Gabriel/Pomona Regional Center, for the FY 2022-23 Social Recreation Grant Program, which offered to fund projects to community partners to develop programs or services for children and adolescents with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (I/DD), to enhance and develop integrated and inclusive social and recreational programs. In March 2023, the City received notification that the grant application was awarded in the amount of $94,790, and entered into an agreement with SGPRC in April 2023. The grant provided funding to hire five inclusion staff to provide support to youth with I/DD participating in the City’s After School Recreation Program and/or youth sports, as well as contract with Kids Included Together, a non-profit organization to train City staff, staff of local-serving organizations, parents/guardians, and the general public in inclusive principles and practices in order to better meet the needs of Pomona’s youth with I/DD.
In March 2024, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2024-33 to appropriate the remaining balance of the Inclusive Pomona grants not appropriated during the FY 2023-24 budgeting process. The approval of this resolution increased the FY 2023-24 Operating Budget revenue estimates by $79,790 and appropriating $79,790 in San Gabriel/Pomona Regional Center (SGPRC) funding to the Inclusive Pomona project.
