INTRODUCTION
Block Grant Funding, Public Participation, Service Delivery and Program Period
Social Services Block Grant (SSBG)
Social Services Block Grant legislation enables states to claim limited federal funds to provide social services for individuals and families. The services are designed to assist individuals or families to become less dependent on others for financial support or personal care; to protect children and adults from neglect, abuse, or exploitation and to provide family maintenance; to avoid unnecessary or premature institutionalization; and to gain appropriate placement if institutionalization is necessary.
Each state is responsible for determining the social services most appropriate for its citizens. In Arkansas, citizens are involved in the planning process and have an opportunity to respond to planning decisions. Arkansas uses the Comprehensive Services Program Plan to inform the State's citizens and to meet pre-expenditure report requirements of Social Services Block Grant legislation. Arkansas will publish the Comprehensive Services Program Plan and prepare updates as necessary to reflect substantial changes in the activities which affect the overall intent of the Plan. Any substantive revisions will be made available for public review and comment. The Arkansas Social Services Block Grant Program operates on the State Fiscal Year which runs from July 1 through June 30. This document will be effective July 1, 2004.
Public Review Process
A public review period will be initiated on March 21, 2004 by a notice in a statewide newspaper and will conclude April 19, 2004. The Arkansas Department of Human Services (DHS) will accept comments from service recipients, service providers, and other interested citizens. Questions and comments should be sent to the Office of Fiscal Management at the address listed below.
Arkansas Department of Human Services Office of Finance and Administration General Operations Section, Slot W405 P.O. Box 1437 Little Rock, AR 72203
Comments pertaining to aspects of the program for which a division or office has responsibility will be forwarded to that agency for response. Changes made as a result of public comment will be included in an update to the document.

OPERATION OF THE
SOCIAL SERVICES BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM
IN ARKANSAS
OPERATION OF THE SOCIAL SERVICES BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM IN ARKANSAS
PLANNING PROCESS
Planning for the Arkansas Social Services Block Grant program has been modified and revised on an ongoing basis to meet changing program conditions. Service planning is based on client and expenditure information, the individually developed methodology of each division and office for gaining additional community information for the design of its Social Services Block Grant program, and suggestions and comments from the public.
Information gathered in the process, together with a variety of other planning and decision-making tools available to the Department, has been used in determining and setting priorities and in continuing efforts to improve effectiveness. The Office of Finance and Administration maintains files on the public participation process which are available for review by interested citizens.
PROGRAM MONITORING AND EVALUATION
Each division and office is responsible for monitoring and evaluating (either directly or through contract) all services provided with its allocation of Social Services Block Grant funds. Evaluations include on-site monitoring visits on a sampling basis.
The reviews are based on federal and state regulations, the contract agreement, licensing and certification standards, program criteria and guidelines, and social work practice. In addition to the monitoring and evaluation performed by the appropriate division or office, each contract provider is to utilize an internal monitoring and evaluation process. The monitoring component should insure that the services billed are delivered to eligible clients in accordance with the terms of the contract. The evaluation should indicate the degree of achievement attributable to the program in relation to stated program goals and objectives.
REPORTING
Effective October 1988, Social Services Block Grant legislation instituted new reporting requirements utilizing uniform service definitions. Arkansas has developed an eligibility and reimbursement system incorporating the new reporting requirements while maintaining complete demographic and service delivery data to provide an accurate picture of service delivery patterns for the Arkansas Social Services Block Grant program.
The Office of Finance and Administration prepares and compiles reports containing information about services delivered to clients, client demographic information, and service expenditures. Reports produced include: Expenditures by Service, Age Range and Services Goals.
Many federal and private agencies, states, and individuals send research questionnaires or letters of inquiry regarding Arkansas' experience with the Social Services Block Grant. Information regarding the services program (including purchase of service contracts) is open to the public. (Individual client names and information about the clients are protected by law.)
PROGRAM COORDINATION AND UTILIZATION
The provision of social services under the Social Services Block Grant is coordinated with other programs providing related human services within the State. It is vital to continually coordinate these programs in order to appropriately utilize social service dollars and service programs to meet the needs of the low income population.
Coordination with Economic Assistance Programs
Transitional Employment Assistance (TEA) (Title IV-A): The provision of financial assistance to low income persons is mandated under Title IV-A of the Social Security Act. Social Services are provided for TEA recipients through the Social Services Block Grant (Title XX) program. The TEA program includes a work and training program for TEA recipients and has an integral part in the provision of supportive services and requires coordination with Social Services Block Grant programs. Social Services Block Grant funds may pay for services such as day care when clients are no longer eligible for payment from TEA in order for the individual to maintain employment.
Supplemental Security Income (Title XVI): The Social Security Administration determines eligibility and issues payments for the Supplemental Security Income Program for the needy, blind, disabled and aged citizens of Arkansas.
Coordination with Medical Assistance Programs
Medicaid (Title XIX): Title XIX of the Social Security Act, the federal statutory basis for the Medical Assistance Program, allows the state to provide financial assistance for low income persons to assist them in securing certain necessary medical services. The cost of the medical services provided to social service clients is covered primarily through the Medical Assistance Program and in accordance with the Arkansas Title XIX Medical Assistance Plan which defines those medical services reimbursable under Title XIX. Services which are inherent responsibilities of a Title XIX facility and intrinsic to its purpose must be provided by the facility under its Title XIX program, not from Social Services Block Grant funds. Any costs of services not reimbursable through other provisions of the Medical program must be paid from the Title XIX vendor payment. Activities or services which meet, duplicate, or substitute for a facility's service requirements under Title XIX may not be paid for under the Social Services Block Grant. The state may receive reimbursement on a case-by-case basis for some medical or remedial services under the Social Services Block Grant if the client is eligible, if the service is not covered in the Title XIX State Plan or by Medicare, and if the service provided is clearly an integral and subordinate part of a discrete social service specifically defined as such in this plan.
Coordination with Child Welfare Programs
Child Welfare Programs: Both federal and state law mandate a child welfare service delivery system directed at safety and child protection, preserving and strengthening family life, providing permanency for children who cannot remain or be reunited with their families, and support services for other youth until they reach the age of majority. Title IV-E and Title IV-B parts I and II fund 67% of the Division of Children and Family Services program budget for social services and foster care, adoptions, and child welfare training. Social Service Block Grant funds .02% of the program budget for purchased services costs.
Coordination With Other Human Services Programs
Department divisions and offices utilize a variety of funding along with Social Services Block Grant funding in the programs for which they are responsible.
Division of Aging and Adult Services (DAA): The Division utilizes the following resources: State of Arkansas General Revenue Funds (for operation of the Division and funding programs); State Older Worker funds; Special Cigarette Tax revenues; Administration of Aging's Older Americans Act funds through Title III Part B (Supportive Services and Senior Centers), Part C (Nutrition Services), Part D (Disease Prevention and Health Promotion Services), and Part E (National Family Caregiver Support Program ); Title V (Community Service Employment for Older Americans); Title VII (Allotments for Vulnerable Elder Rights Protection Activities); Nutrition Services Incentive Program; USDA Farmers Market; and Medicaid Waiver Services.

To meet the needs of persons with developmental disabilities and to maintain flexibility in managing these funding sources, the relative use of the various funding sources may change throughout the program year.
Division of Behavioral Health Services (DBH): The Division utilizes the following resources: State of Arkansas General Revenue Funds (to fund the Division and operate programs including community support programs); per capita funds (monies appropriated to mental health centers on the basis of population in the catchment area served and used for program operations); National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) grants (community support programs) Community Mental Health Block Grant (to fund mental health programs: Title XIX; State of Arkansas General Revenue Funds and Special Revenue Funds (for detoxification services, Drug and Alcohol Safety Educational Programs, etc.); Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Performance Partnership Block Grant Funds (for planning, establishing, maintaining, coordinating and evaluating projects for the development of fore effective prevention, intervention and treatment programs/activities to deal with alcohol and other drug abuse); the Governor's Office portion of the Department of Education Drug-Free Schools and Communities (used for development and implementation of broadly-based programs of alcohol and drug abuse education and prevention, including programs for high-risk youth, drug abuse resistance education and replication of successful drug education programs).
Division of Services for the Blind (DSB): The Division utilizes the following resources: State of Arkansas General Revenue Funds and Federal Rehabilitation Act funds.
Division of Youth Services (DYS): The Division utilizes the following resources: State of Arkansas General Revenue Funds (for operation of the Division and its programs); National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program; Juvenile Justice Delinquency Prevention Funding; Title VI-B Special
Education, Chapter I funds and Medicaid.
The following agencies which are not within the Department of Human Services also utilize Social Services Block Grant funding: Arkansas Department of Workforce Education (Arkansas Rehabilitation Services), and Arkansas Spinal Cord Commission.
Arkansas Department of Workforce Education, Arkansas Rehabilitation Services (ARS): The agency utilizes the following resources: State of Arkansas General Revenue Funds (for agency operations and for matching of Federal Rehabilitation Act funds); Federal Rehabilitation Act funds; Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) Trust Fund monies (funds appropriated by the Federal government to aid SSDI recipients attempting to become self-sufficient); Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Trust Fund monies (funds appropriated by the Federal government to aid SSI recipients attempting to become self-sufficient); Veterans Administration funding for clients who are veterans; and Title XIX funds (to serve physically and mentally handicapped persons).
Arkansas Spinal Cord Commission (SCC): The Arkansas Spinal Cord Commission utilizes Social Services Block Grant funds along with State General Revenue Funds to provide services to individuals with spinal cord disabilities.
ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
Most Social Services Block Grant funded services are provided free of cost to those who are eligible. Unless specified in this document, no fees or payments may be requested in Arkansas at this time. (See Fees for Services, page 14.) In order to receive a service paid through Social Services Block Grant funds, an individual must meet three basic requirements:
The eligibility categories for financial criteria are defined as follows:
TEA: This category refers to recipients of Transitional Employment Assistance, essential persons, and adult relatives whose needs were taken into account in determining the TEA grant.
SSI: This category refers to any aged, blind, or disabled individual receiving Supplemental Security Income benefits.
Income Eligible Recipients: This category refers to individuals whose income does not exceed the income levels shown in Table 1. Eligibility under this category is based on percentages of median income adjusted by family size. The income scale is based on the Estimated State Median Income for 4-Person Families for Federal Fiscal Year 1998 issued by the Administration for Children and Families, Department of Health and Human Services. Complete income eligibility information is shown in Table 1 on page 14.
Without Regard to Income: This category refers to individuals for whom financial status is not considered, but is limited to individuals receiving Protective Services for Adults and Children. When required by a protective service case plan, any service funded by the Social Services Block Grant and described in this Plan may be provided without regard to income when eligibility cannot be established under another category.
Status Eligible: This category will be used to establish eligibility for clients of the Division of Youth Services (DYS) who fall into the priority target population of DYS and who cannot be established as eligible under the first four categories listed above. Youth in this category are eligible regardless of financial status; however, documentation must exist in the provider's case record that the youth is either a delinquent or family in need of services.
Additional or substitute requirements to satisfy eligibility standards may only be established on an individual contract basis upon written approval by the DHS Chief Fiscal Officer or designee.
National Goals
Each service provided to an individual must be directed at one of the following national goals:
Application Process
Application for services may be made either by the applicant or the applicant's authorized representative in the office of a contract provider or in the Department of Human Services county office in the county in which the applicant resides.

Family of 10 ................................ | $ 33,281 |
For over ten family members, add $693 to the annual income for a family size of ten for each additional member.
A family is one or more adults and children, if any, related by blood or law and residing together in the same household. Spouses are legally responsible for each other and shall be considered as a part of the same family unit unless they reside in separate households (e.g., one spouse in a supervised living facility). If either spouse has legal responsibility for a child, then both spouses and the child are considered as a family unit. Where adults other than spouses reside together, each is considered a separate family by the State. Emancipated minors and children living under the care of individuals not legally responsible for their care are considered one-person families by the State.
Under the direction of the Office of Finance and Administration Services, contract provider agencies generally assume responsibility for completion of application documents, determination of the client's eligibility, residency, and authorization for purchased services as appropriate.
Financial eligibility will be determined on the basis of the applicants' statements (referred to as the Declaration Method). The staff informs the applicant that he or she has a right to a hearing if dissatisfied either with the handling of the application or the length of time between a favorable decision of eligibility and receipt of the service.
Fees for Services
Arkansas has adopted a fee system with fee assessment based on client income adjusted by family size. Three types of fees are allowable:
Service Delivery Areas
For purposes of Social Services Block Grant planning and service delivery, Arkansas is divided into five Service Delivery Areas. Each Service Delivery Area (SDA) is comprised of a number of counties. Table 2 on page 15 lists SDAs, the counties included in each area, and the locations of the Department of Human Services county offices.

FUNDING
FINANCIAL DATA SECTION
Introduction
Federal funding is made available to states through the Social Services Block Grant established in October, 1981. Enactment of block grant legislation continued the service program funding initially made available through Title XX of the Social Security Act, which was established in 1975. At the outset, the federal funding level was set at $2.5 billion, available to states at a 75 percent rate with 25 percent matching required; an additional $200 million was appropriated for day care programs, but without the matching requirement. In the Social Services Block Grant, the funding was combined into one allotment. The total of this federal funding has varied over the years of the program's operation. The total funding for federal fiscal year 2001 was $1.725 billion; $50 million less than the federal fiscal year 2000 appropriation. Funding has been $1.7 billion since 2002 and funding for federal fiscal year 2005 is also estimated at $1.7 billion.
Federal funding allotments to states are based on the federal fiscal year which is in effect from October 1 through September 30. The Arkansas Social Services Block Grant program operates on the state fiscal year which runs from July 1 through June 30. This is done so that the program can be coordinated as closely as possible with the state biennial budget cycle. Because of this coordination, expenditure estimates in this plan should correspond to those in the budget; however, since the state budget is planned for the biennium and since the program is dependent on federal funding which may vary from one year to the next, an exact match between the biennial budget and this program plan is not possible.
Planning Financial Data
Total funding for the Arkansas Social Services Block Grant program is made up of funds from the Social Services Block Grant and state and local matching (donated and appropriated). The table below shows funding from each source and total estimated funding for state fiscal year 2005.

The Director of the Department of Human Services allocates funds to each program area within the Department and to the Arkansas Rehabilitation Services and the Arkansas Spinal Cord Commission. In turn, these agencies set funding levels for services. A portion of the funding is allocated to cover costs associated with the administration and management of the program. Table 4 shows program area funding estimates and other related allocation information. Administrative costs are defined and described in the following section.

Administrative Costs
Administrative costs are those costs incurred by the Department of Human Services which are primarily for the management, supervision, or administrative support of the Social Services Block Grant program as opposed to the delivery of services. The administrative costs for this program are $1,284,785 budgeted to the Office of Finance and Administration (OFA).
Activities considered administrative costs for OFA include: cost of planning, policy development, budgeting and administration.
Other divisions, offices and agencies funding administrative expenditures from Social Services Block Grants are:
* The Division of Behavioral Health Services, $85,211 to provide administrative services (grant development, payments, tracking, etc.);
* The Office of Chief Counsel, $147,972 for legal library maintenance, travel expenses and appearance fees related to medical testimony for child protective service cases, and miscellaneous administrative costs.
Some divisions and offices have elected to fund part or all of their Social Services Block Grant administrative expenditures from other sources in order to have more Social Services Block Grant funds available for the purchase or direct delivery of services. In such cases, only the costs funded under the Social Services Block Grant have been shown.
A portion of the funding allocated to the Office of Finance and Administration's cost center may be utilized for specialized projects as determined by the DHS Director such as a one-time funded project. An example of such, would be the emergency funding for specific SSBG services.
Projected administrative expenditures of the Office of Finance and Administration under the Social Services Block Grant are based on the funds appropriated for the Office of Finance and Administration's biennial budget.
Pilot Projects
Certain aspects of purchased services may be initiated as pilot projects and may continue until sufficient data has been gathered and verified to determine the feasibility of incorporating the project into general use.
FINANCIAL SUMMARIES AND ESTIMATES OF CLIENTS AND EXPENDITURES
Financial information has been placed on summary sheets for each division and office (and the Arkansas Rehabilitation Services and Arkansas Spinal Cord Commission) which provides direct or purchased services with Social Services Block Grant funding. The funding for services is arranged in sections by Department division or office. Each section devoted to a division or office (or agency) program includes:
Estimates of clients to be served and expenditures are totaled for all program agencies and shown in the Appendix.
