SUMMARY
As a Housing and Urban Development entitlement community, the City receives grant
funds under the Community Development Block Grant, Emergency Shelter Grant and the
Home Investment Partnerships Act Program. The funds are distributed among local non-
profits, housing developers and city departments to provide decent housing, economic
opportunities and provide a suitable living environment for low and moderate income
persons. Prior to the distribution of the grant funds, the City must conduct a minimum of
two public hearings to solicit public input on the community development and housing
needs and establish funding priorities for the program year.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
At this time, no action is requested to fund specific activities; thus, no environmental
review is necessary. Once Council selects which activities to fund, the Environmental
Review Coordinator will review the proposed activities for compliance with the National
Environmental Protection Act (NEPA) and will determine the level of environmental
review necessary for each individual project.
RECOMMENDA nON
Council conduct the public hearing, accept comments and provide direction to staff.

DISCUSSION
As an entitlement community with the Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD), the City receives funds under three of their block grant programs: Community
Development Block Grant (CDBG); the Emergency Shelter Grant (ESG); and the HOME
Investment Partnership Act (HOME), which includes American Dream Downpayment
Initiative (ADDI). The entitlement amounts allocated to jurisdictions are determined
using a formula based on statistical and demographic data. The funds are to be expended
to provide decent housing, a suitable living environment, and to expand economic
opportunities, principally for low and moderate-income persons. Each entitlement
community develops their own programs and funding priorities.
HUD has notified staff that the City will receive approximately $2.9 million in combined
entitlement funds for fiscal year 2008/2009 ($1,973,771 in CDBG; $906,542 in HOME;
and $88,169 in ESG). These amounts represent an approximate 3.7% decrease from
2007-2008 funding levels. The decrease is the result of recent budget cuts at the Federal
level. Refer to Attachment 1, 2008/2009 Federal Grants Budget.
Each year the City undertakes a process to solicit requests and approve programs and
projects for these grant funds, and similar to previous years will include both requests for
funding from various City departments and local organizations. The purpose of this
public hearing is to offer residents, non-profit organizations and other interested parties an
opportunity to provide input on the 2008/2009 proposals received, as well as provide
input on funding recommendations (Attachment 2).
Accompanying this report is the 2008/2009 Federal Grant Funding Application Notebook
(Attachment 3), which compiles all funding categories:
. Administration/Planning and Public Service applications;
. City Capital Improvement projects;
. Community Enhancement projects;
. Housing; and, Emergency Shelter Programs.
The Notebook describes in greater detail all the grant requests for funding received on an
annual basis.
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
In order to be eligible for block grant funding, a project must address at least one of the
following CDBG national objectives:
. Benefit primarily low and moderate-income families;
. Aid in the prevention or elimination of slums or blight; and,
. Meet other community needs having a major emergency (disasters, etc.).
The total amount of CDBG funding requested is summarized below. It should be noted
that the total amount of requests exceeds the amount available by $218,610.

. Public Services Program: The city may allocate up to fifteen percent (15%) of the
CDBG entitlement amount to public service programs, based on a cap of the
entitlement funds. Public service activities include but are not limited to: employment
services, child care, health services, substance abuse services, welfare and recreation
needs.
All of the funding requests received for the public service programs are CDBG-
eligible as they meet the national objective to primarily benefit low-income families.
Staff is recommending that prior-year applicants receive the same amount of funding
as they received in 2007/2008. Although there is a funding reduction, we can achieve
this funding level due to a decrease in funding applications.
. Capital Improvement and Community Enhancement Proiects: The Capital
Improvement and Community Enhancement category includes five (5) requests,
which total $1,410,000. These requests include $760,000 for principal and interest
payments on a $9.5 million Section 108 Loan which is being used for infrastructure
improvements in the Castle Park Area. The remaining $522,952 is available for
capital improvement and community enhancement projects. This category does not
have a funding cap limit, but is limited by available funds.
Capital Improvement Projects may include acquisition, construction or
installation of eligible public facilities improvements (except for buildings
for the general conduct of government). Improvements include streets,
sidewalks, curbs, gutters, parks, playgrounds, water/sewer lines and
flood/drainage improvements.
Community Enhancement Projects work together with public or private
improvements, which result in the elimination of blight in the community.
In addition to the required Section 108 loan payment, three (3) additional
funding requests are being recommended: (1) ADA curb cuts; (2) a one-
time funding for a new HV AC system for the new Sharp Healthcare Clinic
on Landis and, (3) the Community Housing Improvement Loan/Grant

Program (CHIP) to establish a revolving loan program that provides low-
interest and/or forgivable loans to qualified low income households in
Chula Vista for home repairs.
. Administration and Planning; The City may allocate up to twenty percent (20%) of the
CDBG entitlement amount to administration and planning activities. These include
City staff time reimbursements, contractual fair housing services and contractual
homeless administrative services
HOME Investment Partnership Act Program (HOME)
The City will receive $906,542 in HOME funds for fiscal year 2008/2009. HOME funds
may be used to provide affordable rental housing and home ownership opportunities
through:
. New construction;
. Acquisition;
. Rehabilitation;
. First time homebuyer assistance; and
. Tenant-based rental assistance.
In past years the City has used these funds to support new construction and acquisition
activities related to the development of affordable housing, such as the recently completed
Seniors on Broadway development (41 rental units to very low income seniors). HOME
funds will be set-aside to assist qualified developers in the production of affordable
housing. The selection of housing projects are brought forward to City Council for
funding consideration as applications are received and processed.
Emergency Shelter Grant Program (ESG)
Chula Vista will receive ESG entitlement funds in the amount of $88,169 for fiscal year
2008/2009. The City received one proposal from South Bay Community Services, a local
homeless service provider, for the use of these funds.
DECISION MAKER CONFLICT
Staff has determined that the activities under the Administration and some Public Service
programs of the CDBG, HOME and ESG programs are not site specific and consequently
the 500 foot rule found in California Code of Regulations section 18704.2(a)(I) is not
applicable to this decision.
However, several Public Services programs and Capital Improvement and Community
Enhancement projects are site specific. For this reason, Staff reviewed the property
holdings of the City Council and found no property holdings within 500 feet of the
boundaries of the projects and programs.

Department of Housing and Urban Development for the CDBG, HOME and ESG grant
programs. These funds will be used to provide: public services; housing services;
complete capital improvement projects; produce affordable housing; and aid the
homeless. There is no cost to the City's General Fund as project and staff costs are
covered by the grants.

PROJECT NARRATIA VB
A. Need
1. The California Department of Health Services and the California
Department of Aging estimate that at least 15% of the older population aged 55+, have
physical or mental impairments serious enough to cause institutionalization.
The City of Chula Vista Community Development Department estimates
that at least 19% of its population is aged 55 and above as ofJanuary 1, 2003. This
segment of the population numbers 38, 212. Potentially 1,910 residents of the City of
Chula Vista could use services such as adult day health care to delay or eliminate the
need for institutionalization.
Previous Accomplishments:
2. The South Bay Adult Day Health Care Center has received funding for
transportation services for several years. For the 2007-2008 fiscal year, the Center
received $11,000.00 of CDBG funding. At present all objectives are being met. In
previous years obj ectives were met or exceeded.
B. Benefit
The overall goal of the program is to offer a safe caring alternative for older
adults and other disabled adults so that institutionalization can be delayed or eliminated.
1. This can be accomplished by providing access to services at the Center by
providing or arranging transportation services.
2. Develop, with the help of in-house and community specialists, a plan of
care for each individual which will include a treatment and maintenance program.
The South Bay Adult Day Health Care Center will provide approximately 16,500
days of service to 115 unduplicated clients (participants) during the 2006-2007 fiscal
year. Of this number 95% or 110 will be low/moderate income, and 65% or 75 will be
residents of Chula Vista.
C. Other Resources and Collaboration
The agency has not pursued active fund raising to date. The Center has held
rummage sales and raffles to enhance its enrichment funds.
Volunteers are beneficial in assisting with the daily activities at the Center.
The agency conducts a single audit every year performed by an outside CPA firm.
The Adult Day Health Care program is audited annually by the California Department of
Aging. The agency employs a full time accountant and two full time accounting clerks.
The agency has successfully managed the State Licensed Adult Day Health Care
Program since 1976. We have a contract to provide day health care services to Veterans
and are certified and funded by the U.S. Department Veterans Affairs.
D. On!anizational capacity
1. The mission of Adult Protective Services, Inc. is to prevent
institutionalization and improve the quality of life for disabled and disadvantaged senior
citizen and adults.
2. The agency was incorporated in 1970 and has provided adult day care,

SCOPE OF SERVICES
11. Scope of Services
A. Proi ect Description
1. Adult Day Health Care is an organized day program of therapeutic, social
and health services provided to older adults or other adults with physical or mental
impairments to restore or maintain to the fullest extent possible the capacity for self-care.
Services provided include nursing, social services, restorative therapies, meals, and
transportation.
2. An Intake Data Sheet is completed on all participants. This form contains
information such as name, address, date of birth, race, ethnicity, income and gender
characteristics.
3. The South Bay Adult Day Health Center works closely with other day care
centers, day health care centers, senior centers, housing and residential care facilities.
Referrals and collaborative efforts are used for the benefit of our joint clients. Hospitals
and community clinics, as well as the community at large, are educated as to the benefits
of adult day health care and the availability of this service.
4. The Center contracts for nutritional services, adult education services and
transportation services with local providers. Staff attends community meetings, such as
the South Bay providers Council, Coalition of Mental Health, and local resource fairs
such as health and social services fairs.
B. Target Population
Adult Protective Services, Inc. and the South Bay Adult Day Health Care Center
targets older adults 55+ who are in need of alternative services to prevent
institutionalization. These older adults may include frail elders with multiple health
conditions, individuals with Alzheimer's disease, chronically mentally ill adults and older
persons with developmental disabilities.
Because the South Bay Adult Day Health Care Center is certified by the State
Department of Health Services as a Medi-Cal provider, the Center must also service those
eligible adults over 18 years of age. Normally about 15% of those served are between the
ages of 18-55
Currently, 48 residents of Chula Vista have received adult day health care
services in fiscal year 2007-2008. All are disabled and low/moderate income, of those
currently enrolled (39) as of September 2007: (15) white, (1) Black/African American,
(3) Asian, (1) Pacific Islander and (19) Hispanic.
C. Outreach
The Center Program Manager and Social Workers are actively doing outreach on
an ongoing basis. They attend health fairs. They work in conjunction with doctor's
offices, health care providers, hospital discharge planners, in-home health care providers
and in-home support services. They make site visits to senior apartment complexes,
board and care facilities, trailer parks and church groups to inform residents of the
Center's activities, programs and the benefits of attending.
12. Performance Schedule
1. The program is evaluated both in-house and by various governmental
agencies to confirm that services are appropriate to the participants' needs and that
services are being carried out. The State Departments of Aging and Health Services do a
comprehensive evaluation bi-annually for appropriateness for their clients, and the Medi-
Cal Field Office evaluates services for some Medi-Cal participants every six months.
2. The obj ective of providing or arranging transportation services to and
from the Center will be used as a performance measurement.

PROJECT NARRATIVE
10. PROJECT NARRATIVE (You may adjust the spacing as necessary, however the body of the
application may not exceed four (4) pages, excluding the performance schedule and budget.)
a. Need Document the need for the project/program. If the project has been funded before, what
have been the primary accomplishments?
Many low income people do not have the strength, the knowledge or the funds to repair such
things as broken faucets, electrical switches, fix broken railings, install grab bars, etc. They can be
left without safe homes. If these minor repairs are not made quickly, they can create dangerous
living conditions, leading to health problems or injuries. When health problems or injuries occur,
people may no longer be able to stay in their own homes and may have to move to a health care
facility or nursing home. Many of these people can continue to live in their own communities,
maintain the social ties and the best possible quality of life with the support of a "caring neighbor".
The primary accomplishments of this program were to assist people with minor home repairs,
allowing them to stay in their own homes rather than having to move to a more expensive
alternative, or being without a home. Transportation to doctors' appointments and other
assistance, such as help with filling out paperwork for health and other benefits, also assisted these
seniors and people with disabilities to stay in their homes.
b. Benefit Discuss how the project/program provides benefit to low-income persons.
How does the proposed project respond to the City of Chula Vista needs?
As mentioned above, the program is a resource for low income people to help them maintain a safe
and healthy environment, so they can remain in their own homes for a longer period of time. This
will enable them to maintain their independence and live in their own communities. They will be
able to maintain the health and social connections they have and not be forced to move to most
costly, less independent facilities, such as nursing homes.
c. Other Resources and Collaboration Identify other potential or actual sources of funds. What fund
raising has the organization done to support the propased project? What role do volunteers play
in this project? Has your organization developed this project in collaboration with other groups
offering services? What services offered by other community groups complement the proposed
project? Are the proposed activities duplicative of projects operated by other local public or non-
profit organizations?
Lutheran Social Services of Southern California provides funds to help support this program,
through general support from churches and donors throughout southern California. Volunteers are
recrnited to help with small home repairs and other tasks and services. The volunteers' skills are
matched to the needs and requests of those who need them. The program works very closely with
Chula Vista's other services for the elderly and people with disabilities, and shares office space with
the Senior Center. Lutheran Social Services of Southern California also operates an emergency
food program, "Project Hand", which is a referral source for the Caring Neighbors program. Some
people who are in need of minor home repairs are in need of emergency food or assistance from
time to time and can be referred to Project Hand. The coordinator of this program assesses the
other needs of the clients when she visits the home to respond to a need for a small home repair.
In addition to emergency food needs, the coordinator can also alert the senior center staff to other
problems which are discovered in the home. The individual then receives more than just the
requested home repair: a network of refetral to other services for assistance.
Part 11- Application Part II
Page 8 of 29
Caring Neighbors also provides transportation services which are not provided by other agencies to
help with doctors' appointments, shopping and other necessary trips for which people lack other,
adequate transportation.
There is no other local public or non-profit organization which duplicates the services offered by
the Caring Neighbors Program.
d. Oraanizational CaDacitv Summarize the organization's background/programmatic capacity.
Does your organization or proposed service fill a unique niche among clients who are not currently
served, or are under-served? Attach a list of the Board of Directors.
LSS/SC has been developing and administering Caring Neighbors programs in many areas
throughout Southern California for the past two (2) decades. LSS has Caring Neighbors programs
in Escondido, Chula Vista, Ventura County.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
11. Scope of Services
a. Prolect DescriDtion Describe the proposed service/activity/project to be carried out with the
funds requested. If the proposed project is ongoing. specify why the funds are needed to
serve low and moderate-income persons. Discuss the cost-per-beneficiary in relation to
private and other organizations delivering similar services. Please note what proportion of
the proposed budget will support direct services to homeless people. CDSG funds can only
be used for expenditures which directly benefit CDBG-eligible clients.
The project manager will respond to Inquiries for assistance with minor home repairs.
She will also recruit and maintain volunteers who can provide the labor for the home
repairs, without cost. Where parts are needed, the manager will complete the fiscal
process to obtain funding for those materials. The manager will visit the home needing
the repair and also discuss other services the client needs. such as completing forms to
obtain social or health services. The manager will maintain case files and make referrals
to needed resources.
Because Caring Neighbors Is housed in the senior center. the costs to deliver the service
are substantially reduced. Because LSS/SC is a large organization the general costs for
program oversight are shared with many other programs and thus lower than a private
agency would charge.
This program Is not targeted for homeless people, but for people who live In their own
homes and need some assistance In order to remain there.
b. Taraet GrOUD Quantify the number of low- and moderate-income persons/households to be
assisted per service/activity/project. The people served were from low and extremely low
households. and were seniors or people with disabilities.
Caring Neighbors made 109 minor home repairs to households In 2006-2007. Many more
were referred to other agencies who could provide emergency food and health services to
assist them to remain in their homes. There were 277 trips made to help people with access
to doctors. shopping and other necessary services.
c. Outreach Discuss outreach efforts for the proposed service/activity/project.
Lutheran Social Services is well known in the San Diego area and has been offering various
services to low and very low Income people in the area for more than 40 years. The program
Is located in the senior center so the program coordinator Is able to speak directly with staff
from other social service agencies on a face to face basis. The coordinator also participates
In local health and social service fairs and speaks to other area organizations, including
local churches, about Caring Neighbors.
The LSS San Diego area office. which operates this program, also has a large Senior
Companion Program. and so can refer to that program or receive referral from that program
for Caring Neighbor services. In addition. the area office has now relocated to College
Lutheran Church will have the ability to Identify new clients In need through the area
churches. All the Lutheran churches In the San Diego area receive agency newsletters and
have had speakers from LSS/SC speak at their pastors' meetings.

PROJECT NARRATIVE
10. PROJECT NARRATIVE (You may adjust the spacing as necessary. however the body of the
application may not exceed four (4) pages. excluding the performance schedule and budget.)
a. Need Document the need for the project/program. [f the project has been funded before. what
have been the primary accomplishments? According to the Regional Task Force on the
Homeless. there are approximately 330 homeless individuals in the city of Chula Vista and
116 in National City with one reported in Imperial Beach or Coronado. The Interfaith Shelter
Network is the only emergency winter shelter program in the South Bay area. Homeless
individuals face incredible challenges attempting to locate employment and housing if
they have no shelter. The Rotational Shelter Program operated by the Interfaith Shelter
Network in South Bay and six other areas of the San Diego region provides shelter. meals. a
safe place to sleep. showers. transportation. case management. career planning. and
budgeting assistance to those whom it shelters at local congregations. The program is most
effective with the sltuatlonally homeless. those who do not have serious mental health or
substance abuse issues and are willing and able to move toward self-sufficiency during
their maximum eight week stay in our program.
b. Benefit Discuss how the project/program provides benefit to [ow-income persons.
How does the proposed project respond to the City of Chula Vista needs?AII of our shelter
guests have extremely low or no income. They clearly fall within the requirements of CBDG funding
regulations. More than half of the adults sheltered at Network congregations leave with a Job or Income to
which they are entitled. a clear benefit to those on the lowest rung of the economic ladder. Shelter guests
can count on a safe place to sleep. access to showers and meals as well as guidance which helps them
achieve self-sufficiency and respond to opportunities for more long term housing and employment or
other Income that will enable them to obtain housing.
c. Other Resources and Collaboration Identify other potential or actual sources of funds. What fund
raising has the organization done to support the proposed project? What role do volunteers play
in this project? Has your organization developed this project in col[aboration with other groups
offering services? What services offered by other community groups complement the proposed
project? Are the proposed activities duplicative of projects operated by other loca[ pUblic or non-
profit organizations? The Network raises more than $70.000 annually in grants and other donations
in addition to CBDG funding from San Marcos. La Mesa. and Oceanside as well as the CBDG
funding from the county of San Diego HHSA and ESG funding from the county of San Diego HCD.
Regionwide. there are nine other case management agencies that screen and monitor shelter
guests In our other six branches and 51 congregations that provide shelter at their facilities plus an
additional 60 congregations that provide support at the shelter sites. There is no other program like
the ISN Rotational Shelter. The Network also worked with the Alliance for Regional Solutions. a North
County collaborative of homeless service providers. to increase the number of beds available in
that area during the winter months. It succeeded in obtaining significant funding from North county
municipalities as well as the United Way.
d. Oraanizational Cacacltv Summarize the organization's background/programmatic capacity.
Does your organization or proposed service fill a unique niche among clients who are not currently
served. or are under-served? Attach a list of the Board of Directors. The Network Is now in its 22nd
year of providing shelter through the Rotational Shelter Program. In the past 21 years. we have
sheltered more than 7.000 homeless individuals. the majority of whom have left our program for
more permanent housing; the majority of adults have left with a job or income to which they are
entitled. More than 4.000 undupllcated volunteers participate annually. and more than 20.000
donated meals are served to shelter guests. The Network has also operated a transitional housing
program for homeless battered women and children at a 45 bed. 11 unit apartment complex for 11
Part II - Application Part II
years. Largely HUD funded. it has served more than 140 families. almost all of whom left for
permanent housing and benefited from increased education and income. The Network's
Rotational Shelter has been funded by the city of San Diego and the county of San Diego almost
from its inception and has been in compliance with all contract requirements. It is also part of the
annual audit prepared by Sonneberg CPA. using GAPP standards and has never had a negative
finding.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
11. Scope of Services
a. Project DescriDtion Describe the proposed service/activity/project to be carried out with the
funds requested. If the proposed project is ongoing. specify why the funds are needed to
serve low and moderate-income persons. Discuss the cost-per-beneficiary in relation to
private and other organizations delivering similar services. Please note what proportion of
the proposed budget will support direct services to homeless people. CDBG funds can only
be used for expenditures which directly benefit CDBG-eligible clients. $2.900 for essential
services and $6.578 in operational costs will be utilized to provide case management.
transportation. and the development of a rotational shelter program at nine or more South
Bay congregations during the winter months serving 35.50 homeless individuals. $2.900
includes $1,400 In transportation and $1,500 in case management costs for direct services.
Because all of the shelter space and staff are donated at the congregational sites, we have
a very low cost per beneficiary ratio. We are able to leverage 900 unduplicated volunteers
who provide an average five hours per person at $10 per hour or $45,000 in in-kind volunteer
hours. And we provide 4,536 meals valued at $3.33 each for an estimated $15,104 of in.kind
value. If we serve 35 homeless individuals, the cost per guest of CBDG funds will be $270 for a
maximum eight weeks of case managed shelter, not Including the $45,000 value of volunteer
hours or the $15,104 value of donated meals. 31'70 of the total 9,478 will go to support direct
services to homeless people. However, without the support of ISN staff, none of the shelter
sites could be provided with appropriate training, scheduling, and monitoring assistance that
support the congregational volunteers who provide the meals and ovemlght supervision.
b. Taraet GrouD Quantify the number of low- and moderate-income persons/households to be
assisted per service/activity/project. In the last ten years, the South Bay branch has served as
many as 59 and as few as 20 shelter guests during the winter season. How many we serve
depends on how many congregations provide shelter, how long shelter guests stay in the
program, and how successful case management agencies are in screening and referring
new guests to our program. Our guests may be single men or women, couples without
children, or parent(s) with children, all of whom are extremely low income.
c. Outreach Discuss outreach efforts for the proposed service/activity/project. The Network
produces a bimonthly newsletter mailed to 4,500 readers; Network staff participate in
leadership positions in the Regional Task Force on the Homeless, the Regional Continuum of
Care Council, Emergency Resource Group, the San Diego Housing Federation, Housing
California homeless policy committee, and the Metropolitan Area Providers of Social
Services. In addition, Network staff participate in the planning and secure donations of
materials for the annual Womens' Resource Fair as well as Project Homeless Connect. Letters
and e.mails are sent to all local law enforcement and school districts prior to the opening of
the Rotational Shelter Program, Informing them of the appropriate case management

3. Brief Description of Program (CDBG Eligible Activities are available at !i570.200, !i570.201,
570.202, 570.204 and Ineligible Activities are included in 24 CFR Part 570.207).
The Community Access Program (or "CAP) is a recreational program designed for individuals challenged by
severe and profound disabilities. CAP not only offers event planning and coordination, but the extensive
care and transportation services required by these individuals in order to venture out into their community.
4. Where are services provided? (If different from agency location)
Program participants are picked up from their homes by Foundation-owned accessible vehicles and taken to
a variety of locations for activities located throughout San Diego County. The Community Access Program
regularly coordinates with Chula Vista Park and Recreation Department to bring participants to and provide
companionship for Chula Vista Park and Recreation's therapeutic and accessible activities.
5. Please describe your agencies written policies and procedures including how clients are
served, COBG eligibility requirements, compliance with Federal, State, and Local laws?
Written policies include the Community Access Program manual, which documents outing design,
preparation, participant care during outings, and administrative/tracking requirements. Employees are
required to attend sensitivity training, wheelchair tie-down training, and drivers training if applicable.
Community Access Program supervisors and lead employees are First Aid and CPR certified. All employees
receive and are required to sign a written policy clearly outlining Community Access Program Participants'
Rights. All employees are notified - and trained in reporting process - that they are mandated reporters of
signs of participant/client abuse or neglect.
All adult residents of Chula Vista with severe or profound developmental disabilities are eligible to participate
in Community Access Program activities once their completed enrollment materials have been received.
Enrollment applications request specific diagnoses and personal preferences that are used to aid in
determining suitability of specifiC activities for each individual; for instance, a participant who is sensitive to
loud noise would be discouraged from attending an air show at Miramar and encouraged to participate in
another activity.

PROJECT NARRATIVE
10. PROJECT NARRATIVE (You may adjust the spacing as necessary, however the body of the
application may not exceed four (4) pages, excluding the performance schedule and budget.)
a. Need Document the need for the project/program. If the project has been funded before, what
have been the primary accomplishments?
Over 14,000 individuals challenged by developmental disabilities live in San Diego County. All of
these individuais need some levei of supervision; more than half have disabilities in the moderate
to profound range necessitating specialized accommodations to enjoy a recreational activity,
What the rest of us take for granted is unimaginable for some, because their physical and/or
cognitive circumstances prevent them from being independent. To simply take In a Friday night
movie, eat out at a restaurant, or attend a Padres game, is difficult or impossible for someone
challenged by a severe or profound disability. Many of these people seidom have the opportunity
to experience life outside of their home, and are almost never given the opportunity to go on an
outing specifically designed around their special needs. It Is not uncommon to find these
Individuals isolated, depressed, and withdrawn. As is true for all of us, recreation, socialization, and
simply having a good time are directly linked to our physical, mental, and emotional well-being.
The Community Access Program has expanded its outreach and exceeded expectations. We
projected that we would be serving 30 Chula Vista residents in 2007-2008; we are currently
providing recreational activities for 58 severely disabled adult residents of Chula Vista, and
estimate that we will serve 70 in 2008-2009. These quality of life enriching opportunities are not
available through any other agency in San Diego County and therefore would not be available to
Chula Vista residents if the Cheneweth Foundation did not provide these services. Only through
CAP are individuals with severe disabilities able to participate In programs like those offered by the
Chula Vista Department of Park and Recreation since these people require door-to-door
transportation to events and personal assistance throughout the activity. Our participants
thoroughly enjoy these events, but cannot take advantage of them without the aid of the
Community Access Program.
b. Benefit Discuss how the project/program provides benefit to low-income persons.
How does the proposed project respond to the City of Chula Vista needs?
CDBG funding from the City of Chula Vista will help support our efforts to reach more Chula Vista
residents. We are requesting $15,000 to augment outreach efforts and increase our capacity in
order to continue to add to the number of Chula Vista residents enrolled and participating in the
Community Access Program.
No one else in San Diego County offers recreational outings that include accessible, door-to-door
transportation and a personai companion open to any individuals with disabilities who wish to
participate. By law, group homes are oniy required to take residents out into their community once
each quarter, While many caregivers may provide excellent care within the home, the reality is
that many of them choose only to meet that minimal requirement due to limited staffing resources
and the level of effort invoived to make outings happen safely for severeiy disabled Individuals.
We can empathize with the reasons outings into community may be so infrequent, but we also
know that these individuals deserve better, and are worthy of being provided the opportunities the
rest of us enjoy on any given weekend, Many of our other participants remain at home with elderiy
parents who are no longer able to take their disabled adult child out. We embrace these
opportunities to take both parent and child on outings. The Community Access Program has
Part II - Application Part II
Page 6 of 28
changed the lives of hundreds of severely disabled San Diego County residents, but there are
many more people we would like to reach.
c. Other Resources and Collaboration Identify other potential or actual sources of funds. What fund
raising has the organization done to support the proposed project? What role do volunteers piay
in this project? Has your organization developed this project in collaboration with other groups
offering seNices? What seNices offered by other community groups complement the proposed
project? Are the proposed activities duplicative of projects operated by other local public or non-
profit organizations?
The organization does extensive fundraising to support the Community Access Program. We have
an annual fall fundraiser that nets $18,000-$25,000 each year. We send annual requests for support
and an annual newsletter to our supporters. Volunteers are critical as they accompany our staff on
nearly every outing and enable us to take more participants on activities as, with supeNision, and
training, they are able to provide the one-to-one companionship that our participants need. We
currently have regular volunteers from Volunteer San Diego, Quaicomm employees, and University
of Phoenix interns. The Community Access Program works closely with the Chuia Vista Department
of Parks and Recreation to attend appropriate accessible/ therapeutics activities. We work with
other agencies, adult residential facilities and adult day programs including San Diego Regional
Center for the Developmental Disabied, ARC of San Diego, Friendship Homes, Valesco Homes,
and Home of Guiding Hands to enroll their residents and clients in the Community Access Program
and to facilitate participation. There are no other programs that provide the personalized supports
and companionship that individuals with severe disabilities require to take advantage of
recreational outings and activities. We work closely with area agencies seNing the same
popuiation In order to provide life-enriching seNices to their clients and residents.
d. Oraanizational Caoacitv Summarize the organization's background/programmatic capacity.
Does your organization or proposed seNice fill a unique niche among clients who are not currently
seNed, or are under-seNed? Attach a list of the Board of Directors.

Although there are various recreational programs in San Diego County for individuals with
disabilities. no program outside of the Community Access Program (or 'CAP") exists for individuals
whose disabilities are in the severe or profound range. While students with disabilities are able to
participate in occasional field trips and outings with their peers, once these individuals finish high
school there are no other programs that provide the services CAP does. Traditional recreational
programs do not have the resources necessary to assist the severely disabled with the specialized
accommodations they require in order to participate. In order to include individuals with severe
disabilities in community activities, one-on-one companionship, personal care. and door-to-door
accessible transportation are all necessary.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
11. Scope of Services
a. Proiect Descriotion Describe the proposed service/activity/project to be carried out with the
funds requested. If the proposed project is ongoing, specify why the funds are needed to serve
iow and moderate-income persons. Discuss the cost-per-beneficiary in relation to private and
other organizations delivering similar services. Please note what proportion of the proposed
budget wili support direct services to homeless people. CDBG funds can only be used for
expenditures which directiy benefit CDBG-ellgible clients.
The COMMUNITY ACCESS PROGRAM offers supportive recreational activities for San Diego County
residents chailenged by severe or profound physical and/or cognitive disabilities, Weekend
excursions are provided that are fun. meaningful. and safe, CAP's hallmark is its
Individualized specialized support. A one-to-one companion accompanies any participant
who needs assistance with wheeichair mobility. meais. and personal needs. Wheeichair
accessible transportation service is provided, including door-to-door pickup and return. CAP
provides region-specific excursions to accommodate participants who live in the city of San
Diego. South County. North County. and East County). At least two activities per month are
offered for each geographical area. Every Saturday and Sunday CAP staff. volunteers. and
vehicles depart from the program's National City site and travel to the geographical region
designated for that particular activity. Participants receive transportation. supervision and
Part II - Application Part II
Page 8 of 28
professional care, as well as socialization and companionship. These excursions contribute
tremendously to participants' sense of self-worth and belonging. About 800 recreational
opportunities are offered to COMMUNITY ACCESS PROGRAM participants each year. Over the
past few years CAP participants have learned about sea creatures "backstage" at
SeaWorld, viewed San Diego County from the sky in a Hot Air Balloon, played at Disneyland.
and danced to the music of Hope University's "Hi Hopes" (talented musicians challenged by
developmental disabilities).
On each outing, CAP staff, volunteers, and vehicles travel from the Cheneweth
Foundation to the region designated for that particular outing. Participants who use
wheelchairs or who cannot access a local boarding site are provided door-to-door,
wheeichair accessible transportation. Participants whose disabilities are less severe, who can
conveniently meet at the regional boarding site, will have round-trip transportation to and
from the outing. The COMMUNITY ACCESS PROGRAM makes every effort to accommodate all its
participants and will always do whatever it takes to see that no one is overlooked or left
behind. Although there are various recreational programs in San Diego County for individuals
with disabiiities, no program outside of the Community Access Program (or "CAP") exists for
individuals whose disabilities are in the severe or profound range. While students with
disabilities are able to participate in occasional field trips and outings with their peers, once
these individuals finish high school there are no other programs that provide the services CAP
does. Traditional recreational programs do not have the resources necessary to assist the
severely disabled with the specialized accommodations they require in order to participate.
In order to include individuals with severe disabilities in community activities, one-on-one
companionship, personal care, and door-to-door accessibie transportation are all necessary.
b. Target GrouD Quantify the number of low- and moderate-income persons/households to be
assisted per service/activity/project.
We continue to expand our services to more severely developmentally disabled residents of
Chula Vista, and the number of activities provided for these individuals. In 2005-2006 we had
30 participants from Chula Vista. This year we have 58 Chula Vista participants, 180
recreational activity slots. We continue to expand our efforts to serve Chula Vista residents
and anticipate providing over 200 recreational opportunities and serving at least 70 Chula
Vista residents in 2008-2009. Each outing serves 8 to 15 participants. All of these individuals
are extremeiy iow income as the extent of their disabilities prevents them from being able to
work a traditional job.
c. Outreach Discuss outreach efforts for the proposed service/activity/project.
Making other organizations and individuals aware of its services. is a high priority of the

PROJECT NARRATIVE
10. PROJECT NARRATIVE (You may adjust the spacing as necessary, however the body ot the
application may not exceed four (4) pages, excluding the performance schedule and budget.)
a. Need Document the need for the project/program. If the project has been funded before, what
have been the primary accomplishments? Previous years expenses have been vital
equipment in the skilled nursing area, wonderer prevention watches, hyperbaric 02
chamber, Sling Lifters, and other needed equipment.
This year, goal is to provide additional equipment deemed essential by the nursing staff, and
desired by the residents (and not provided by the state). Focus for Chula Vista CDBG grant
is for rehab equipment to strengthen muscles of wheelchair bound residents via the listed
Hi-Lo Tilt Table, and Rickshaw Exerciser.
These residents are all Chula Vista Citizens, and nearly all live below the defined poverty level.
Essentially, they are military veterans dependent on the state to provide care. "Quality
Care" is accomplished via augmentation of needed equipment from community,
including CDBG grants.
Listed equipment exceeds amount of grant request. and will be "leveraged" from other
resources. Foundation Board members receive no compensation of any kind, therefore all
received funds directly benefits veterans living at the Veterans Home.
Rehab Equipment considered essential for rehab of muscles for wheelchair residents (skilled
nursing) .
b. Benefit Discuss how the project/program provides benefit to low-income persons.
How does the proposed project respond to the City of Chula Vista needs?
The vast majority of residents are low-income, and the CDBG grant would directly benefit
them as noted in previous paragraph. The Foundation provides needed equipment as a Public Service,
and for Rehabilitation activities.
c. Other Resources and Collaboration Identify other potential or actual sources of funds. What
fund raising has the organization done to support the proposed project? What role do volunteers
play in this project? Has your organization developed this project in collaboration with other
groups offering services? What services offered by other community groups complement the
proposed project? Are the proposed activities duplicative of projects operated by other local
public or non-profit organizations? Foundation uses a variety of grants, Veterans Service
Organizations (VSO's), and communities to offer "Quality of Life" and essential equipment for
veterans at the Home. To fund, the $30,000 goal for the skilled nursing area and rehab
equipment. the Foundation will have requests (as in years past with the County of San Diego, the
City of Coronado, the Navy Nurse Corps, the Navy Officers Spouse Club, and VSO's, such as
AMVETS, FRA, VFW, DAV, etc). two Fundraisers (Golf tourney, and VFW Walk) every year also
benefit Quality of Life, Foundation also applies for grants with CFC (United Way for military and
goyt employees, CECO, Chula Vista Cares, and other charitable organizations). All Board
members are volunteers. In addition, there are volunteers at the Veterans Home providing
assistance to the nursing staff, with focus in the skilled nursing area. There is no duplication of
grants, groups or volunteers.
In addition to these needed equipment provisions, the Foundation also provides "Quality of Life" items,
including WIFI and Computer Equipment, Training, Assists in Golden Games, supports woodworking
shop and craft shop from other resources. The Foundation also collaborates with VSO's in sponsoring the
annual Holiday Party, and various BBQ's through the year and underwritten by VSO's, Fleet Week, and
other sponsors and supporters of V eterans, such as the San Diego Padres.

d. Oraanizational CaDacitv Summarize the organization's background/programmatic capacity.
Does your organization or proposed service fill a unique niche among clients who are not
currently served, or are under-served? Attach a list of the Board of Directors. An attached 1151 of
the Board of Directors is attached. The Foundation does fulfill a unique niche, and is considered
the model for other Veterans' Homes to have "outside support' such as enjoyed by Chula Vista.
The main reasons are zero overhead, and success with the community in bringing them into
involvement with the Veterans Home. In addition, the Foundation also provides Volunteer Income
Tax Assistance (VITA) for the residents, again, at no charge.

B. If the organization has not had a financial audit, please explain the reason. The Foundation
uses the services of the CEO of the North Island Financial Credit Union. He is a CPA, and well
qualified to author the Treasurers report. He, and his "auditors" did conduct an audit of the
Foundation two years ago. It was determined that due to the relative simplicity of the
Foundation in its financial stnucture (no overhead, revenue flow through, etcO, that an audit was
not required. The Foundation normally receives around $40,000Iyear and no money is used for
administrative or overhead purposes. All Board members review financial records quarterly.

$1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate for personal injury and
property damage? Yes 0 No [gJ
D. Does the agency certify that no public funds will be used for lobbying? Yes [gJ No 0
Part II - Application Part II
E. Has the agency previously administered CDBG funds?: Yes ~ No 0
If yes, please describe the agency's experience with CDBG funds: The Foundation does not
carry insurance, nor is required to, as all equipment received is essentially "owned" by the state of
Califomia. The Veterans Home has adequate general liability insurance.
The Foundation has received, and administered CDBG funds since the Veterans Home was dedicated
in May of 2000. All received revenue directly benefits the residents at the Veterans Home. Equipment
purchased with CDBG funds has consistently been in the skilled nursing area or the rehab areas of the
Home. Once approved, the Foundation withdraws funds, pays for the approved equipment, submits
receipts, and receives approved amount of CDBG funds. This procedure is very simple and
straightforward.

application may not exceed four (4) pages, excluding the performance schedule and budget.)
a. Need Document the need for the project/program. If the project has been funded before, what
have been the primary accomplishments?
Chula Vista is one of San Diego County's most ethnically and culturally diverse communities. The city
is less than ten miles from the US/Mexican Border. The Otay area is located in the southwest portion of Chula
Vista. Castle Park Middle School has a total enrollment of 1203 students. The school community is
compromised of a total enrollment of 593 students and is comprised of 85 percent Latino students, 8 percent
Anglo students, 4 percent African American students, 1 percent Asian students, and 2 percent other students. In
addition, 65% of our students are English Language Learners and 85% of our students are eligible for free or
reduced lunch.
Many children have both parents in the household working or are from single parent families. The need
for safe and affordable after school programs is of primary importance to the parents in the community as well
as for the overall health and nutrition of the families. This need is compounded by the basic economic
challenges faced by families of which are primarily low-income ethnic individuals. There are a large number of
children and families living in apartment and mobile homes with little park or recreation space. There are
limited fun and quality recreational and educational experiences after school. Otay Recreation Center is the
only recreational facility with a fitness center that provides programs for youth in the southwestern part of the
City of Chula Vista.
In addition the Chula Vista Police Department began tracking police calls for service (CFS) with a gang
element midway through 2004. Between May 30, 2004, and October 31, 2007, there were 991 gang-related CFS
within a I-mile buffer around the Lorna Verde Recreation Center, Otay Recreation Center and Castle Park
Middle School. These 991 CFS accounted for more than 25% of all gang CFS citywide during this time period.
In addition, gang CFS in the I-mile area surrounding the school and recreation centers increased 82% from 2005
to 2006 (the only years with full data available at this time).Between November 2003 and October 2007, 113
girls between the ages of 11 and 13 were involved in crime incidents in the I-mile buffer area, either as victims
or suspects. The number of girls victimized in crime incidents increased 45% between 2004 and 2006. Finally,
between November 2003 and October 2007, police made 22 separate arrests of 12- and 13-year-old girls [no 11-
year-olds] within the I-mile buffer around the school and recreation centers.
b. Benefit Discuss how the project/program provides benefit to low-income persons.
How does the proposed project respond to the City of Chula Vista needs?
The program will operate at Otay Recreation Center within the City of Chula Vista. The program site
will operate Monday through Friday after school at Otay Recreation Center. The program will operate for 38
weeks during the school year, 5 days a week for 2.5 hours each day and 3.5 hours on Fridays. The program will
offer scheduled and supervised activities designed to be educational and healthful. Activities are designed to
build social skills and sportsmanship and will include: sports tournaments, arts and crafts, board games, guest

raising has the organization done to support the proposed project? What role do volunteers play
in this project? Has your organization developed this project in collaboration with other groups
offering services? What services offered by other community groups complement the proposed
project? Are the proposed activities duplicative of projects operated by other local public or non-
profit organizations?
The program will have fundraising activities to support the program and provide for future funding needs
with activities like community car washes. Weare always looking to a variety of funders and donor sources for
support, such as local business. We have the largest number of volunteers for our department and will continue
to have volunteers support the program. The city has strong network collaboration with community providers
and continues to offer programs and services to augment and enhance existing services. The school in
collaboration with the City also offers an after school program but it is academic in nature and generally has low
achieving students referred to the program.

PROJECT NARRATIVE
10. PROJECT NARRATIVE (You may adjust the spacing as necessary, however the body of fhe
application may nof exceed four (4) pages, excluding the performance schedule and budget.)
a. Need Document the need for the project/program. If the project has been funded before. what
have been the primary accomplishments?
Coordination of child care resources in order to enhance the quality and availability of child care to the low income
families of the community (The community is in need of training and a hub for childcare and cbild development needs).
The target population is low-income children and the licensed/unlicensed childcare providers who provide care in
western Chula Vista. As of December 2007, there are 82 large family daycare providers, 58 child care centers and 28
school age centers in the City of Chula Vista; along with approximately 300 small family licensed providers that benefit
from the services provided by this position. In support of the City of Chula Vista's Child care element; this position will
encourage the provision of quality childcare that is available for all families who need it, regardless of income.
There were 199 total people trained in 2006-2007. Through individual contacts, the Child care Coordinator was able to
link other individuals, in addition to the aforementioned 199 people trained, to early childhood education resources and
information. There were a total of 850 children and their families who received child care-related resources and
information in an effort to increase community awareness on the importance of children's health and safety.
There were also 8 Large Family Daycare (LFD) license applications submitted to the City of Chula Vista Planning
Department. In an effort to increase the number of quality LFD providers in Chula Vista, the Child Care Coordinator
contacted and assisted these individuals throughout the application process.
The need for a Child Care Coordinator is an integral component in increasing the quality of child care in the City of
Chula Vista. The Child Care Coordinator will be utilized as a liaison between child care providers and information and
resources in the city; in an effort to promote a best practices philosophy among providers. The Child Care Coordinator
will collaborate with city departments and other child care-related agencies to promote quality programs to ensure
providers are well informed of the resources and information necessary to maintain quality child care businesses.
In addition, during recent emergency situation in Chula Vista due to massive fires in the County, the lack of an
emergency preparedness plan to address child care needs was hugely apparent. The Child Care Coordinator will work
closely with the Child Care Commission to develop a comprehensive Emergency Preparedness Plan for Chula Vista
Child Care Providers.
b. Benefit Discuss how the project/program provides benefit to low-income persons.
How does the proposed project respond to the City of Chula Vista needs?
Increase safe, affordable, good quality child care and early childhood experiences available and accessible in low-income
areas of the community. This will be the seventh consecutive year of the project that is designed to train child care
providers and/or individuals in the early childhood education field by bringing opportunities to western Chula Vista
through agency collaboration.
This program will focus on serving cultura1ly diverse populations with a primary goal to benefit children from low-
income families. Child care providers will benefit by obtaining the necessary tools to become self-sufficient and
maintain a quality child care business. Providing quality child care will have a significant economic impact in the City of
Chula Vista. This can be evident by the number of the non-Chula Vista residents who work in Chula Vista and seek child
care in the city.
The Child Care Coordinator will also assist in the development of a comprehensive Emergency Preparedness Plan that
will assist the City of Chula Vista in its efforts for coordinated emergency preparedness.

to encourage safe and affordable, good quality childcare that is available and accessible to all economic segments of the
community. The Childcare Coordinator works with the City ofChula Vista Planning Department to facilitate the process
for large family daycare homes. The Child Care Coordinator works with the YMCA CRS (Childcare Resource Service)

Chula Vista. These include small family daycare providers, large family daycare providers and center-based childcare.

PROJECT NARRATIVE
10. PROJECT NARRATIVE (You may adjust the spacing as necessary, however the body of the
application may not exceed four (4) pages, excluding the performance schedule and budget.)
a. Need Document the need for the project/program. If the project has been funded before, what
have been the primary accomplishments?
The need for the KidCare Express III Mobile Medical Unit is well documented. San Diego County, according
to a 2006 report by the Insure the Uninsured Project, has one of the highest uninsured rates in the country -
roughly 21 %, or over 550,000 of the non-elderly population was uninsured and identified the emergency room
as their main source of healthcare in 2005. The social and financial costs associated with this problem are
staggering. The San Diego healthcare system could potentially save approximately $37 million a year if
patients who went to the emergency room for non-emergent or primary care-treatable conditions accessed a
primary care setting instead. The lack of access to healthcare also negatively impacts educational
performance. A recent study by Californians for Healthy Kids found that children with insurance experience a
68% improvement in attention in class and in keeping up with school activities.
The MMU Program's initial relationships with elementary schools came about because student absenteeism
due to illness was a major concern school officials were grappling with. Thousands of children were
excessively absent from school, resulting in diminished academic learning and achievement. Many children
were going to hospital emergency rooms for treatable and preventable conditions/diseases rather than being
treated by primary care physicians. These non-emergency visits utilize criticai care resources that would
otherwise be made available for true emergencies. School nurses from the Chula Vista Elementary School
District have provided many anecdotes to validate these stories of need, specific to the South Bay region.
These include the school-age child unnecessarily kept at home because of a disability; regular calls made to
911 for uncontrolled asthma; a little girl with a cleft lip whose family lives in a chicken coop; the 38-pound third-
grade girl whose father knew she had diabetes but refused to access care for her, believing that the treatment
caused blindness; and the two kids in one week who needed stitches and who neither got care nor simple
wound cleaning from their mother, because she didn't understand the basic causality of infection (Interviews,
CVESD health staff, November 2006). The primary accomplishment of the KidCare Express III is the
continued provision of health care services over the course of time, with 1,791 patients served in 2006/2007
and 1,800 patients anticipated to be served in 2007/2008.
b. Benefit Discuss how the project/program provides benefit to low-income persons.
How does the proposed project respond to the City of Chula Vista needs?
The KidCare Express III MMU is designed to address the significant need for access to affordable healthcare
services for Chula Vista residents. The benefits of the KidCare Express III are best demonstrated through the
success stories of children who have received needed health and anCillary support services. Below are two of the
many patient stories.
Often, children seen at school sites are behind in both required immunizations and routine physicals. For many of
these children, KidCare Express is the only 'vehicle' to access these healthcare services that most of us consider
basic and routine. But, for one child seen at one elementary school, the routine physical examination revealed
health problems that had a significant impact on his ability to function everyday and to be successful in school.
During 5-year-old Juan's CHOP exam, the provider recognized that Juan had impaired hearing and vision,
limitations that had not been identified in his classroom setting. Juan was immediately linked with FHCSD's early
childhood intervention, speech and hearing, and optometry services. The outcome was that Juan now had his own
special pair of glasses, a hearing aide, and continues to do much better in his school work.
Sometimes, the KidCare Express staff is in a position to identify children who have been the victims of child abuse
and/or neglect. One such child was 4-year-old Gabriela, who was staying at the family shelter with her 19-year-old
father. Staff noted that Gabriela was small for her age, had not reached several expected developmental
milestones and was covered with a rash. Her father shared that he had recently assumed care of Gabriela while
her mother was in jail. He admitted feeling overwhelmed and inadequate in his new parentai role and was eager for

assistance. After medically tending to Gabriela's rash, KidCare Express III staff contacted Child Protective Services
and arranged for her and her father to meet with a caseworker who was able provide ongoing supportive and
enabling services.
c. Other Resources and Collaboration Identify other potential or actual sources of funds. What fund
raising has the organization done to support the proposed project? What role do volunteers play
in this project? Has your organization developed this project in collaboration with other groups
offering services? What services offered by other community groups complement the proposed
project? Are the proposed activities duplicative of projects operated by other local public or non-
profit organizations?
Current committed funding sources for the KidCare Express III MMU include Blue Cross of California, $495;
Boys & Girls Foundation, $2,475; The California Endowment, $6,600; CW Cares for Kids, $3,300; Hitachi
Foundation, $1,650; Lions Club of San Diego, $330; Molina Healthcare of California, $2,475; Nordstrom,
$1,650, QUALCOMM, $4,950 and San Ysidro High School, $168. A grant request for $8,330 is pending with
the Rancho Santa Fe Circle of Giving. FHCSO employs multiple approaches to fundraising for the KidCare
Express III, including individual and corporate donation solicitation, as well as writing for and securing
foundation grants. The majority of funding for the KidCare Express III comes from third party payor sources
(Medi-Cal, Healthy Families, others).
The KidCare Express III does not utilize volunteers for the provision of its services, however, works closely
with many local health and social service organizations, including the Chula Vista School District and school
nurses and the Chula Vista Community Collaborative, as partners in the promotion and coordination of
services. The KidCare Express III is the only mobile medical unit providing health services in the Chula Vista
Elementary School District, therefore the scope of service is not duplicative of other local projects.
d. OrClanizational CaDacitv Summarize the organization's baCkground/programmatic capacity.
Does your organization or proposed service fill a unique niche among clients who are not currently
served, or are under-served? Attach a list of the Board of Directors.
Family Health Centers of San Diego is a private, nonprofit community health center founded as a community
clinic in 1970. From this simple beginning, the organization has grown tremendously over the past 37 years,
from one clinic site in Barrio Logan to a comprehensive health center system serving, in 2006, approximately
107,000 individuals at 24 service sites throughout San Diego. Without the services FHCSD provides, patients'
access to affordable health care would be greatly diminished. Over 90% of FHCSO's patients for whom
income is determined live at or below 200% of the federal poverty level (FPL) and 71 % live below 100% FPL.
Roughly 65% of the patients served in 2006 were uninsured.
As the largest community health center organization in the county, FHCSD provides an impressive array of
services to its patients. These services are delivered in a culturally sensitive and linguistically appropriate
manner by over 700 dedicated staff members. Basic primary care services include: adult medicine; pediatrics;
women's health; dentistry; optometry/ophthalmology; laboratory; and pharmacy. FHCSD also provides many
specialty services including: mental healthcare; health education; chronic disease care; audiology;
otolaryngology (ENT); podiatry; speech therapy; physical therapy (ages 0-3); and adolescent services.
Additionally, the organization operates several specialized programs that target some of the most vulnerable
members of our community. The agency is the largest provider of school-based primary and mental health
services in San Diego County, serving over 60 schools, is the largest comprehensive HIV/AIOS services
system in San Diego, and is also the lead agency for the Health Care for the Homeless program in the San
Diego region.

SCOPE OF SERVICES
11. Scope of Services
a. Proiect Description Describe the proposed service/activity/project to be carried out with the
funds requested. If the proposed project is ongoing. specify why the funds are needed to
serve low and moderate-income persons. Discuss the cost-per-beneficiary in relation to
private and other organizations delivering simiiar services. Please note what proportion of
the proposed budget will support direct services to homeless people. CDBG funds can only
be used for expenditures which directly benefit CDBG-eligible clients.
Chula Vista CDBG funding for $30,000 will help the KidCare Express III MMU Program continue to
provide health services to medically underserved children, high-risk youth and adults in collaboration
with local schools, community centers, social service agencies, public housing complexes and homeless
shelters. By removing financial, transportation, language and cultural barriers to care, KidCare Express
III ensures that low-income Chula Vista residents can receive the healthcare they need, when and where
they need it.
KidCare Express III MMU is in operation approximately 32 hours each week, providing care in South Bay
region of San Diego. The bus-sized unit is a fully licensed medical clinic staffed with a medical provider,
nursing support staff, and a driver/patient service representative. The unit is 40 feet long and has two
private exam rooms, a nursing station/triage area and a restroom inside. Since the program's 1998
inception, the KidCare Express MMUs have provided roughly 50,000 patient visits at over 100 school
and community sites throughout San Diego. Approximately 5% of the MMU III budget is utilized for
homeless individuals. Each of the three Mobile Medical Units are licensed by the California Department
of Health Services as stand-alone ciinics, certified by the Children's Health and Disability Prevention
Program, and credentialed by five Medi-Cal managed care plans.
Although KidCare Express III is one of our most popular and needed services, it is also one of the most
expensive to operate. However, patients are seen on the MMU for a limited cost of up to $20 per visit.
This is an extremely low cost for the level of primary health care, lab and follow-up services provided.
The cost-per beneficiary is even lower at $15.79 per patient, which for many with health insurance is the
cost of their co-pay, not their entire visit, so the project is incredibly cost efficient. The sources of steady
funding are public health insurance programs and government grants, which subsidize the provision of
these services. Unfortunately, budget cuts over the years have systematically reduced the availability of
government funding for public healthcare programs.
b. Taraet Group Quantify the number of low- and moderate-income persons/households to be
assisted per service/activity/project.
For fiscal year July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2009, it is anticipated that a total of 2,280 health care visits will
be provided to 1,900 unduplicated patients through the KidCare Express III MMU.
Demographics for patients seen through the mobile medical units are projected as follows:
Ethnicity: Eighty percent of the patients were Hispanic; 15% were non-Hispanic; 5% reported their
ethnicity as 'other' or 'unknown. Race: Forty six percent identified as White; 35% as multi-racial; 10%
other, declined or unknown; 7%, African-American; and 2% identified themselves as Asian/Pacific
Islander.
Age: Approximately 17% of those served are between 0 and 5 years old; 38% are 6 to 11 years old;
11 % are between 12 and 17 years old, and 34% are 18 years and older.
Part 11- Application Part II
Page 8 of 27

Income: Over 70% of patients seen on the MMU live at 100% of the Federal poverty level (FPL); 17%
were between 100 and 200% of the FPL, and 4% were over 200%. Income information is not captured
for roughly 7% of those seen. These figures meet the CDBG guidelines for service to low or moderate
income individuals.
c. Outreach Discuss outreach efforts for the proposed service/activity/project.
KidCare Express reaches its target population through active outreach, established partnerships and a
solid reputation in the community. The KidCare Express III staff work closely with the Chula Vista
Elementary School District staff, with particular reference to the school nurses, to identify children in
need of healthcare services. FHCSD works with sponsoring agencies or locations, existing partners and
non-school sites to identify new children, youth, adults, residents and potential clients in need of primary
healthcare services. Hours and schedules can be adjusted as necessary to accommodate patient need.
In addition, FHCSD actively works to identify new partners and locations through outreach so that
improved access to care can be expanded. As service demands increase and funding becomes
available, the number of hours and days that the MMUs are in operation will concurrently increase.

Project Hand maintains three food pantries, which provide basic food staples and other hygiene
items to people who are in need of them and who cannot afford to buy them, due to lack of
funds. The food is obtained through donations from central food banks, surplus food items,
donations from grocery stores and restaurants and donations from private individuals and
churches. Volunteers help to pick up the food and bring it to the food pantries.
The food is stored on shelves and in a freezer and refrigerators. Occasionally, seasonally fresh
food is available from local gardeners who volunteer to grow and bring excess vegetables to the
pantry. Such things as diapers and baby food are also available.
People in need come directly to one of the three food pantries operated by Lutheran Social
Services in the San Diego area. The program coordinator, with the assistance of trained
volunteers, assesses the individual or family's needs for emergency assistance and gives them
food and hygiene articles to help meet their needs. Records are kept which validate their needs
and their residence, and their eligibility for CDBG funding.

Section D - Project Information
Community Needs: Please describe the unmet community need this project proposes to
meet. Refer to the instructions.
This project will address the unmet community need of access to affordable healthcare for
uninsured, low income families. The County of San Diego's recent study of the health care safety
net found that the South Bay region will experience the greatest population growth rate, highest
proportion of Latinos, among the highest rates of uninsured persons and Medi-Cal beneficiaries,
greatest physician shortfall, and among the lowest rates of residents with employer-based
insurance among all County regions over the next 25 years. In order to meet the community's
growing healthcare need, the study suggested that San Diego County would need to add a
minimum of 21 clinics and 1,500 physicians by 2025: a 24.1 % increase in community health center
capacity. (all figs. San Diego Co. Heaffhcare Safety Net Study: Study Core Rept., Abaris Group,
9/18/06).
Proposed Project to Meet Community Needs: How will your agency use these grant
monies to address the unmet community needs described above?
In September of 2007, Family Health Centers ot San Diego (FHCSD) received a competitive
federal grant to establish and operate a new community health center in Chula Vista. In
December of 2007, FHCSD purchased a building for the clinic located at 251 Landis Avenue.
Tenant improvements will begin in January and the new Chula Vista Family Health Center will
open by mid-spring. Services to be provided within the first two years of operation will include:
general primary medical care; urgent medical care; family planning services; HIV testing
services: immunizations: OB/GYN care; TB therapy: mental health services, including counseling;
hearing screening; nutrition services; vision screening; referral for comprehensive oral health
care; case management; eligibility assistance: health education; and translation and
transportation assistance.
FHCSD anticipates that 2.400 unduplicated persons will be served in the clinic's first year of
operation, increasing to approximately 4,800 persons in the third year of operation. The majority
of Chula Vista Family Health Center's patients will quality for free or low-cost services based on
their income, family size and medical condition. No sick person will be turned away due to
inability to pay.
FHCSD is proud to have invested significant organization resources and leveraged $650,000 in
annual tederal funding for uninsured families in the City of Chula Vista. However, as the tederal
grant only covers a small portion of the tenant improvement costs, FHCSD is requesting a modest
$30,000 one-time CDBG grant to purchase and install a new HV AC system in the clinic. The
existing HV AC system does not adequately heat or cool the building and must be replaced.

Section 0 - Project Information
Community Needs: Please describe the unmet community need this project
proposes to meet. Refer to the instructions.
The General Unit of the Code Enforcement Section historically has been reactive in that
they have not had the time/resources needed to effectively address blight on a
proactive basis. Reactionary code enforcement does little to stabilize neighborhoods
because it is narrow in scope. The establishment of a Community Preservation Program
has allowed the opportunity to make a lasting impact on neighborhoods both residential
and commercial. These proactive sweeps have helped establish a line of
communication between Code Enforcement and the community. previously lacking in
the section. If Code Enforcement does not receive the funds requested, we will be
dependant on general fund monies. Without the requested funding, Code Enforcement
will be required to cut back services City-wide including those within low and moderate-
income areas. This will inhibit the revitalization of blighted neighborhoods and allow
further deterioration. The Department of Planning and Building's ability to perform much
needed code enforcement activities will not meet the community's expectations.
Proposed Project to Meet Community Needs: How will your agency use these
grant monies to address the unmet community needs described above?
The target population consists of the people living and working in the low- and
moderate-income areas of western Chula Vista. These clients often live in and around
substandard conditions that are outside of their control. As the blight in the area
increases, the level of hope or a better place to live and work decreases for the
population that is destined to stay in these neighborhoods due to socio-economic
conditions. Many of these homes are rentals with absentee landlords who are unaware
of the conditions on their properties and the overall affect of their properties on the
surrounding neighborhood. Code Enforcement will use the CDBG funding to help
improve the lives of those living and working in the area through education,
enforcement and abatement as needed.
The primary goals of the Community Preservation Program are to:
1. Proactively inspect properties in the Low/Moderate census track areas previously
identified on a periodic basis to insure that they meet the minimum standards set
forth in the Chula Vista Municipal Code.
2. Educate both property and business owners as to the minimum standard set forth
in the Chula Vista Municipal Code through neighborhood meetings as well as
Notices of Violation.
3. To bring into compliance any properties found to be in violation of the Chula Vista
Municipal Code.
4. Provide assistance with the removal of trash, junk and debris through organized
block efforts by providing dumpster and labor services.
5. Provide assistance with beautification by coordinating landscape and
veaetation enhancement efforts with the Center for Sustainable Enerav.

11. Explain how your project addresses community and/or general City needs:
The General Unit of the Code Enforcement Section historically has been reactive in that

including those within low and moderate-income areas. This will inhibit the revitalization
of blighted neighborhoods and allow further deterioration. The Department of Planning

meet the community's expectations.
12. List City ot Chula Vista or Master Plan objectives your project accomplishes:
Increase quality ot life by identifying and addressing substandard conditions and blight.
13. Describe the deteriorating or deteriorated areas your project addresses:
This program aims to revitalize the Castle Park neighborhood in Western Chula Vista,
extending from Fourth Ave from Orange north to L St. L St east to Hilitop. Hilitop south to
East Naples. East Naples east to the 805 Freeway. 805 Freeway south to the SDG&E
easement. SDG&E easement southwest to Orange. Orange west to Fourth Ave. The
target population consists of the people living and working in the low and moderate-
income areas of the Castle Park neighborhood and Western Chula Vista. These clients
often live in and around substandard conditions outside of their control. As the blight in
the neighborhood increases, the level of hope for a better piace to live and work
decreases and they become victims of the surrounding socio-economic condition.
Many of the homes in these neighborhoods are rentals with absentee landlords who are
unaware of the conditions of their properties and the overall affect they are having on
the neighborhoods. These CDSG funds will allow Code Enforcement to aid in improving
the lives of those living in the area through education, enforcement and abatement as
needed.

If the CDBG funds requested are not awarded the difference will have to be made up by the
general fund. As the City's budget tightens fewer general fund dollars are avaiiable and the
lack of sufficient funds may jeopardize the program. If so the Community Preservation Program
wili be forced to scale back serving fewer low-moderate neighborhoods and individuals,
leaving them at risk of an increased decline of conditions within their neighborhoods and
businesses.

to motivate and gain compliance. If compliance is not gained the City may abate the violations/
conditions and charge the property owner. In addition, the Code Enforcement Officers will act as
the communication conduits to relay concerns of areo residents to the appropriate departments
throughout the City, and educate the public by attending community meetings and distributing
educational materials. Blighted conditions within low and moderate income areas will gradually be
reduced. Pride of ownership will return to the neighborhood and members of the surrounding area
will also improve and maintain their homes and businesses without being prodded by the city.

Subject: 380 D st - abatement of SWOP and of lead paint contaminabon
Doug, this is a "heads-up" on the CE case at 380 D St. The abatement work progress has stalled. Normally, our
solution would be to have the owner board and secure the property and record the violations. However, on this
property there is a significant portion of the work that involves lead paint abatement. If not remediated, the paint will
continue to peel off the building and poison the soil of this property and of the homes and apartments abutting it.
Therefore, I am asking for permission to start the first steps in the process of abatement by the City. The least
expensive abatement for the City to pursue consists of removing the four illegal and substandard rear apartments,
removing/repairing the house and garage in front, removing 4 inches or more of lead contaminated soil and capping
the site with gravel or other material. The work will have to be performed by qualified lead abatement contractors and
will have to be cleared by a lead abatement specialist.
With your approval, I will begin the process of getting qualified bids for the work. Then we will have a basis for
requesting abatement funds from City Council. Reimbursement for this expenditure will most likely be a Special
Assessment (tax) lien on the property.
FYI - we have already assessed civil penalties of $100,000.00, FCR of $8,000.00, the NOV has been recorded, and a
permit for repairs (but not lead paint abatement) has been issued but has had no inspections.

10. PROJECT NARRATIVE (You may adjust the spacing as necessary, however the body of the
application may not exceed four (4) pages, excluding the performance schedule and budge!.)
a. Need Document the need for the project/program. If the project has been funded before, what have
been the primary accomplishments?
It is estimated that there are 6,968 homeless individuals and only 3,800 year-round emergency
and transitional shelter beds available to them in San Diego County. It is therefore very important
for all those involved to be provided with accurate information and assistance while working
together to efficiently and effectively deal with our homeless problem at hand. Those associated
with homelessness require independent third party homeless data that can be used for planning,
coordination and most importantly, for acquiring homeless service funding. Many public and
private grants that are submitted throughout the County require homeless data. Homeless data
as provided by the RTFH. The RTFH continues to provide specific information and education on a
wide variety of the different aspects of homelessness. The RTFH continues to collect, analyze
and disseminate information on homelessness. The RTFH continues to do this by providing
information & referral services to the region along with reports on homeless services, funding and
population information. The RTFH also maintains a HUD mandated Homeless Management
Information System (HMIS) that is provided to our local continuum of care.
b. Benefit Discuss how the project/program provides benefit to low-income persons.
How does the proposed project respond to the City of Chula Vista needs?
All persons in our community who are eventually assisted by RTFH data are considered low-
income. The RTFH addresses the community's need for specific information and education on a
wide variety of the different aspects of homelessness. The RTFH collects, analyzes and
disseminates information on homeless ness, and facilitates regional solutions through planning,
coordination and advocacy. The RTFH does this by providing information & referral services to
the region along with reports on homeless services, funding and population information. The
RTFH also provides a HUD mandated Homeless Management Information System (HMIS) to our
local continuum of care. The RTFH is currentlv the onlv aaencv that Drovides the San Dieao
rea ion with comDrehensive information on homelessness. The RTFH also addresses our
community's need for homeless funding by providing information to the Regional Continuum of
Care Council for the annual HUD Supportive Housing Program application. This application
brings in 8-11 million dollars of federal homeless funds to the region. RTFH information on
homelessness is used in numerous other State and Federal grant applications from homeless
service providers. The City of Chula Vista benefits by having it's members use RTFH data for
multiple reasons to assist numerous individuals.
c. Other Resources and Collaboration Identify other potential or actual sources of funds. What
fund raising has the organization done to suppor! the proposed project? What role do
volunteers play in this project? Has your organization developed this project in collaboration
with other groups offering services? What services offered by other community groups
complement the proposed project? Are the proposed activities duplicative of projects
operated by other local public or non-profit organizations?
The RTFH seeks funding from many local jurisdictions and foundations. The United Way of San
Diego County, the City and County of San Diego, the Cities of Carlsbad, Escondido & Oceanside,
HUD, the Parker Foundation, the McCarthy Foundation and San Diego Grantmakers. The RTFH
fund raises by completing numerous grants to those entities and continues to look for additional
resources. Volunteers assist with the annual RTFH homeless count and by providing us with
homeless service and funding information. The RTFH works with most of the homeless service
agencies throughout the region and with many community groups and most public entities. All
Par! 11- Application Part II
Scope
HUD SHP funded agencies use the Homeless Management Information System. The RTFH is
currently the ONLY agency that provides the San Diego region with comprehensive information
on homelessness.
d. Oraanizational CaDacitv Summarize the organization's background/programmatic
capacity. Does your organization or proposed service fill a unique niche among clients who
are not currently served, or are under-served? Attach a list of the Board of Directors.
The RTFH has been providing services since 1985. The RTFH is currently the ONLY agency that
provides the region with comprehensive information on homelessness and one of only two
agencies to provide other agencies with a Homeless Management Information System.
SCOPE OF SERVICES
11. Scope of Services
a. Prolect DescrlDtlon Describe the proposed service/activity/project to be carried out with the
funds requested. If the proposed project is ongoing, specify why the funds are needed to
serve low and moderate-income persons. Discuss the cost-per-beneficiary in relation to
private and other organizations delivering similar services. Please note what proportion of the
proposed budget will support direct services to homeless people. CDBG funds can only be
used for expenditures which directly benefit CDBG-eligible clients.
The RTFH provides information and referral services to homeless service agencies, individuals
and local government jurisdictions. The RTFH publishes and makes available to the public,
homeless information reports that address homeless services, the homeless population profile
and homeless funding. The funding requested in this application is needed to keep the project
ongoing otherwise there would be no entity that could provide comprehensive regional homeless
information. The total number of homeless persons assisted via RTFH data, reports or referral
services is impossible to determine. Many agencies and community groups use RTFH data to
help homeless daily or to apply for Federal/State/Private grants but the numbers of homeless
helped are undetermined. Therefore the cost per beneficiary is also impossible to determine.
However, since the RTFH is the only entity to provide this information the cost-per-beneficiary is
low. All (100%) of the proposed budget supports services to the homeless.
b. Taraet GrouD Quantify the number of low- and moderate-income persons/households to be
assisted per service/activity/project.
It is estimated that at least half of the homeless population (at least 3500 overall/200 CV) will
eventually be assisted via RTFH information.
c. Outreach Discuss outreach efforts for the proposed service/activity/project.
The RTFH is Regional therefore staff make a presence in every region in San Diego county. In
addition, RTFH reports are made available to the entire region.
