KING COUNTY, WA - At its business meeting on July 29, 1999, the Seattle HIV/AIDS Planning Council adopted a plan to distribute an anticipated $5.5 million prioritized across various categories of care services for low income persons living with HIV/AIDS in King County in the 2000 contract year. The plan, which represents a projected $200,000 increase in available funding in FY2000, is summarized on the attached report. The Seattle HIV/AIDS Planning Council is the local decision-making body that determines how particular federal, state and local funds will be awarded for HIV/AIDS care service delivery in King County.
Interested parties have a 20-day period (through August 26) to review the plan and file any grievance regarding the process by which these decisions were made. For more details about this report, the prioritization process, the Ryan White CARE Act through which the bulk of the Council's funding is granted, or for information on how to file a formal grievance, please contact Jim Jorgenson, Planning Council Coordinator at (206) 205-5511 or by e-mail at jim.jorgenson@kingcounty.gov.
HIV/AIDS Program staff at Public Health - Seattle & King County will be developing a request for proposal by which non-profit agencies can apply to utilize these funds during the 2000 contract period, which runs from March 1, 2000 through February 28, 2001. For information on how to obtain an application, contact Theresa Fiaño at (206) 205-5507.
