RESOLUTION URGING DOWNRIVER COMMUNITY SERVICES (ALGONAC) TO CONTINUE 1991-92 LEVEL OF FUNDING FOR THE YEAR 1992-93 BUDGET TO PROVIDE THE INFORMATION AND REFERRAL LINKAGES FOR TURNING POINT'S HEALTH SCREENING AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE SCREENING PROGRAM
COMMISSIONER WILLLIAM SOWERBY, ON BEHALF OF THE FULL BOARD, 0 OFFERS THE FOLLOWING RESOLUTION :
0 Turning Point has received funding from Downriver Community Services to provide Health Screening, Substance Abuse screening which includes information and referral
linkages .
The funding is an allocation Downriver Community Services receives to serve
Macomb County homeless individuals and families through the New Haven Medical Clinic .
Downriver has contracted with Turning Point to provide the above services .
Turning Point hires a Health Advocate to carry out the contracted activities and to also
schedule appointments at the New Haven Medical Clinic and to coordinate transporation .
Prior to the Homeless Health Care Project, Turning Point relied on local
hospital emergency rooms for medical needs of the homeless . Since the contractual
relationship with Downriver Community Services has existed trips to local hospital
emergency rooms have been reduced by over 90% .
During the past four years Downriver Cannunity Services has continued to reduce
funding to Turning Point even though a valuable service has been provided . Funding for
1992/93 is proposed at $5,000 . This means the Hanelsss Health Advocate position at
Turning Point will be elminated . Although Downriver Community Services proposes to
provide the above services themselves they lack access to residents at the Turning Point 4) Shelter .
If funding to Turning Point is not continued at the current level shelter
residents will not receive the same level of screening and referral . This may result in a
return to the use of hospital emergency moms which is not an efficient luse of public
funds .
The services Turning Point provided has assured access of homeless families to
medical care through Downriver Community Services Homeless Health Care Project thus the
homeless have improved health care . August 20, 1992
