Where provision of facilities is involved, IMW Form 441 is to be executed.) Part II PLAN FOR THE PROJECT 1. Applicant Agency a. Attached are charts which describe the organizational structure of the applicant agency and placement of responsibility for the conduct of the proposed project. b. First year's achievements in Title VII programming: (1) One of the major goals achieved was that 600 meals were provided soon after the first meal was provided. The first meals were served on February 11 and by March 18 all 600 meals were pro- vided. In addition, the program has been able to provide 100 more meals than funded for. Another major goal was the providing of outreach, referral and information, transportation and escort services to the participants. Although the program did not utilize as many congregate meal sites as anticipated, those sites that were used were developed in areas where there was a high concentration of the elderly including the elderly indigent and minority elderly. One other goal developed was the dove - tailing of services of Title III and Title VII programs. Each, up to now, have been able to supplement the other. This has resulted in the strengthening of the supportive services provided by both. Other supportive services such as health and nutrition education, consumerism, have also been developed as part of Title VII program- ming. Volunteerism has increased within the overall nutrition pro- gram and Retired Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) and other volunteer grams have been coordinated with and tied into the Title VII program. -1- (2) Number of below - poverty level participants -- Presently approximately 835 persons have been participating within the Title VII program. Records indicate that of these, 83 to 85 percent have incomes which fall below the poverty level guidelines. (3) Number of minority participants -- Present records indicate that of those participating in the nutrition program, approximately 85 percent of the individuals are considered minority elderly. This includes 8 percent Black and 77 percent Spanish language. (4) Other significant developments: One major significant development occurred on March 18. On this day Senior Community Services assumed the responsibility of an existing nutrition pro- gram which had been operating for over a year and a half. This as- sumption included the submission of a revised application to compen- sate for kitchen, staff and raw food purchases. The original appli- cation made no provision for actual meal preparation since it was anticipated that all meals were to be subcontracted. (5) Problems -- Due to the acquisition of this existing nutri- tion program which included transfer of 1) staff, 2) equipment, and 3) participants, the percentage of home delivered meals increased from 9 percent to over 40 percent. The reason for this was that the CAA's project was mostly a home delivered meal program. This has resulted in an added workload for the staff in terms of continu- ous follow -up so as to try and curtail these home deliveries. c. Applicant is not a minority agency but a municipal corporation and body politic. d.

During this initial project year, the nutrition project has been operating under several contracts for meals. (1) West Oso Independent School District -- Under this contract, West Oso I.S.D. has charge of providing up to 200 meals daily within sites specified by the project. Presently only one site is being utilized and up to 130 meals are being provided. Sev- eral changes will have to take place regarding providing meals to other sites, improvement of quality of meals in order to maintain this contract. (2) Chuckwagon Caterers -- This private- profit corporation provides up to 200 meals daily to several mealsites in the city. This private caterer has been invaluable in several instances in that it has had to provide meals during times when the school has been closed due to holidays and other periods of inactivity. In both instances, project personnel work closely with these contractors to insure proper development and usage of menus, meal quality, proper delivery, proper quantity of serving and nutritional value of meals provided. Monitoring is also done regarding raw food purchases by the contractors in the develop- ment of meals. It is anticipated that one or both contractors may be dropped since the project's own kitchens will have the capability of providing most or all meals. Consolidation is presently being undertaken by the project's own kitchens so as to accomplish this. There are several agreements by which the project has been using congregate mealsites. All kitchens operated by the project serve a dual role in that they serve as congregate mealsites. -4- • �J Since rent is paid, there is a contract between the city and the owner(s) of the buildings. These contracts were negotiated between the project staff and the owner(s). Other agreements on facilities utilized for congregate mealsites Include those which compensate for the use of electricity anc utilities. These, too, were negotiated between the project sta" and the person(s) responsible for the facilities. 2. Project Area See attached map indicating all mealsite locations. 3. Administration of the Project a. Organization: (1) See attached organizational chart. (2) Job descriptions have been written for each staff position within the project. This is necessary since all positions have to be approved and conform to personnel department regulations. Duties and responsibilities are also explained during staff meetings which are held on a regular basis. b. How many volunteers will be utilized: Kind of Work: Number: _T Dietitian Outreach Workers 6 Recreation Instructors 6 Mealsite Aides 6 How many college or high school youths: None c. Description of plans for provision of training for project personnel: In- service training is, of course, a matter of routine during staff meetings. Training during the first year has been provided by several volunteers. Outreach training has been provided by the outreach supervisor as well as by key members of other agencies. Training for kitchen personnel has been provided by a member of one of the whole - -5- sale suppliers. Training provided by North Texas State University has been received by the project coordinator for a two -week perioc. It is planned to maintain this same degree of training so as to maximize staff capability and output. d. See attached list of Advisory Committee members. e. The Advisory Committee has continually provided input in the devel- opment of the project. It has been this input by the members rhich has enabled the project to progress to the point where it is presents/. Suggestions and recommendations set forth by the members have been contained here in the application. 4. Plan for Operation of the Project a.

Objective X -- Nutrition Education The project shall maintain a program of regularly scheduled meetings to disseminate facts about the kinds and amounts of foods that are required to meet daily nutritional needs and conduct such meetings once a week, 52 weeks a year, at each congregate mealsite. Objective XI -- Shopping Assistance The project shall continue to provide shopping assistance to an average of ten persons per day, five days each week, Monday through Friday, 52 weeks a year, in a manner designed to help project parti- cipants to and from food markets and to assist them in the selection of proper food items which will improve their nutritional intake. Objective XII -- Recreation The project will continue to provide adequate supplies and provide suitable and feasible activities five days a week, Monday through Friday, 52 weeks a year, in at least four congregate dining centers or other appropriate facilities. b. Delivery of Meals Plan As of the first year of operation, the nutrition project has three methods of providing meals: (1) West Oso Independent School District -- Public body pro- viding 130 meals in one congregate meal site. (2) Chuckwagon Caterers -- Private - profit corporation serving 200 meals at four congregate meal sites. (3) Project- operated kitchens (three) -- Serving 300 meals to seven congregate sites. Each of the two contractors provide a meal which has thus far conformed to guidelines. The cost of these meals, however, is substantially high, $1.30 and $1.50 per meal. The project pre- pared meals are prepared for about 40a which only considers raw food purchases. All total, the project can prepare a meal for about 80t to $1.00. Of the three kitchens operated by the project, two are in Corpus Christi and one is in Robstown. The two kitchens in Corpus Christi will be consolidated into one central kitchen. It is planned that when this happens, the project will be in a position to cancel both contracts and prepare all meals from the project's own kitchens. This will mean that a greater number of persons can be added to the roles than are presently included. Menus are provided for the meals in two ways: (a) Each of the two contractors provide six -weeks cycle menus. These menus must conform to guidelines set forth by the nutrition program manual. (b) The project itself also provides six -weeks cycle menus which also conform to guidelines. These menus are developed with the help of the Corpus Christi Independent School District Food Services director. (1) In each case, each menu takes into consideration health and religious requirements, ethnic, cultural and religious prefer- ences. Individuals themselves provide input on specific items which the group wants deleted or added to the menu. Several times in the past, items have been substituted at the request of project participants. (2) As the menus are approved, each congregate mealsite is provided -9- with a copy of the approved menu. (3) How many meals will be served daily? Congregate 720 Home Delivered 80 (4) Is the total an increase or decrease? Increase' (5) What days will be served? S QrT W T F S (6) Which meals are planned to be served on a daily basis? Breakfast Lunch Dinner (7) Who will prepare meals and how are these meals to be t: °ans- proted to the congregate meal sites and /or the home delivery sites? At the present time there are three methods by which meals are provided at congregate mealsites: (a) West Oso Independent School District -- Provides 13C meals to one site in bulk, portioned out at site. (b) Chuckwagon Caterers -- Provides 200 meals to four sites pre - packaged, ready to consume. (c) Project Kitchens -- Provide 380 -plus packaged meals to five congregate meal sites including the county. Chuckwagon provides their vehicles for the delivery of these packaged meals in thermal containers that maintain hot foods hot and cold foods cold. The project also packages these Teals In thermal containers and uses its vans for delivering to the various sites. Home deliveries are made by'the project's own vehicles and drivers. c. For new congregate mealsites: (1) and (2) No new sites. (3) Meal Site List is attached as page 11 . -10- -11- 1�a1.sTTE IN�oRXATION BE80RT AUGUST 5.1974 NAPE ADDRESS ..... PHONE NO.

For project also planning home delivered meals describe: (1) The project for its second operating year will serve no mere than 80 home delivered meals or no more than 10 percent of the total number of meals provided. a. Cost of meal to participants: (1) No. The contribution for the meals is a voluntary one and therefore no specific amount. (2) How will contributions be received to ensure that an indivicu�i's contribution is confidential and that no indication of a means test is given or implied? Each congregate mealsite has a staff member assigned to it. This staff person daily takes a steel box with a slit where participants place their contributions in a small envelope that is dropped into this steel box. These boxes are locked and are not opened until all have been collected (10). The money ".n the envelopes is then counted and documented. Only the pa; °ticIrant is aware what he /she contributed towards the meal. Since the envelopes have no writing on them, there is no way the staff knows who contributed how much. 5. Plah for Social Service Delivery_ a. Are all supportive social services operational? Yes b. Outreach Activities: Outreach activities have been continuing daily even though full par - ticipation by meal recipients has been achieved. Outreach staff con- tinue to seek out the isolated elderly and provide them with needed referral and information services. Because the program overall has received such wide publicity. the staff is constantly receiving re- ferrals from doctors, hospitals, nursing homes. friends, relatives -12- and some agencies of elderly that could be assisted by this pro- gram. This outreach program has been centered around each of the senior centers and congregate mealsites since these are located in areas of high concentration of the elderly, the poor and minority elderly. This is being maintained on a daily basis as are follow -ups. Due to the workload involved by the outreach workers, this systematic cover of outreach within the target areas is not to be completed' any time soon. Other sources of financial support for this outreach effort is in the form of Title III funds, City and County Revenue Sharing funds and City general revenue funds. Both sources provide one main outreach service which is able to adequately cover not only the City of Corpus Christi but also the outlying areas of the county. All of these additional resources amount to more than $100,000 for an eight -month period .which began July 1, 1974 and operate through February 28, 1975. c. Transportation and Escort Services. Transportation and escort services similar to the outreach service is provided by two components into one major operation. Under Title VI: mini -vans are available to transport the elderly to and from congre- gate mealsites, to shopping, to the doctor, to other agencies, in short, anywhere they may need to go. Escort service is also pro- vided by the bus operators as well as outreach workers when it becomes necessary. Title III funding, coupled with City and County Revenue Sharing and City general revenues also allows for mini -vans to trans- port the elderly and provide escort when necessary. The transporta- tion is provided to an elderly person during the course of an eight - hour day and sometimes longer, anywhere they may need to go. The -13- project participant needs only to call any senior center or from any congregate mealsite for transportation or escort to wherever he /she may need to go. d. Continuation of all other supporting social services: Continuation of all other supporting social services such as infor- mation and referral, health and welfare counseling, nutrition educa- tion, shopping assistance and recreation is to be maintained during the second operating year. Added factors in the areas of health will serve to increase participation. For example, work is underway to provide for dental check -up, for blood pressure checkups and other vital functions. More importantly, these added services will be provided free of charge to the elderly simply by utilizing the local resources. Other services such as the CHORE program will add yet another service to those participating in home delivered meals. Because of the limited funds under Title VII, Title III funds, City and County Revenue Shar- ing funds, and City general revenues are available to add strength. This also provides a more comprehensive program than with just Title VII as the sole provider. Even though Title VII is limited in terms'of actual funds expended for supporting services, through Title III and revenue sharing, these services have been strengthened in that the thrust of Title III Is that for providing supporting services (i.e., transportation, out- reach, referral and information, center supportive activities). So long as these funds are available, these basic services will be pro- vided. 6. Relationship of the Project to Other Programs a. One of the general tasks by the administrative staff of the project -14- and division where this project is placed is planning and coor- dination. Senior Community Services has become involved in planning and coor- dination which has resulted in the following: (1) Services and Activities Geared to the Elderly (SAGE) which is funded by United Way is able to provide staff which works in the nutrition project: The three staff members, though funded by the SAGE Board of Directors, are trained and supervised by the program staff. (2) Retired Seniors in Volunteer Programs (RSVP) provide volunteers both in the centers and other congregate mealsites. These volunteers serve as instructors, outreach workers, custodians, hosts, and a score of other activities. (3) The Community Action Agency (CAA) has provided assistance to the program both in terms:of personnel and facilities. (4) City Parks and Recreation Department has provided both per- sonnel and facilities to the program. Other efforts made for this project directly is the county's participa- tion by means of revenue sharing funds. As a result of the county's par- ticipation, the supportive services will be greatly strengthened to the western part of the county. Greater local participation is planned where- . by additional persons will be added to the nutrition program with the community assuming the cost of their meal. Presently this is being done for some 18 to 20 persons. An anonymous donor provides a monthly reim- bursement to the program for their meals. This concept will be expanded during the second operating year. b. There is one main program that will be initiated throughout the county with the help of the county and the State Department of Public Welfare. This -15- program is called CHORE. When fully operational, chorepersons will assist those elderly persons who are disabled or lack mobility and help them in their daily chores at home which include washing, arranging transportation, cooking, sweeping, cleaning and with other errands. This program is important in that it supplements a service that our present staff is not readily able to do nor perform. As stated, this program will be contracted with the State Department of Public Welfare funded also by the county. There are several areas of coordination and supplemental help which already have been worked out by the key staff. These include transportation, physical facili- ties, referrals, follow -up and other coordinated services. 7. Evaluation There are several areas in which a constant evaluation process is main- tained: a. Key 'staff have the responsibility of monitoring and evaluating the quality, quantity and texture of the meals. This also includes a periodic monitoring of each contractor's raw food purchases to insure that only top quality foods are being used to prepare the meals. b. Staff also monitors and evaluates each day the meals that the project kitchens provide. This provides for quality control. c. Outreach, transportation, referral /information and other supportive services are evaluated by means of staff meetings, and coordinative sessions that serve only to maximize staff time involvement and out- put. Monthly participation records serve as a visible means of de- determining the extent by which participants use the various services available. Periodic evaluation also is provided by members of the Governor's Committee on Aging staff, in conjunction with Area Agency on Aging Staff. _16_ 8. Relationships with U.S.O.A. Program a. One of the functions of the outreach staff is to provide referral and follow -up services. Because the project may now receive food stamps in payment for home delivered meals, the staff is presently doing follow -up to get the home delivered meal recipients certified and to assist those who do not have food stamps to get them. Several persons have already been assisted in getting food stamps during this first operating year of the project. b. The City, or rather Senior Community Services. has been certified to receive food stamps for home delivered meals. 9. Relationship with Area Agency on Aging a. Working agreement between the project and the Area Agency on Aging has not been finalized as of.the writing of this proposal. It is anticipated, however. that this should be done shortly. -17- JOB DESCRIPTIONS Senior Community Services operates as a division under the Department of Planning and Urban Development. Due to its structure and funding sources, each project is operated not independently of the other but rather together as one overall program providing several services. Though Senior Community Services has a rather large funding base, the organi- zational structure has been kept basic and simple with the one objective of meeting its priorities. Though this structure has been in use for so��e months, it is nevertheless a structure that is capable of being changed in order to improve the program's progress.
