August 20. 2002
Dear Kerr County Commissioner's Court,
The Kerr County Child Services Board is asking to lie put on the agenda for your August 26th
meeting. We would like to discuss the following two issues at the meeting.
A request for additional funding for this fiscal year. Due to an large increase in the number of
Kerr county children who are in foster care, the Board is running out of funds before some
immediate needs of these children can be addressed. As of this date, there are currently 52
children in state conservatorship from Kerr county, 46 of whom are in foster care. This time
last year there were only 35 children in conservatorship. To be succinct, more money is
needed to help with school supplies for these children and to help with emergency placement
expenses of several children who have recently entered foster care.
2. A second issue is to seek help in getting fills paid promptly so that a local resource can be
used in securing Gothing and other items that these children in foster care need.
Your consideration and help in these matters is greatly appreciated.
Sincerery,
~ju,yuj c:pu,-~l<,.
