§ 3150.3. Applicability.
(a) This chapter governs the provision of grants by the Department to aid counties in the development of new social services for children and youth. There are two types of grants for new services:
(1) Additional grants. Additional grants will be awarded within the limits of the annual appropriations, to assist counties in establishing new social services in accordance with a plan approved by the Department.
(2) Block grants. Block grants will be awarded only at the end of the 1978 and 1979 calendar years to those counties which qualify according to statutory criteria. Block grants will only be used to assist in establishing new services.
(b) The Department and the county are jointly responsible to assure the availability of social services to children and youth who need them regardless of race, sex, religion, settlement, residence, economic or social status.
(c) The Department will be responsible for reviewing and approving grant awards. The county will be responsible for developing and submitting to the Department for approval an application for a grant award if it wishes to receive the funds. Counties are eligible to apply for an additional grant. Counties eligible to receive block grants will be determined by a strict formula as set forth in § § 3150.21 and 3150.22 (relating to block grants).
