The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) provides funding during the current economic crisis to save and create jobs.The ARRA funding also calls for increased transparency and accountability to taxpayers.At NORWESCAP accountability and transparency has always been the cornerstone of our service delivery model, providing services to over 35,000 low income individuals a year with an administrative cost of less than five cents.NORWESCAP is pleased to report that we have received funding under the ARRA to expand services and provide new services to our community.
NORWESCAP designated part of the ARRA funding to develop the reporting ability of the agency through database system and administrative support.
ARRACapacityBuilding and Administrative Support
NORWESCAP serves 35,000 low-income individuals each year throughout our service category.Each program maintains client data and reports to individual funding sources on individual client outcomes and data.However, funding sources do not allow for data to be shared creating a barrier for the agency to analyze client needs and to create detailed client trend data.Therefore, the agency has allocated funding to expand our client tracking database system and to provide additional administrative support to work with all agency programs to ensure that all appropriate agency resources are utilized.This funding will also help the agency to ensure all reporting requirements as required by ARRA funding will be achieved in an effective and efficient manner.
Creation of Jobs
This category of ARRA funding has created two full time positions.
