The commission heard that the holiday assistance program reached many families and children but did not cover households made up only of adults, prompting complaints from several seniors. Staff will assess how to expand the program in future years. The department also requested additional funding for part-time program staff as hourly wages increased, while FY25 caregiver grant recommendations will go to the City Manager for consideration in the proposed budget.
