Funding Reviews

Funding for regional agencies is included in the County department whose function is relative to the services provided by the agency. County staff from the relative Department reviews each agency request closely to evaluate how the services the agency provides will benefit the citizens of Spotsylvania County and to determine if there are duplication of services between County departments and other agencies. County staff provides a recommended level of funding for each regional agency in their Department budget. The Department of Social Services (DSS) Advisory Board thoroughly reviews each agency request related to Social Services.
