FY 27 Proposed Operating Budget

HANDICAPPED CARE CENTERS

ORIGIN & PURPOSE: Handicapped Care Centers is a group of budgetary funds supporting mentally/physically disabled rehabilitation services. These services are provided by two private, non-profit organizations - the Harford Center, Inc., and The Arc Northern Chesapeake Region. These programs offer educational and vocational opportunities with the community for mentally/physically disabled residents. County contributions to these organizations are payable to the Maryland State Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and must be, at a minimum, the amount paid by County government in Fiscal Year 1984. These payments are mandated by the Development Disabilities Law, Section 7-705, in the Health General Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland.
