The Henry County Board of Commissioners voted at its July 7 regular meeting to approve a resolution regarding the receipt of $91,014 in federal funds through a contract with the Atlanta Regional Commission.
The agreement is in effect from April 1 to Dec. 31 under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, which addresses the impact of COVID-19 on the domestic front by providing expanded nutrition assistance among other low-income and senior services. There is no required local match for the money, which will be used by Henry County Senior Services for home-delivery meals as well as congregate meals served in the county’s senior centers.
