I would request that the money be used to increase reimbursement for Agency Directed Personal Care and Respite Services to offset the increase in minimum wage for the period of 5/1/21-1/1/22. For this time, we were only given a .92 raise to offset a 2.25 increase in minimum wage. This money is vital to bridge the gap between the rate increase from 5/1 to 1/1/22.
