Council renews one‑year AID Association contract to continue police social‑worker services
Summary
The city approved a one‑year contract to continue the police department’s partnership with AID Association for social‑worker services, increasing the ask slightly to $85,000 while staff pursue partial reimbursement through a 708 board grant.
Police‑department representatives asked the council to approve a one‑year contract renewal with the AID Association to continue embedded social‑worker services. The presenter said the price rose slightly from $80,000 to $85,000 and the department had applied to a 708 board grant to offset the cost; last year the social worker’s work generated 588 client referrals to police social services, the presenter said.
Council moved and approved the resolution to continue the contract. The presenter said the increased funds would partly support minor client needs (transportation, hotel vouchers, meal cards) tied to the social‑worker’s casework.
