Counties currently un-served by PSSF Network Providers include Walton, Morgan, Jones, Wilkinson, Craw<strong>for</strong>d, Peach, Marion,<br />
Early, Miller, Baker, Turner, C<strong>of</strong>fee, Bacon, Tattnall and Evans counties.<br />
Funding and Resource Allocation to fill Gaps: The Division received two hundred sixty (260) proposals <strong>for</strong> the FFY 2004 funding<br />
cycle, a 38% increase over proposals received FFY 2003. Targeted funding <strong>for</strong> the FFY 04 cycle has effectively increased the number,<br />
quality and array <strong>of</strong> services <strong>for</strong> children and families at-risk and children confirmed as maltreated. One hundred and seventy (170)<br />
community based agencies were awarded funding <strong>for</strong> the FFY 04 cycle.<br />
PSSF Network Services are now accessible in 95% <strong>of</strong> the state with service delivery in 145 <strong>of</strong> 159 counties statewide. Gaps in seven<br />
(7) <strong>of</strong> the counties identified as un-served by PSSF Network Providers have been filled. Services are now accessible in Wilkinson,<br />
Walton, Morgan, Putnam, Jones, and Peach counties. PSSF Resources are also available to all 159 county departments through Mini-<br />
Grants.<br />
