Agencies vie for poverty funding in South County
In a city contest over federal anti poverty funds, the Southern Abumeds County Economic Opportunity Agency faces a gubernatorial veto risk as South County cities seek to take over antipoverty programs. Union City receives a five page service recap covering housing health employment and neighborhood services including heroin rehabilitation Project Intercept pre trial diversion and youth motivation programs. Critics say the list overstates impact and lacks direct services for the poor while West city officials fault the heroin rehab plan as wasteful and point to other local initiatives such as vocational training outreach facility at the University of the Pacific Dental School and Turnkey Housing bringing 200 units plus a planned day care center.
