Initial FY 1980 Funding for Soviet Jewish Resettlement Program
On Friday, May 23, 1980, I spoke with Joan Fuld regarding Karl Zukerman's
memo of May 12, 1980 regarding initial FY 1980 Federal Funding for the
Soviet Jewish Resettlement Program.
Since the initial grant received by CJF for the Resettlement Program was
18 million dollars, an initial limitation of 52%  of each communities
approved budget is being made. According to Joan, this restriction should
in no way effect the regular billing procedure of our community to CJF
for services provided to the Russian emigres. CJF fully expects to receive
a supplemental appropriation from H.E.U. Also, since the number of refugees
arriving from the Soviet Union has substantially decreased, CJF has estimated
that even with the current  allocation they have sufficient cash to reimburse
communities at the rate of 70% of their proposed budgets.
Therefore, I suggest that we continue to submit costs as incurred by the
agencies participating in the Resettlement Program. The maximum percentage
of total costs we are permitted to submit to CJF remains at 49%.
Please contact me if you have any further questions.
