The Hancock County Commissioners approved another transfer of money from the general fund to Job and Family Services during their Tuesday meeting. The JFS will use the more than $86,000 for children’s services.

Earlier this year the commissioners agreed to make monthly payments to the agency.

In August the JFS projected a $500,000 shortfall for child placement funds for the rest of the year.
