RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to accept a Grant Award #28-962 with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), to pay the County an amount not to exceed $3,355,250, for American Rescue Plan Act Funding for Health Centers, for the period from April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Acceptance of the Grant Award will result in payment to the County of up to $3,355,250 in funding from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services HRSA. No County match is required.


BACKGROUND:

The goal of this grant is to support COVID-19 efforts across the Health Services Department including vaccine management and distribution, expanding access to enabling services and supporting primary care services for homeless patients at the homeless shelter in East County. This funding will improve the COVID-19 vaccine inventory management system, expand access to enabling services by supporting eligibility workers to support Medi-Cal redeterminations workflows and ensure availability of primary health care for homeless patients relocated due to COVID-19.  
  
The delay in processing this Grant Award was due to the budget documents needing approval by both the funder and the Health Care for the Homeless governing board prior to finalization of the Grant Award.  
  
Approval of new Grant Award #28-962 will allow funding to the County for the American Rescue Plan Act, through March 31, 2023.
