body
Financial Impact:
This contract is budgeted in Department's FY 2023-24 budget using SNAP-Ed grant funds.
Background Information:
For several years, the Health Services Agency has subcontracted with Chico State Enterprises with funds from the SNAP-Ed grant within the Nutrition Education Obesity Prevention (NEOP) program. This subcontract assists Public Health in completing the grant objectives of supporting a youth-led project to promote healthy foods and active lifestyles through the creation of a nutrition awareness program for youth in Tehama County.
This amendment to increase the compensation is necessary due to unfilled staff vacancies and is essential to completing the scope of work. If approval is not granted, the Public Health Division may not be able to meet the grant objectives for this year.
