On April 25, 2023, the Tehama County Board of Supervisors approved the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Standard Agreement #22-10694 (Misc. Agreement #2023-102) for funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for the Public Health Emergency Preparedness (PHEP) Program, Pandemic Influenza Planning (PAN Flu), and Hospital Preparedness (HPP) Programs in the total amount of $1,899,277, effective 7/1/22 through 6/30/27. This is a renewal application for funding from the California Department of Public Health Emergency Preparedness Office. The program is a five-year grant period for services beginning on July 1, 2022. Each year the County receives notification of the grant allocations for the following fiscal year and must submit a grant application to be considered for continuing funding. These programs provide funding for the local health jurisdiction to ensure a coordinated effort and community response for emergency preparedness activities in the region.
