body
Financial Impact:
There is no change in the maximum compensation of the Agreement. This is a receivable to the Tehama County Health Services Agency in the amount of $2,974,653.00. This WIC allocation is for three Federal Fiscal Years.
Background Information:
On September 9, 2025, the Board of Supervisors approved the original WIC Funding Agreement (Misc. Agree. 2025-287) for Federal Fiscal Years (FFY) 2025-2028.
TCHSA Public Health has been operating this Tehama County program since 2003. This program provides funding to administer the WIC program, a federally funded health and nutrition program. WIC helps families by providing funds for buying healthy supplemental foods from WIC authorized vendors, nutrition education and referral to healthcare and other community services. Participants must meet income guidelines and be pregnant women, new mothers, infants, or children under the age of five.
This Amendment shifts funds in FFY’s 2025-26, 2026-27, and 2027-28 to accommodate anticipated expenses with the addition of one new subcontractor.
If this item is not approved, the Department would not have the necessary resources to coordinate this public health program for our community.
