Health department previews $25,000 PEF plan and $99,152 Grow grant application
Summary
Health department staff presented a plan for a $25,000 Public Health Emergency Fund (PEF) and updated the council on a regional 'Grow' grant application asking Clinton County's share of $99,152 in year one to support chronic disease prevention, maternal access and nutrition projects.
Health department representatives outlined a proposed plan for the $25,000 Public Health Emergency Fund (PEF), allocating roughly 50% to coordinator salaries (primary and backup), with the remainder for mobile clinic supplies, equipment maintenance and training. Staff said the PEF plan must be advertised and will be returned for final action next month.
Separately, the department described submission of a regional Grow grant application (rural health transformation) that, if approved, would provide Clinton County with $99,152 in the first year and $132,000 in the second year for three initiatives: chronic disease prevention, prenatal/maternal access and food/nutrition access. Officials said the grant is reimbursable but requested ability to receive some upfront payments on contract delivery.
