Wyoming County health department says PHIG award reinstated; $559,883 secured for 2022–2027
Summary
Public Health Program Specialist Allison Robb reported the county’s CDC Public Health Infrastructure Grant (PHIG) award of $559,883 (12/1/2022–11/30/2027) was reinstated after a brief CDC stop-work review, and the department is on track to expend the funds.
Allison Robb, Public Health Program Specialist, presented the Community Health Assessment and Community Health Improvement Plan developed with GO Health and told the committee that Wyoming County Health Department (WCHD) was approved for $559,883 in CDC Public Health Infrastructure Grant (PHIG) funding covering Dec. 1, 2022 through Nov. 30, 2027. Robb said funds to date have been used for facility improvements, IT replacement, vehicle purchase, staff retention and to offset approved wage adjustments.
Robb told the committee that on Jan. 24, 2026 the CDC issued a stop-work order related to PHIG funding to review funded activities for alignment with administration priorities, but that New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) received official notice of award (NOA) reinstatement on Jan. 27, 2026 “with no changes,” allowing PHIG activities to continue. WCHD staff said the department remains on track to fully expend the awarded funds during the grant period.
