Summary of Request

The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) provides funds to the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program of the Mendocino County Department of Public Health (PH), to support pregnant, breastfeeding, or postpartum women and their children. These funds enable the WIC program to provide services to help mothers and young children stay healthy. Specifically, qualifying WIC participants are eligible to receive nutrition education, vouchers for nutritious foods, breastfeeding support, and referrals to medical providers and community services. WIC provides these supportive services at nine locations throughout the County.

 

In May 2022, PH submitted a Contract Application to CDPH; on July 25, 2022, PH received the Agreement from CDPH; and on September 20, 2022 the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors (BOS) executed the Agreement (BOS-22-236) in the amount of $3,336,315 to support essential WIC program services across Mendocino County for a three-year term, through September 30, 2025.

 

In March 2023, PH received a first Amendment to Agreement No. BOS-22-236; and on June 20, 2023 the BOS executed this first Amendment No. BOS-22-236-A1, increasing the amount by $63,906, for a new total of $3,400,221.

 

In early 2023, PH was notified by CDPH of a forthcoming second Amendment to increase the awarded amount by $9,467 per year, for a total increase of $28,401, for a new overall total of $3,428,622. PH submitted the proposed second Amendment packet to CDPH on April 3, 2023, and now seeks BOS ratification of the submission, and authorization for the Chief Executive Officer or designee to execute the forthcoming second Amendment once provided by CDPH.
