The Budget Act of 2022 for budget year 2022-2023 [Health and Safety Code 101320, 101320.3, and 101320.5] provides $200,400,000 annually to local health jurisdictions for public health workforce and infrastructure, referred to as Future of Public Health (FoPH) funding.
California Department of Public Health is allocating $715,080 each Fiscal Year of these FoPH funds to the County of Mendocino.
