Information
Agenda Item Text:
Approve Amendment #3 for contract ADHS15-096693 Health Start Program between the Arizona Department of Health Services and Cochise Health & Social Services (CHSS), in the annual amount of $306,185, to extend the contract period one year through June 30, 2020.
Background:
CHSS has received the Health Start grant for the past 26 years which allows us to promote healthy births and healthy families among Cochise County residents. The Health Start Program serves pregnant women and families with children under age two. The purpose is to reduce pregnancy and post-partum risks through a community health worker model where trained community members act as a guide and mentor using an evidence-based curriculum called “Partners for a Healthy Baby” to support and educate parents about how to raise healthy children. Pregnant women and parents receive guidance and information including what to expect during pregnancy, breastfeeding education and support, nutrition for children and pregnant women, screening for child development, activities to support healthy development and home health and safety.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
Your approvals are respectfully requested.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
Not approving this grant will cause the cessation of this value-added program to at-risk pregnant women and parenting families in Cochise County.
