Information

Agenda Item Text:

Approve Modification #2, under Purchase Order #: Y553670, to the subcontract, Acción Para La Salud, between the Arizona Board of Regents, University of Arizona, and Cochise Health & Social Services in the amount of $24,000 for the period of 10/1/11 through 9/29/12.

Background:

CHSS as a whole has always advocated for better services to the citizens of Cochise County thru the many avenues it serves. Cochise County has been using community health workers (CHWs) effectively for the past 15 years in delivery of their home visitation program to young pregnant women and their children under the age of 2. This new partnership provides the opportunity to increase community-driven policy changes related to chronic disease by working with the Community Health Worker model more effectively.

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

Your approvals are respectfully requested.

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

Not approving this grant will cause Cochise County to miss out on an opportunity to assist in the research to develop an evidence-based CHW advocacy model that will work within Cochise County. By not participating Cochise County will lose the opportunity to assist in promoting better advocacy involvement within the underserved population of the county. It has the potential of bringing to the forefront some community issues that may not yet have been identified.

To BOS Staff: Document Disposition/Follow-Up:

A fully executed original will be sent to the Clerk of the Board for filing purposes.
