Discussion and possible action to enter into a Fifty-One (51) month (October 1, 2024 through December 31, 2029) Non-Financial Memorandum of Understanding with the State of Texas, through the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC), establishing a Community Partnership Program  with Webb County in order to assist Webb residents with online community based application assistance in connection with Supplemental Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), Medicaid Long-Term Care Services (LTC), Health Texas Women (HTW), as well as other HHSC benefit programs, designating Guillermo Walls, as the Site Manager for Webb County regarding the Program; authorizing the County Judge to execute all relevant documents, and any other matters incident thereto.  [Requested by Webb County Judge; No Financial Impact on the General Fund]
 
Issue: Webb County residents have had to apply for various Texas Health and Human Services benefit Programs by visiting a local Texas Health and Human Services office making it difficult to access said services for residents leaving outside the corporate city limits of Laredo. 
 
Solution: This MOU will allow Webb County residents to be able to be assisted in applying to HHSC benefit services through an online portal at a designated Webb County office(s).
