Information

Department Action

This is to request Commissioners Court acceptance for the FY 2021 Public Health Emergency Preparedness (PHEP) Hazards contract with the Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS).

The FY 2021 award is being distributed as an amendment to the existing PHEP grant contract (537-18-0128-00001). The amendment will extend the current contract through June 30, 2021 and provide an additional $562,786 for the upcoming contract year, which is level funding. A 10% match in the amount of $56,280 is required for all funds spent and we expect to meet that requirement through in-kind support from existing Collin County staff hours.

The purpose of the PHEP Hazards grant is to support public health emergency activities such as epidemiology and surveillance, public health needs in disaster situations, sheltering in place, pandemic flu response, mass fatality, and Strategic National Stockpile response, to name a few. Program funds will be used towards existing PHEP personnel costs as well as purchasing related program supplies.
