Information

Department Action

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

The FY 2021 award is being distributed as an amendment to the existing grant contract (537-18-0141-00001). The amendment will extend the current contract through June 30, 2021, and provide an additional $133,431 for the upcoming contract year, which is level funding. A 10% match in the amount of $13,343 is required for all funds spent, and we expect to meet that requirement through in-kind support from existing Collin County staff and MRC volunteer hours.

The purpose of the CRI grant is to enhance preparedness efforts in our county and improve our ability to respond to public health emergencies, especially those requiring life-saving medication and/or medical supplies. Program funds will be used towards existing CRI personnel costs as well as purchasing related program supplies.
