Title
Joint resolution approving an emergency appropriation of $25,050 for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 accepting a new grant from the Public Health Institute of Metropolitan Chicago Routine HIV Screening Development grant.
Staff Summary
• The Health Department received $25,050 in new grant funding for the period of July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025, which was not previously appropriated because the grant resources were secured after the County’s adoption of the FY 2024 budget.
• The purpose of this funding is to build capacity by developing infrastructure, training staff, and integrating HIV screenings into daily workflows.
• If grant funding for services end, and new funding is not secured, services will be eliminated.
