TO: Board of Supervisors
SUBMITTED BY: David Luchini, RN, PHN, Director, Department of Public Health
SUBJECT: Revenue Agreement with California Department of Public Health
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute a revenue Agreement and related Contractor
Certification Clauses and Certification Regarding Lobbying with the California Department of
Public Health Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention Branch Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance Program-Education,for the CalFresh Healthy Living program, effective October 1, 2023
through September 30, 2026,total not to exceed $7,149,527.
There is no increase in Net County Cost associated with the recommended action to accept the California
Department of Public Health (CDPH) Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention (NEOP) Branch
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-Education (SNAP-Ed)CalFresh Healthy Living (CFHL) program
grant award.The award will allow the Department of Public Health (Department)to continue providing
nutrition education and obesity prevention activities and interventions to low-income County residents. The
revenue agreement will also fund additional activities through contract partnerships which will be brought
before your Board at a later date. This item is countywide.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION(S):
Should your Board not approve the recommended actions the Department would be unable to provide
critical evidenced based interventions and activities related to improving healthy eating and active living
behavior and environments for low-income County residents.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no increase in Net County Cost associated with the recommended action. The maximum
compensation for the recommended revenue agreement is $7,149,527. The services will be fully funded
with the CDPH NEOP SNAP-Ed grant. Funds will cover contractual costs, staffing, services, and supplies in
support of program activities and interventions. Distribution of funds will use the Federal Fiscal Year(FFY)
funding cycle (October 1 through September 30)at$2,383,176 each year of the three-year agreement.
Sufficient appropriations and estimated revenues are included in the Department's Org 5620 FY 2023-24
Recommended Budget and will be included in subsequent budget requests for the term.
DISCUSSION:
The Department has received CDPH NEOP SNAP-Ed grant funds since 2013 to provide nutrition education
and obesity prevention activities and interventions for low-income County residents. In California, the CDPH
CFHL program targets low-income families and individuals with a comprehensive public health approach to
promote and establish healthy eating habits and a physically active lifestyle for prevention of chronic
County of Fresno Page 1 File Number.23-0742
File Number:23-0742
diseases, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes.
The recommended revenue agreement will fund the CFHL program for a three-year grant period from
October 1, 2023, to September 30, 2026, to provide nutrition education and obesity prevention activities and
interventions for low-income residents. Requirements of the grant award are to provide evidenced based
interventions and activities related to improving healthy eating and active living behavior and environments
for the primary prevention of chronic disease, with a focus on creating equitable conditions that allow for
community members to achieve their most optimal health. Local Health Departments are expected to serve
populations with low-income and those who are disproportionately impacted by obesity and chronic
diseases related to diet and physical activity. In addition to individual and/or group nutrition education,
requirements of the funding include policy, systems and environmental (PSE)change work.
New FFY 2024-2026 CDPH guidance states the overarching programmatic priorities are advancing health
literacy; healthy beverage consumption and purchases; supporting PSE change at the community level and
in priority PSE settings and reaching and impacting youth.
To fulfill the grant objectives, the Department has proposed to work in school wellness program settings;
retail stores and farmers markets; public housing and community recreation centers; and bicycle and
walking paths. This funding will allow the Department to continue to provide nutrition and physical activity
education that address:
1. Increased access and appeal to healthy food beverage options.
2. Increased food waste prevention, recovery, and distribution efforts.
3. Improved access and utilization at existing farmers markets.
4. Improved school-based wellness policies and programs.
5. Increased community-driven PSE change projects within active transportation and bike and walking
trails.
The goal is to empower low-income families and individuals to select healthy foods and beverages and
increase physical activity through education, social marketing, and environmental supports with the
emphasis on communities with the greatest health disparities.
The total budget authority for this grant includes an additional 20 percent above the FFY 2024-2026 funding
allocation projections. The maximum amount of this grant does not guarantee that the Grantee will receive
this full amount. Funds awarded above the base funding allocation projection amount are contingent upon
available funds.
HR-Risk reviewed the agreement for insurance purposes and found the agreement deviates from the
County's standard indemnification language in that it requires the County to provide one-way indemnification
to the State in the performance of the Agreement. This language is typically present in State grants;
however, the Department has determined its acceptance of the indemnification language is advantageous to
the County, as the State grant is a funding source for the County's NEOP activities and interventions,
without which the continued provision of these services would be negatively impacted.

PURPOSE: [The Department administers a portion of the United States Department of

Ed), known in California as the CalFresh Healthy Living program (CFHL). The purpose of
the Grant is to provide allowable nutrition education and obesity prevention activities and
interventions for low-income Californians under the CFHL program. The negative health
effects of obesity and resulting chronic diseases, such as heart disease, high blood pressure,
diabetes, arthritis, and some forms of cancer, are well-documented. Obesity rates continue to
grow and remain high among children, adolescents, and adults. The focus of the project is
upstream public health approaches and individual and organizational health promotion to
help the CFHL target audience establish healthy eating habits, a physically active lifestyle,
and for primary prevention of disease. The CalFresh Healthy Living program in California
offers a comprehensive public health approach that enables partners to work together to
prevent obesity and serve California's individuals and families with low incomes. The target
audience for CFHL is CFHL-eligible Californians. CFHL-eligible individuals refer to the
SNAP-Ed eligible audience, specifically SNAP participants and other low-income individuals
who qualify for SNAP (CalFresh Food) benefits or other means-tested Federal assistance
programs. The term "means-tested Federal Assistance programs" is defined as Federal
programs that require the populations, they serve have a gross individual or family income at
or below 185 percent of the Federal Poverty Level. There may be additional eligibility
requirements to receive these programs, which provide cash and noncash assistance to
eligible individuals and families.

Exhibit D
INTRODUCTION
Overall Purpose of Funding Application
The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Nutrition Education and Obesity
Prevention Branch (NEOPB) administers a portion of the United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA)-funded Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program — Education
(SNAP-Ed), known in California as the CalFresh Healthy Living program (CFHL). CDPH
NEOPB identifies as CDPH CFHL for purposes of this application package. CDPH
CFHL is soliciting applications from all California Local Health Departments (LHDs) to
provide allowable nutrition education and obesity prevention activities and interventions
for low-income Californians. The negative health effects of obesity and resulting chronic
diseases, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, arthritis, and some
forms of cancer are well documented. Obesity rates continue to grow and remain high
among children, adolescents, and adults. The focus of CDPH CFHL is upstream public
health approaches and individual and organizational health promotion to help the CFHL
target audience establish healthy eating habits, a physically active lifestyle, and for
primary prevention of disease. CDPH CFHL offers a comprehensive public health
approach that enables partners to work together to prevent obesity and serve
California's individuals and families with low incomes. The target audience for CFHL is
CFHL-eligible Californians. CFHL-eligible individuals refer to the SNAP-Ed eligible
audience, specifically SNAP participants and other low-income individuals who qualify
for SNAP (CalFresh Food) benefits or other means-tested Federal assistance
programs. The term "means-tested Federal assistance programs" for the purposes of
this Guidance is defined as Federal programs that require the populations they serve
have a gross individual or family income at or below 185 percent of the Federal Poverty
Level. There may be additional eligibility requirements to receive these programs, which
provide cash and noncash assistance to eligible individuals and families.
The California Department of Social Services (CDSS) as the oversight agency
administers CFHL. CDSS oversees four State Implementing Agencies that consist of
the California Department of Public Health (CDPH CFHL), University of California,
CalFresh Healthy Living, California Department of Aging, and Catholic Charities of
California, Inc. These state-level agencies, including CDSS, collectively represent
California's five CFHL State Implementing Agencies (SIAs). SIAs oversee the
implementation of CFHL programs and services by providing directives, support, and
guidance to their respective Local Implementing Agencies (LIAs). As a result of
California's state and local structure for CFHL, services are provided in all but one
county in the state (57 of 58 counties).
This application begins the process by which CDPH CFHL will prepare a three-year
State Plan for CFHL in collaboration with CDSS and collaborating SIAs. The CDPH
CFHL authority for these grant agreements is vested in the Federal-Healthy Hunger-
Free Kids Act of 2010 which established the Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention
Grant Program for eligible low-income individuals. The services in these grant
agreements are classified as direct services based on the funding authority. The
5
Exhibit D
services have been identified as 100 percent local assistance funding in our agency's
budget and meet the conditions of State Contracting Manual 3.17. The Grantee will
provide healthy eating and active living activities for SNAP-Ed eligible individuals and
families. The SNAP-Ed programmatic focus is outlined in the current USDA SNAP-Ed
Guidance. The California SNAP-Ed program administered through CDSS is 100 percent
federally funded through the USDA.

Exhibit D
GENERAL INFORMATION
Funding Application Purpose and Objective
CDPH CFHL is issuing a funding application request to LHDs or their designated non-
profit (classified as 501(c) (3) tax exempt under the Internal Revenue Code)for a three-
year grant period from October 1, 2023, to September 30, 2026. CDPH CFHL employs
a Local Health Department funding model for CFHL service delivery for the promotion
and protection of health among California's diverse communities. LHDs are sought for
their leadership in the practice of public health and policy development. The United
States Department of Agriculture, Western Regional Office (USDA/WRO), endorses the
LHD model of CDPH CFHL. Funding for each county is based on the county's portion of
California's total SNAP-Ed eligible population. Approximately $55 million is the
estimated annual funding amount available to LHDs (pending annual funding allocations
from USDA and CDSS, and final approval from the USDA/WRO).
The overall objective is to award funding for work with CFHL eligible participants to
provide evidenced based interventions and activities related to improving healthy eating
and active living behavior and environments. CDPH CFHL program funds account for
state and local health equity goals while meeting the program requirements. LHDs are
expected to serve populations with low-income (i.e., sites and settings serving > 50% of
persons with household incomes of< 185% of the Federal Poverty Level), and those
who are disproportionately impacted by obesity and chronic diseases related to diet and
physical activity. LHDs in counties with ethnic minorities that meet CFHL qualifications
should deliver interventions for those populations in a culturally appropriate manner. In
addition, USDA SNAP-Ed has strongly encouraged focusing on women and children in
households with low-incomes to increase the greatest potential impact. Additional
audience segments may be the focus of interventions and activities based on a local
needs assessment.
The guiding goals for this funding are to:
• Mobilize communities and institutions to transform policies and systems towards
a culture of equity, antiracism, healing and health for all people and our planet;
• Work collaboratively with community members and other partners to increase
impact, strengthen relationships between and across sectors, and ensure
sustainable outcomes;
• Optimize and enhance the food system to support a healthy diet;
• Adopt, implement, maintain, and support programs and policies that increase
access to and demand for healthy food;
• Adopt, implement, maintain, and support programs and policies that decrease
access to and demand for unhealthy food;
• Adopt, implement, maintain, and support programs and policies that promote
drinking water and restrict access to and consumption of sugar sweetened
beverages; and
• Adopt, implement, maintain, and support programs, policies, and enhancements
to the natural and built environment to increase physical activity opportunities.
Exhibit D
In addition to individual and/or group nutrition education, requirements of the funding
include policy, systems and environmental (PSE) change work. Cohesive, multi-level
public health interventions in multiple complementary settings are an essential part of a
comprehensive scope of work. All messaging must be consistent with the most current
Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) and MyPlate, and may not use SNAP-Ed funds
to convey negative written, visual, or verbal expressions about any specific brand of
food, beverage, or commodity.
Funding Amount and Timefrarne
Approximately$55 million is available each year to fund all LHDs or their designee.
Projected funding amounts can be viewed in the attachment titled FFY 2024-2026
CFHL LHD Funding Allocation Projections. Final funding allocation per LHD or their
designee will be provided after all Letters of Intent are submitted. Funding for the grants
is contingent on the continued availability of annual funds through the California CFHL
Plan, may change per fiscal year, and is subject to USDA SNAP-Ed Plan Guidance
requirements.
Successful applicants awarded a grant agreement from this Funding Application will be
eligible for a three-year grant agreement, beginning on October 1, 2023, and ending
September 30, 2026.
Applicants shall submit a three-year Integrated Work Plan (IWP) for Federal Fiscal Year

part of the CFHL IWP submittal process led by CDSS. Applicants shall submit one
budget worksheet per fiscal year. As a part of this application submission, applicants
must submit a budget worksheet for FFY 2024. Detailed budgets for FFY 2025 and
2026 will be collected through the annual State Plan process. The three-year grant
agreement will be for the total cumulative amount projected for LHD funding for FFY
2024-2026 (the FFY 2024-2026 CFHL LHD Funding Allocation Projections), plus a
defined proportional cushion, which increases the budget authority in the event funds

Programmatic Priorities
LHDs will use the FFY 2024-2026 CDPH CFHL Programmatic Priorities to guide the
development of LHD specific activities. The minimum work expected per LHD is
dependent upon the projected base funding amounts for FFY 2024, and the enactment
of the Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010. In addition, the depth, complexity, number
of activities and interventions that LHDs propose from the Programmatic Priorities, as
well as the number of Domains, Settings, and PSE Levels in which the LHD works,
should be appropriate for and align with each LHD's funding level. The following table
details the work LHDs must complete based on their Funding Tier.

2024-2026 CDPH CFHL LHD Funding Allocation Projections.
Reporting Income Targeting Data
All CFHL-funded programs must provide income-targeting data for the populations that
are served with USDA SNAP-Ed funding. The income targeting data source will verify
that the target audience meets the USDA SNAP-Ed funding guidelines, which are at or
below 185 percent of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). This includes education and PSE
change activities at the site, institutional and community/jurisdiction levels. The CDPH-
NEOPB Geographic Information System (GIS) mapping tool is available to assist in
identifying qualifying census tract data. Targeting information will be submitted as a part
of the CFHL State Plan submittal process led by CDSS.
Site List
CDPH CFHL funded programs must provide income-targeting data for the populations
they serve with USDA SNAP-Ed funding. Income targeting data verifies that proposed
CFHL services will be provided in approved communities, settings and sites, and that
the primary audience members have annual household incomes at or below 185
percent of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL).
As a part of the IFFY 2024-2026 Funding Application Package, applicants are required
to submit a completed CFHL IFFY 2024-2026 Site List (Site List) according to the CFHL
Site List submittal process led by CDSS. The Site List will include all the sites where
applicants plan to conduct CFHL activities as part of their grant agreements. The Site
List should be comprehensive and include only the sites in which applicants plan to
conduct CFHL activities over the three-year term of the grant agreement as noted in
their IFFY 2024-2026 IWP.
The Site List may be revised in each subsequent fiscal year according to the most
current Site List Revision Guide for LIAs found on the Resources page of the CDSS
CFHL SharePoint website. Site Lists that are revised are submitted for approval as part
of the annual State Plan during each designated time period within the fiscal year.
Applicants must qualify all sites listed on their Site List where they provide CFHL
services in accordance with the methodologies provided in the most current California
13
Exhibit D
SNAP-Ed Targeting Methodologies Summary posted in the Site Change Process
Resources section of the CDSS CFHL SharePoint site. Below are examples of datasets
that can be used to qualify CFHL sites.
Census Tract/Census Block Group Data:
Census tracts or Census block groups and other defined locations are areas where at
least 50 percent of persons have gross incomes that are less than 185 percent of the
Federal Poverty Level (FPL). CFHL has provided the most current American
Communities Survey (ACS) datasets in a modified, user-friendly format found on the
CDSS CFHL SharePoint Site to identify sites qualified for CFHL services.
• Applicants are required to use the most current ACS data to qualify eligible census
tracts below 185 percent of the FPL. Intervention sites may qualify by census tract
or census blocks. If the intervention site does not qualify by census tract, census
block data may be used.
• To complete the Site List as part of the FFY 2024-2026 Funding Application
Package, the three most current ACS datasets must be used for qualifying and
adding new sites to the Site List. New qualifying ACS datasets may become
available each fiscal year and a list of the most current datasets can be found on
the CDSS CFHL SharePoint site.
• When adding sites to the site list, applicants must use the most current datasets
first for qualifying sites, then moving to the next listed datasets only if sites do not
qualify under the more current data.
• If the CFHL activity is targeting a specific race/ethnicity, then a specific
race/ethnicity may be used to qualify the site. The ACS 2015-2019 (race and
ethnicity only) and the datasets noted above may be used in those instances. To
use this data, the site must have at least 50 percent of the identified audience fall
within the selected race/ethnicity category and this race/ethnicity category must be
checked off in Section A, Target Audience, Ethnicity and Race in the agency's FFY
2024-2026 IWP.
• The CDPH-NEOPB Geographic Information System (GIS) mapping tool may be
used to identify eligible census tracts for intervention sites as well.
Free and Reduced Price Meal(FRPM)Percentage Data:
Beginning in School Year(SY) 2022-23, California became the first state to implement
a statewide Universal Meals Program for school children. While school meals are
provided free of charge, the California Department of Education continues to collect
family income data from individual school sites. Schools where at least 50 percent of
children in the school receive free or reduced priced meals are considered eligible to
receive CFHL services. All school sites qualified by FRPM, or Child and Adult Care
Food Program (CACFP) data must be entered on the Site List. The most current FRPM
data is available on the CDSS CFHL SharePoint site at CDE FRPM Data 2021-2022
Version 2.0.
• If a school site cannot be qualified using the FRPM data provided and more
current FRPM data for the school site would qualify the school, the Food Service
Director of the site may be contacted to obtain the most current FRPM data. If the
14
Exhibit D
more recent Food Service data qualifies the school site, this information must be
included on the Site List. The backup documentation from the Food Service
Director (email, letter) verifying the more recent data must be kept on file by the
LHD and be made available upon request.
Additional Site Qualification Methods
For additional site qualification methods, refer to the California SNAP-Ed Targeting
Methodologies Summary posted on the Resource page of the CDSS, CFHL SharePoint
site and the Means Tested site qualification information in the Overall Purpose of
Funding Application section above.
Multiple LIAs working within o Site
Per USDA and CDSS guidance, more than one LIA (e.g., those funded by CDPH CFHL,
CDA, CFHL UC, CCC, and CDSS) may deliver Direct Education (DE) interventions at
the same site provided they are working with a different audience and with the
understanding that only one LIA is reporting the reach for the DE audience they worked
with. A qualified site can have multiple DE interventions with separate and distinct
audiences, implemented by the same or different LIA(s), if each LIA serves a different
audience and there is only one DE intervention for each audience.
A qualified site can have a mix of strategies and work plan activities conducted at the
same site and potentially at the same time. However, the mix of strategies and activities
can include only one DE activity per participant per site as noted above. It is possible to
include one or more additional PSE strategies and activities across the site or
participants. For example, a mix of PSE change activities could be implemented by
more than one LIA across multiple IWP activity categories and target audiences at the
same site to ensure a collaborative and comprehensive approach is received at the site.
LIAs are expected to collaborate and coordinate during the development of their IWPs
to ensure there are no duplicative activities at the same site. It is important that all CFHL
activities be complementary, collaborative, and comprehensive in approach and should
be conducted to strengthen the overall CFHL work within the jurisdiction.
Budget
An automated budget for FFY 2024 detailing the projected cost of the LHD component
of the local CFHL IWP must be submitted by each LHD by May 12, 2023. The
automated budget form will be made available for LHD completion by CDSS (FFY 2024
Budget will be posted on CDSS CFHL SharePoint site).
Detailed instructions for completing the automated budget form are available on the
CDSS CFHL SharePoint site under Resources. Additional information and resources
are available within the CDPH CFHL Administrative Guidelines Manual (AGM).
Grantees must adhere to USDA, CDSS, and CDPH CFHL deadlines to meet required
timely submission of the CFHL State Plan and supporting grant and deliverables.
Failure to comply with the timeline will cause lengthy delays in the contracting process
or loss of the opportunity to receive an agreement with CDPH CFHL. In addition,
15
Exhibit D
Grantees will be required to adhere to the CDPH AGM and any Program Letters
throughout the year.
Subgranting
Subgranting is an expectation, and CDPH CFHL expects that a portion of the LHD
allocation is subgranted to reach the state's diverse population adequately and
appropriately. Each health jurisdiction will determine the level of subgranting based on
work plan requirements and eligible subgrantees. Subgrantees, including school-based
organizations (SBOs), community-based organizations (CBOs), and local cities with a
high proportion of Californians with low incomes, should be chosen based on their
capacity and ability to complete the LHD components of the local Integrated Work Plan
working with the most vulnerable eligible populations. Equity priorities should be
considered when making subgranting decisions such as how subgrantees are recruited,
which subgrantees are chosen, and what their scopes of work entail. Reflecting on and
implementing subgranting practices that ensure subgrantees reflect the communities
with which they intend to work is an important way to support equity priorities. LHDs are
encouraged to find ways to fund CFHL-eligible community members as part of program
planning, implementation, and support. Examples can include funding community
engagement agreements or community representative roles (such as subject matter
experts) through their subgrant agreements.
Staffing
The size and expertise of the LHD staff will depend in large part on the funding level.
Language-specific and cultural competencies are needed for reaching California's
diverse population, along with skills in promoting health equity, PSE implementation,
health promotion, community engagement, business, organizational-level, and
community-level public health approaches. It is recommended that LHD staff reference
the tier-based Core Competencies for Public Health Professionals when staffing
appropriate CFHL-funded positions. Funded LHDs are expected to meet the following
staffing positions and/or expertise:
• One full-time Project Director. The Project Director is expected to have a Master's
in Public Health (MPH), or an equivalent degree, or three years' experience as a
Public Health Project Director implementing multi-level public health programs.
• Nutrition expertise (Registered Dietitian, R.D.) is expected to be part of the staffing
of this grant or the LHD should have access to a R.D., should the Project Director
not have this expertise. Access to evaluation expertise ensures ongoing and as
needed competence for evaluating program effectiveness.
• Adequate fiscal and administrative support.
Grantee Information
Applicants must ensure that the information provided is up to date on the Grantee
Information Form (GIF). An updated GIF is to be provided to the assigned Contract
Manager if any changes occur throughout the grant term.
16
Exhibit D
Letter of Agreement of Memorandum of Understanding (when applicable)
If CFHL activities are provided in conjunction with other federally funded nutrition
education programs, then a letter of agreement is required to delineate the
responsibilities of each program to demonstrate collaboration and prevent
supplantation. In addition, all CFHL activities that address the topic of breastfeeding
must be planned and implemented in collaboration with the State Women, Infant, and
Children (WIC) agency. The WIC Program should have the lead and primary role in all
breastfeeding activities with CFHL supplementing existing WIC activities. A written
agreement such as an Inter-Agency Agreement or Memorandum of Understanding
stating the degree of collaboration and the specific responsibilities of WIC (i.e., staff,
duties, and time) and CFHL shall be signed by all collaborating agencies and
maintained for inspection. CFHL can advance breastfeeding in its programming through
such activities as working on lactation policies and promotion at childcare facilities
and/or other community venues.
OTHER APPLICANT INFORMATION
Project Reporting— Program and Administrative
For each year of the three-year grant period, CDPH CFHL funded projects will be
required to submit a Biannual Progress Report consisting of a Mid-Year Report due
April 15 and Year-End Report at the end of each Federal Fiscal Year due October 15.
These reports will be submitted via email to the CDPH CFHL Project Officer assigned to
the Grantee.
Project Reporting— Evaluation
A detailed description of reporting requirements for evaluation are as follows:
PEARS
LHDs must use the online Program Evaluation and Reporting System (PEARS) to
provide information necessary to complete federally required reporting. Additionally,
PEARS is used to report program and evaluation activities and outcomes of interest to
CFHL. PEARS is designed to link data with local, state, and national objectives,
allowing CDPH CFHL and LHDs to more effectively measure and report program
impact. LHDs will report their activities, including SIA-specific custom fields and
supplemental surveys, in the following PEARS modules:
• Program Activities: LHDs must report all direct education activities in the
Program Activities module. Direct education takes place when a participant is
actively engaged in the learning process with an educator and/or interactive
media within an evidence-based intervention. Program Activities entries require
session dates and length, participant demographics, and information about
program objectives.
• Indirect Activities: LHDs must report all distribution of information and
resources, including any mass communications, community events, interviews,
advertisements, materials distributions, and LHD-specific social marketing
17
Exhibit D
activities that are not considered direct education in the Indirect Activities
module.
• PSE: LHDs must use the PSE module to track efforts to make policy, system,
and environment (PSE) changes at all stages from planning to maintenance. This
module should be completed for all sites and organizations that are involved in
SNAP-Ed supported PSE efforts. LHDs will also be required to track their specific
efforts related to organization-level, community-level, and government
jurisdiction-related PSE work, through supplemental questions or surveys
available via PEARS.
• Success Stories: LHDs must submit at least one PSE-related success story
annually by September 30 each year of the grant period. It is preferred that
success stories are related to the stated FFY 2024-2026 LHD Programmatic
Priorities. The story should relate to PSE efforts that happened during the
Federal Fiscal Year in which it took place and follow the Success Story
Instructions provided by CDPH CFHL.
• Partnerships: LHDs must use this module to report any site level (e.g.,
elementary school), organization (e.g., school district), or complementary site
partnerships activity during a reporting year. Active partnerships may include two
or more individuals or organizations who regularly meet, exchange information,
identify and implement mutually reinforcing activities that will contribute to
organizational changes or policies.
• Coalitions: LHDs must use this module to report any multi-sector coalition
activities during a reporting year. This may include County Nutrition Action
Partnerships (CNAPs) or other relevant collective impact initiatives.
Activities may be reported in PEARS on an ongoing basis throughout the year. PEARS
reporting for each Federal Fiscal Year (October 1 —September 30) must be completed
by the deadline shared annually by CDPH.
Assessment Tool Data
Site level assessment tools are intended to assist with program planning and can be
used to assess changes in institutional policies and practices overtime. All LHDs must
complete an assessment of each site where they are doing site-level PSE CFHL work in
settings where an assessment tool has been created or recommended by NPI.
Standardized tools, referred to as SLAQs (site-level assessment questionnaires) and
LACs (LHD Activity Checklists) have been developed and tested and are required for
schools, early childhood education sites (ECE), out-of-school time (OST) programs, and
stores. In addition to SLAQs, an organization-level assessment will be required for
school districts involved in district-level PSE efforts using a combination of WeIISAT and
an Organization Assessment Questionnaire (OAQ) developed and tested for school
districts. For CFHL work occurring in other settings (e.g., food pantries, farmers'
markets, other organizations, etc.), LHDs may choose to use another assessment tool
until a SLAQ, OAQ, and/or LAC becomes available, or another standardized instrument
is required for that setting.
18
Exhibit D
Assessments should take place once each year that CFHL-supported PSE interventions
will be occurring and before implementation begins. Sites should already be engaged
and on-board before assessments occur. LACs should be completed at the end of the
year after all activities for a given year have occurred. LHDs with a larger number of
site-level PSE sites within a setting may work with a state-level evaluation liaison to
develop an alternative assessment strategy. Assessments do not need to be conducted
at sites that only host education and no PSE efforts.

Impact and Outcome Evaluation (IOE)
If series-based direct education is carried out with 4th-12th grade students in the school
or school-based after school setting, then an LHD (at any funding Tier) must evaluate
intervention(s) in the LEARN Setting. The number of sites required for the LHD to
evaluate will be based on funding tier. LHDs must collect pre and post behavioral
outcome data from intervention sites using the Eating and Activity Tool for Students. To
the extent possible, LHDs should evaluate their earliest occurring interventions in the
fiscal year. Pre- and post-testing should occur at the beginning and end of school year,
regardless of timing of direct education implementation. Technical assistance will be
available by Nutrition Policy Institute CFHL staff throughout the year, including during
19
Exhibit D
FFY 2023 to support planning, to ensure the guidelines are applied to produce valid
evaluation results as well as to fit unique situations.

All LHDs (regardless of funding tier) utilizing an adult direct education curriculum
consisting of four or more sessions delivered over four or more weeks must collect pre
and post behavioral outcome data using the CFHL Adult Survey. LHDs delivering class
series adult direct education that does not meet these criteria are exempt. Technical

Introduction
The Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention Branch (NEOPB) of the California
Department of Public Health (CDPH) serves California through statewide, regional, and
local partnerships, programs, and policy initiatives to promote healthy eating, physical
activity, and nutrition security with an emphasis on communities with the greatest health
disparities. NEOPB's vision is "well-nourished, physically active Californians living in
healthy communities."All NEOPB activities aim to fulfill the Branch mission and
vision, and programmatic priorities are derived from these values.
CDPH is one of several organizations in California that receive grant funding for
nutrition education and obesity prevention efforts from the United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA) Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program-Education (SNAP-Ed).
SNAP-Ed is known as CalFresh Healthy Living (CFHL) in California, and CDPH
identifies as CDPH CFHL for the purposes of implementing this program. CFHL aims to
reduce the prevalence of overweight and obesity among California's SNAP-Ed eligible
individuals through educational strategies, and multi-level organizational and
community-wide public health approaches that support healthy behaviors at multiple
socioeconomic levels of influence. CDPH CFHL issues this funding to Local
Implementing Agencies (LIAs)for SNAP-Ed service delivery through Local Health
Departments (LHDs) or their designees.
During Federal Fiscal Years (IFFY) 2024-2026, CDPH CFHL supported work will aim to
create change at the individual, organizational and community levels. This work will
focus on specific programmatic priorities, strategies, and settings to increase the reach
and impact of CFHL in California. To facilitate a focused approach, the local IFFY 2024-
2026 Integrated Work Plan (IWP) will consist of a set menu of options—titled the IWP
Blueprint Packet—that will define the allowable CFHL work at the local level. This menu
of options will include a list of allowable settings for specific Policy, Systems, and
Environmental Change (PSE) strategies with specified sub-strategies. There will be
required core and optional complementary sub-strategies that support each of the
broader PSE Strategies. Each sub-strategy selected will have a defined activity table
with appropriate activities for each selected PSE strategy. LIAs will be able to specify
which activities are appropriate for their work given their capacity and program
progression to date. Direct and Indirect Education activities, along with others, will be
reflected in the PSE sub-strategy activity tables. The LIAs will also add integrated local
projection numbers for their work with participants and partners to local three-year
objectives, shared statewide, tied to priority CFHL work. These include objectives for
community engagement, sustainability, direct education, and partnership and coalition
work. More information on the IFFY 2024-2026 IWP Blueprint will be released in
1
Exhibit D
December 2022 by the CFHL lead State Implementing Agency (SIA), the California
Department of Social Services (CDSS).
The statewide CFHL program requires each county (or city in some cases, referred to
as an IWP jurisdiction)to submit an IWP that incorporates the work of all CFHL-funded
Local Implementing Agencies, including the CDPH CFHL-funded LHDs, in one
complete projected work plan. The IWPs include two sections: Section A, which
establishes local need, priorities, partnerships and a narrative justification and
explanation of the plan. Section B can be developed using the current CFHL IWP
Blueprint Packet, which includes a menu of available PSE Strategies and Sub-
strategies and their applicable PSE Settings, and the CalFresh Healthy Living
Integrated Curricula List to establish Direct Education plans. CDPH CFHL-funded LHDs
must follow the IWP Blueprint Packet guidance to determine which Sub-strategies are
allowable in which settings, apart from proposed and approved innovative work. See the
IWP Blueprint Packet and the IWP submission instructions for full guidance. CDPH
CFHL-funded LHDs must follow all CDSS and CDPH guidance and deadlines provided
to complete the IWP submission process as a portion of this Funding Application
Package.
Within the IWP Blueprint structure and submission, CDPH CFHL has selected specific
Programmatic Priorities for funded LHDs. Programmatic Priorities are exclusive to
the CFHL LHD implementers and must be incorporated into the overall work plan
within Section A and Section B along with the selected PSE Strategies. For FFY
2024-2026, the following LHD Programmatic Priorities serve as guidelines that LHDs
will use to complete their three-year local CFHL IWP and CFHL grant deliverables.
CDPH CFHL will use the submitted IWP to generate the LHD's Scope of Work (SOW)
for the LHD's three-year grant agreement with CDPH CFHL. For details of the CDPH
CFHL funding application and requirements, refer to the CDPH CFHL FFY 2024-2026
Funding Application Package (FAP). The overarching programmatic priorities for FFY
2024-2026 are:
• Advancing Equity
• Healthy Beverage Consumption and Purchases
• Supporting PSE Change at the Community Level and in Priority PSE Settings
• Reaching and Impacting Youth

Programmatic Priority Expectations and Deliverables
The minimum amount of work each LHD grantee is required to do is based on projected
funding amounts for IFFY 2024. For more detail refer to the LHD Funding Tiers in the
Funding Application Package (FAP).
Throughout this document, items identified by bolded text signify a FAP grant
deliverable related to the programmatic priorities established below. For a summary of
all LHD FAP grant deliverables and the exact deliverable requirement, see the LHD IFFY
24-26 Deliverables document. The deliverables document states where to place efforts
planned to address the priorities in the IWP (within Section A, B, or both), and how to
report on progression and outcomes of the work related to the priorities (in PEARS or
other required reports and documentation).
Programmatic Priorities: Background and Description
As a part of the FFY 2017 USDA Western Regional Office Management Evaluation of
California's CFHL program, the USDA recommended that the SIAs provide the LHDs
(and other LIAs)with a defined menu of options for their CFHL workplans. This allows
for the development and implementation of focused local work plans that are rooted in
evidence-based, effective strategies. The IWP Blueprint was created in partnership with
CDPH CFHL internal program and evaluation staff, LHD staff(as well as other LIAs),
other CFHL SIAs, and external subject matter expert stakeholders.
Programmatic Priorities: Consideration and Inclusion Criteria
To inform the development of Programmatic Priorities for LHDs, CDPH CFHL created
and has updated a list of criteria to align with the CFHL State Goals and Objectives,
CFHL Principles and Priorities, CFHL IWP Blueprint and further CDPH goals. The
programmatic priorities are in line with the identified strategies and settings within the
CFHL documents stated above. CDPH CFHL developed the FFY 2024-2026 LHD
Programmatic Priorities based on these eight criteria:
• Evidence-based: effectiveness and impact of specific priorities at changing
environments, health behaviors and/or weight status through research-tested,
practice-tested, and/or emerging or innovative strategies.
• Equity: Ensure the selection of priorities and practices are linked to established
and defined inequities and work to advance health equity.
• Feasibility: strategies are appropriate and feasible based on staff size and
capacity to implement.
• Maximizes impact in the community: have significant reach and impact across
the socio-ecological model with an emphasis on upstream efforts.
• Aligns with existing priorities and indicators in California: look to CDPH, California
Health and Human Services Agency and statewide priorities that promote equity,
healthy eating and active living.
• Timing: when applicable, reasonable, and achievable in a defined timetable
• Leverage: can be leveraged by other known funding and programming either
internally or externally to drive partnership and greatest impact.
4
Exhibit D
• Momentum: has support in the field gained by existing priorities or by a series of
events; opportunity to capitalize on timely local and/or state priorities that align
with other priorities and goals.
When determining programmatic priorities, CDPH CFHL reviewed and adhered to the
USDA SNAP-Ed Plan Guidance. Additional inputs included established obesity
prevention programmatic recommendations such as Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) Overweight and Obesity Prevention Strategies & Guidelines, The
Community Guide, County Health Rankings & Roadmaps, the CDC's Practitioner's
Guide for Advancing Health Equity, Voices for Healthy Kids, and the National
Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine's Accelerating Progress in Obesitv
Prevention: Solving the Weight of the Nation.
Programmatic Priorities: Guiding Goals
Based on the selected programmatic priorities, consideration and inclusion criteria, and
a review of the established obesity prevention programmatic recommendations, and
CFHL Principles and Priorities, CDPH CFHL created the following guiding goals for
CFHL funded LHDs:
• Mobilize communities and institutions to transform policies and systems towards
a culture of equity, antiracism, healing and health for all people and our planet;
• Work collaboratively with community members and other partners to increase
impact, strengthen relationships between and across sectors, and ensure
sustainable outcomes;

Programmatic Priorities: Advancing Equity
Advancing Equity is a primary goal of CDPH and the CDPH CFHL team. Despite
decades of efforts to reduce and eliminate health disparities, they persist—and in some
cases, they are widening among some population groups. Addressing racial and health
equity means that every person has an opportunity to achieve optimal health regardless
of:
• The color of their skin
• Level of education
• Gender identity
• Sexual orientation
• The job they have
• The neighborhood they live in
5
Exhibit D
• Whether or not they have a disability
While health inequities and disparities can be addressed at multiple levels, CDPH CFHL
focuses on PSE improvement strategies designed to improve the places where people
live, learn, work, shop, eat, and play. To maximize the health effects for all and reduce
health inequities, it is important to consider the following:
• Different strategies require varying levels of individual or community effort and
resources, which may affect who benefits and at what rate.
• Certain population groups may face barriers to or negative unintended
consequences from certain strategies. Such barriers can limit the strategy's
effect and worsen the disparity.
• Population groups experiencing health disparities have further to go to attain their
full health potential, so even with equitable implementation, health effects may
vary.
• Health equity should not only be considered when designing interventions. To
help advance the goal, health equity should be considered in other aspects of
public health practice (e.g., organizational capacity, partnerships, evaluation).
CDPH CFHL acknowledges that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to addressing
disparities and inequities in communities. CDPH CFHL recommends using the CDC's
A Practitioner's Guide for Advancing Health Equity to provide guidance on how to
operationalize the skills and practices below. CDPH CFHL funded LHDs are expected
to consider the following, among others, when identifying their CFHL work:
• Building Organizational Capacity
o Establish an institutional commitment to advance health equity
o Where possible, align funding and sub-granting decisions with your
commitment to equity
o Be deliberate in recruiting and building staff skills to advance equity
• Engaging Community Members
o Understand historical context before developing engagement strategies
o Build community relationships and establish trust; maintain
relationships
o Select engagement techniques appropriate to your context
o Understand barriers
o Support and build the community's capacity to act
o Value both lived community experience and professional expertise
• Developing Partnerships and Coalitions
o Engage partners from many fields and sectors
o Include those working with populations experiencing health inequities
• Identifying and Analyzing Health Inequities
o Do not rely on assumptions about health inequities in program planning
o Use appropriate tools to identify health inequities
o Value both community and technical expertise
• Selecting, Designing, and Implementing Strategies
o Balance community input and best available evidence
o Select a set of comprehensive approaches, strategies, and settings
6

o Support and build the community's capacity to act
• Developing Effective Communication Efforts
o Support the case for equity with relevant data
o Highlight solutions when framing messages around equity
Programmatic Priority: Healthy Beverage Consumption and Purchases
CDPH CFHL will place an emphasis on limiting purchases and decreased consumption
of sugar sweetened beverages (SSBs) as the primary behavioral strategy for
implementation in FFY 2024-2026. This core behavioral strategy is supported by
various PSE sub-strategies, including but not limited to nutrition standards,
procurement, wellness policies, and places that sell beverages, and a complementary
PSE sub-strategy to increase access to and the consumption of safe drinking water.
Consumption of SSBs is more strongly linked to obesity than any other single type of
food or beverage and is the largest contributor of added sugar in the diet, and promotion
of water consumption complements and strengthens other efforts to discourage SSB
consumption.
Therefore, all settings and sites involved in CDPH CFHL nutrition supported
efforts should include (but not necessarily be limited to) efforts to reduce access
to and consumption of SSBs. This can be achieved through education and/or PSE
efforts. Examples of applicable PSE Strategies include Healthy Default, Nutrition
Standards, Access to Healthy Food, and others. Examples of PSE Settings include
Restaurants, Retail, Before and After School, and others. Additional programmatic
supports, including trainings, materials, resources, and tools, will be made available as
part of the IWP Blueprint and CFHL Statewide Training to guide local program planning
and implementation.
Programmatic Priorities: Supporting PSE Change at the Community Level and in Priority PSE
Settings
Priority PSE Settings
The following define the CDPH CFHL priority Domains and PSE Settings for the CDPH
CFHL funded PSE change work in FFY 2024-2026. As stated in the Funding Tier
Requirements listed in the FAP, all LHDs must complete some (but not
necessarily all) of their PSE work in the following established priority PSE
settings. These Domains and PSE Settings have been established based on the
Consideration and Inclusion Criteria and existing behavior change evidence. The
following priority settings (Table 1) are to be utilized for selected PSE Strategy
implementation as submitted by LHDs in the IWP. Beyond the Funding Tier requirement
of PSE work in at least one priority setting, the remaining IWP PSE work can be done in
any available PSE settings in the IWP Blueprint. Direct and Indirect Education activities
can occur in any qualified SNAP-Ed site that reaches the local defined, intended
audience. All IWPs must be submitted as a cohesive approach as detailed in the
Section A Intervention and Evaluation Plan Narrative and be supported by selected
work in Section B.

Programmatic Priorities:PSE Levels
The following constitute the required levels of PSE work for CFHL LHDs in their
efforts to address the guiding goals. These levels can be applied to appropriate IWP
Blueprint Strategies and Sub-strategies in addition to allowable community goals
established in Section A of the IWP. As indicated in the Funding Tier requirements,
combinations of the PSE Sub-strategies at different PSE Levels across settings below
should create a cohesive and comprehensive overall work plan approach.
PSE Levels:
Level 1: Site PSE Changes: Targeted CFHL allowable activities to establish,
implement and sustain written policies, systems, and environmental changes
through comprehensive programming at the site level (e.g., at a school or store).
Policies are meant to address the established CFHL statewide, CDPH and LHD
priorities.
Level 2: Organizational PSE Changes: Targeted CFHL allowable activities to
establish, implement and sustain written policies, systems, and environmental
changes at the multi-site level. Multi-site level work is referred to as "organization
or institutional' level in the USDA SNAP-Ed Program Guidance and Evaluation
Framework. Work could include, for example, activities at a school district, ECE
chain, and/or chain store corporate office and is intended to influence multiple
sites under their jurisdiction. Policies are meant to address the established CFHL
statewide, CDPH and LHD priorities.
Level 3: Community PSE Changes: Targeted CFHL allowable activities to
establish, implement and sustain written policies, systems, and environmental
changes at the community level. Community or areawide level work is defined as
work in neighborhoods, communities, and jurisdictions (e.g., cities, towns,
districts, and counties). Community level efforts may involve work to mobilize
multiple sectors (stores, schools, whole of government, etc.)to benefit the CFHL-
eligible population across a larger geographic area through PSE changes.
Policies are meant to address the established CFHL statewide, CDPH and LHD
priorities.

Exhibit D
select a targeted age range or set of age ranges within the overall youth segment (e.g.,
4th graders, 2-5-year-old children, high school students, etc.). LHDs may select from the
list of available IWP Blueprint strategies, sub-strategies, and settings to fulfill this
priority. A selected PSE sub-strategy that targets youth must be a part of a cohesive,
comprehensive overall approach to community work.
While any of the allowable PSE Settings are available, LHDs are encouraged to engage
youth in the LEARN Domain, specifically in two priority Settings (Early Care and
Education (ECE) and Schools). The ECE and Schools settings were selected for priority
focus as research indicates that youth who are overweight or obese are more likely to
remain so into adulthood, thus a focus on early intervention is imperative. The ECE and
Schools settings are prioritized over other youth settings due to their high potential for
reach and consistent access to the same group of youth. Additionally, interventions in
the School and ECE settings are well-documented and proven effective.
The youth-focused PSE effort can also satisfy the Funding Tier requirement of at least
one PSE effort undertaken in the established "priority" PSE settings if it occurs in one of
the 10 priority settings (see following section for more details). See the FFY 2024-2026
Funding Application Package for more information regarding funding tier requirements.
Steps for Building Local Integrated Work Plans
Sections A and B of the IWP have been updated to reflect FFY 24-26 CFHL principles
and priorities, as well as statewide goals and objectives. The instructions have been
updated as well. The information below is additional supportive information for
completing the IWP.
Community Goals, Intended Impact, Domains and Settings, and PSE Strategies
Community goals and community needs assessments support LHDs in identifying:
1. Population intended for impact (in terms of geographic location and demographic
characteristics);
2. Domains and settings where the program can most effectively reach a significant
number of CFHL-eligible participants;
3. Applicable and appropriate PSE strategies for each setting, and;
4. Community level work that supports a large portion of the CFHL-eligible
population and aligns with community change goals and site/organizational level
interventions.
Identification of Domains, PSE Settings, Sites and PSE strategies must be done in
conjunction with community members and local, trusted organizations (see
Advancing Equity section above and in the LHD Deliverables document). PSE
strategies selected at the site and organizational level (PSE Levels 1 and 2) should
align with any community or jurisdiction level work (PSE Level 3)to address locally
determined CFHL goals. See the IWP planning tools to support planning.
Once all planning is complete, LHDs will add work plan content to the CDSS CFHL
SharePoint site that houses the automated IWP forms for submission. After PSE
10
Exhibit D
strategies are selected, Section B will automatically populate with activity tables for
each strategy/setting pairing. LHDs, and any applicable LIA partners, must make each
activity specific to their local work by adding specific narrative text to the sub-strategy
activity tables in the IWP Automation site. Some activities may apply to multiple sub-
strategies and/or settings. See the IWP Blueprint Packet for details and ideas for each
PSE Sub-strategy activity.
Work with Local Partners
LHDs are encouraged and expected to work with all appropriate partners to ensure that
CFHL work is maximizing impact within their selected target population. Partners should
include the members of the community you aim to serve and include CFHL-funded and
unfunded organizations and agencies. LHDs are highly encouraged to work with chronic
disease prevention and cross-sector partners (through diverse multi-sector coalitions
and otherwise)to enhance individual CFHL work plan deliverables and to support
comprehensive, collaborative community-wide health initiatives. Work within County
Nutrition Action Partnership groups (or similar county-wide coalitions and/or
collaboratives) can assist with the maintenance of multi-sector partnerships and can
contribute to mutually advantageous outcomes for partners and the communities they
serve.

5. Executive Order N-6-22 - Economic Sanctions
On March 4, 2022, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order N-6-22 (the EO) regarding
Economic Sanctions against Russia and Russian entities and individuals. "Economic Sanctions"
refers to sanctions imposed by the U.S. government in response to Russia's actions in Ukraine, as
well as any sanctions imposed under state law. The EO directs state agencies to terminate
contracts with, and to refrain from entering any new contracts with, individuals or entities that are
determined to be a target of Economic Sanctions. Accordingly, should the State determine Grantee
is a target of Economic Sanctions or is conducting prohibited transactions with sanctioned
individuals or entities, that shall be grounds for termination of this Agreement. The State shall
provide Grantee advance written notice of such termination, allowing Grantee at least 30 calendar
days to provide a written response. Termination shall be at the sole discretion of the State.
Prior to awarding and executing grant, the State shall conduct its due diligence to determine if the
proposed awardee is a named individual or entity on federal and any state Economic Sanctions
lists. If the proposed awardee is listed, the State shall refrain from entering into the Grant.
Resources for locating names of sanctioned individuals and entities are available on the DGS Office
of Legal Services' webpage: Ukraine-Russia (ca.-gov).

Current State Employees (Pub. Contract Code §10410):
