Attachment 1 NACCHO National Association of County & City Health Officials The National Connection for Local Public Health November 30, 2015 Dear William: Congratulations! On behalf of the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO), I am pleased to announce that Lee County Health Department has been selected to participate as a mentee local health department in the Voluntary National Retail Food Regulatory Program Standards (Retail Program Standards) Mentorship Program. Your jurisdiction is one of 27 sites selected to collaborate and partner directly with NACCHO through support from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It is exciting to have so much interest from around the country in this important community collaboration focused on building capacity for integrating the Retail Program Standards at local health departments. Your jurisdiction will be matched with mentor, Pitt County Environmental Health (NC), who will be providing guidance on Standard 9 as indicated in your application. NACCHO is pleased to award funding in the amount of $7,000.00 for the period December 2015 — August 31, 2016. Due to the number of qualified applications received, we were not able to award all selected participants in the amounts proposed. Next Steps: • Please confirm your acceptance by December 4, 2015 to Tiara Smith (tsmith(a,naccho.org). • Since the awarded amount is different from the originally proposed budget, please complete the attached Budget Request Form (see attached directions for further clarification) and return to Tiara Smith (tsmith(&naccho.org) by December 4, 2015 • The plan is to schedule an orientation call in the coming weeks. You will receive separate requests via email through Meeting Wizard asking for your availability in identifying a date and time that works for all selected local health departments participating in the mentorship program. • Upon meeting with your mentor, you will be expected to review and revise your work plan and deliverables as appropriate. Please use the attached draft action plan as your template. Submit completed action plan, with assistance from your mentor, to Tiara Smith (tsmith(&naccho. or a). • Upon receipt of the Vendor Information Form, a contractual agreement will be forwarded via email in the coming weeks.
