53. ACCEPT GRANT FUNDS FROM NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COUNTY & CITY HEALTH OFFICIALS FOR 2023 MEDICAL RESERVE COVID-19 RISE AWARD Approve the Letter of Award of grant funds from the National Association of County & City Health Officials (NACCHO) in the not-to-exceed amount of $10,000.00 for the 2023 Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) Respond, Innovate, Sustain, and Equip (RISE) program. The project and budget period for this award is from April 26, 2023, through September 29, 2023. The Term of the Agreement shall begin from the Effective Date and shall continue until September 29, 2023. This is the fourth award time the program has been granted the RISE Award and if a new round occurs, the Program will most likely apply. It was a competitive grant opportunity. There are no cash or in-kind match requirements, and on-going contributions will not be required. This is not a mandated service but provides a benefit to our citizens by improving upon the capacity building of our MRC volunteers to meet emergency management and response needs; currently COVID-19 and the increase in needed volunteers and trainings. MCDPH indirect rate for FY23 is 17.24%. The full indirect costs are estimated at $1,470.49 all of which is recoverable. Departmental indirect rates are reestablished at the beginning of each fiscal year and the future indirect rates will be collected at the corresponding rates. (C-86-23-132-X-00)
