The second additional Funding is to increase by: $25,000. Justification: Due to ongoing programmatic need, the Equipping Local Health Departments to Build COVID-19 Vaccine Confidence (7841) project is implementing a contract extension which will extend the project period beyond the original end date of December 31, 2022, to July 31, 2023, and add $25,000 to the original funding amount. The extension will allow the contractor sufficient time and resources to meet additional deliverables per the adjusted Scope of Work which will strengthen the original project intent. Adjustments to the initial budget and SOW have been made to reflect the contract extension. Project Background Through the Equipping Local Health Departments to Build COVID-19 Vaccine Confidence project, NACCHO supports LHDs to improve COVID-19 vaccine confidence and address misinformation at the community level in partnership with local trusted community messengers. Through this project, LHDs will receive training, technical assistance, and other resources to increase equitable COVID-19 vaccine uptake, particularly among priority populations disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 disease and complications. LHDs will receive support to facilitate collaborations and partnerships with community stakeholders to support messaging for COVID-19 vaccination. Objectives With support from NACCHO, Jefferson County Public Health seeks to meet the objectives below: 1. Identify communities at -risk for low vaccine uptake and are hesitant to get vaccinated to better understand the local community's vaccine needs and decisions and identify areas of intervention and prioritize potential intervention strategies. 2. Collaborate and partner with other community organizations and stakeholders to improve education and outreach to identified communities impacted by vaccine hesitancy and misinformation. 3. Identify model and sustainable approaches to addressing vaccine hesitancy at the local jurisdiction level.
