The revised Statement of Work is effective October 1, 2009. 1. The United State Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS"), through the Maternal and Child Health Services Block Grant (MCH) has awarded the State Title V federal funds under Notice of Grant Award ("NGA) number B04MC04248 (See, Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance ("CFDA") number 93.994). The State's Prevention Services Division (PSD) is charged with the administration of funds from the Title V MCH Block Grant to improve the health and well being of the maternal and child/adolescent populations through assessing population needs, influencing health policy, engaging in strategic planning and coordinating/implementing best practices and evidenced -based programs. The authority for the administration of the Title V MCH Block Grant, including the maternal, child and children with special health care needs resides in Title V of the Social Security Act, §§ 501-509. Each state that receives MCH funds from the HHS must demonstrate to the HHS that it has served three (3) distinct population groups with the MCH funds. These three (3) distinct population groups are: "the perinatal population", which is defined to include women of childbearing age, pregnant women, and mothers; the "child and youth population", which is defined to include infants, children, and adolescents from birth through age twenty (20); and, the "children with special health care needs population" (CSHCN), which is defined as those children who have, or are at increased risk for a chronic physical, developmental, behavioral, or emotional condition and who also require health and related services of a type or amount beyond that required by children generally. The State has formulated a comprehensive statewide plan to carry out a Maternal and Child Health Program, funded by Title V MCH dollars. As part of the comprehensive plan, it is the express intent of the state to support local public health agencies in contributing to a coordinated, efficient statewide program which focuses on specific MCH performance measures set by the MCH state and Federal agencies. Local public health agencies, working in partnership with other community organizations, facilitate the development and enhancement of community -based systems of care for the maternal, and child population. The goal of these systems is to ensure that all families have access to direct care services, as well as, enabling and population -based services that address the issues and health problems delineated in the MCH performance measures. If the underlying Award authorizes the State to pay all allowable and allocable expenses of a contractor as of the effective date of that Award, then the State shall reimburse the Contractor for any allowable and allocable expenses of the Contractor that have been incurred by the Contractor since the proposed effective date of this Contract. If the underlying Award does not authorize the State to pay all allowable and allocable expenses of a contractor as of the effective date of that Award, then the State shall only reimburse the Contractor for those allowable and allocable expenses of the Contractor that are incurred by the Contractor on or after the effective date of this Contract, with such effective date being the later of the date specified in this Contract or the date the Contract is signed by the State Controller or delegee. 2.
