SUBJECT: Nurse Family Partnership Program Training
Contract
Enclosed for Board review and approval is a contract between the Weld County Department of
Public Health and Environment (WCDPHE) and the Regents of the University of Colorado on
behalf of the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center (UCHSC).
Earlier this year the Board approved a task order as part of the Master Contract between the
Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and Weld County for the provision of
county-wide nurse home visitor services to low-income, first-time mothers. WCDPHE will hire
four nurses, a half-time nurse supervisor, and a half-time office technician to implement the
program. Under the provisions of this contract, USCSC will provide training to these staff
members on the basic program models, Perinatal Guidelines, Infancy Guidelines, Partners in
Parenting Education, Toddler Guidelines, and data management of the clinical information
system developed by UCHSC to track progress of the program and other evaluation data.
For these training services, WCDPHE will pay UCHSC the sum of $35,721 out of funding from
the Nurse Family Partnership task order mentioned above. If approved, the contract will be
effective March 26, 2001 and terminate on March 25, 2004.
As this training is a requirement of the Nurse Family Partnership grant, I recommend your
approval of the contract.
