PASS -AROUND REVIEW
PASS -AROUND TITLE: Northeast Health Partners, LLC Grant Application for Diabetes Prevention Program
DEPARTMENT: Public Health and Environment DATE: July 8, 2025
PERSON REQUESTING: Jason Chessher, Executive Director Department of Public Health and Environment
Brief description of the problem/issue: On June 4th, the Board authorized a grant application in the amount
of $25,000 to be utilized for consumable supplies for the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP). The DPP aims
to prevent individuals with pre -diabetes from progressing to type 2 diabetes through coaching to improve healthy
lifestyle habits. This funding will make the program more accessible to Weld County residents by increasing
health care provider referrals and eliminating the cost to participate. The grant application was funded at $10,000
and the department seeks Board approval of the grant contract.
What options exist for the Board? The Board can choose to approve, or not approve the grant contract.
Consequences: Approval of this grant award will permit WCDPHE to expand diabetes prevention
programming by increasing medical provider referrals and cover the costs for qualifying individuals to
participate in the program.
Impacts: Declining the grant award may reduce access to the DPP for those unable to purchase supplies
necessary to participate and decrease program enrollment due to fewer community partner referrals.
Costs (Current Fiscal Year / Ongoing or Subsequent Fiscal Years): There is no associated county
cost. 10,000 has been awarded for program implementation with no additional FTE. The grant agreement
is effective 07/2025 through 06/2026.
Recommendation: I recommend approval to place the Northeast Health Partners, LLC grant contract supporting
the DPP on a future Board meeting for formal consideration.
