chronic disease.
Due to the government shut down last year, the State recently submitted a new revised Agreement #13-20522

Activity Promotion Project, for the period from October 1, 2013 through September 30, 2016, which includes
agreeing to indemnify and hold the State harmless for claims arising out of the County’s performance under the
Agreement. The County will provide nutrition and conduct nutrition activities to SNAP-Ed eligible families per
Health and Safety Code Section 104650-104655.
The goal of this project is to create innovative partnerships that assist the Supplement Nutrition Assistance
Program-Education (SNAP-Ed) eligible consumers in adopting healthy eating and physical activity behaviors, as part
of a healthy lifestyle, through September 30, 2016.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, the County will not receive funds to educate SNAP-Ed eligible on healthful nutrition
