Preventive Health and Health Services Block Grant
OMB Clearance.: #0920-0106
EXPIRATION: 10/31/2008
The health needs of communities are diverse, complex, and
constantly changing. The Preventive Health and Health Services (PHHS) Block
Grant gives grantees the flexibility to prioritize the use of funds to fill
funding gaps in programs that deal with leading causes of death and
disability, as well as the ability to respond rapidly to emerging health
issues including outbreaks of food borne infections and water borne
diseases. The PHHSBG has provided 50 states, the District of Columbia, 2
American Indian tribes, and 8 U.S. territories with funding to address their
own unique public health needs and challenges in innovative and locally
defined ways.
