Explanation

BACKGROUND: The Columbus Health Department has been awarded additional grant funds from the Ohio Department of Health for the Federal HIV Prevention grant program in the amount of $20,332. These additional funds will allow for continued services. The purpose of this legislation is to accept and appropriate these additional funds to conduct the Federal HIV Prevention Program for the period of January 1, 2007 through December 31, 2007.

The Federal HIV Prevention program enables the Columbus Health Department to provide culturally and linguistically appropriate HIV counseling and testing/referral; partner counseling; and health education/risk reduction behavior modification programs. Services are provided to residents of Columbus and Franklin County, with special emphasis on men who have sex with men, individuals with high risk sexual contact, youth and injection drug/substance users.

This ordinance is submitted as an emergency so as to allow the financial transaction to be posted in the City's accounting system as soon as possible. Up to date financial posting promotes accurate accounting and financial management.

FISCAL IMPACT: The Federal HIV Prevention Program is entirely funded by the Ohio Department of Health. This program does not generate revenue or require a City match.
