Box 520 Pleasanton, CA 94566 Re: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)—COVID-19 Emergency Funding Dear Becky: Thank you for your recent email outlining the new CDBG-COVID-19 emergency funding that may be available to Axis Community Health (Axis) in the amount of$130,314. As you requested, I have outlined a 24-month plan that describes how Axis would expend these funds if awarded to us by City Council. Under the Housing and Urban Development guidelines for the funding, Axis would be providing services related to activities that prevent and respond to the spread of infectious diseases such as COVID-19. These services would include: (1) the provision of both clinic-based and telehealth medical services to assess patients for symptoms of COVID-19 or other infectious diseases, (2) diagnostic, treatment and follow-up care for patients who are at-risk for or diagnosed with COVID-19 or other infectious diseases, (3) coordinating related ancillary services, to include testing, contact tracing, pharmaceuticals and home diagnostic equipment as appropriate, and (4) patient, family and community education regarding infectious disease prevention. In order to conduct these services, Axis will also procure necessary supplies, to include testing items and personal protection equipment. When antibody testing and treatment modalities as applicable to COVID-19 and other infectious diseases become available, Axis will develop and implement strategies to provide these enhanced services for patients as well. Axis will provide these services at its two Pleasanton clinic sites, located at 4361 Railroad Avenue and 5925 W. Las Positas Blvd. This project will serve approximately 2,400 Pleasanton residents who are patients at Axis; an estimated 1,775 (74%) of these patients will have a family income that is less than 100%of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) and 480 (20%) will have a family income that is less than 200% of FPL. We appreciate the opportunity to apply for this support and would be happy to respond to any questions regarding this proposal. We are also available to virtually attend the May 19, 2020 City Council meeting if requested.
