Facility Improvement Program
We design, administer, and implement grant-funded improvements in partnership with public agencies. This involves Healthy Starts going on-site to each beneficiary provider to assess facility safety needs and coordinate eligible improvements in compliance with applicable funding requirements.
Emergency Preparedness & Life-Safety Support for Providers
All activities are delivered in coordination with the awarding jurisdiction and in accordance with CDBG Public Services eligibility requirements.
Step 1 | Emergency Preparedness & Life-Safety Procurement:
Healthy Starts works with local agencies to procure eligible life-safety equipment (AEDs, & Bleeding Control Kits.) for use by beneficiary facilities, in accordance with awarding jurisdiction requirements.
Step 2 | Emergency Preparedness & Life-Safety Training:
Healthy Starts ensures each facility operator is adequately trained as required for the safe and effective use of CDBG-funded life-safety equipment.
Step 3 | Emergency Preparedness & Life-Safety Placement:
Healthy Starts goes on-site with each beneficiary provider to ensure proper device placement within occupied program spaces, consistent with manufacturer guidance and awarding jurisdiction policies.
