Tribal Public Health Emergency Preparedness

The Washington State Department of Health (DOH) has been involved in Public Health Emergency Preparedness and Response (PHEPR) over the past three years as a grantee of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through both the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). DOH is contracting with AIHC to provide outreach and technical advice and to assist tribes in the completion and processing of the deliverables.
