Maternal and Child Health Services Title V Block Grant Tennessee FY 2023 Application / FY 2021 Annual Report

The MCH/Title V Program is managed within the Tennessee Department of Health’s Division of Family Health and Wellness. MCH/Title V federal funds are essential to meet state and local needs in a manner that is intentional, flexible, and accountable. States are held accountable for planning and progress in priority areas and must report how both state
and federal funds are spent. A needs assessment occurs every five years and is updated annually by review of available data and input of partners. Similarly, the action plan to address the needs with available state and federal resources and a wide range of partners is revised annually.

MCH/Title V 项目由田纳西州卫生部门家庭健康与福祉司负责管理。MCH/Title V联邦资金对于有目的性、灵活性及责任性地满足州及地方需求至关重要。各州需对其在优先领域的规划与进展负责，并须报告州级与联邦资金的支出情况。每五年进行一次需求评估，并通过审查现有数据和合作伙伴的反馈进行年度更新。类似地，针对利用现有州级和联邦资源及广泛合作伙伴解决需求的行动计划也将每年进行修订。
