Like previous years, we <br />have prepared a proposal requesting the continuation of the program for the federal fiscal year <br />October 1, 2002-September 30, 2003. The proposal needs Cass County Commission support. The <br />Cass County Extension Service proposal is combined with proposals from other North Dakota <br />counties. The combined proposal will be forwarded to the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) <br />branch of USDA by July 1, 2002 for consideration. The County Support Agreement is attached to <br />this request for your review. (avttilaJol~.. ~v ve~/ie~o .o-.1-Fi~:t~a~;m-. ~f:?[ee) <br /> <br />The success of this program depends on a close working relationship with staffand clients of <br />several local agencies. Becki Lawler and Stephanie Volk are the Cass County Extension Service <br />staff members with job responsibilities for this program. Both, Becki and Stephanle, are doing <br />an excellent job. <br /> <br />This year's proposal commits primarily in-kind resources from Cass County and Fargo Public <br />School. The only cash resources committed from Cass County are a phone line, copying of <br />program materials and expendable office supplies. These resources are identified on the County <br />Support Agreement. <br /> <br />If you have questions about this we'd be happy to visit with you about it. <br />Suggested motion is: <br /> <br /> Move that the Cass County Commission support the Family Nutrition Program county <br />proposal for continuation of the program from October 1, 2002-September 30, 2003pending <br />proposal acceptance by State and Federal partners. <br /> <br />J: fnp/commissionlh'2001 <br /> <br />County commmsions, North Dakota State University and U.S. Department of Agriculture Cooperating <br /> <br /> <br />
