ATTACHMENT 1
Idaho Gem State Public Health
Host Site Scope of Work
September 1, 2025 — August 31, 2026
AmeriCorps Members serve with community partners across the state in Quarter-Time or Half-Time
terms of service, with the potential for Reduced One-Quarter positions to be offered at a later date.
General Host Site Service Activities
An AmeriCorps Member (Member) can perform direct service and indirect service duties and tasks as
outlined in their individual position descriptions, All activities performed by the Member must be
included or covered by the position description in the Member’s contract. Host Sites and Site Supervisors
may change positions throughout the year as needed. A Member’s duties/ position description must
include no less than 80% direct service activities and no more than 20% indirect service and/ or training.
Below is a definition of direct and indirect service from Serve Idaho.
Direct service is work that addresses human need, the environment, public safety, and/or education in
one form or another. It is working directly with people to make change or doing work that is involved in
making that direct change. It can be outreach, case management, training, teaching, tutoring, mediating,
cleaning, counseling, recruiting volunteers, catching up on paperwork related to clients, preparing for
class, coaching, listening, cooking, serving, providing health care, food, clothing, etc. Direct service
hours should constitute 80% or more of an AmeriCorps Member's total hours served. The remainder will
be indirect service hours.
Indirect service hours, or education and training hours, are only applicable when they reflect the
AmeriCorps service that the Member credits to the education award he or she will receive. Any on-the job
training that refers to direct service would be part of this category. All orientations, including the
AmeriCorps orientation, would be included, as well as any state or regional trainings, seminars, or
workshops pertaining to issues related to direct service. Examples would be conflict resolution seminars,
teacher development days, team-building exercises or a class on training techniques. Only 20% of the
Member's credited service hours can be dedicated to education and training, even if more hours have
been spent in this area.
Gem State Public Health AmeriCorps Program Goals
Goal 1: Organization Capacity Building
The purpose of increasing organizational capacity through collaboration and community outreach is in
response to conditions exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, in which health departments and public
health organizations lack the workforce and capacity to meet the needs of people in Idaho. This is
especially true for vulnerable and historically underserved populations. Additionally, there is an
unintentional lack of collaboration reported among organizations and a strong need to strengthen
community partnerships to increase service delivery.
The fact that the majority of Idaho’s counties are rural, and rural populations have historically been
underserved, as well as the minority populations that are disproportionately impacted from the lack of
health care program outreach and left out of pertinent information that public health organizations need
for collaborating. The greater impact these populations by the shortages in health care and public health
care organizations in the state due to stigmatization, lack of transportation, adequate housing and financial
SITE AGREEMENT —— Page 4 of 11
A26-0030-RIRH77-BC]J 2025-2026
BOARD OF BANNOCK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS - MEETING JANUARY 20, 2026
resources can be intervened by increasing organizational capacity of public healthcare organizations
through building and strengthening community partnerships.
AmeriCorps Members will work with their host sites to conduct a needs assessment regarding current
partnerships, establishing new partnerships, and strengthening those in place. Gem State AmeriCorps
Members will recruit community partners, designate liaison’s, build relationships, coordinate and
facilitate meetings, create workgroups, gather information design and develop training manuals, and
provide other support as needed. AmeriCorps Members may also be engaged with policy and procedure
development for volunteer management within these partnerships and collaborations. Through these
activities AmeriCorps Members will be able to help their host sites expand services to reach community
Members and new populations.
AmeriCorps Members will also engage in issuing a Pre-Intervention Survey to their Host Site and staff to
determine a baseline for partnerships and services offered. A Mid-Intervention Survey will then be
administered by Gem AmeriCorps Members, at about the halfway point. Finally, AmeriCorps Members
will distribute a Post-Intervention Survey towards the end of service at the host site to determine
achievements. If sites report an increase in collaborations, partnerships, or other activities, that will be
considered a gain. AmeriCorps Members will be trained on how to administer the survey assessment and
collect results.
Goal 2: Increase the Number of Individuals Certified as Suicide Prevention Interventionists
Idaho has been rated one of the leading states that are lacking the provision of mental health care services,
namely suicide prevention and intervention. Staff in healthcare and public healthcare organizations have
expressed an increase in the number of calls for help from local schoo! districts, but they are beyond their
capacity and can only provide limited assistance. The need for more trained and certified suicide
interventionists and preventionists is further backed by Idaho State Mortality reports, Idaho Novel
Coronavirus reports, and HRSA.
The Gem State Public Health AmeriCorps program will focus on increasing the capacity of public mental
health services, particularly in rural and underserved counties. A key approach to achieving this goal is by
expanding access to suicide prevention training opportunities to increase the number of trained and
certified suicide prevention interventionists.
The following evidence-based programs will be supported and delivered through the initiative:
e LivingWorks Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST)
A two-day interactive workshop offered statewide by Idaho-qualified, certified ASIST trainers.
Participants learn how to recognize warning signs, provide a skilled intervention, and develop a
safety plan.
e Sources of Strength (SoS) Training
A mental health promotion and suicide-prevention program delivered through contracted trainers.
Members will be trained as Peer Leaders to implement resilience-building campaigns and
activities in local schools and on the ISU campus.
Goal 3: Increase the number of individuals pursuing careers in the Public Health Sector
Since the Global pandemic occurred, the public health sector has seen a mass exodus of workforce.
Idaho’s local public health departments and non-profit agencies have been lacking the workforce needed

12 BOARD OF BANNOCK COUNTY COMMISSIONERS - MEETING JANUARY 20, 2026
to meet the needs of vulnerable populations and underserved populations in Idaho. Gem AmeriCorps
Members will learn more about public health careers. In turn, we expect that 75% of the Members will
pursue future engagement in the public health sectors in Idaho.
To determine that amount a “reflection log” or survey, will be sent to Members near the end of their
contract, which will ask how many plans to pursue a career in the public health field. Additionally, we
will support Members’ interest with academic advising and opportunities to explore degrees and/or
continuing education options. This will help determine how many Members pursue their educational
opportunities that advance their careers in the public health and non-profit fields.
Reporting Requirements
1. Timesheets must be reviewed, signed, and submitted by the Site Supervisor electronically through
America Learns on the 1* and the 16" of every month.
2. Program Host Site Supervisors must support AmeriCorps Members in their data collection
process.
3. Program Host Sites should encourage and support AmeriCorps Members to attend ASIST and
SoS training, in order for the AmeriCorps Member to become a certified suicide interventionist/
preventionist.
4. Program Host Site Supervisors should encourage AmeriCorps Member’s continued involvement
and educational goals to obtain and/or advance a career in public health.

ATTACHMENT 4
DISASTER PREPAREDNESS, RESPONSE, AND RECOVERY
A. Serve Idaho requires the availability of AmeriCorps Idaho Members (Members) to support
disaster response and/or recovery efforts as needed by the State of Idaho, Waivers of this
requirement will be considered on a case-by-case basis for programs that can demonstrate that
this requirement would cause undue hardship or be otherwise unreasonable for reasons related to
specific program design (for example, programs designed to enroll Members who are under the
age of 18 or who are full-time students).
B. Serve Idaho serves as the primary point-of-contact for national service resources in Idaho during
times of disaster and may receive requests for support from governmental or non-governmental
partner(s), including Idaho Division of Emergency Management (IDEM) and Idaho Voluntary
Organizations Active in Disaster (IDVOAD). If Serve Idaho receives such a request, Serve Idaho
may require Members to activate or deploy to provide disaster response and recovery service.
When possible, Serve Idaho will first seek Members for activation or deployment on a voluntary
basis. Serve Idaho uses the following definitions for Member activation and deployment:
1. Member Activation: Members participate in Serve Idaho determined disaster response
and recovery within their service area. This may involve virtual service opportunities or
in-person service opportunities. This may include service opportunities outside of the
member’s standard service hours or in place of their standard service duties.
2. Member Deployment: Members deploy outside of their service area to participate in
Serve Idaho determined disaster response and recovery activities. In the event of a
Member activation, service activities are likely to include remote opportunities such as
supporting virtual call centers or social media monitoring, Member activation and
Member deployment opportunities may include assisting organizations with: volunteer
reception centers (ex: registering spontaneous volunteers, data entry), donations
management (ex: sorting, inventorying and/or distributing donations), shelter operations,
feeding, clean-up (mucking & gutting), and/or debris removal. If Members are activated
or deployed by Serve Idaho, service hours spent in response to that event may be counted
towards the total required Member hours of a given Member.
C, Subrecipients, such as Idaho State University, must provide all Members with basic training on
disaster preparedness, response, and recovery. Serve Idaho will make training materials available
for subrecipient’s use to meet this requirement, or subrecipients may partner with local
(city/county) emergency managers, Members of their local or state VOADs (Voluntary
Organizations Active in Disaster), the Idaho Division of Emergency Management (TDEM), or
similar agencies, If Member support is requested, Serve Idaho will ensure that Members are
provided with task-specific training and supervision by the governmental or nongovernmental
entity that has requested support.

602nn Public Hearing Outline
1. The County’s ordinance relative to Idaho Code 63-602nn has expired. The County is now at a
disadvantage in competition with other Counties and states in offering the tax relief authorized
under 602nn as the code requires the Board of County Commissioners to operate under an
existing ordinance in order to grant the tax relief.
2. Legal is requesting authorization from the Board of County Commissioners to draft a new
ordinance to be passed by the Commission at a later date. Legal is also requesting the Board to
arrive at a decision as to what the valuation threshold should be for new applications on plant
investments.
3. Under Idaho Code 63-602nn(2)(g)(i), in order to grant 63-602nn tax incentives, the Board of
County Commissioners must “establish by ordinance an investment amount not less than five
hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) at all project sites within the county for which the
exemption and all exemptions thereafter granted shall apply.” This is required to ensure
uniformity and equal opportunity to all tax payers.
a. The Board of County Commissioners will need to decide what they want the threshold
to be. A lower threshold makes application available to a greater amount of plant
investments. A larger threshold effectively limits the size of plant investments that
would qualify for the tax relief.
b. The Board may also decide on a tiered approach. See 1-23-15: New Business
Investment from the Canyon County Ordinance attached below. Canyon has seen fit to
place caps on the tax relief based upon the size of the investment and the amount of
jobs created. This is consistent with Idaho Code 63-602nn. The Board may follow this
approach, or opt to make the decision discretionary in each case. The Board may also
modify the tiered approach by including “jobs saved” with “jobs created.”

9:00 AM MiaCate Kennedy, CEO of Portneuf Valley Development Corp, Assessor Anita Hymas and
Chief Deputy Assessor Randy Hobson appeared. Kennedy explained she has been working with LA
Semiconductor for over 18 months. She attended a meeting in Taiwan with other semiconductors where it
became apparent we need to keep up the fab here. There is a business looking at the facility here or going
to Arizona. There are 300 jobs at the facility here. The city is looking at offering incentives. The request
is for the County to look at ways to offer incentives as well. 9:03 AM Moser moved to go into executive
session under Idaho Code §74-206(1)(e) to consider preliminary negotiations involving matters of trade or
commerce in which the governing body is in competition with governing bodies in other states. The
motion passed by roll call vote. 9:32 AM Hough moved to exit executive session. The motion passed.
Hough moved to write a letter of support and express a willingness to enter negotiations for tax
abatements. The motion passed.
3
9:34 AM Foster reviewed plat line adjustments for an existing plat. Bullock moved to approve the plat.
The motion passed.
4
9:36 AM Bourquin presented an updated timeline for the land use ordinance for the best and overall
approach to complete the entire ordinance rather than piecemeal sections. Pulling the section out on
alternative energy would still require a conditional use permit and following the public hearing
requirements. Following previous direction, the ordinance will not include battery storage. The section for
alternative energy is separate from what was previously done as that only included solar. There is pressure
to get the alternative energy ordinance completed quickly as there is a window offered because of
economic conditions. Discussion ensued on approving sections separately, splitting staff time/obligations,
saving costs, and doing it right. The best-case estimate is completion and publication on July 3.
9:54 AM Moser moved to follow the suggested timeline. Hough would like to compress the timeline and
suggested May 1. Jensen objected in that there are too many variables and they are meeting with council
for availability as this timeline will require a special session. Hough called for a vote. The motion passed.
5
9:59 AM Bullock discussed the proposed vehicle policy changes and recommended the mileage
reimbursement at the GSA or Bannock County’s adopted rate. Departments should be on their own
budget constraints, and change wording to “must” for personal use and pay both ways. Klauser expressed
concern for the language “or” in the mileage reimbursement and discussed resulted in setting the rate
every year based off GSA rates before budget season. Klauser questioned the definition of “local” and
suggested out of town. Klauser pointed out jurors are reimbursed mileage and that is not budgeted. Moser
would like to add in the practice currently being followed that if a county car is available and employees
want to go see relatives or vacation, then only one way should be reimbursed. If a county car is not
available, then both directions would be reimbursed. Hough suggested preparing drafts of the discussed
changed to present at the Elected Official meeting the first week of February. Dixon opined the current
practice is a good system and changing that will result in more people wanting to drive and less
carpooling just to get the extra pay.
6
10:11 AM Klauser reviewed the Secure Rural School reporting. Search and Rescue used the funds for
back country recovery. Hough moved to approve the report. The motion passed.
10:13 AM Klauser gave an update on ARPA projects and funds. There is $263,763.79 remaining due to
projects coming in under budget or project changes, which is 1.564% of the total received. There are no
remaining contract obligations open and the funds will have to be turned back.
7
10:17 AM Moser moved to approve Resolution 2026-5. The motion passed.
8
10:17 AM Moser moved to approve the memo to authorize destruction of records. The motion passed.

to the family. She requested a fee waiver of half. Crowther relayed the fee is $685 and suggested a 50%
