This file is a Sample Workplan Template provided by the State of Delaware Division of Public Health for the Rural Library-Based Health Access Initiative, a rural health access program serving Sussex and Kent Counties in Delaware. The template is designed to guide applicants in developing structured workplans that align with the initiative's goals, scope of work, and reporting requirements. Applicants may use this template or an alternative format, provided that submissions include activities, deliverables, responsible staff, timeframes, performance indicators, and data collection methods. The workplan template includes sections for objectives and activities, with corresponding monitoring approaches that specify data sources and collection methods, measurement frequency, baseline targets, and responsible parties for implementation.

The initiative aims to improve health outcomes in medically underserved rural areas by reducing access barriers, expanding equitable care delivery, and strengthening local public health system capacity. The program prioritizes federal rural health priorities including telehealth access, care coordination, chronic disease management, and health equity while building sustainable, community-based infrastructure and cross-sector partnerships. Additional details and specific scope of services requirements are provided in Appendix B of the request for proposals. The template serves as a planning instrument to ensure applicants address both clinical needs and social determinants of health in their proposed implementation strategies.
