This is a Budget Template (Appendix F) for a state contract opportunity administered by Delaware's Division of Public Health under the Maternal, Infant and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) Program. The project focuses on expanding the Parents as Teachers (PAT) program, an evidence-based home visiting initiative targeting high-risk communities identified through statewide needs assessments. The template is designed to capture all project costs for an initial two-year contract period, with costs broken down annually by category. The contractor's Project Plan defines the payment structure, with compensation contingent upon successful completion and approval of deliverables and activities outlined in Appendix B.

The budget template requires detailed cost documentation across five primary categories: Personnel (listing staff members, time allocation, roles, salaries, and fringe benefits); Travel (separated into in-state and out-of-state expenses); Contractual (including purpose and project support documentation); Supplies (program and office supplies); and Other Program Costs (including training and professional development). The project is funded through the Maternal, Infant and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) grant issued by the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), which supports evidence-based voluntary home visiting programs. All proposed costs must be itemized and totaled to reflect the comprehensive financial requirements for the two-year initial implementation period of the PAT program expansion.
