Quin County Community Health Service

Quin County Community Health Service, doing business as Quin CCHS, is a Minnesota county government entity that receives federal grant funding as a sub-recipient from the Minnesota Department of Health, with no prime contracting footprint and no seat on federal contract vehicles.

Quin CCHS operates exclusively as a grant sub-recipient, accounting for 100% of its three recent federal awards across a combined $356 thousand in obligated funds. The vendor receives federal pass-through funding from the Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration, channeled through the Minnesota Department of Health as prime grantee. Recent sub-grant awards include Title V Maternal Child and Block Grant distribution (October 2024) to support maternal and child health efforts within community health boards, Public Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Capabilities funding (July 2024) aligned with national standards for state, local, tribal, and territorial public health systems, and Public Health Workforce development funding (March 2023) to recruit, retain, and train public health personnel and address public health infrastructure capacity gaps.

Activity has been sparse but recent: one award in 2023 and two in 2024. No contract recompete cliff is present in the source. As a local government entity rather than a commercial vendor, Quin CCHS does not pursue federal prime contracts, does not hold independent contract vehicles, and does not serve as a subcontractor to federal prime contractors. The organization functions as a regional public health implementation partner for HHS CDC and HRSA programs administered through Minnesota's state health department.
