West Virginia Department Of Health And Human Resources

West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources, operating as the Bureau for Public Health, is a state government entity that receives federal grants and executes federal contracts as a prime recipient across public health, behavioral health, nutrition assistance, and environmental health programs. The organization operates under its parent, the State of West Virginia, and competes in full-and-open federal grant and contract categories with no set-aside designations.

The Bureau's federal footprint centers on health and human services delivery. Recent representative work includes a $1.55 million Indefinite Delivery Contract from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for Vaccines for Children and Vaccines for Children Surveillance Cooperative Programs (CFDA-aligned), with three delivery orders totaling $465,372 issued to date and performance through April 2027 in Charleston, West Virginia. In contracts, the Bureau holds a $155,124 delivery order under that CDC IDC (April 2026), a $703,928 purchase order from the Social Security Administration for enumeration at birth and race and ethnicity records (exercising option period 2, extending through June 2029), and a $1.1 million purchase order from the Social Security Administration for Electronic Death Records (EDR) modifications fully funding performance through December 2025. The FDA awarded a $849,833 definitive contract for Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA) inspections and a $74,830 contract for human food inspections.

Grant work dominates the Bureau's recent activity. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) awarded a $6.71 million Block Grant for Community Mental Health Services (CFDA 93.958) effective October 2025 through September 2027, supporting evidence-based outpatient counseling, crisis intervention, and case management for adults with serious mental illness and children with serious emotional disturbances. The Maternal and Child Health Bureau awarded a $15.16 million Maternal, Infant and Early Childhood Home Visiting Grant Program (CFDA 93.870) effective September 2025 through September 2027, implementing evidence-based home visiting through four models (Parents as Teachers, Healthy Families America, Early Head Start Home-Based Option, and MIHOW) across 20 sub-awardee partner organizations. The Administration on Children, Youth and Families awarded a $348,176 Personal Responsibility Education Program (CFDA 93.092) and a $472,243 State Sexual Risk Avoidance Education Program (CFDA 93.235), both effective October 2025. The Bureau also holds a $6.48 million Substance Abuse Prevention, Treatment, and Recovery Services Block Grant (CFDA 93.959) and receives formula grants from the Department of Agriculture's WIC program, EPA Region 3 for drinking water system supervision and lead service line replacement, and the CDC for preventive health, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and chronic disease programs.

Customer concentration spans HHS agencies and USDA. The top five funding agencies by award count account for 45 percent of awards: the CDC (76 awards), USDA Food and Nutrition Service (69 awards), EPA (60 awards), CMS (51 awards), and HRSA (44 awards). By potential dollar value, the FDA leads with $9.3 million across 17 awards, and CDC Pittsburgh accounts for $5.6 million across 22 awards; the full CDC portfolio (76 awards) and USDA FNS (69 awards) dominate volume. The Bureau serves 49 distinct federal agencies across a portfolio of 660 total awards spanning 1979 to April 2026.

The Bureau executes work almost entirely as a prime recipient or contractor (99 percent of awards); only four sub-awards appear in the source, all COVID-19 emergency protective measures routed through the Division of Emergency Management. The Bureau's primary contract vehicle is a single-award CDC Indefinite Delivery Contract (75D30122D13179) with five task orders valued at $776 thousand, and an older IDC (HHSD200201792613I) carrying seven task orders at $1.3 million. Forty-eight awards carrying combined potential value of $1.1 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating a moderate recompete pipeline. Top NAICS and PSC categories reflect the organization's role: Administration of Public Health Programs, Computing Infrastructure Providers, and Data Collection support functions anchor the portfolio.
