BACKGROUND

The Gaston County Department of Health and Human Services - Public Health Division received grant funds from the Association of Food and Drug Officials (AFDO) for the Environmental Health Food Program.  AFDO grants funds for the Retail Standards Grant Program.  The Retail Standards Grant Program defines what constitutes a highly effective and responsive program for the regulation of foodservice and retail food establishments.  The Retail Program Standards encourage regulatory agencies to improve and build upon existing programs.  The funds will be used for an Environmental Health Specialist to attend training to help ensure the safety and security of the food supply at the retail level.  These are non-County funds.
