4.1. Amendments
4.1.1. Federal or State Laws or Regulations
The Subcontractor shall, upon request of MFF and receipt of a proposed amendment, amend
this Agreement, if and when required in the opinion of MFF, due to the revision of federal or

days after receipt, this Agreement shall terminate upon such refusal. This Agreement may
otherwise be amended only by the written consent of all the parties hereto.
4.1.Z Change Requests
MFF reserves the right to request from time to time any changes to the requirements and
specifications of this Agreement and the work to be performed by the Subcontractor under
this Agreement. During the course of ordinary business, it may become necessary for MFF to
discontinue certain business practices or create additional services/deliverables. At a
minimum, to the extent applicable, MFF will require the Subcontractor to provide a detailed
outline of all work to be done, including tasks necessary to accomplish the
services/deliverables, timeframes, listing of key personnel assigned, estimated hours for
each individual per task, and a complete and detailed cost justification.
If the Subcontractor does not so notify MFF, the Subcontractor has no right to claim
thereafter that it is entitled to additional compensation in accordance with this agreement
for performing that service or providing that deliverable. Changes to the Agreement should
be made no later than August 15, 2017.
Change Requests:
a. By giving Subcontractor written notice within a reasonable time, MFF must be entitled to
accept a Subcontractor proposal for change, to reject it, or to reach another agreement

amendment must be prepared and issued under this Agreement, describing the change
and its effects on the services and any affected components of this Agreement.
b. No proposed change must be performed until the proposed change has been specified in a
duly executed amendment issued by MFF.

believes constitute a change, the Subcontractor must notify MFF that it believes the
requested activities are a change before beginning to work on the requested activities. If
the Subcontractor fails to notify MFF before beginning to work on the requested activities,
then the Subcontractor waives any right to assert any claim for additional compensation

except as contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) acquire any right in or assert any lien
against the confidential information of the other, or (iii) if requested to do so, refuse for

party. Each party will limit disclosure of the other party's confidential information to
employees and subcontractors who must have access to fulfill the purposes of this

continued access to MFF and/or DHHS's confidential information may be required to
execute an acknowledgement that the employee has been advised of the Subcontract
and the Subcontractor's obligations under this section and of the employee's obligation
to the Subcontractor to protect the confidential information from unauthorized use or
disclosure.

Oakland County Health Division - Taste and Try Challenge
1. SMART Objectives

education contacts at a market point-of-access location will report a Y2 cup increase in their daily
consumption of fruits and vegetables above baseline.

report a 10% increase in preferences for fruits and vegetables and 5% cooking self-efficacy as measured
by pre- and post-test.
c. By September 30, 2017, Oakland Country Health Division will partner with up to 5 organizations where
nutrition education is already provided to conduct an assessment of the nutrition environment and
implement at least 1 recommended environmental/policy improvement.
d. By September 30, 2017, partner with a least one director of a school/after-school program where nutrition
education is already provided to assess the nutrition/physical activity environment and implement at least
1 recommended improvement.

3. Program Description
The Taste and Try Challenge is comprised of two direct education components. The first provides nutrition
education sessions onsite at a produce market and food pantry at a minimum of twice per month, from March
through September 2017. One monthly session will include food demonstration (including preparation) and
recipes that will focus on three messages: (1) tips for making healthy meals with less stress and cost, (2) fill
half your plate with fruits and vegetables, and (3) trying new produce may change preferences for fruits and
vegetables. The second monthly session will include tastings to highlight a seasonal fruit or vegetable being
sold at the site. The second component is providing the 11-week Cooking with Kids curriculum at three sites,
including two summer feeding sites, and one after-school location. The curriculum will be offered from March
through September 2017 to children in grades K-6.
To compliment the nutrition education lessons offered through Cooking with Kids, technical assistance about
one-time physical activity promotions will provide site leaders with information about how to create activity or
"brain breaks" within school and enrichment programs in each school-based setting where the program is
delivered. These instructional periods will provide the children with an activity break to learn a simple skill such
as stretching or dancing.
Attachment 1
Policy and environmental changes will be facilitated through strengthened partnerships with each direct
nutrition education site aimed at improving access to and appeal for healthier food offered in these settings.
Systems and organizations partnering on implementing these interventions include public health, faith-based,
education, housing, human service agencies, and a Hispanic cultural organization..
4. Summary of Research
The research supporting the Taste and Try Challenge includes the Social-Ecological Model, Social Cognitive
Theory, and the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). The Taste and Try Challenge is a comprehensive public
health intervention where each layer (individual factors, settings, sectors, and social / cultural norms and
values) are present in the proposed interventions. Central to the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) (Ajzen,
1985; Godin & Kok, 1996) is the concept that perceived behavioral control is a predictor of behavior.
Participants will perceive that they have control over preparing and eating meals consisting of fresh fruits and
vegetables. Cooking with Kids is a research-tested curriculum based on both existing research and continual
field-testing. Research shows, utilizing hands-on experiences with food is an engaging and effective strategy to
teach healthy eating behaviors (Walters & Stacey, 2009).
5. Program Modifications
Program modifications include policy and environmental changes that will be facilitated through strengthened
partnerships with each direct nutrition education site aimed at improving access and appeal for healthier food
offered in these settings. Physical activity promotions will also enhance the Cooking with Kids program offered
in school settings.

7. Evaluation Approach, Scope and Measures
Evaluation plans will include utilization of valid and reliable research-based measurement tools and
participation in the statewide evaluation. In addition, continual process evaluation through review of daily field
notes, consistent evaluation implementation, and prompt result analysis will ensure program improvement and
effectiveness. The evaluation methods and tools that will be used include tracking cards, pre- and post-
evaluations, and surveys. OCHD acknowledges working with MFF SNAP-Ed Project Manager on process and
outcome evaluation plan and tools.
8. Key Performance Measures
3 Increase the consumption of fruits and vegetables
3 Systems and/or Environmental change(s) detailed below:
. Engage in partnerships where nutrition education is provided to create more supportive nutrition
environments and incorporation of physical activity promotions.
. Increase the number of settings where nutrition education is provided that adopt guidelines and/or
environmental supports that improve access and appeal for healthier foods.
