Introduction

In 1964, Congress passed the Economic Opportunity Act to begin America’s War on Poverty. This act created a special

funding stream for communities to address poverty on the local level. Community Actions developed across the nation

to support low-income individuals in improving the quality of their lives. The Community Action Commission of Fayette

County was incorporated in 1967. The funds from the federal government go to the Ohio Development Service’s Agency

Office of Community Assistance and is then granted to the Community Action Commission of Fayette County (CACFC).

Today, the CACFC manages close to 7.5 million in federal, state, local, and private funds. The agency is home to over 100

employees and over 25 different programs. CACFC primarily serves Fayette County, Ohio. However, the agency has

roots in Clinton, Highland, Ross, Greene, Madison, and Pickaway Counties as well. These programs include:

Every three years, all Community Action Agencies must conduct a community needs assessment to inform the strategies

of its strategic plan. This needs assessment describes community needs, service delivery strategies based on those

needs, and directions for building the capacity of the agency and community to meet local needs. This needs

assessment’s focus is on Fayette County, Ohio and will span calendar years of 2018, 2019, and 2020.

The Community Needs Assessment (CNA) must meet the following standards:

Mission, Vision, and Approach

Mission Statement The mission of the Community Action Commission of Fayette County is to combat causes of poverty, expand community

services, and implement projects necessary to provide services and further community improvements.

Its mission is also to consider the problems concerning youth, adults and senior citizens and deal with the prevention

and solving of those problems.

The provision of affordable housing is a specific purpose of the agency, as is the development of income-generating

projects consistent with the purposes of the corporation which will increase funds available for services and reduce the

agency’s dependence on public funds.

Vision Statement Our vision is to facilitate the development of effective community programs that provide every individual and

neighborhood in our community the opportunity to thrive.

Approach Offering support services and providing basic needs to which all people have a right.

Developing opportunities for people with low incomes. Increasing public awareness about the challenges that

many people with low incomes face.

Ensuring that people with low incomes provide the leadership in the decisions that affect their lives.

Engaging many voices in promoting human rights and economic justice.

Advocating for policies that help and taking a stand against policies that hurt those living with low incomes.

Assessment & Planning Process This Community Needs Assessment (CNA) was developed utilizing the tools discussed in this section below and included

in the appendices of this CNA.

Compilation of data specific to poverty and its prevalence related to gender, age, and race/ethnicity for the

service area obtained from Community Commons on 7/17/2017 at www.communitycommons.com.

Customer Satisfaction Surveys created on 6/7/17 and available at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/CACFCCS.

These surveys were created by the agency’s Planner and distributed by the agency’s frontline staff.

Community Needs Assessment Survey created on 7/7/17 and available at

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/cacna. This survey was developed through research of the agency’s planner

and posted on the agencies website, on Facebook and featured in the local paper.

5 focus groups with 50 low-income individuals during Getting Ahead from January through June 2017. These

focus groups were chaired by the following staff and consultants: Mellinda Hellard, Jennifer Guisinger, Tracey

Hixon, Stacey Johnson, and Vickey Leisure.

Data pulled from the Homeless Management Information System and the OCEAN Database regarding agency

activities.

Discussion of Low Income Involvement The CACFC engaged low income individuals in the following ways to participate in the needs assessment:

Conducted focus groups through the Getting Ahead Program from 1/1/17-6/30/17. Their feedback is discussed

in the analysis section. 50 low income individuals participated in the focus groups.

Conducted outreach to program participants to fill out Customer Satisfaction Surveys and the Needs Assessment

Survey face to face at time of service, online (both Facebook and the CACFC website), and in the local paper.

37 Customer Satisfaction Surveys were submitted and 46 Needs Assessment Surveys were completed by low

income individuals.

Community Profile The Community Action Commission of Fayette County (CACFC) is the designated Community Action Agency for Fayette

County, Ohio. In total, the service area includes the cities of Bloomingburg, Jeffersonville, Milledgeville, Octa, New

Holland, and the county seat, Washington Court House. With an area of 406.36 square miles and a population density of

70.8 per square mile, Fayette County is less dense than the state and national average. Population in Fayette County has

actually been on the decline for some time as many individuals leave the community for increased economic

opportunity. The largest segments of its population are between 5-17 and over 65.

Compared to the rest of the state and nation, CACFC’s service area has relatively low levels of racial and ethnic diversity.

The vast majority (95%) of the population identifies as white. Fayette County’s disabled population is 16.37%, greater

than both the nation and state. Individuals that report as multi-racial or black were also identified as disabled at greater

rates than whites, with 24.4 and 23.2. Most notably, almost half of Native American/Alaska Natives were disabled. Only

1.6% of the population has limited English proficiency. 38.21% of that population identifies as Hispanic.

Within the report area 2,854 public school students or 58.89% are eligible for Free/Reduced Price lunch out of 4,846

total students enrolled. 16% of the total population is identified as experiencing food insecurity at some point during the

year. 24% of children were identified as food insecure. 22% of these food insecure children are not eligible for any

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/CACFCCS

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/cacna

assistance. There are free meals available in the community every day of the week and six faith-based organizations

running food pantries.

Fayette County is home to two public school districts and the Fayette Christian private schools. 91.8% of all students in

the 2014-2015 school year received their diploma. While WCH City Schools shows a grade of A for improvement and B

for graduation, all other performance rankings are a D or lower. Miami Trace shows a grade of B for improvement and A

for graduation, but all other performance indicators are graded as a C or lower. This is relevant because research

suggests that education is one of the strongest indicators of health.

Transportation is a challenge for many low income families in Fayette County. While only 6.64% of all household’s

report having no motor vehicle, the local transit system is often overwhelmed. Fayette County Transportation provided

over 39,500 trips in 2016 alone. The vast majority of these trips were for employment (almost 26,000) with medical

following with medical following (around 7,000).

The housing market in Fayette County is very challenging. 33% of all households pay more than 30% of their income

towards their housing. The housing stock, as projected by the census, is around 12,680 units. Approximately 60% of

those units are owner occupied. Focus groups with low-income individuals indicated that rental housing that will pass

inspection is difficult to find and that many individuals have had to move outside of their school district or the county at

times when unable to locate affordable, quality housing. This is supported by the fact that the county has 32% of its

housing units being occupied with one or more substandard conditions.

Ohio Development Service Agency’s county profile indicates that 8.5% of the county’s housing units are vacant. 64% of

the housing stock was built before the 1980’s. The greatest percentage of homes are valued between $60-79,999.

Fayette County does fair better than the state and nation in terms of access to HUD-Assisted units with 674 units in the

county. 368 are HCV, 248 are Project-Based, and 58 are HUD 202. The county is also home to 587 Low Income Housing

Tax Credit units.

The median household income in the community is $49,222, well below the state and national median incomes of

$62,817 and $66,011 respectively. Married couples, singles, and single fathers far out earn single females with children.

Single father’s median income is $31,071 and single mother’s median income is $18,761. While no data is available for

most minority groups, Asian’s median income is shown to be $90.089, followed by white at $50,260, multi-racial at

$41,563. Individuals reporting as Hispanic/Latino make the lowest median income of $24,853. Overall, Fayette County

reports 5-7,000 less in per capita income that the state and nation.

Fayette County has a higher usage rate for public supports than the state and nation. 4% of residents receive

OWF/General Assistance. 515 households receive about $2,209 in public assistance. 28% receive Medicaid. These

individuals are more frequently under 18 and over 65, comprising 58% of the Medicaid population.

The county is both a mental health professional shortage area and a medically underserved community. Currently,

Fayette County has two substance abuse treatment providers, Fayette Recovery and Scioto Paint Valley Mental Health.

There is a total of 14 mental and 11 primary healthcare providers in the entire county. A total of 12% of the entire

population is uninsured. However, this issue impacts blacks being disproportionally uninsured at 32%.

The area also has more families on SNAP than the state and national averages, with 19% of the population receiving

SNAP. These benefits are also disproportionately depended upon by black (26%), other racial (75%), and multi-racial

(34%) families. The county has 31 Authorized SNAP retailers, allowing higher access than the state and national average.

In terms of education, the community also lags the state and nation in terms of individuals with a high school diploma,

associate’s degree, or bachelor’s degree. This is likely due to a large portion of the community leaving for college and

frequently not returning or moving for economic opportunity. 15% of the population has no high school diploma, 22%

has an associate’s or higher, and 14% reports having a bachelor’s degree or higher. 42% of the Hispanic population does

not have a high school diploma.

Poverty in the community also follows these trends. 28% of the county’s children are 100% under the Federal Poverty

Level. 80% of the county’s Hispanic children are in poverty tract. Then 56% of the county’s children are 200% under

FPL. As a percentage of the total population, 18% of all residents are under 100% FPL and 42% are under 200% FPL.

Again, Hispanics are over represented with over 50% reporting at 100% FPL.

The current unemployment rate for the county is 3.9%. Over the course of May 2016-May 2017 rates ranged from as

low at 3.4% to 5.4%. The county’s rate is slightly less than the United States.

Due to many health-related factors and access to care, the county ranks 76 out 81 in terms of health outcomes. Most

notable are its teen pregnancy rates (49) and obesity rates (33%) being greater than other Ohio Counties, according to

the County Health Rankings produced by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. The county also has a preventable

ambulatory care sensitive condition discharge rate a full 21 points over the state and 22.7 points over the state and

national averages at 72.6. The county also has a high tobacco consumption rate of 31%, a full 10-12% over the state and

national average.

The community has been overrun by the opiate epidemic. Recent data shows Fayette County being in the top 2/3 of

Ohio’s counties in terms of impact of the opiate problem. The age adjusted death rate is 22.2 versus the state average

of 19.6 and national average of 13.4. Past 30-day use data obtained of surveys of the two local school districts showed

23% of 10th graders reporting alcohol use, 13% reporting marijuana use, and 5% reporting the illegal use of prescription

drugs.

Poverty Specific Profile Below is an excerpt on poverty from the full Community Needs Assessment accessed from Community Commons on

7/17/17.

Poverty - Population Below 100% FPL

Poverty is considered a key driver of health status.

Within the report area 18.45% or 5,185 individuals are living in households with income below the Federal Poverty Level

(FPL). This indicator is relevant because poverty creates barriers to access including health services, healthy food, and

other necessities that contribute to poor health status.

have multiple health access, health status, and social support needs; when combined with poverty data, providers can

use this measure to identify gaps in eligibility and enrollment.

Lack of Social or Emotional Support

This indicator reports the percentage of adults aged 18 and older who self-report that they receive insufficient social and

emotional support all or most of the time. This indicator is relevant because social and emotional support is critical for

navigating the challenges of daily life as well as for good mental health. Social and emotional support is also linked to

educational achievement and economic stability.

Conditions & Causes of Poverty in Fayette County Many Fayette County families do not have enough household income to meet their basic needs. As a result, they are

also unable to afford quality and/or safe housing, access reliable transportation, and pay for their most basic health care

needs. Additionally, once individuals in poverty reach a minimal increase in income, they experience the benefits cliff.

Many low income individuals indicated this as a major reason for their continued poverty.

Employment: Low income households and members of the CAC Board of Directors indicated that employment is one of the largest

causes of poverty in the community. The problem is two-fold.

The CACFC conducted a focus group with local employers in late 2016 regarding their largest problems. Local employers

indicated that the community lacks a workforce. Many of their higher paid positions remain unfilled. Local employers

indicated that most individuals do not show up for drug screens. They frequently recruit outside of the area. Local

employers also pointed to the lack of affordable, reliable transportation.

Focus groups with low income individuals resulted in very different perceptions. Low income households indicated that

many jobs they were able to perform were low paying and could not replace the benefits they would stand to lose. They

also pointed to transportation issues being a barrier to maintaining employment. They also indicated that many local

employers use of temporary agencies made it difficult to find permanent positions they could rely upon to pay their bills.

Affordable Housing Stock Fayette County’s renters are extremely housing burdened. 68% of the county’s housing stock was build prior to 1970.

1,079 units are sitting vacant. Only 710 units are available for rent under $500/month. Both in focus groups and the

Community Needs Assessment Survey, affordable housing was rated as the top reason for poverty in the community and

something the agency should address to move individuals out of poverty.

Substance Abuse The 2017 Fayette County Community Health Assessment identified substance abuse as the top public health concern.

Like many other counties in Ohio and across the county, Fayette County has been overrun by the opioid epidemic. The

Ohio Mental Health & Addiction Services Administration categorized the county as being a tier 2 community based upon

its overdose data from 2010-2015. Tier 2 communities comprise the top half of all counties ranked for overdose death.

Fayette County is ranked 11th for its average age-adjusted unintentional drug overdose death rate per 100,000

population from 2010-2015 with this data source. The Ohio Department of Health shows that with a rate of 28.1, the

Fayette County death rate is 1.5 times the state average.

Ohio is 4th in the nation in overdose deaths, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. During the

coalition’s 2016 needs assessment, there were 2,753 individuals in treatment and 111 patients receiving naloxone from

EMS personnel in 2015. In 2016, the local hospital reported over 200 overdose cases at the emergency room and 202

doses of naloxone were administered to 139 patients by EMS services, for a total of 402 overdoses.

The Fayette County jail was constructed in the 1800s and was only made to house 24 inmates at a time. Since the

epidemic, the jail is often over capacity, with over 70 individuals in the jail. The county recently purchased a scanner for

inmates and visitors, as two individuals have died from overdoses in the jail within the past year. The Sheriff’s Office

conducted a survey in the summer of 2016 and found that 95% of inmates identified opiates as being their drug of

choice which directly resulted in their incarceration. Needs assessment data shows that 349 cases were related to

substance misuse in 2015. Job and Family Services reports that 68% of their cases are related to substance use.

A lack of access to care presents barriers to good health, but can be deadly when it comes to substance abuse. The supply

and accessibility of facilities and physicians, the rate of uninsurance, financial hardship, transportation barriers, cultural

competency, and coverage limitations affect access to treatment.

According to the Community Commons Health Indicator report accessed on July 17, 2017, Fayette County has the following

barriers to community health:

www.communitycommons.org

Indicator Fayette County Ohio United States

Mental Health Care Provider Rate 48.6 154.8 202.8

Primary Care Physicians Rate 38.19 93.1 87.8

Percentage of Adults w/o Primary Care 39.11% 18.65% 22.07%

Years of Potential Life Lost 9,358 7,562 6,588

Age Adjusted Overdose Death Rate 22.2 19.6 13.4

Race Community needs assessment data also supports a race disparity in the community. Individuals reporting as

Black/African American, American Indian, Hispanic, or other race experience poverty and its associated impacts at

greater rates than their white counterparts.

Female Head of Households As noted in the poverty profile section above, female headed households are also disproportionately impacted by

poverty. The more children in the household, the greater the rates of poverty.

Community Needs Assessment Survey Analysis The Community Needs Assessment Survey was analyzed to distinguish between consumers and low income input and all

community stakeholders. The top ten priorities for each group is listed below and further analyzed in this section.

Community’s top 10 Critical Needs Priority Low Income All Stakeholders Overlapping Priorities

1 Affordable Housing Substance Abuse Affordable Housing

2 Prescription Assistance Substance Abuse Prevention Substance Abuse

3 Substance Abuse Affordable Housing Domestic Violence

4 Domestic Violence Domestic Violence Temporary Shelter

5 Temporary Shelter Legal Services Rent Assistance

6 Enrichment Programs for Youth Emergency Medical Care Emergency Medical Care

7 Rent Assistance Temporary Shelter Substance Abuse Prevention

8 Emergency Medical Care Rent Assistance Transportation

9 Substance Abuse Prevention Transportation

10 Transportation Counseling Services

Focus groups with low income individuals also had similar themes. These themes included: affordable housing, shelter,

substance abuse and prevention services, and the expansion of transportation services available.

Affordable Housing – Across stakeholder groups, affordable housing continues to be a high priority for the agency.

Prescription Assistance – Low income individuals still identified the need for prescription assistance. As such, the agency

will continue to search for more sources for the Salvation Army program.

Substance Abuse – The substance abuse issue in the community is impacting multiple programs. The increase in

individuals impacted by opioid misuse disorder has resulted in increased law enforcement, court, jailing, and treatment

costs. EMS personnel and hospital staff are inundated with individuals overdosing. Low income and other stakeholder

groups alike have identified this critical need in our community. Low income individuals recognize that treatment

http://www.communitycommons.org/

options are scarce for individuals on Medicaid and facilities have long waiting lists. The agency is working on the Faith in

Recovery Coalition to increase treatment options in the community.

Domestic Violence – The local domestic violence shelter recently closed, resulting in a lack of services and housing for

victims of domestic violence. The agency will look into VOCA, VAWA, and OCJS funding to fill this gap.

Temporary Shelter – The local shelter’s configuration does not lend itself to serving single, homeless men. The state and

federal government’s priorities are to not open more shelters. While Housing First (placing individuals into housing

rather than in shelter) is a wonderful idea, lacking a men’s shelter results in individuals continuing to sleep on the streets

until housing can be found. Individuals are often reluctant to cross county lines for shelter due to their connection to

the community and transportation issues. The agency will continue to pursue partnerships and will begin researching

other sites that meet the agency’s current budget.

Enrichment Programs for Youth – The community is interested in increasing protective factors and decreasing risk

factors for local youth. The agency is currently working on substance abuse prevention youth-led coalitions that will be

expanded over the next year to include alternate activities for youth.

Rent Assistance – Along with affordable housing and the prioritization of HUD to serve literally homeless individuals, few

resources exist for rent assistance in the community. The agency will continue to seek out partnerships with the local

MHA to find new funds to serve this need.

Emergency Medical Care – Many low income families and other stakeholders recognize that the area is often

underrepresented with primary and other emergency care. The agency will be joining the Rural Health Association to

look at opportunities to solve this critical need.

Substance Abuse Prevention – At the time of the formulation of this document, the agency received the Drug Free

Communities Support Program to expand substance abuse prevention activities in the community.

Transportation – The agency’s transit program struggles to keep up with the demand for its services. The agency is

exploring alternatives like point deviated routes, additional contracts with local employers, and the development of a

volunteer driver programs to meet the needs of individuals whose circumstances do not have a funding source.

Customer Satisfaction Approach Collection – Customer Satisfaction Surveys are distributed by front-line staff at the time of service. The CACFC has a

customer service feedback box for program participants to submit their surveys anonymously. The survey is also

available online on the Community Action website and is distributed on the agency’s Facebook page. The Community

Needs Assessment also includes a section on rating your experience with each type of program CACFC operates.

Analysis – The agency’s receptionist enters survey data into Survey Monkey. The agency Planner analyzes the feedback

annually and reports to the Board. Survey Monkey has the ability to filter by program type. The Planner did filter the

data to identify if program participants had more positive or negative feedback based upon the programs they were

using. However, what the Planner found was that the majority of customers were visiting and reported on multiple

services. During the annual survey update, the Planner will work to create different surveys and/or lines of questioning

specific to each program for more individualized feedback. To analyze customer feedback on the Community Needs

Assessment Survey, the Planner filtered the results by low-income participants/consumers only.

Reporting Data to the Board – The agency’s Planner will distribute the PDF of the Survey Monkey Customer Feedback

results to the Board of Directors on an annual basis. As the surveys are improved and customers submit more feedback,

Program Managers may be better able to make adjustments to their programs based upon those results.

The reports from the CNA and Satisfaction Survey are in the Appendices of this document.

Customer Satisfaction Analysis For the most part, customer satisfaction reported on the Customer Satisfaction Surveys was overwhelmingly positive.

Customers reported fast, respectful, knowledgeable service being provided across program types. Only two

respondents indicated that they “did not know” if they would recommend Community Action to others. Only one

respondent indicated that the CAC employee needed more knowledge of community resources.

In the Community Needs Assessment Survey, all “don’t know answers” where the individual responding was not familiar

with the program was excluded from analysis. The percentages of responses are tabulated below:

Program Respondents Rated Poor Rated Fair Rates Good/Excellent

Utility Assistance 35 11.43% 5.71% 82.86%

Early Childhood 20 0% 30% 70%

Youth Programs 17 11.76% 23.53% 64.71%

Salvation Army 14 7.14% 28.57% 64.29%

Home Ownership 16 18.75% 18.75% 62.5%

Homeless 26 23.08% 15.38% 61.54%

Mobility Mgmt. 10 20% 30% 50%

Transportation 19 26.32% 36.84% 36.84%

Senior Programs 12 16.67% 58.33% 25%

The three programs with the most negative feedback included transit, mobility management, and homeless programs.

Focus group participants indicated that the following issues were present in those programs:

Transit and Mobility Management: The need for a free transit, shuttle service in town, more transit to employment, and

more on-time trips. Mobility Management low-income participants expressed frustration at the lack of out of county

transportation available to non-Medicaid eligible populations under the age of 60.

Needs Assessment Recommendations for this issue: The transit program is piloting a point deviated route service and

the Mobility Manager is researching the feasibility of a volunteer driver program to expand out of county services. The

Mobility Management funding source restricts the Mobility Manager’s ability to do fundraising. As such, grants will be

submitted to foundations to find alternative revenue sources for this need.

Homeless Programs: Focus group participants shared their frustration in the lack of emergency shelter beds in the

community, specifically those available to single men.

Needs Assessment Recommendations for this issue: The state of Ohio continues to not fund new shelters in the Ohio

and encourages cross county collaboration for gaps in homeless services and the use of rapid re-housing funds to place

homeless individuals directly into housing. As such, the agency must continue to look for alternate sites for the county’s

homeless shelter that are affordable utilizing the $87,500 the shelter receives each year to fund 24 hour staffing and

operating funds. NIMBY issues continue to be a challenge as well as properties suitable for congregate living that would

provide separate living spaces for single men and households with children. Alternate sites will continue to be sought

out to fill this need.

Appendices

Focus Groups Recommendations

Investigators reported that they would like to see a facility, youth oriented. Something for the younger individuals in our

community. Like the Warehouse.

They expressed the need for a movie theater.

WCH Pool and/or small water park.

2. Transportation

The group expressed their concern about our current transportation services and the need for improvement, such as

pick-ups, being on time, one route to Wal-Mart and back through town.

They recommended specific shuttle services to work sites/Industrial Park and to out of county jobs as well, ie; Mt.

Sterling, Wilmington, for all shifts. Bus passes for low income and individuals who are just starting a new position and

have no money to ride the bus.

3. Child Care

Recommendations from the group specified needing day care sites at local factories. They expressed the desire to be

able to take their child to work with them and to have an on-site day care. The individuals working would not have to

leave the premises to address any needs or concerns with their child.

Additional affordable day care. Parents are not pleased with the State providers.

4. Housing

Additional affordable housing.

Men’s shelter

Additional beds/rooms at our current local shelter. Families have reported not wanting to go to a shelter out of county

due to their children being enrolled in school in WCH/Trace and/or the individual just received employment and is

unable to get back and forth if they went out of county.

5. Predatory Lending

GA participants were angered by these lending places. They expressed the need to make the public aware of the fine

print and/or no print, for the lending obligations.

6. Recovery Housing

Participants felt that individuals who are released from jail or rehab need a safe place to return to. The group discussed

the high risk of repeating the addiction behavior and/or the crimes associated with the behavior, if returned back to the

same environment.

7. Boards

The GA graduates expressed the need for more community residents to be a part of community board meetings. They

suggested having “local boards” invite the general public and encourage them to express their opinions and suggestions

and for the boards to “listen” to what the public has to say.

Group 2

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A MORE EQUITABLE AND HEALTHY FAYETTE COUNTY The following items were determined as a result of a "Getting Ahead" (GA) group of investigators. This GA group is one of several being facilitated in Fayette County. It is being funded by the Healthier Buckeye Grant, managed by the Fayette County Community Action Commission. Most GA members have, at some time in their lives, been in need of more resources to stabilize their lives. The objective of all GA members is to facilitate for themselves and the local community opportunities to move from getting by to getting ahead. 1. Transportation • Compared to nearby communities, Fayette County falters in providing low-cost reliable transportation. • Local temporary placement agencies report that lack of reliable transportation is the number one reason new hires are released. • Recommendations include a shuttle service with specific pick-up times throughout the county and city, timely runs to and from the mall, and runs to various work sites such as the Industrial Park. • A Mt. Sterling organization rep states he could hire fifty WCH residents if a shuttle could be provided. 2. Housing • GA Investigators report a wait-time of over a year for safe and affordable housing is not uncommon. • GA Investigators have been forced to remove their entire family, including school-age children, to a nearby community to obtain quick and safe shelter. • Officials need to seek immediate and long-term solutions to providing affordable housing opportunities and more beds in local shelters. 3. Predatory Lending • GA Investigators researched this issue and found interest and fees can exceed 200 percent! • All efforts should be made to encourage a credit union to establish in our area. 4. Drug Court • Drug Offenses occurring years ago continue to present a barrier to stability. • A Drug Court should be immediately established in Fayette County with an emphasis on preparing an exit plan for offenders to rehabilitate and remove themselves from the jail cycle. 5. Criminality • Criminal Offenders may experience great difficulty stabilizing their lives, as records shadow them for decades. • Persuasions should be made to move to a point system, such as in driving issues, allowing for points to fall off as the years progress. 6. Pest Free • Many care to rid themselves and their homes of pests such as fleas, lice and bedbugs, however; they cannot afford the treatments or products. • Grants should be pursued to procure products for pest elimination. These should be free and perhaps dispensed by the local health department. 7. Recreation • Kudos to the city for sponsoring the Scarecrow Festival! A job well done! • The outdoor pool needs to be reestablished and offered at low cost. • More playgrounds not connected to schools should be built. • Adult supervision of free activities at area parks should be provided over summer breaks. • Any free entertainment options are welcomed.

$. Benefits and Resources • Assistance is cut as soon as one improves his or her life. • Benefits should continue for a period of months allowing citizens to fully stabilize and be able to remain stabilized. 9. Communications • Superb programs that could help one get ahead often go unnoticed. • A common posting of all free and helpful opportunities should be placed in a specific

section of the Shoppers' Guide to generate participation and assist residents .

Group 3

Transportation

1. GA Graduates expressed concern about current transportation and not having the $1.00 to ride round

trip. They live with no income and some of them living on the out-skirts of the county, makes it too far

to walk and/or ride a bike.

Medicaid

1. Graduates expressed concern about losing their current Medicaid and how they would receive medical

treatment for current conditions, if they lose their benefits.

Local Boards

1. Graduates recommended that local boards welcome and/or invite the general public, low income

individuals and homeless. Also, recommended that they “be asked” for their feedback on topics being

discussed because they feel intimidated by the community leaders and will not speak up. They felt “left

out” even when they were at the table. They also expressed concern for their voices not being heard, if

they did speak out.

Men’s Shelter

1. The group consisted of mostly men, so their concern for our community to have a men’s shelter was a

hot topic. Mostly concerned about not having one and the disadvantages of having to go out of town

to get off the streets, when they want to stay in WCH.

Group 4

GA Investigators discussed the importance of all resources that are currently in Fayette County. They also discussed the

need for additional resources to help all community members be able to rise above poverty.

The most significant need they came up with was more affordable housing. A competitiveness is absent when dealing

with the local landlords and they keep inflating the rent prices. The investigators researched Fair housing laws and

tenant rights and responsibilities to learn more about 2017 housing standards.

Other recommendations were discussed as well and included the following:

• Childcare

• Transportation

• “Buy Here, Pay Here” car dealerships

• Predatory Lending

• Youth (activities, drug prevention, Big Brother, Big Sister programs)

• More local activities ( movie theater, drive in movies, pool, Go Kart racetrack)

• Birthing unit at FCMH

• Streets and sidewalks maintained better.

• Different support groups

• Neighborhood watches

• Recovery Housing

Population in Limited English Households

This indicator reports the percentage of the population aged 5 and older living in Limited English speaking households.

A “Limited English speaking household” is one in which no member 14 years old and over (1) speaks only English at

home or (2) speaks a language other than English at home and speaks English “Very well.” This indicator is significant

as it identifies households and populations that may need English-language assistance.

Social Economic Factors

Economic and social insecurity often are associated with poor health. Poverty, unemployment, and lack of educational

achievement affect access to care and a community’s ability to engage in healthy behaviors. Without a network of

support and a safe community, families cannot thrive. Ensuring access to social and economic resources provides a

foundation for a healthy community.

Children Eligible for Free/Reduced Price Lunch

Within the report area 2,854 public school students or 58.89% are eligible for Free/Reduced Price lunch out of 4,846

total students enrolled. This indicator is relevant because it assesses vulnerable populations which are more likely to

have multiple health access, health status, and social support needs. Additionally, when combined with poverty data,

providers can use this measure to identify gaps in eligibility and enrollment.

Climate Health - High Heat Index Days

This indicator reports the percentage of recorded weather observations with heat index values over 103 degrees

Fahrenheit. The "heat index" is a single value that takes both temperature and humidity into account. The higher the

heat index, the hotter the weather feels, since sweat does not readily evaporate and cool the skin. The heat index is a

better measure than air temperature alone for estimating the risk to workers from environmental heat sources.

Housing - Housing Unit Age

This indicator reports, for a given geographic area, the median year in which all housing units (vacant and occupied)

were first constructed. The year the structure was built provides information on the age of housing units. These data

help identify new housing construction and measures the disappearance of old housing from the inventory, when used

in combination with data from previous years. This data also serves to aid in the development of formulas to determine

substandard housing and provide assistance in forecasting future services, such as energy consumption and fire

protection.

Clinical Care

A lack of access to care presents barriers to good health. The supply and accessibility of facilities and physicians, the rate

of uninsurance, financial hardship, transportation barriers, cultural competency, and coverage limitations affect access.

Rates of morbidity, mortality, and emergency hospitalizations can be reduced if community residents access services

such as health screenings, routine tests, and vaccinations. Prevention indicators can call attention to a lack of access or

knowledge regarding one or more health issues and can inform program interventions.

Access to Dentists

Population Living in a Health Professional Shortage Area

This indicator reports the percentage of the population that is living in a geographic area designated as a "Health

Professional Shortage Area" (HPSA), defined as having a shortage of primary medical care, dental or mental health

professionals. This indicator is relevent because a shortage of health professionals contributes to access and health

Preventable Hospital Events

This indicator reports the discharge rate (per 1,000 Medicare enrollees) for conditions that are ambulatory care sensitive

(ACS). ACS conditions include pneumonia, dehydration, asthma, diabetes, and other conditions which could have been

prevented if adequate primary care resources were available and accessed by those patients. This indicator is relevant

because analysis of ACS discharges allows demonstrating a possible “return on investment” from interventions that

reduce admissions (for example, for uninsured or Medicaid patients) through better access to primary care resources.

Health Outcomes

Measuring morbidity and mortality rates allows assessing linkages between social determinants of health and outcomes.

By comparing, for example, the prevalence of certain chronic diseases to indicators in other categories (e.g., poor diet

and exercise) with outcomes (e.g., high rates of obesity and diabetes), various causal relationship may emerge, allowing

a better understanding of how certain community health needs may be addressed.

Asthma Prevalence

This indicator reports the percentage of adults aged 18 and older who self-report that they have ever been told by a

Mortality - Premature Death

This indicator reports Years of Potential Life Lost (YPLL) before age 75 per 100,000 population for all causes of death,

age-adjusted to the 2000 standard. YPLL measures premature death and is calculated by subtracting the age of death

from the 75 year benchmark. This indicator is relevant because a measure of premature death can provide a unique and

comprehensive look at overall health status.
