Summary of Request:
In 2011, the Health and Human Services Advisory Board launched the Healthy Mendocino Initiative with the goal of improving the quality of life in Mendocino County. With support from a coalition of community partners, Healthy Mendocino sponsors projects that encourage informed dialogue about the actions local residents and organizations can take to improve community health. One such project was community health improvement planning, built on the results of the collaborative Community Health Needs Assessments of 2016 and 2019, which engaged citizens and organizations within Mendocino County to improve local health and the factors that influenced it. The 2019 Community Health Needs Assessment identified three areas for improvement, 1) Mental Health, 2) Domestic Abuse - including child and sexual abuse, and 3) Substance Abuse, as priorities for residents and organizations to direct actions. The proposed Agreement allows funding for North Coast Opportunities to: update and maintain the Healthy Mendocino website with important health data indicators, newsletters and articles, community Health Calendar, and links to additional health web pages; convene community forums regarding health equity and Community Health Needs Assessment priorities; connect with community agencies to check in during times of emergencies to provide support; facilitate quarterly Healthy Mendocino Round Table meetings; enhance Public Health community improvement efforts; and provide an easy to find and central location for emergency response information on the Healthy Mendocino website.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not approve this agreement and return to staff for alternative handling.
