  3. Northeast Florida Blueprint
  4. for Action: 2015 Progress Report
  5. The Clinton Foundation would like to recognize the PGA
  6. TOUR and THE PLAYERS Championship for their support
  7. and dedication in working to improve the health outcomes for
  8. Northeast Florida residents.

  11. CLINTON HEALTH MATTERS INITIATIVE
  12. How we are reducing the
  13. prevalence of preventable
  14. disease in the United States
  15. The Clinton Health Matters Initiative (CHMI) works to improve
  16. the health and wellbeing of people across the U.S. by activating
  17. individuals, communities, and organizations to make meaningful
  18. contributions to the health of others. By implementing evidencebased
  19. systems, environmental, and investment strategies,
  20. we aim to ultimately reduce the prevalence of preventable
  21. diseases, close health inequity and disparity gaps, and reduce
  22. health care costs associated with preventable diseases, thus
  23. improving the quality of life for people across the U.S.
  24. CLINTON HEALTH MATTERS INITIATIVE
  25. Transforming health
  26. through partnerships
  27. The Clinton Foundation believes that the best way to unlock
  28. human potential is through the power of creative collaboration.
  29. That’s why we build partnerships between businesses, NGOs,
  30. governments, and individuals everywhere to work faster, leaner,
  31. and better; to find solutions that last; and to transform lives
  32. and communities from what they are today to what they can
  33. be tomorrow.
  34. TRANSFORMING COMMUNITY HEALTH
  35. We know that if we want to transform our nation’s health landscape, we must
  36. start locally. In our six focus communities—Coachella Valley, Central Arkansas,
  37. Northeast Florida, Greater Houston, Adams County, Mississippi, and Knox
  38. County, IL—we bring together local stakeholders from across sectors, set local
  39. priorities, and create a five-year plan to improve health indicators unique to
  40. each community. By working with our strategic partners at the local level, our
  41. end goal is to reduce health disparities and create safer, healthier communities
  42. for generations to come.
  43. CHMI currently is working in six communities across the United States, affecting
  44. 8 million Americans living in those regions.

  109. Delores Barr Weaver Policy
  110. Center
  111. BOLD ACTIONS
  112. • Expand telemedicine for substance abuse and mental health.
  113. • Develop an integrated regional care and information exchange to increase
  114. access points to care and care coordination.
  115. • Grow telehealth systems to increase access to care in rural areas.
  116. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK TO DATE
  117. Girl Matters: Giving Girls a Voice provides critical mental health services for
  118. girls and their caregivers at no cost. Through educational groups in diversion,
  119. SAVVY skill-building groups in detention, care management, therapeutic
  120. services, advocacy, and tele-mental health counseling for girls in commitment
  121. programs, the Policy Center delivers a continuum of critical behavioral and
  122. mental health services to more than 300 underserved girls and their families.
  123. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF WORK YET TO DO
  124. We’ve learned that most girls referred to the Policy Center have suffered severe
  125. traumas never previously addressed. As our mental health professionals
  126. provide therapy to these resilient girls and young women, many self-disclose
  127. that they are victims of sex trafficking. This requires intensive girl-centered,
  128. trauma-informed care and a therapist who is willing to establish a therapeutic
  129. alliance that honors a survivor’s lived experiences. A survivor of such trauma
  130. needs a trusted professional with whom to work through the healing process
  131. in her own way.
  132. IMPACT TO DATE
  133. 82% of girls
  134. receiving individual counseling
  135. reported feeling good about
  136. changes in their lives
  137. 250+
  138. counseling
  139. sessions
  140. have been conducted
  141. with girls and their families
  142. EXPECTED FUTURE IMPACT
  143. A girl’s overall health and wellbeing cannot be separated from the health of
  144. her relationships. To effectively address the root causes that lead to poor
  145. behavioral and physical health outcomes, we must meet the girl and her
  146. family/caregivers in the context of the communities in which they live, learn,
  147. and gather. Our work is about creating a culture around girls that supports
  148. girls’ strengths and assets and that builds her social bonds—all factors that
  149. mitigate trauma and strengthen her resilience.
  150. NOTE ON COLLABORATION
  151. The work we do is collaborative in nature and requires strong relationships
  152. with our advocacy and government partners at the local, state, and national
  153. level. System reform is made possible through the cultivation of long-term,
  154. trusting, relationships with partners committed to this work.

  164. BOLD ACTIONS
  165. • Develop and begin implementation of a youth-centric strategic plan with
  166. youth for youth to address obesity and eating healthy.
  167. • Engage corner stores and other retailers to offer fresh fruit and vegetables
  168. at affordable prices.
  169. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK TO DATE
  170. The Foundation engages youth, ages 12–18, who create, design, develop,
  171. and implement healthy living initiatives in Northeast Florida. I’m a STAR’s
  172. (Smart Talented and Resilient) youth leadership team raises awareness and
  173. creates initiatives to combat childhood obesity including implementing healthy
  174. corner stores and a healthy eating social media campaign. In 2014, STAR
  175. students hosted a childhood obesity summit for over 900 youths and adults
  176. to contribute to a Youth-led Strategic Plan and Call to Action. The I’m a STAR
  177. Foundation is the 2015 1st place winner of the U. S. Conference of Mayors’
  178. childhood obesity initiatives grant.
  179. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF WORK YET TO DO
  180. I’m a STAR’s youth leaders have developed a youth-centric strategic plan
  181. to combat childhood obesity and need a national platform to develop and
  182. distribute a toolkit to America’s youth. A major part of the strategic plan involves
  183. the creation of regional healthy corner stores to combat food deserts that
  184. are prevalent in Health Zone 1, an area with the poorest health outcomes in
  185. Duval County. Another strategic effort is to provide fresh produce to senior
  186. citizens who do not have access to fruits and vegetables. Students endeavor
  187. to create partnerships that will make their plan sustainable.
  188. IMPACT TO DATE
  189. 4,000
  190. residents
  191. impacted by I’m a STAR’s
  192. Let’s Move! Jacksonville
  193. events over four years
  194. 1,000+
  195. participants
  196. at STAR student leader
  197. workshops
  198. EXPECTED FUTURE IMPACT
  199. I’m a STAR’s long-term goals are to create regional corner stores throughout
  200. Northeast Florida; host Let’s Move! Jacksonville events for at least 5,000
  201. participants annually; and host at least ten mini-childhood obesity summits
  202. each year for schools and faith-based institutions. The STAR students are
  203. determined to make a positive impact on the community and to assist all
  204. residents in practicing healthier habits.
  205. NOTE ON COLLABORATION
  206. Collaboration with the Florida Department of Health (Duval County) allows
  207. our students to gain increased knowledge and has increased the number of
  208. partners in the fight against childhood obesity.
  209. LIST OF INVOLVED PARTNERS
  210. • Duval County Health Department
  211. • Healthy Coalition of Northeast
  212. Florida
  213. • Florida Blue
  214. • Duval County Public Schools
  215. • Nemours Hospital
  216. • Duval County Food Policy Council
  217. Visit Jacksonville
  218. BOLD ACTIONS
  219. • Implement a Northeast Florida transportation plan to access education and
  220. employment opportunities.
  221. • Design and begin implementation of a regional trail and connectivity system
  222. that provides access to the beach, river, tributaries, and Intercoastal Waterway
  223. to realize the economic and health impacts to the region.
  224. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK TO DATE
  225. For the first time, regional bikeways/greenways organizations, businesses, and
  226. support agencies (both governmental and nonprofit) came together to talk
  227. about projects on which they are working, exploring ideas for collaboration
  228. and sharing ideas. These groups are devising a plan for marketing existing
  229. bikeways/greenways to drive demand. Partners are also discussing coordinated
  230. regional expansion.
  231. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF WORK YET TO DO
  232. We eventually need to fill the gaps and connect the existing trails to make
  233. a completely connected bikeway trail system. We will continue to discuss
  234. upcoming initiatives and prioritizations regionally. Funding and prioritization
  235. at the state level will be the barriers that we will overcome to achieve success.
  236. IMPACT TO DATE
  237. 45
  238. organizations
  239. represented on the
  240. bikeways and greenways
  241. communications list
  242. 7 county maps
  243. were updated to reflect
  244. available pathways
  245. EXPECTED FUTURE IMPACT
  246. The economic development potential from a coordinated strategic effort with
  247. bikeways /greenways is exponential. Product development like this enhances
  248. our regional destination’s offerings to visitors, becomes a major quality of life
  249. benefit for residents and those relocating to Jacksonville for business, and
  250. assists in the efforts to make our city a healthier city.
  251. NOTE ON COLLABORATION
  252. Collaboration is key to this initiative. Nonprofit organizations working with
  253. government agencies and officials to provide a product that is useful and safe
  254. to both residents and visitors requires everyone to have the same conversation
  255. at the same time to see progress.

  271. BOLD ACTIONS
  272. • Increase prevention programs to reduce youth crime and youth violence.
  273. • Launch regional study of factors influencing domestic violence and launch
  274. a region-wide campaign to prevent domestic violence.
  275. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK TO DATE
  276. The One Love Foundation was started in memory of Yeardley Love, a University
  277. of Virginia senior who was a victim of relationship violence. After her death,
  278. her family was surprised to learn that 1 in 3 women in this country will be in
  279. a violent relationship during her lifetime, and young people ages 16–24 are
  280. at greatest risk. Today, One Love is educating, empowering, and activating
  281. thousands of young people in a movement to change these statistics using
  282. Escalation, our unique and powerful film workshop, as a catalyst.
  283. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF WORK YET TO DO
  284. We hope to bring Escalation to every college campus in the country, including
  285. those in Northeast Florida, and we are philanthropically funding our efforts to
  286. ensure cost is no barrier. We also have partnered to bring programming to all
  287. high schools in Duval County. Our goal is to educate through Escalation, and
  288. then empower and activate students in movements on their own campuses
  289. through Team One Love. Though our initial barriers were all related to spreading
  290. the word and garnering resources, we have become increasingly known for
  291. our innovative approach.
  292. IMPACT TO DATE
  293. 97% of
  294. participants
  295. said they would recommend
  296. the workshop to a friend
  297. 85%+
  298. participants
  299. suggested that Escalation be
  300. required viewing for all college
  301. students
  302. EXPECTED FUTURE IMPACT
  303. We believe that prevention is possible, one student and one campus at a time.
  304. Escalation is just the beginning. We hope to inspire a youth-led movement by
  305. creating more innovative and compelling content that resonates with young
  306. people, personalizes relationship violence, and exposes unhealthy behaviors.
  307. If we identify and stigmatize the behaviors associated with abuse, we empower
  308. students to prevent violence before it starts.
  309. NOTE ON COLLABORATION
  310. Funding partners enable us to develop and distribute the workshop. University
  311. and community partners extend our distribution and reach. Partnerships are
  312. essential in building a movement, and we are thrilled to be building deep
  313. partnerships with the many who want to help.

  325. BOLD ACTIONS
  326. • Develop a Right to Thrive framework to be socialized community-wide.
  327. • Launch a community-wide training effort to adopt, integrate, and translate
  328. the Right to Thrive framework.
  329. • Adopt and begin implementation of a framework of “health equity” that
  330. delineates optimal requirements for support.
  331. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK TO DATE
  332. The initiative is to establish a Child-Friendly City (CFC) in order to fulfill children’s
  333. rights to optimal health and development—their Right to Thrive. Thus far we
  334. have: integrated this goal into the JAX 2025 plan and into City Resolution,
  335. implemented a Child Ombudsperson, launched a Child-Friendly Schools
  336. program, implemented a Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative, promoted Early
  337. Childhood Rights Indicators (ECRI), implemented Frameworks assessment,
  338. engaged University of North Florida to implement the CFC Community
  339. Assessment, and educated the community on the translation of child rights
  340. and equity into program development and outcomes.
  341. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF WORK YET TO DO
  342. Efforts are underway with program planning, development, and implementation.
  343. The CFC initiative is working with UNICEF UK, Canada, and United States. The
  344. Children’s Ombudsperson is working to engage the voice of youth and their
  345. participation in the community. Frameworks is conducting research on how
  346. to communicate about children’s needs and rights. All Jacksonville hospitals
  347. have moved along the Baby-Friendly continuum. The initial steps to develop
  348. a CFC community assessment have been implemented. The community has
  349. been briefed on ECRI. Most initiatives are in their early phases, and will require
  350. further development and support— including funding.
  351. IMPACT TO DATE
  352. 500+
  353. community
  354. members
  355. have learned primary
  356. research-based
  357. communications strategies
  358. 10 schools
  359. are currently engaged in the
  360. Child-Friendly Schools initiative
  361. EXPECTED FUTURE IMPACT
  362. A Child-Friendly City would ensure no child is discriminated against. The best
  363. interests of children are considered in all decisions. Children have optimal
  364. health and development. Families are supported in their roles to ensure
  365. optimal outcomes for their children. Children have a voice and are heard.
  366. Children have access to high quality education and health care services.
  367. And, children are protected from exploitation in whatever form in private and
  368. public sector venues.
  369. NOTE ON COLLABORATION
  370. All initiatives have engaged multiple and diverse community partners and
  371. depend on community collaboration for all aspects of their development and
  372. implementation. The work would not move forward without partnerships.
  373. LIST OF INVOLVED PARTNERS
  374. • University of Florida

  380. • Frameworks Institute
  381. Drug Free Duval and Nassau
  382. Crime and Drug Abatement
  383. BOLD ACTIONS
  384. • Increase substance abuse prevention and mental illness identification training
  385. with school counselors, law enforcement, and emergency responders.
  386. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK TO DATE
  387. Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) is a public
  388. health approach to early identification, intervention, and treatment services
  389. for people with or at risk of substance use disorders. Drug Free Duval initiated
  390. a community training and implementation. In 2015–2016 Nassau County
  391. prevention counselors will use SBIRT to increase referrals and access to
  392. care among youth. SBIRT Northeast Florida deploys this evidence-based
  393. tool in a more relational, immediate, and engaging way through a web-based
  394. tool, creating immediate identification of needed affirmation, intervention, or
  395. treatment and real-time data.
  396. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF WORK YET TO DO
  397. As providers implement, we provide technical support. Next steps include
  398. collecting data that our data analyst will compile. We plan to overlay the data
  399. using GIS mapping to understand behaviors, consequences, patterns, and
  400. opportunities. Ultimately, Drug Free Duval will assist with a roll-out of the
  401. strategy throughout the five county area. The largest barriers are the lack
  402. of additional time to implement the strategy and confusion about receiving
  403. reimbursement via CPT billing codes. We need greater acceptance and usage
  404. to get maximum results.
  405. IMPACT TO DATE
  406. 35 agencies
  407. informed about the SBIRT tool
  408. and available training
  409. 16 agencies
  410. trained in SBIRT
  411. and the web-based tool
  412. EXPECTED FUTURE IMPACT
  413. SBIRT Northeast Florida’s goal is to provide universal screening to youth within
  414. the five counties. Anticipated impacts include: earlier identification of risky
  415. substance abuse related behaviors; reinforcement of positive choices and
  416. behaviors; earlier and more consistent intervention of risk behaviors; ability
  417. to map patterns of use, and to deploy strategies and resources in a more
  418. targeted manner; reduction in substance abuse and addiction.
  419. NOTE ON COLLABORATION
  420. SBIRT Northeast Florida would not exist without collaboration and partnership.
  421. Partnership has enabled Drug Free Duval to purchase the web-based
  422. application of SBIRT, convene interested organizations, and provide support
  423. to execute trainings.

  438. • Preserve, renovate, and/or develop 500 units of affordable housing.
  439. • Identify and provide resources necessary to move all homeless children
  440. into appropriate housing.
  441. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK TO DATE
  442. Addressing one of the key determinants of health—access to safe, affordable
  443. housing — requires cross-system collaboration. Working collectively, the
  444. Jacksonville community is developing a comprehensive strategy to ensure each
  445. of our neighbors has a home. This has entailed redirecting resources, creating
  446. prioritization strategies, and developing new units of affordable housing with a
  447. focus on serving veterans and providing supportive housing for persons with
  448. complex challenges requiring intensive supports to maintain their housing.
  449. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF WORK YET TO DO
  450. To reach “functional zero,” a state in which no person remains homeless for
  451. more than 30 days, requires the commitment from the entire community.
  452. Elected officials and leaders within the business, faith, and philanthropic
  453. sectors must engage with area nonprofits to identify specific strategies,
  454. implement best practices, and increase capacity to rapidly rehouse all persons
  455. experiencing homelessness. It will also require active engagement in state
  456. and federal policy to advocate for the resources and policies necessary to
  457. eliminate homelessness.
  458. IMPACT TO DATE
  459. 10%
  460. reduction in
  461. homelessness
  462. 24% reduction in veteran
  463. homelessness; 18% reduction
  464. chronic homelessness
  465. 43 new
  466. affordable
  467. housing units
  468. for high-acuity formerly
  469. homeless persons
  470. EXPECTED FUTURE IMPACT
  471. If successful, this initiative will enable Jacksonville to eliminate homelessness
  472. among its veterans; provide supportive housing to all chronically homeless
  473. persons; and develop a high-functioning housing crisis response system
  474. which quickly returns any person or family with a housing crisis to stable,
  475. affordable housing. It will also engage state policy, increasing the capacity of
  476. other communities to achieve the same status.
  477. NOTE ON COLLABORATION
  478. Ending homelessness can only be achieved through collaboration and crosssector
  479. coordination. The collective efforts of the Northeast Florida community
  480. have demonstrated that homelessness is not an intractable issue; together
  481. we can end homelessness.

  500. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK TO DATE
  501. We piloted a text messaging system, CareMessage, at our Northeast Florida
  502. Healthy Start Coalition Magnolia Project, a program that works to improve the
  503. health and wellbeing of women during their childbearing years with the goal of
  504. reducing health disparities and infant mortality. Most clients live in communities
  505. with few resources, clinics, healthy food options, and safe spaces. Often
  506. clients may be hard to reach after their first visit via telephone, but almost
  507. every woman has the ability to text message. Magnolia staff are sending out
  508. client-specific messages based on goals that clients set for themselves.
  509. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF WORK YET TO DO
  510. Following a three-month pilot, we are expanding our Fatherhood Program and
  511. Healthy Start Care Coordinators. To measure our effectiveness, we will assess
  512. whether clients are more likely to attend appointments with CareMessage
  513. and compare clients’ health to other non-CareMessage clients. While text
  514. messaging does not replace the therapeutic effects of in-person support, it
  515. may enhance communication between visits. Access to care is a significant
  516. barrier in our community and being able to stay in touch with clients when
  517. they are away from case management support is key.
  518. IMPACT TO DATE
  519. 96% of teens
  520. who were abstinent while
  521. in the teen health project
  522. continued abstinent behavior
  523. 16,000+
  524. mothers
  525. & babies
  526. were served in 2014
  527. through Healthy Start
  528. EXPECTED FUTURE IMPACT
  529. Infant mortality touches on housing, education, health, social issues,
  530. employment, and environment. To achieve our targeted reduction in infant
  531. morality, we must ensure that men and women have the appropriate resources.
  532. With increased access to preventative services for men and women, more
  533. youth will be able to graduate from high school before becoming pregnant.
  534. Targeted outreach and increased access to primary care for expectant mothers
  535. will help reduce premature births and low birth weight babies. Support for
  536. new mothers will aid in facilitating safer sleeping practices, whereby babies
  537. sleep alone, on their backs, and in a crib. Inclusion of men in the reproductive
  538. health process will allow more children to have a father present in their lives.
  539. NOTE ON COLLABORATION
  540. Partnerships are so important! Access to care is a barrier and being able to
  541. stay in touch with our clients when they are away from case management
  542. support is key.

  560. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK TO DATE
  561. Walgreens Pharmacy identified that half of its locations operate in food deserts.
  562. In 2011, Walgreens joined Let’s Move!, and began converting 1,500 locations
  563. to provide more healthy food options. The Jacksonville Market was not initially
  564. selected, but we decided to meet with local farmers and vendors to establish
  565. a network to provide fresh foods and vegetables to our locations in Health
  566. Zone One in Duval County. Simultaneously, the Jacksonville Market made
  567. an effort to discuss and share effective drug policies with our prescribers,
  568. patients, and the communities we serve.
  569. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF WORK YET TO DO
  570. We have opened a channel of fresh fruits and vegetables to our locations
  571. in Health Zone One. We are looking to expand those options to include full
  572. meals. As we grow options, we will be looking to expand education for our
  573. customers and community members.
  574. Our efforts in preventing prescription drug abuse have made great advances
  575. over the last year. We continue to educate our prescribers, and we are
  576. expanding to include some of our community partners. We want to leverage

  586. 100% of the
  587. Walgreens
  588. Pharmacy
  589. locations have implemented
  590. a ‘Good Faith Dispensing’
  591. Policy
  592. EXPECTED FUTURE IMPACT
  593. We would like to continue our work by expanding healthy food access in
  594. our local food deserts. Our plan allows for all Walgreens in the area to utilize
  595. the vendor network to provide fresh fruit and vegetables. The next step is
  596. expanding education to our communities, and to show how easy (and tasty)
  597. a healthy meal is to prepare.
  598. Our goals with prescription drug abuse are to continue to drive communication
  599. between prescribers, pharmacies, and patients. This includes hearing what
  600. the community is asking, and helping all of our local partners.
  601. NOTE ON COLLABORATION
  602. Collaboration is a wonderful tool to get ideas and actions to implementation
  603. quickly. We have been able to help some of our partners, who may not have
  604. a large reach, get to the table of the drug abuse discussion and get produce
  605. into our stores.
