compiled and then CMCA’s leadership team and Board of Directors scopes it for trends, highlights, and gaps. Over the years we have used this process to adjust some of our interventions and to guide our strategic thinking. For example, since the last Community Needs Assessment was completed we have added: •

the Missouri Women’s Business Center with funding from the Small Business Administration and local support;

•

the BRIDGE program to focus on Head Start graduates as they move through kindergarten through second grade, with funding from the Boone County Children’s Services Commission;

•

ShowMe Healthy Relationships with funding from the U.S. Department of Healthy and Human Services, via a sub-contract with the University of Missouri;

•

the Mid-Missouri Mobility Project with funding from the Missouri Department of Transportation via the Mid-Missouri Regional Planning Commission.

In addition to these new programs, we have used the

Jason Ramsey board president boone | private sector term began: 10/1/2013 CMCA is a leader in providing services that empower individuals to become self-reliant, active members of their community. The agency follows five Strategic Commitments to address poverty in our eight county service area. Four of these five communicate and work directly with our communities to gain the feedback the agency needs to better individuals and communities – a testament to how the agency fulfills its mission. I am especially proud to play a very small role in eliminating poverty. No one chooses to be impoverished, so it is incumbent upon every community to ensure each of its citizens achieve the measure of success they want. This year’s community needs assessment has identified three main issues that continue to keep our citizens in poverty – reliable transportation; affordable and accessible healthcare; and higher wages. CMCA will continue its tireless efforts to address these issues and meet new ones head on so that we have empowered individuals and families to achieve self-reliance.

Executive Summary background

The 2017 Central Missouri Community Action Community Assessment is a report on the demographics, needs and trends affecting the eight counties served by Central Missouri Community Action (CMCA). It is designed to lead the Strategic Planning process for the organization over the next three (3) years (2018-2021). The counties served include Audrain, Boone, Callaway, Cole, Cooper, Howard, Moniteau and Osage. The 2017 Central Missouri Community Action

Basic needs include the social determinants of health and housing.

As one of CMCAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commitments, education plays a significant role in the health and economic stability of individuals and communities. Because early education is such a critical component of lifelong learning, CMCA is heavily vested in this area.

Executive Summary review of findings

Agency staff were divided into teams based on the areas of Education, Employment & Income, Health, Housing and Nutrition. Teams analyzed the information gathered through the surveys and secondary data. In this analysis, staff followed a 4 step process to gain a deeper understanding of the information.

1 2 3 4

Step 1 Overall look at service area focused on “Population Profile” drawn from the web based tool

Step 2 Entire group gave input on assumptions on/about population in entire service area

Step 3 Began the focused attention for each target area. Time was given to the group to look individually at the data for the target area

Step 4 Team members were given time to state their assumptions/what they know about their area. The rest of the group then provided their assumptions and observations and testing the assumptions with data and observations from a cross functional perspective. Discussion was guided by the following questions: •

What are the assumptions (what do we inherently know) about the current conditions around the Outcomes and Goals in each area?

•

Is there anything in the statistical report information from the new Comprehensive Community Needs Assessment tool that supports or counters these assumptions? Why?

•

Does the data show any surprises or concerns not yet mentioned? Why?

•

What resources, internal or external can/are being focused in this area? Why?

•

What may be the root causes for these conditions? Why?

Steps 3 and 4 were repeated for each target area.

Step 5 Discuss interrelationship between the target areas– what themes emerged and what outcomes had substantial ties to success in other areas?

Agency staff including the Chief Program Officer, Program Officers, Community Organizers, Family Development staff, Head Start staff, Public Relations Manager and the Agency Executive Director also reviewed all of the information, held discussions on what could have been the causes of various issues raised and agreed on priority issues. The staff met in March 2017 to review and prioritize the findings of this assessment. Staff presented a summary of the information obtained from each group and a priority list to the agency Board of Directors. The Directors reviewed these recommendations and developed priorities of the 2017 Community Needs Assessment. The Head Start required data and self assessment were also reviewed for cross agency implications. In June 2017, staff presented a summary of the information obtained from staff groups and the Board of Directors and presented a priority list to the agency Leadership Team. The Leadership Team, made of top-level agency management, reviewed these recommendations and determined the final priorities of the 2017 Community Assessment. In June 2017, the 2017 Community Needs Assessment was presented to the CMCA Board of Directors for final approval.

Next Steps Rather than identifying the “problems” shown through a typical needs assessment, CMCA will utilize this Community Assessment to ask “How can our communities utilize its strengths to form new opportunities, structures, and combinations for increased success and possibilities for families?” The next step in CMCA’s Transformational Plan is to revise action steps to accomplish the agency’s three year goals. These Action Steps will be based upon the priorities identified in this document and the aforementioned question, and our existing and potential new programs, services and initiatives.

Conclusion This report is designed to be the core information source for citizens, policymakers, and CMCA management staff of the critical issues facing Central Missouri families. The solution to these issues requires collaboration and multiple approaches by departments, organizations and citizens working together toward a common vision. If this report is successful, it will provide direction for groups, individuals, and organizations in the counties of Audrain, Boone, Callaway, Cole, Cooper, Moniteau, Howard and Osage counties to come together to coordinate, cooperate, and provide opportunities for communities that will result in an increased quality of life for all who live here.

had no influence on calculating rate information for that type of care. Because of this, the total number of surveys for each type of care and classification varies depending on the number of providers that reported a rate for that type of care. Caution should be used in interpreting results where there are few responses in a given geographical area or for a certain type of care. This is especially true with respect to Group Homes. Also, keep in mind that voluntary participation introduces the potential for self-selection bias. With respect to this particular survey, providers charging more than DSS rates may have a perceived incentive to return the survey in the hope of influencing state paid rates. Providers charging below or close to the DSS rates may be more satisfied and, therefore, have less incentive to respond. In addition, only licensed providers were surveyed. It is uncertain how the inclusion of unlicensed providers may have affected the results.

Findings •

Updated child care aware data were not available for the report for the majority of counties. As such, the figures calculated may be lower than they would be in 2014.

•

The cost of infant and preschool care is quite variable across counties.

•

Families at the threshold for poverty would not be able to afford even the lowest rates of care for young children. A person making minimum wage would have to work over one week ($7.25 X 40 = 290) every month just to pay for childcare.

MERIC also prepares a document listing the top 20 occupations based on the number of job openings for each region. Another source for identifying in-demand occupations is through real-time data. A tool called Burning Glass compiles information from job postings on over 38,000 sites into a database that can be queried to find information on jobs. This information provides insight on the jobs employers are currently hiring, occupations that are in-demand and skills that employers require for employees. The Missouri Real-Time Labor Market Summary compiles information queried through Burning Glass. Briefs are published for the State of Missouri, and for each region. Since the brief is published every other month, the information is always current.

Employment & Income - Cont. Child Care Costs According to Kidscount data, in the state of Missouri, 68% or more of children under 6 years of age have all available parents in the labor force. This means that quality child care programs are essential not only for early intervention and stimulating, developmentally appropriate curricula, but also because parents are working. The following table summarizes the early childhood programs available for children in the counties CMCA serves and the number of slots available that are funded by the state, Program cost information can be found on page 70.

Findings •

Updated data were not available for this report. The data above is the most recent available.

•

Howard County received the fewest subsidies (7) and Boone County received the most (128).

•

Only small percentages of subsidies are available for young children across the counties served by CMCA; the smallest percentage was in Cole County with 2% of children eligible for subsidies. Audrain County had the highest percentage with subsidies available for 5% of children. Given the percentages of children under 5 in poverty (see Table 1), the children Head Start serves do not have enough available slots in center, home or group based programs in their communities.

Commuter Travel Patterns Commuting patterns tell us a great deal about a region. In the Central Region, a majority of the workforce commutes to a different county to work. In fact, over half the workforce in 6 of the 8 counties in the region leave the county where they live for employment. In contrast, only 23% of the workforce leaves the Central Region for employment. From these facts, we can conclude that most persons commute to a different county within the Central Region for employment. In addition, we can also infer that persons living in the Central Region are skilled in the industries and occupations in demand in this region. The table below shows the percent of employees working outside of their home county. Report Area

Employment & Income - Cont. Alternative Measures of Labor Underutilization in Missouri â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 2015 In 2015, the broadest measure of labor underutilization, designated U-6 (which includes the unemployed, workers employed part time for economic reasons, and those marginally attached to the labor force), was 9.3 percent in Missouri, significantly lower than the 10.4-percent rate for the nation, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Regional Commissioner Stanley W. Suchman noted that all six alternative measures of labor underutilization in Missouri had statistically significant decreases from a year ago. Nationally, all six measures also declined significantly over the year. (See table 1.) The official concept of unemployment, U-3 in the U-1 to U-6 range of measures, includes all jobless persons who are available to take a job and have actively sought work in the past 4 weeks. In Missouri, 5.0 percent of the labor force was unemployed as measured by U-3 in 2015, not measurably different from the 5.3-percent rate for the nation. (See chart 1.) (The official measure of unemployment in states is derived using a statistical model that incorporates data from the Current Population Survey [CPS] and other sources, and this model-based estimate can differ from the direct CPS estimate discussed here.)

Missouri had 155,500 unemployed residents in 2015 according to the CPS. In addition, there were 105,200 workers who were employed part time for economic reasons (also known as involuntary part time). These individuals were working part time because of slack work or business conditions, or because they were unable to find a full-time job. (See chart 2.) Nationwide, there were 6.4 million individuals working part time for economic reasons in 2015.

Primary needs identified in Nutrition include:

quate nutrition. SNAP benefits are supplemental and are

•

Education about available food resources and eligibility

•

Enhanced access to food markets

•

Greater access to nutritions, affordable food

•

Social perception of food/nutrition needs

not sufficient to meet a family’s nutritional needs. Foods available through food pantry programs are not always of the highest nutritional value and focus more on “filling the stomach” rather than on nutritional value. School breaks can be difficult for children who may only have schoolbased meals to meet their nutrition needs while fresh fruits and vegetables are available at a high cost. Data supports these assumptions and shows that of the 10% of families in Central Missouri eligible for WIC services, only 2.3-2.5% actually participate in the program. Data shows that of the 59,450 individuals who are food insecure in Central Missouri, 34% do not quality for food assistance. Of those, 5,280 are children. Food deserts exist in all eight counties of the region and transportation barriers can make food access a challenge for low income families.

Hello Eat Healthy, Stay Active! Friends, For the third time, the Eat Healthy, Stay Active! program has come to a close. The CMCA team finished this year’s program with another finale for the families and a Success Luncheon for the staff and community! We hope you enjoy this edition of the EHSA Highlights! Parent Training: In the past, parent trainings were split into 2-3 trainings. This year, parents were trained in a 1-day, 8 hour session. On Saturday, January 9, 2016, staff, medical students and parents joined together and participated in the 2016 EHSA Parent Training. A total of 40 families participated. Once again the curriculum was split amongst the medical students to present to the parents. Each student really brought enthusiasm to the training and the parents loved it!

Cole County Training: A new addition this year was to add an additional county into the program as an expansion pilot to see how effective the program would be without the assistance of the medical students. Mernell King and Jessica Harris co-trained twenty (20) families in Cole County February 16th and 23rd, 2016. As promised in the JR Albert Foundation grant proposal, this program would eventually be expanded to all of the counties that CMCA serves. Although the medical student piece will stay in Boone County, we did have one student assist with this training since she missed the training held in January. This program has been requested numerous times by families outside of Boone County and we are excited to be able to expand this year. Childcare was also provided at these trainings compliments of community volunteers.

Classroom Activities: The children seem to love the classroom curriculum! During this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s program, 130 children participated in 8 different classrooms (Boone, Cooper and Cole counties). This number includes children of parents who did not participate in the program.

Follow-up Activities: Activities were held outside of the classroom once again that included the children, their families and the medical students. Such activities consisted of going to indoor play gyms, trip to the grocery store, bowling, etc. This is where the families get another opportunity to connect with their medical student and get active!

Finale Event: The finale was held April 27, 2016. Sixteen families attended from both Boone, Cooper and Cole counties this year.

Success Luncheon: Central Missouri Community Action (CMCA) hosted the 3rd Annual Success Luncheon, Friday, April 29, 2016. Staff and medical students joined together to celebrate another successful year with a lunch and recognition for those that helped make this program such a success.

Meetings: We will be updating the Guiding Coalition Member list soon. Once this list is established, a meeting will be organized. Student Liaisons: The CMCA team will be working with Colin and Lauren in June to start the application process for the new liaisons. Special Thanks: Once again, a special THANKS goes out to the Jackie Rivera, all of the Medical Students, the MPH interns and Dr. Beucke for their time and assistance in the program. We could not have done this without them! The amazing staff of CMCA Head Start are also to be commended for a job well done! Miscellaneous: Have you checked out our FaceBook page lately? Lots of great updates and tips are posted just like this one each and every day!

BRIDGE Evaluation Update: January 18, 2016 Melissa Stormont, PhD, Evaluator Report Information: This report includes mid-year progress with the first cohort of children, families, and teachers in the BRIDGE project. Data were collected across all key areas and are summarized below according to the specific outcomes of children, family, teachers and community. Some of the data were collected for the purpose of pretest/posttest comparisons and have not been systematically evaluated due to the mid-year timeframe of this report. In these instances the report will state the number of participants for which data have been collected for this purpose. Participants: Families of children who transitioned from HS to Columbia Public Schools were invited to participate in the BRIDGE and an impressive response rate of 73% (n = 30) families consented to participate. Children transitioned to 14 elementary schools. To date 14 teachers of children have participated in the BRIDGE. Teachers demographic characteristics include they are all female and 12 are Caucasian and 2 are African-American. Three children are without participating teachers. Demographics of families and children enrolled: All children and their families participating in the BRIDGE meet the federal guidelines for poverty. Race: Non-Latino: Black or African American -14 Native American Indian or Alaskan Native-0 Asian-0 Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islanders-0 Multiple racesOther race-Nigerian-1 -Thailand-1 -Arabic-2 -White-5 Languages -Arabic-2 -Burmese-1 -Spanish-6 -English-20 Latino Of all races -6

Individuals Served by Gender Numbers of person served: Adults: Some are same household Female-26 Male-8 Other Individuals Served by Gender Numbers of person served: Children: Female-13 Male-16 Other BRIDGE OUTCOMES Outcome 1 – Children participating in the BRIDGE will show increased social and emotional competence. Mid-year 1. The Parent Partners have been trained to use the DESSA with families and the BRIDGE teachers were trained on 8-5-2015 during the training week. Pretest DESSA scores have been collected for all children. Families received feedback on their children’s need areas and family success plans are written with the broader family needs in mind as well. In addition to supporting families with supporting their children’s academic and social emotional success, parent partners are also meeting with teachers to develop child success plans based on the data. Teachers will work with the parent partners to determine specific goals for children in identified areas of need. The following format is followed during these meetings with teachers. Review observations Review DESSA Data Target Needs-1 or 2 to address first Review intervention strategies Identify one or two strategies Steps for strategies Identify barriers to implementation and ways to minimize Simple data to collect  Review while completing Child Success Plan

       

Outcome 2 –Parents participating in the BRIDGE will increase their resilience and their ability to support the social and emotional competence of their children. Mid-year 1: Parents have participated in home visits from the Parent Partners. During each visit parent partners provide support for families across multiple types of need areas. Parent partners also assist families by providing resources for different services. Some examples of resources that have been provided for families include: citizenship documentation, child care before or after school, housing issues, TANF assistance, counseling, specialized testing, job searches, healthy lifestyle choices, finance organization, available assistance for diapers, higher education resources, and help with enrollment in extracurricular activities. Events are also held each month to support family interactions and support knowledge around a specific topic. At the beginning of the program approximately 25% of families participated in events and now, mid-year approximately 50% or more have been attending events. Parent partners continue to give books to the BRIDGE families at every event and home visits. This helps promote literacy in the home and builds on the child’s academic success in the classroom. The following topics have been discussed at each event.     

September-Meet and Greet for program October-Reject November-Family dinner December-Relationship building and Communication January- Self Care

All families have also completed the family assessment, DARS, DESSA, Wellness Wheel and the family success plan for the fall and parent partners will complete all of these assessments again in spring. All families except one have completed the DASS and this family will complete the assessment next month. Pretest-postest data for all assessments will be provided in the final report. As an ongoing tool for tracking participation in accessing community resources, all families are provided with passports. Passports are a way to promote active participation within the community to build social-emotional learning, support the academic success of the children, and promote healthy lifestyles. Parents can get signatures for wellness doctor visits, going to their local library to check out books, participation in volunteer opportunities, mental health appointments, and activities at the child’s school (e.g., parent teacher conference). Outcome 3 – Teachers engaged with the BRIDGE will have deeper relationships with parents and will implement classroom strategies that support the social and emotional competency of their students.

Mid-Year 1: Teachers received 40 hours of training last August on variety of topics of importance for the BRIDGE including poverty, social and emotional screening (DESSA), Trauma and children/families, Compassion Fatigue, motivational interviewing, and child success plans. Teachers also completed HomeWorks training. Evaluation data were collected to determine teacher perceptions of the effectiveness of each training. Teachers were very positive about all of the training events and each event had almost perfect attendance. All families have had one teacher home visit and are in the process of receiving the second teacher visit for the spring semester. Three families do not receive teacher visits due to not having a participating teacher in the program. Teachers are invited to attend the monthly family events. So far this year, approximately 25% of teachers attend at each event. Teachers in the BRIDGE also completed a survey on their beliefs regarding their skills, abilities, and needs for support as well as their current stress and coping skills. The following tables summarize the questions BRIDGE teachers answered (November, 2015). How much can you doâ&#x20AC;Ś. (1)

Teacher data will be used descriptively to inform teacher need for support in the BRIDGE and as an early assessment to be compared to the same questions answered at the end of the year to determine if scores increase or decrease over time. To explore relationships among the stress, coping, and burnout items, correlations were conducted with the data from the 12 teachers. Significant relationships were found for stress and coping (negative), stress and burnout (positive), and stress and additional support for coping (positive). An additional correlation was almost significant for the relationship between need for support in coping and how well teachers were coping with stress (negative). Positive correlation coefficients mean that as one characteristic (variable) increases so does the other; negative correlation coefficients mean that as one variable increases the other decreases. These data support what the research in this area has found-teachers need support to cope with the stress of their jobs. Outcome 4 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Parent, professionals and community members will enhance their capacities for supporting the social and emotional competency of children. Progress: Columbia Cares for Kids (CCK) in tandem with several other agencies worked to bring the Reject film to Columbia. This film was intended to support community growth in the understanding the social and emotional needs of children and families, especially those with the highest level of toxic stress and who have experience multiple traumatic events. The BRIDGE personnel took the initiative to develop an assessment of the filmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impact on community members according to their knowledge, growth, and their overall perceptions of the events, which included discussion. In addition, approximately one-month after the event, additional follow-up data were gathered to determine if members in the community changed any of their practices given what they had learned through participation in the event and to determine future professional development needs. The following reports were provided to the community agencies and representatives to disseminate main findings.

Summary The previewing and post viewing data indicate that participants believed they increased their knowledge on key issues related to the information assessed. The one area that decreased after the event was how participants could positively impact bullying in their community.

The highest ratings were provided for the presentation of information, raising awareness of issues, and the opportunity for learning about issues. The lowest ratings were given for connecting individuals and groups, sharing resources, and facilitation of activities with these items having more ratings in the neutral range. It is important to note very few participants rated any of the items as not effective (0%-4%).

Summary Additional items were added to assess overall satisfaction and the likely impact on participantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s knowledge and understanding. Ratings were more varied but the majority agreed or strongly agreed with all items. Importantly, 85% were satisfied with the event and 84% would recommend the end to a colleague or friend. Descriptive summary of Rejection Survey response for if there was anything they would like to change? Many of the participants did not give input on the short answer section of the survey, but of those that did many stated they would have liked to learn more intervention for what they could do as a teacher. Other participants stated that they wished more teachers were able to come to the events

and that everyone that worked in the school could see the film. At one of the location almost all of the surveys stated that they would have liked for the event to have started on time. Descriptive summary of Rejection Survey response for if there was anything they would like to change by location •

•

When participants at location 1 (Centralia) were asked if there was anything that they would change to make the seminar better the majority of participants stated that the film only showed the impacts of rejection, they would have liked to see interventions for rejection. At location 2, Hickman high school, only 10 of the participants wrote feedback on the survey. Overall the participants said that there was not much that they would like to be changed about the day. Some did state that the film placed too much emphasis on the early years and not enough emphasis on older youth. At the food bank, location 3, participants noted that they would have liked the event to start on time. Some of the other participants said they would have benefited from more in depth discussion with the panel. Location 4 was at the University of Missouri, participants did not have much to say that they would change. The only thing participants stated was that they wished more teachers had showed up and that there was better advertising. Location 5 was at the library, participants wanted to add something about what bystanders can do to prevent rejection and how they can provide more support as teachers. Location 6 was at Woodcrest church, participants stated that there was nothing they wanted to change.

Descriptive summary of Rejection Survey response for what was something they learned that they could share with others? In every single location people wrote that they loved the phrase “you can’t say you can’t play”. Participants also commented on how they learned about the connection between emotional and physical pain in regards to rejection. Most of the survey comments were related to how much they loved the film and the workshop.

Data Summary The main take away messages were the negative impact of rejection, ostracism and bullying and how participants can positively impact rejection, ostracism and bullying in their community. Most participants indicated some change to specific practices when working with children (53% somewhat or strongly agreed) and teachers (60% somewhat agreed). Participants were less likely to have changed practices around work with professionals and families. The vast majority also indicated they wanted to learn more about bullying 69-79% indicated agreement with wanting more information and learning more about bullying. There were two additional questions, which are summarized below. Response to: Would you like to have a professional development opportunity with the psychologist Amanda Harrist (she conducted the program you can’t say you can’t play in the classroom)? Out of the 18 participants, 9 said that they would like further professional development from Amanda Harrist, 5 said that they would not like further professional development and 4 stated that they were not sure (because they were unsure of the cost or were not a teacher). Response to: Additional comments Many of the participants added that they really liked the film and they enjoyed the phrase “You can’t say you can’t play.”

Community Assessment 2015

CMCA HEAD START COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT UPDATES OF REQUIRED ELEMENTS 2015-2016 Head Start began in 1965 as a comprehensive child development program and has provided hope and support to over 22 milion low-income children and their families since that time. Despite changing politics and fiscal climates, Head Start has remained strong and continues to provide quality services. Children need support across contexts for healthy development. Accordingly, it is imperative that Head Start programs are prepared to respond to the changing needs of individual communities. The data have been organized to address Head Start’s regulation CFR 1305.3, which requires programs to determine their community’s strengths and needs by collecting and analyzing data related to these areas: 1. Demographic make-up of Head Start eligible children and families including their estimated number, geographic location and racial and ethnic composition in their community assessment. 2. Other child development and child care programs that are serving Head Start eligible children, including publicly funded State and local preschool programs and the approximate number of Head Start eligible children served by each. 3. The estimated number of children with disabilities four years old or younger, including types of disabilities and relevant services and resources provided to these children by community agencies. 4. Data regarding the education, health, nutrition and social service needs of Head Start eligible children and their families. 5. The education, health, nutritional and social service needs of Head Start eligible children and their families as defined by families of head Start eligible children and by institutions in the community that serve young children. 6. Resources in the community that could be used to address the needs of Head Start eligible children and their families including assessment of their availability and accessibility. The Kids Count report entitled The First Eight Years (Kids Count, 2013) underscores the importance of working toward supporting children’s development across these outlined areas. “According to decades of research, the best way to ensure a successful workforce in the future is to invest in early childhood development now. And the best way to provide early learning for needy kids is by coordinating family, school and community efforts. But analysis shows that by age 8, most children in the United States are not on track in cognitive knowledge and skills because efforts are not coordinated or linked to outcomes. This KIDS COUNT policy report makes the case for an integrated and comprehensive solution to meet the developmental needs of all children through age 8.”

Community Assessment 2015

Head Start CFR 1305.3 Priority 1 - demographic make-up of Head Start eligible children and families including their estimated numbers, geographic locations and racial and ethnic composition. The two most common measures of poverty are poverty thresholds, used by the US Census, and poverty guidelines, which are used by many agencies to determine eligibility for programs. Poverty thresholds for a family of 4 with two related children under 18 years of age in 2016 = 24,300 (https://www.federalregister.gov/articles/2016/01/25/2016-01450/annual-update-of-the-hhs-povertyguidelines) and 2016 poverty guidelines for a family of 4 = $ 24,300 (https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-864p.pdf ). These two indices are very close in their estimations, although they are not always exact amounts as they are in 2016. Many authorities in the field of poverty are making serious attempts to advocate for changing the way the US government defines poverty. The formula used to determine poverty today was developed in the 1960s and is outdated and seriously underestimates the financial needs of families in the 21st century. Increased costs for housing, childcare, healthcare and transportation have significantly changed the ratio in the past 50 years. The following tables detail the poverty rates for the children and families served by CMCA Head Start as well as the percentage of children who are receiving assistance for health and nutrition needs.

Child poverty rates (children under 6 years of age) were lowest for Moniteau and Osage counties and highest for Audrain.

•

In Audrain county, 44% of children are in poverty.

•

In all but one of CMCA counties child poverty rates were higher than the average rate of poverty in those counties.

•

There may be need for adult education regarding services and benefits families of small children may be elibile for receiving.

•

Very small percentages of children served by CMCA counties receive cash assistance including a range of 1.4% in Osage county to 3.8% in Cole county.

•

Children in Audrain need support given their risk for poverty and need for support.

Main Findings: •

Most counties CMCA serves do not have as much diversity as the overall state of Missouri.

•

The most prevalent race in the CMCA region is White ranging from 82.3% in Boone County to 98.4% in Osage. It is clear that Osage County has very little diversity, overall, and when compared to state rates and rates in other counties served in the CMCA region.

•

Boone County has the most diversity with rates of racial and ethnic backgrounds mirroring state averages with the exception of Asian, which is higher than the state rates.

•

The second most prevalent race in the CMCA region is Black. No county exceeds the state average for percentage of Black individuals.

•

Moniteau has an average of 5.0% Hispanic individuals and is the only county with an average higher than the state average for Hispanics.

Summary: •

On average, across counties, 19-35% of children live in single parent households.

•

The county with the highest perentage of single parent households is Cole county and the county with the lowest percentage is Osage county.

•

In most counties the percentage of persons living in the same house for more than one year is similar to the state rate; Osage county has the highest percentage of persons living in the same house and Boone has the lowest. Boone’s percentage is likely influenced by the college and university population.

•

Osage County had the lowest percentage of foreign born persons living in the home and Boone county had the highest. Only Boone County exceeds state rates for Foreign born persons.

•

Moniteau and Boone Counties had the highest percentages of persons who speak another language at home at 8.3% and 8.0%; they were the only counties with higher percentages than Missouri’s average of 6.1%. The other counties had much lower rates.

•

The average number of persons per household didn’t vary much across counties and are close to state averages.

Head Start CFR 1305.3 Priority 2 - Other child development and child care programs that are serving Head Start eligible children, including publicly funded State and local preschool programs and the approximate number of Head Start eligible children served by each. According to Kidscount data, in the state of Missouri, 68% or more of children under 6 years of age have all available parents in the labor force. This means that quality child care programs are essential

Summary of Interpretative Services (Data and Summary by Myriam Marquez) This program provides interpretation and translation services to Head Start and Early Head Start families with limited English Proficiency to ensure effective communication between staff and parents. CMCA IS offers Head Start, Early Head Start and Prenatal families a language choice during Home visits, PTC, Policy Council and Parent meetings to ensure cultural and effective communication. One of the most important aspects for interpretive services is to respect every family’s beliefs, tradition and cultural background. It is not just about language; it’s about learning and building relationships through respecting and honoring diversity and culture by facilitating linguistic and cross-cultural communication. CMCA Head Start interpreters ensure they are offering culturally and linguistically appropriate services to our families. An important part of Central Missouri Community Action Interpretive Services is to help spread diversity awareness. Spreading awareness is what has helped make our program so successful. We held a Multicultural Fall Festival, where we invited Head Start families to share and celebrate the many cultures that make up our program. This event was a great opportunity to bring community awareness and recognize the diversity that is present all around us, especially in our program. The Head Start families enjoyed themselves. We also had some families help by bringing different items from their countries such as traditional clothing, crafts and pictures. This helped them to share a little taste of their culture with the rest of the community. We had volunteers perform traditional dances from Mexico. We also made informational posters about the many nations that our current Head Start families come from. However, what made this event so special was that families from different cultures were able to share and connect with families of other cultures. This allowed the people who were at the Multicultural Fall Festival to learn about the other cultures that are in Head Start and our community. In the World Refugee Day 2015, Central Missouri Community Action, alongside the Refugee Center from Columbia, MO celebrated the courage, strength and determination of our local refugees, to increase refugee stakeholder engagement in the local community to better serve refugees. CMCA Head Start focuses in immigrant integration, with considerable attention to refugees. Our Interpretive Services highlights the importance of welcoming communities. CMCA is committed to welcoming refugees and supporting their successful integration in our community as they work to rebuild their lives, become engaged citizens, and live in peace and dignity. We are working to develop strategies to address cultural, linguistic, and other special needs that migrant and refugee parents may encounter while they acclimatize to our community. CMCA is also exploring ways to ensure access to our services and programs that are

Community Assessment 2015

available to individuals with limited English proficiency. We want to demonstrate how states, communities, organizations and individuals can play a critical role in building and strengthening welcoming communities. CMCA Head Start Program-Interpretive Services staff attended the event to facilitate communication to the new families; we also provided Head Start brochures in 7 different languages (Burmese, Arabic, Tamil, French, Chinese, Spanish and English). We provided information about requirements and how to apply to our wonderful Head Start program. Table 13 Parent Education Needs County

Head Start CFR 1305.3 Priority 5- The education, health, nutritional and social service needs of Head Start eligible children and their families as defined by families of head Start eligible children and by institutions in the community that serve young children. (Summary by Tammy Hawk) Over the course of this program year and the three previous years (14-15, 13-14 and 12-13) levels of parent satisfaction were assessed twice per program year. Each enrolled family was encouraged to complete the surveys online both of the times they were administered. A benchmark of a 90% return rate was established as the desired target. The numbers below reflect the totals received in both the winter and spring of the current year. **Families with more than one child may only complete one survey per family for winter and spring.

Community Assessment 2015 • • •

Staff Knowledge and Performance – There was an increase in parent satisfaction going from 79.12% last year to 83.83 this year (4.71% increase). Overall, across all areas, families rated they were satisfied with the services they receive through Head Start. In the future, staff will work to achieve more family participation given the lower than desired response rates. Although the response rates are adequate for survey research, it is the desire of CMCA to gather as much information from families as possible especially for this Priority.

Head Start CFR 1305.3 Priority 6 - Resources in the community that could be used to address the needs of Head Start eligible children and their families including: assessment of their availability and accessibility.

100% of Head Start Programs have a Comprehensive Community Resource Guide, which includes all categories listed in the matrix.

â&#x20AC;˘

100% of Head Start Programs provide families with information about the Resource Guide during planned home visits.

BRIDGE Grant CMCA has received additional funding for a local grant, the BRIDGE, to support children enrolled in Head Start as they transition to kindergarten. Efforts to identify and connect families with resources in the community as well as to educate the community about needs for sustained support for children and their families who are at risk due to poverty are described in an addendum to this report. The BRIDGE was provided funding for another 18-month period and one key component for the reauthorized funding was building an inventory of community resources to help families and children with significant mental health concerns. Additional information for the BRIDGE is attached in Appendix C of this report.
