EL NUEVO COMIENZO (ENC) (THE NEW START) - THE UNITED COMMUNITY CENTER’S (UCC) EL NUEVO COMIENZO (ENC) (THE NEW START) PROJECT WILL EXPAND/ENHANCE ACCESS TO MEDICATION-ASSISTED TREATMENT (MAT) SERVICES FOR 332 RESIDENTS OF MILWAUKEE COUNTY WITH AN OPIOID USE DISORDER (OUD) SEEKING OR RECEIVING MAT. SERVICES WILL BE DELIVERED WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF UCC’S MULTI-PROGRAM COMMUNITY CENTER SERVING MC’S HISPANIC COMMUNITY. WHILE THE UCC SUD TREATMENT PROGRAM SERVES INDIVIDUALS OF ALL RACES/ETHNICITIES, IN 2019, 30% OF THOSE SERVED WERE HISPANIC, ABOUT TWICE THE PROPORTION (15.6%) OF HISPANICS WHO LIVE IN THE COUNTY AS A WHOLE. IN 2018, MILWAUKEE HAD THE 5TH HIGHEST RATE (.49%) OF PAST-YEAR HEROIN USE AMONG THE NATION’S 60 LARGEST URBAN AREAS. ACCORDING TO THE MILWAUKEE COUNTY MEDICAL EXAMINER’S OFFICE, 435 PEOPLE DIED FROM OPIOID OVERDOSE IN 2020 THROUGH OCTOBER 18TH, ALREADY THE HIGHEST ANNUAL TOTAL EVER RECORDED. AT THAT RATE, THE TOTAL DEATHS FOR 2020 WOULD PROJECT TO FULL-YEAR TOTAL OF 523, A GREATER THAN 100% INCREASE FROM JUST 5 YEARS EARLIER (255). THE ZIP CODES WITH THE MOST DEATHS IN 2019 WERE 52204 (38 DEATHS) AND 53215 (46), THE TWO ZIP CODES REPRESENTING THE HEART OF UCC’S SERVICE AREA. THE MILWAUKEE COUNTY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH DIVISION (BHD), WHICH PROVIDES TREATMENT TO LOW-INCOME PERSONS, REPORTS THAT, IN 2019, 26.2% OF INDIVIDUALS SEEKING TREATMENT REPORTED OPIOIDS AS THEIR PRIMARY SUBSTANCE AT INTAKE. IN CONTRAST, FULLY 60.2% (404 OF 671) OF THOSE RECEIVING TREATMENT AT UCC IN 2019 REPORTED THEIR PRIMARY SUBSTANCE AS OPIOIDS - AND 72.4% (218 OF 301) OF THOSE ADMITTED TO RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT. UCC WILL ADMIT PERSONS TO ENC WHO MEET CRITERIA FOR RESIDENTIAL LEVEL OF CARE. HOWEVER, THE ENTIRE CONTINUUM OF CARE (DAY TREATMENT AND OUTPATIENT) WILL BE AVAILABLE WHEN CLIENTS ARE READY TO STEP DOWN TO A LOWER LEVEL OF CARE. UCC OPERATES THREE RESIDENTIAL FACILITIES WITH 47 BEDS (15 FOR MEN, 32 FOR WOMEN) INCLUDING FAMILY SUITES SO CHILDREN CAN RESIDE WITH THEIR MOTHERS. THE MAJOR EC TREATMENT FRAMEWORK WILL BE THE MATRIX MODEL IN COMBINATION WITH ONSITE MAT PROVIDED BY AN ADVANCED PRACTICE NURSE PRESCRIBER (APNP) WITH A DOCTORATE IN NURSING PRACTICE (DNP). OTHER EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICES INCLUDE SEEKING SAFETY, TO ADDRESS THE TRAUMA HISTORIES AND SYMPTOMS THAT COMMONLY CO-OCCUR WITH SUD, AND MOTIVATIONAL INTERVIEWING. ALL CLIENTS WILL BE ASSIGNED A RECOVERY SUPPORT COORDINATOR (RSC) WHO WILL ASSIST THEM TO DEVELOP A RECOVERY PLAN OF CARE (RPOC) BASED ON A COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT OF THEIR CLINICAL AND PSYCHOSOCIAL NEEDS AS WELL AS THOSE OF THEIR FAMILY. UCC HAS PUT TOGETHER A ROBUST NETWORK OF COMMUNITY PARTNERS THAT WILL OFFER SUPPORTIVE SERVICES FROM HOUSING TO PRE/POSTNATAL CARE, TO CHILD/FAMILY SERVICES, TO EDUCATION/EMPLOYMENT SERVICES. MEASURABLE OBJECTIVES INCLUDE: TREATMENT RETENTION, DECREASED SUBSTANCE USE, DECREASED MENTAL/HEALTH/TRAUMA SYMPTOMS, SCREENING FOR HIV/VIRAL HEPATITIS, PROGRESS ON ECONOMIC SELF-SUFFICIENCY, NO NEW CRIMINAL JUSTICE INVOLVEMENT, ACCESS TO STABLE HOUSING, AND CONNECTION TO SOCIAL SUPPORTS.

UNITED COMMUNITY CENTER EL NUEVO COMIENZO (ENC) (THE NEW START) PROJECT - THE UNITED COMMUNITY CENTER’S (UCC) PROPOSED EL NUEVO COMIENZO (ENC) (THE NEW START) PROJECT WILL SERVE MEN AND WOMEN WITH SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS OR CO-OCCURRING SUBSTANCE USE AND MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS WHO RESIDE IN MILWAUKEE COUNTY, WI. ENC WILL FOCUS ON INDIVIDUALS WITH OPIOID USE DISORDER, PRIORITIZING ADMISSION FOR PEOPLE WHO INJECT DRUGS. PARTICIPANTS WILL RECEIVE SUD TREATMENT IN A RESIDENTIAL LEVEL OF CARE INCLUDING ONSITE MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT (MAT). ENC WILL SERVE 170 (UNDUPLICATED) INDIVIDUALS OVER THE 3-YEAR GRANT PERIOD: 50 IN YEAR 1 AND 60 IN EACH OF YEARS 2 AND 3. SERVICES WILL BE DELIVERED WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF UCC’S MULTI-PROGRAM COMMUNITY CENTER SERVING MILWAUKEE’S HISPANIC COMMUNITY. THE PROGRAM WILL EMPLOY AN INTEGRATION OF TWO EVIDENCE-BASED APPROACHES TO OUD TREATMENT: 1) A BEHAVIORAL TREATMENT, THE MATRIX MODEL, AND 2) A PHARMACOLOGICAL TREATMENT, MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT (MAT). MAT, WHICH IS A PART OF THE MATRIX MODEL, WILL BE AN IMPORTANT TREATMENT COMPONENT, GIVEN THAT THE DRUG OF CHOICE FOR ABOUT THREE-QUARTERS OF UCC CLIENTS IS OPIOIDS. AT ADMISSION, PARTICIPANTS IN ENC WILL BE THOSE WHO MEET ASAM CRITERIA STANDARDS FOR LEVEL 3 (RESIDENTIAL) LEVEL OF CARE. ENC WILL OFFER MAT ONSITE. PROJECT PARTNER CLEANSLATE IS CO-LOCATED IN UCC’S TREATMENT FACILITY. CLEANSLATE WILL OFFER ENC CLIENTS BUPRENORPHINE OR NALTREXONE, AS MEDICALLY INDICATED, AS PART OF AN INDIVIDUALIZED TREATMENT PLAN. THIS ENABLES OPIOID USERS WHO ENTER TREATMENT AT UCC TO BEGIN MAT IMMEDIATELY (WITHIN 24 HOURS) AND TO BE RETAINED IN MAT FOR A SUSTAINED PERIOD OF TIME, ESPECIALLY IF THEY CHOOSE TO STAY IN UCC DAY/OUTPATIENT LEVEL OF CARE UPON COMPLETION OF RESIDENTIAL. THE COMBINATION OF THE IMPACT OF SUBSTANCES ON THE BODY, THE MASKING OF PHYSICAL PROBLEMS BY THE SUBSTANCES, AND THE REDUCED ACCESS TO MEDICAL CARE FOR LOW-INCOME INDIVIDUALS ENSURES THAT PARTICIPANTS SERVED IN ENC WILL BE IN NEED OF CONSISTENT MEDICAL ATTENTION. PRIMARY HEALTH AND OTHER MEDICAL CARE WILL BE PROVIDED BY FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTER (FQHC) SIXTEENTH STREET COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER (SSCHC). THE GOAL IS THE FULL INTEGRATION OF BEHAVIOR HEALTH SERVICES, MONITORED BY THE UCC NURSE (RN), WITH THE FULL RANGE OF MEDICAL SERVICES AVAILABLE THROUGH SSCHC. GIVEN THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN SUD AND TRAUMA HISTORY/SYMPTOMS, ALL SERVICE DELIVERY WILL BE TRAUMA-INFORMED, WHICH HELPS STAFF TO UNDERSTAND BEHAVIOR AS COPING MECHANISMS RATHER THAN PATHOLOGY; AVOID TRAUMA-TRIGGERING REACTIONS; ADJUST THEIR BEHAVIOR AND MODIFY THE ORGANIZATIONAL CLIMATE TO SUPPORT THE CLIENT’S HEALTHY COPING CAPACITY; AND ALLOW THEM TO MANAGE THEIR TRAUMA SYMPTOMS SO THEY ARE ABLE TO BENEFIT FROM THE SERVICES. IN ADDITION A TRAUMA SPECIFIC CURRICULUM, SEEKING SAFETY WILL BE PROVIDED FOR ALL CLIENTS. PROJECT GOALS ARE 1) PROVIDE TREATMENT & RECOVERY SUPPORT SERVICES TO INDIVIDUALS WITH SUD/COD, PRIMARILY THOSE WITH OUD; 2) PARTICIPANTS WILL BE RETAINED IN SUD/COD TREATMENT.; 3) CONNECT PEOPLE WITH OUD TO MAT; 4) PARTICIPANTS WILL DECREASE SUBSTANCE USE; 5) IMPROVE PARTICIPANTS' MENTAL HEALTH; 6) PARTICIPANTS WILL HAVE STABLE HOUSING ARRANGEMENTS; 7) PARTICIPANTS WILL IMPROVE THEIR EMPLOYMENT AND/OR EDUCATION STATUS; 8) DECREASE INVOLVEMENT IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM; 9) PARTICIPANTS WILL IMPROVE SOCIAL SUPPORTS FOR RECOVERY; 10) INCREASE ACCESS TO HEALTH SERVICES FOR UNDERSERVED POPULATIONS.

FY 2024 BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICE EXPANSION - NEED: UCFS’ SERVICE AREA COVERS MOST OF NEW LONDON AND SOUTHERN WINDHAM COUNTIES WITH THE HIGHEST CONCENTRATION OF CLIENTS IN THE URBAN CENTERS OF NORWICH AND NEW LONDON. IT IS CHARACTERIZED BY A HIGH RATE OF HEALTH DISPARITIES, SPECIFICALLY DEPRESSION, SUBSTANCE DISUSE DISORDERS, DIABETES, CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE, INFANT MORTALITY, ASTHMA, AND OBESITY. THERE ARE SIGNIFICANT POCKETS OF POVERTY AND LINGUISTIC ISOLATION WHICH ARE MAJOR BARRIERS TO ACCESSING CARE. NORWICH IS DESIGNATED AS A LOW-INCOME PRIMARY CARE AND DENTAL HPSA, A MEDICALLY UNDERSERVED POPULATION, AND THE ENTIRE REGION IS A MENTAL HEALTH SHORTAGE AREA. RECENT REPORTS HAVE INDICATED THAT UCFS’ SERVICE AREA CONTINUES TO SEE THE HIGHEST RATE OF ACCIDENTAL DRUG RELATED DEATHS IN THE STATE OF CT (58/100,000 IN NEW LONDON COUNTY) AS WELL AS HIGH RATES OF SUICIDE (12.05/100,000 IN WINDHAM COUNTY AND 10.81/100,000 IN NEW LONDON COUNTY). THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND WORKFORCE SHORTAGES IN SPECIALTY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH (BH) HAVE CRIPPLED ACCESS TO LIFE SAVING CARE. UCFS HAS OVER 400 PATIENTS ON BH SPECIALTY WAIT LIST WHO WILL BE SERVED BY THE INTEGRATED CARE MODEL THAT UCFS IS PROPOSING. RESPONSE: FOR OVER 30 YEARS, UCFS HAS BEEN A SIGNIFICANT PROVIDER OF BOTH CLINIC- AND COMMUNITY-BASED BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND RECOVERY SERVICES. IT IS READY TO EMBARK ON A NEW LEVEL OF ACCESS TO SCREENING, ASSESSMENT, INTERVENTION, AND TREATMENT FOR THOSE WITH MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS BY EMBRACING THE INTEGRATION OF BEHAVIORAL AND MENTAL HEALTH WITH PRIMARY CARE. DESPITE OUR BEST EFFORTS IN WORKFORCE ENHANCEMENT, THERE WILL NEVER BE ENOUGH “SPECIALTY” BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND RECOVERY SERVICES. ACKNOWLEDGING THIS, UCFS PROPOSES TO EXPAND INTEGRATION OF PRIMARY, BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER CARE, INCLUDING MEDICATION ASSISTED TREATMENT, WITHIN PRIMARY CARE VISITS. BY ADDING INTEGRATED CARE CLINICIANS, RECOVERY COACHES, AND COLLABORATION, UCFS WILL ADDRESS THE PHYSICAL, MENTAL, AND ADD ICTION HEALTH OF THE ENTIRE PERSON. WORKING IN TANDEM WITH THE MEDICAL PROVIDERS AND OFFERING SCREENINGS AND INTERVENTIONS WITHIN THE PRIMARY CARE SETTING, UCFS WILL ENHANCE ACCESS TO SERVICES SO THAT MORE PATIENTS WILL BE HELPED. THE NEED FOR ACCESS TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE SERVICES HAS NEVER BEEN GREATER. COLLABORATION: UCFS HAS A LONG HISTORY OF STRONG COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS AT THE STATE AND LOCAL LEVEL AND WILL CONTINUE TO COORDINATE WITH THOSE PARTNERS TO ELIMINATE DUPLICATION OF SERVICES AND STRENGTHEN THE LOCAL HEALTHCARE SYSTEM. EVALUATIVE MEASURES: UCFS WILL RELY ON OUR INTERNAL CAPACITY TO USE DATA TO INFORM DECISION MAKING. OVER THE PAST 5 YEARS, UCFS HAS ADOPTED A POPULATION HEALTH FRAMEWORK TO ENSURE ADHERENCE TO CLINICAL GUIDELINES, STANDARDS OF CARE, PATIENT SAFETY, PATIENT SATISFACTION, HEALTH EQUITY, AND HEALTH OUTCOMES. WE UTILIZE A ROBUST ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD, SHARED BY CT’S LARGEST HEALTH SYSTEMS TO COORDINATE CARE FOR OUR PATIENTS. RESOURCES: UCFS HAS A STRONG, STABLE, AND EXPERIENCED LEADERSHIP TEAM INCLUDING THE CEO/PD (12 YEARS), CMO (22 YEARS), AND COO (17 YEARS). UCFS HAS BUILT A SKILLED TEAM OF PROFESSIONALS COMMITTED TO INTEGRATED CARE AND INCREASING ACCESS TO MENTAL HEALTH AND RECOVERY SERVICES. OUR INTEGRATED CARE SUPERVISOR HAS SPENT 10 YEARS WORKING AS A LICENSED CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKER, WITH THE LAST 5 SPENT REFINING OUR MODEL OF PRIMARY CARE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH. GOVERNANCE: UCFS IS GOVERNED BY A 16-PERSON, WELL-INFORMED, CONSUMER DRIVEN BOARD TO ENSURE THAT UCFS IS VIABLE FOR THE FUTURE TO ACTUALIZE PATIENT-CENTERED CARE. OUR BOARD IS VERSED IN HRSA’S COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS AND UNDERSTANDS THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES AND AUTHORITIES. SUPPORT REQUESTED: UCFS IS READY TO BUILD ON OUR SUCCESS IN INTEGRATED CARE WITHIN THE PRIMARY CARE SETTING TO RESPOND TO THE OVERWHELMING NEED TO EXPAND MENTAL HEALTH AND RECOVERY TREATMENT IN OUR SERVICE AREA THROUGH THIS FUNDING OPPORTUNITY. UCFS REQUESTS $1.1 MILLION FOR 2 YEARS.

FY 2024 BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICE EXPANSION - SINCE 1983, UNITED COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER MARIA AUXILIADORA, INC. (UCHC) HAS BEEN COMMITTED TO THE DELIVERY OF QUALITY, ACCESSIBLE, AND COMPREHENSIVE PRIMARY HEALTHCARE TO ALL PATIENTS IN OUR COMMUNITIES REGARDLESS OF INSURANCE STATUS AND/OR ABILITY TO PAY. OUR CLINICS SERVE RURAL LOCATIONS IN SOUTHERN PIMA COUNTY AND SOUTHERN ARIZONA. UCHC’S DESIGNATED SERVICE AREA (DSA) SPANS 3,000 SQUARE MILES, WITH A POPULATION OF OVER 111,000 WITH JUST OVER 25,000 OF THE POPULATION CONSIDERED LOW INCOME PER THE GEONAVIGATOR MAPPING TOOL. IN OUR SMALLER OUTLYING COMMUNITIES, OUR CLINIC IS THE FIRST POINT OF ACCESS FOR POPULATIONS SEEKING HEALTH CARE, SO WE POSITIONED TO PROVIDE A CONTINUUM OF CARE INCLUDING PRIMARY CARE, DENTAL, PEDIATRIC, AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES. IN 2018, UCHC STARTED ITS BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROGRAM. SINCE THEN, WE HAVE EXPANDED TO 3.5 PSYCHIATRIC NURSE PRACTITIONERS AND A LICENSED CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKER AND PER OUR 2023 UDS REPORT, HAVE 840 MENTAL HEALTH PATIENTS AND OVER 4,000 VISITS ANNUALLY. PER OUR 2023 UDS REPORT, WE HAVE 242 PATIENTS WITH ALCOHOL RELATED DISORDERS; 222 WITH SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS; 691 WITH TOBACCO USE DISORDER; 2,235 WITH DEPRESSION AND OTHER MOOD DISORDERS; 2,922 WITH ANXIETY DISORDERS, INCLUDING PTSD; 640 WITH ATTENTION DEFICIT AND DISRUPTIVE BEHAVIOR DISORDERS; AND 2,016 WITH OTHER MENTAL CONDITIONS. WITH OUR CURRENT STAFFING CAPACITY, WE ARE UNABLE TO PROVIDE CARE OR TREATMENT THAT ADDRESSES ALL OUR PATIENT’S NEEDS, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO ALCOHOL AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER DIAGNOSES. PATIENTS ARE TOLD OF OTHER TREATMENT PROGRAMS BOTH IN AND OUTSIDE OF OUR SERVICE AREA. WE ARE WORKING ON FORMAL REFERRAL CONTRACTS TO INCLUDE OUR SELF-PAY AND SLIDING FEE PATIENTS IN THESE PROGRAMS SINCE FINANCIAL STRAIN CAN BE A BARRIER TO CARE. WE REALIZE TRANSPORTATION CAN BE BARRIER TO THOSE THAT NEED TO SEEK TREATMENT FURTHER FROM HOME. BY NOT BEING ABLE TO TREAT THESE PATIENTS IN OUR HEALTH CENTERS, WE LOSE THE O PPORTUNITY FOR COORDINATED INTEGRATIVE CARE. FOR THIS REASON, WE ARE APPLYING FOR THE BEHAVIOR HEALTH SERVICES EXPANSION GRANT TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF PATIENTS RECEIVING MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES AND TO BEGIN A PROGRAM TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF PATIENTS RECEIVING SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER (SUD) SERVICES INCLUDING TREATMENT, RECOVERY, AND SUPPORT AND WITH MEDICATIONS FOR OPIOID USE DISORDER (MOUD). THE RESULT WILL BE MORE PROVIDERS TRAINED IN THESE SERVICES WHICH WILL INCREASE ACCESS FOR OUR PATIENTS, REMOVE FINANCIAL AND TRANSPORTATION BARRIERS, AND PROVIDE COORDINATED AND INTEGRATED CARE WITHIN OUR CLINICS. WE WOULD BEGIN WITH TRAINING. WE NEED FUNDING TO TRAIN OUR PRIMARY CARE AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH STAFF IN THE BEST EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICES FOR TREATING SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS. SECONDLY, WE WOULD EXPAND OUR STAFF TO INCLUDE A CLINICAL OVERSIGHT POSITION, LICENSED CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKERS, AND COUNSELORS; BEHAVIORAL HEALTH TECHNICIANS, AND REFERRAL SOURCES IN PIMA COUNTY TO PROVIDE SEVERE MOUD SERVICES, SUCH AS THOSE REQUIRING INPATIENT CARE. WE WOULD HIRE A CASE MANAGER TO ADDRESS UNDERLYING PATIENT NEEDS FOR HOUSING, FOOD INSECURITY, FINANCIAL STRAIN, TRANSPORTATION, LANGUAGE BARRIERS AND DISCRIMINATION AND EXPAND TRANSPORTATION SERVICES BY ADDING ANOTHER VEHICLE AND DRIVER. WE ARE ONCE AGAIN A PATIENT CENTERED MEDICAL HOME (PCMH)! WE ARE MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE FIVE FUNCTIONS OF MEDICAL HOME THAT INCLUDE COMPREHENSIVE CARE, PATIENT CENTERED, COORDINATED CARE, ACCESSIBLE SERVICES, QUALITY AND SAFETY. WE ARE READY TO PROVIDE MORE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES USING THESE FOUNDATIONAL PRINCIPLES. WE WOULD MEASURE THIS PROGRAM THROUGH OUR QUALITY COMMITTEE AND THROUGH USE OF PLAN DO, STUDY ACT (PDSA’) INITIATIVES. WE WOULD UTILIZE DATA PROVIDED BY OUR HEALTH INFORMATION SYSTEMS DEPARTMENT. UCHC CURRENTLY USES E CLINICAL WORKS AND AZARA TO MEASURE OUR PROGRESS. AFTER 2 YEARS OF INITIAL FUNDING, WE WOULD SUSTAIN OUR PROGRAM THROUGH PROGRAM INCOME, LOCAL GRANTS AND HRSA GRANT FUNDING.

WHILE ASSESSMENTS ARE DONE EVERY 2-3 YEARS, RECENT ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES MADE THE NEED MORE PRESSING E.G., ESCALATED NUMBER OF INCIDENTS AT UCC SCHOOLS (& NATIONALLY), PANDEMIC & POLITICAL/SOCIAL UPHEAVAL IMPACTS. THE CAMPUS-WIDE ASSESSMENT WAS CONDUCTED BY AN INDEPENDENT SECURITY CONSULTANT. CONTRIBUTING TO THE PROCESS WAS KEY PROJECT PARTNER MILWAUKEE POLICE DEPARTMENT (MPD) DISTRICT TWO (ALONG WITH OTHER KEY STAKEHOLDERS). FINDINGS INDICATED THE CAMPUS IS STILL HIGHLY VULNERABLE TO A RACIALLY MOTIVATED VIOLENT EXTREMIST, ALONG WITH (1) DEFICIENCIES IN OPERATIONAL & FUNCTIONAL COMPONENTS OF CCTV SYSTEM. LACK OF TACTICAL VIEWS AT ENTRY WAYS, PINCH POINTS, & CRITICAL LOCATIONS NEAR FREEWAY, PLAYGROUND, HIGH TRAFFICKED AREAS. (2) NO COMMUNICATION SYSTEM FOR REAL-TIME ON-SITE INFORMATION SHARING CRITICAL TO ADVISE OCCUPANTS OF IMMINENT DANGER & RESPONSE INSTRUCTIONS. IN 2022-23, UCC SCHOOLS IMPLEMENTED THE I LOVE U GUYS FOUNDATIONS STANDARD RESPONSE PROTOCOL (SRP) DERIVED FROM RESEARCH-BASED BEST PRACTICE. STAFF RECEIVED ON-SITE TRAINING & STUDENTS/PARENTS HAVE ALSO BEEN TRAINED & ARE BEING DRILLED MONTHLY. TO DATE THIS YEAR, THERE HAVE BEEN 4 INCIDENTS ON OR ADJACENT TO UCC SCHOOLS INVOLVING THREAT/ACTUAL USE OF FIREARMS. THE SRP WAS SUCCESSFULLY UTILIZED FOR THESE INCIDENTS & POST-INCIDENT MPD DEBRIEFINGS WERE HELD. THIS REQUEST REFLECTS NEEDS IDENTIFIED AS MOST CRITICAL TO HARDENED PREVENTION & RESPONSE CAPABILITIES. IN CONJUNCTION WITH ITS STAKEHOLDERS, UCC WORKS TO ENSURE EFFORTS ARE CONSISTENT WITH SCHOOL MISSION, CULTURE, & GUIDING PRINCIPLES (E.G., ACCESSIBILITY, TRANSPARENCY). GOALS ARE THAT: 1) UCC SCHOOLS STUDENTS, PARENTS, FAMILIES, & STAFF WILL FEEL SAFE, VALUED, & EMPOWERED TO RESPOND CONFIDENTLY/COMPETENTLY TO A CAMPUS EMERGENCY. 2) POST-INCIDENT ANALYSIS (& FUTURE RISK ASSESSMENTS) WILL REPORT QUANTIFIABLE (& SUSTAINED) MITIGATION OF NEGATIVE CONSEQUENCES RELATED TO ATTEMPTED OR PERPETRATED BREACHES TO CAMPUS SECURITY. OBJECTIVES ARE THAT: UCC SCHOOLS WILL BE FULLY COMPLIANT WITH 2021 RISK ASSESSMENT RECOMMENDATIONS FACTORED INTO EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANNING & THIS REQUEST. ENHANCED CAMPUS SECURITY & TRAINING RESULT IN 75% OF STUDENTS, PARENTS, STAFF, & COMMUNITY STATING (VIA SURVEY) THEY FEEL CONFIDENT ABOUT THEIR SAFETY WHILE ON CAMPUS. 75% OF UCC SCHOOLS STUDENTS, STAFF, & PARENTS SURVEYED REPORT THEY EXPERIENCE INDICATORS OF A HEALTHY SCHOOL CLIMATE. CURRENT STATUS IS ONE OF INTEGRATING RECOMMENDED SAFETY PROCESSES & PHYSICAL PLANT IMPROVEMENTS. EXPANDED NOTIFICATION PROTOCOLS ARE IN PLACE & UCC IS SEEKING THIS & OTHER FUNDING TO MAKE PHYSICAL PLANT CHANGES/ADDITIONS TO OPTIMIZE SAFETY, VIOLENCE PREVENTION, & A CLIMATE WHERE ALL ARE EMPOWERED TO RESPOND COMPETENTLY TO THREATS. REFLECTING EXPERT RECOMMENDATION, UCC SCHOOLS WILL USE COPS/SVPP FUNDS TO PURCHASE & INSTALL SECURITY HARDENING EQUIPMENT: PANIC BUTTONS; DOOR LOCKS INCLUDING NEW LOCKS ON MIDDLE SCHOOL FRONT DOORS; UPGRADED, FULLY INTEGRATED PAGING SYSTEM; UPGRADED 2-WAY RADIOS; &, ADDITIONAL/UPGRADED SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS.
