FROM THE OUTSET, BERKSHIRE LEADERS WORKED CLOSELY WITH ORR TO DEVELOP ALL ASPECTS OF THE PROGRAM (ADMINISTRATIVE, PROGRAMMATIC, AND FINANCIAL) INCLUDING PREPARING FOR ADMISSION OF UC DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. AS A RESULT OF THE DILIGENCE OF ALL, THE PROGRAM BEGAN ADMITTING UC IN NOVEMBER 2020, OPERATING UNDER THE FIRST GRANT AWARD UNTIL OCTOBER 2022. DURING THAT TIME, SHELTERED HEARTS SERVED 922 UC, WORKING TO SECURE THEIR SAFE AND TIMELY RELEASE. ORR AWARDED BERKSHIRE A GRANT TO CONTINUE AND EXPAND SHELTERED HEARTS FOR THE 3-YEAR PERIOD BEGINNING NOVEMBER 1, 2022. SHELTERED HEARTS PROVIDES SAFE AND SECURE RESIDENTIAL PLACEMENT AND SERVICES FOR UC REFERRED THROUGH THE OFFICE OF REFUGEE RESETTLEMENT. THE PROGRAM SERVES YOUTH, 12-17, WHO HAVE NO LAWFUL IMMIGRATION STATUS AND NO PARENT OR LEGAL GUARDIAN AVAILABLE TO ASSUME THEIR CARE AND CUSTODY. MOST ARE FROM GUATEMALA AND HONDURAS, BUT THE PROGRAM IS EQUIPPED TO SHELTER ANY UC, REGARDLESS OF COUNTRY OF ORIGIN, AND HAS SERVED UC FROM 16 DIFFERENT COUNTRIES IN CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICA, EUROPE, AND AFRICA. THE LENGTH OF TIME YOUTH ARE IN THE PROGRAM IS DEPENDENT ON INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCES, AND THE AVERAGE IS 17 DAYS. THE GOALS OF SHELTERED HEARTS ARE TO PROVIDE SAFE AND SECURE SHELTER SERVICES FOR UC PLACED IN THE PROGRAM; FACILITATE THEIR SAFE AND TIMELY RELEASE TO FAMILY MEMBERS OR APPROPRIATE SPONSORS; AND PREVENT, DETECT, EDUCATE, AND RESPOND TO SEXUAL ABUSE, SEXUAL HARASSMENT, AND INAPPROPRIATE SEXUAL BEHAVIORS. SHELTERED HEARTS PROVIDES INTAKE AND ORIENTATION, ASSESSMENTS, INDIVIDUAL SERVICE PLANS, CASE MANAGEMENT, COUNSELING, MEDICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES ON-SITE AND IN THE COMMUNITY, RECREATION AND LEISURE ACTIVITIES, AND EDUCATIONAL SERVICES. OTHER SERVICES INCLUDE TRANSPORTATION FOR OFF-SITE APPOINTMENTS; VISITATION AND PHONE CALLS, INCLUDING UNRESTRICTED ACCESS TO ATTORNEYS; AND NUTRITIONAL SERVICES THAT ACCOMMODATE DIETARY RESTRICTIONS, ALLERGIES, CULTURAL AND RELIGIOUS REQUIREMENTS. YOUTH RESIDE IN COTTAGES THAT PROVIDE A "HOME-LIKE" ENVIRONMENT AND STAFF MONITOR THE PROGRAM AT ALL TIMES TO ENSURE SAFETY AND SECURITY FOR ALL. THE PROGRAM ALSO HAS A STRUCTURED EVALUATION PROCESS FOR CONTINUOUS PROGRAM IMPROVEMENT TO ENSURE THE PROGRAM OPERATES AT A HIGH LEVEL AT ALL TIMES. ALL SERVICES ARE TRAUMA-INFORMED, CULTURALLY AND LINGUISTICALLY SENSITIVE, AND RESPONSIVE TO THE DIVERSITY OF NEEDS OF ALL YOUTH. FOR INSTANCE, WITH THE INCREASE OF YOUTH FROM OTHER COUNTRIES, THE PROGRAM HAS ADDED TRANSLATION DEVICES THAT UC CARRY WITH THEY WHEN THEY SPEAK A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH OR SPANISH. THE PROGRAM COMPLIES WITH ALL FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS, INCLUDING THOSE OF ORR, ICE AND BERKSHIRE'S STATE LICENSING AGENCY, THE NEW YORK STATE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES. THE BED CAPACITY DURING THE ORIGINAL GRANT PERIOD WAS 50 BUT ORR INCREASED THIS CAPACITY TO 60 FOR THIS NEW GRANT PERIOD. THIS INCREASE WAS IN RESPONSE TO THE PROGRAM'S SUCCESS IN IMPLEMENTING SHELTERED HEARTS AND THE PROGRAM TEAM'S DESIRE TO SUPPORT MORE YOUTH. THE PROGRAM DIRECTOR AND LEADERSHIP TEAM OVERSEE ALL AREAS OF PROGRAM OPERATIONS AND WORK WITH ALL PROGRAM STAFF TO PROVIDE SERVICES AND SUPPORTS IN PURSUIT OF PROGRAM GOALS. STAFF MEMBERS ARE BILINGUAL IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH TO BE RESPONSIVE TO THE LINGUISTIC NEEDS OF THE MAJORITY OF OC. THE PROGRAM NARRATIVE DETAILS THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF SHELTERED HEARTS DURING THIS FIRST YEAR. WITH STRONG LEADERSHIP AND EXPERIENCED PROGRAM STAFF, THE PROGRAM IS ANTICIPATED TO CONTINUE TO EXCEL, WORKING WITH UC TOWARD THEIR SAFE AND TIMELY RELEASE.

BRAIN HEALTH TOGETHER: A LIVE-STREAMING GROUP-BASED DIGITAL PROGRAM - TOGETHER SENIOR HEALTH, INC. (TOGETHER) IS A WOMAN-OWNED SMALL BUSINESS THAT IS DEDICATED TO HELPING OLDER ADULTS WITH COGNITIVE DECLINE OR ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE AND RELATED DEMENTIAS (ADRD) MAINTAIN QUALITY OF LIFE AND INDEPENDENCE BY OFFERING INNOVATIVE, EVIDENCE-BASED, ONLINE, LIVESTREAM, GROUP PROGRAMS. OUR FIRST PRODUCT ON THE TOGETHER AUDIO/VIDEO PLATFORM IS MOVING TOGETHERTM—WHICH COMBINES MOVEMENTS TO SUPPORT DAILY FUNCTION WITH MINDFUL BODY AWARENESS EXERCISES AND SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT AND IS DESIGNED FOR PEOPLE WITH MILD ADRD AND THEIR CAREGIVERS WHO PARTICIPATE TOGETHER FROM HOME. THE PRIMARY GOAL OF THIS PHASE II SMALL BUSINESS INNOVATION RESEARCH (SBIR) GRANT IS TO EXPAND OUR PRODUCT LINE BY DEVELOPING AND TESTING A COMPREHENSIVE BRAIN HEALTH TOGETHER PROGRAM FOR PEOPLE LIVING WITH MILD COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT (MCI). THIS GOAL REPRESENTS A CRITICALLY IMPORTANT NEXT STEP FOR OUR COMPANY FROM BOTH PUBLIC HEALTH AND BUSINESS PERSPECTIVES. OLDER ADULTS WITH MCI REPRESENT A LARGE MARKET WITH IMPORTANT UNMET NEEDS: APPROXIMATELY 20% OF OLDER ADULTS (>2.7 MILLION AMERICANS) ARE CURRENTLY LIVING WITH MCI, WHICH PLACES THEM AT INCREASED RISK OF DEVELOPING ADRD. THERE ARE NO MEDICATIONS THAT CAN PREVENT DEVELOPMENT OF ADRD IN PEOPLE WITH MCI; HOWEVER, THERE IS GROWING EVIDENCE THAT BEHAVIORAL INTERVENTIONS TARGETING MODIFIABLE DEMENTIA RISK FACTORS—SUCH AS PHYSICAL INACTIVITY, SOCIAL ISOLATION, AND DEPRESSION—MAY HELP IMPROVE COGNITIVE FUNCTION AND COULD POTENTIALLY DELAY DEMENTIA ONSET. OUR PRELIMINARY RESULTS SUGGEST THAT OUR PRODUCT, MOVING TOGETHER IS ASSOCIATED WITH SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENTS IN COGNITIVE FUNCTION, PHYSICAL FUNCTION, SOCIAL ISOLATION, AND SELF-REGULATION AS WELL AS INCREASED DEFAULT MODE NETWORK CONNECTIVITY ON PRE/POST RESTING STATE FUNCTIONAL MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING (RS-FMRI) SCANS IN PEOPLE WITH MCI. WE BELIEVE THAT THESE BENEFITS WOULD BE EVEN GREATER IF MOVING TOGETHER WERE COMBINED WITH A COMPREHENSIVE BRAIN HEALTH COACHING PROGRAM. THEREFORE, OUR SPECIFIC AIMS ARE TO: 1) WORK WITH OUR SCIENTIFIC ADVISORY BOARD AND USE HUMANCENTERED DESIGN TO DEVELOP EVIDENCE-BASED CONTENT FOR BRAIN HEALTH TOGETHER, A 12-WEEK, GROUP-BASED, LIVESTREAMING, DIGITAL PROGRAM THAT WILL COMBINE MOVING TOGETHER WITH BRAIN HEALTH COACHING TO ADDRESS MODIFIABLE DEMENTIA RISK FACTORS IN PEOPLE WITH MCI; 2) PERFORM A RANDOMIZED, CONTROLLED TRIAL TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE BRAIN HEALTH TOGETHER PROGRAM IMPROVES COGNITIVE FUNCTION IN PEOPLE WITH MCI OVER 12 WEEKS COMPARED TO A SUCCESSFUL AGING COMPARISON GROUP; AND 3) DETERMINE WHETHER WEEKLY MAINTENANCE CLASSES HELP TO SUSTAIN THE EFFECTS OF THE BRAIN HEALTH TOGETHER PROGRAM OVER 12 WEEKS AFTER THE INTERVENTION. IF WE CAN DEMONSTRATE THAT BRAIN HEALTH TOGETHER HAS IMMEDIATE AND SUSTAINED COGNITIVE BENEFITS IN PEOPLE WITH MCI, IT WILL POSITION TOGETHER AS A NATIONAL LEADER IN EVIDENCE-BASED PROGRAMS TO IMPROVE QUALITY OF LIFE AND PREVENT DECLINE IN OLDER ADULTS WITH COGNITIVE IMPAIRMENT.

A NOVEL ALGORITHM TO IDENTIFY PEOPLE WITH UNDIAGNOSED ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE AND RELATED DEMENTIAS - MORE THAN HALF OF THE 6.5 MILLION AMERICANS LIVING WITH ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE AND RELATED DEMENTIAS (ADRD) DO NOT HAVE A DIAGNOSIS, WHICH CAN LEAD TO POOR QUALITY CARE FOR THESE PATIENTS AND INADEQUATE REIMBURSEMENT FOR COSTS OF CARE FOR HEALTH PLANS. THIS SMALL BUSINESS INNOVATION RESEARCH (SBIR) DIRECT PHASE II GRANT WILL ENABLE US TO TEST, REFINE, AND BRING TO MARKET A UNIQUE ALGORITHM THAT WILL USE ELECTRONIC HEALTH DATA TO SUPPORT EARLIER IDENTIFICATION OF PEOPLE LIVING WITH UNDIAGNOSED ADRD.

COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKER TRAINING PROGRAM - BETTER HEALTH TOGETHER (BHT), IN PARTNERSHIP WITH EASTERN WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY (EWU), COMMUNITY COLLEGES OF SPOKANE, AND THE WASHINGTON STATE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH (WA DOH), IS REQUESTING $3,000,000 IN FUNDING OVER THE THREE-YEAR PERFORMANCE PERIOD. THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROGRAM IS TO EXPAND THE PUBLIC HEALTH WORKFORCE THROUGH THE TRAINING OF NEW COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKERS (CHWS) AND HEALTH SUPPORT WORKERS AND TO EXTEND THEIR KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS. BHT HAS THE RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE DELIVERY PARTNERS THAT PROVIDE THE CHW TRAINING AS WELL AS THE ABILITY TO PULL UPON OUR NETWORK ORGANIZATIONS NEEDED TO DO THIS WORK. THIS INCLUDES THE PROPOSAL PARTNERS LISTED AS WELL AS ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE LED BY AND WORK EFFECTIVELY WITH UNDER-RESOURCED POPULATIONS. WE WILL ENGAGE WITH THESE PARTNERS FOR RECRUITMENT, EXPERIENTIAL TRAINING, ON-THE-JOB TRAINING, APPRENTICESHIP, FIELD PLACEMENT, AND EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES. PARTICIPATING PARTNERS INCLUDE LATINOS EN SPOKANE, AMERICAN INDIAN COMMUNITY CENTER, LAKE ROOSEVELT COMMUNITY HEALTH, PICA, RURAL RESOURCES, SPOKANE PUBLIC SCHOOLS, COLUMBIA BASE HEALTH ASSOCIATION, AND THE CARL MAXEY CENTER. OUR PROGRAM WILL REACH POPULATIONS IN OUR REGION WITH THE HIGHEST RISK FOR HEALTH DISPARITIES AND LOW HEALTH LITERACY IN ADAMS AND FERRY COUNTIES, AND SPOKANE RESIDENTS LIVING IN WEST CENTRAL, NORTH CENTRAL, CENTRAL, AND EAST CENTRAL NEIGHBORHOODS. WITHIN THESE GEOGRAPHIC LOCATIONS, BHT WILL FOCUS ON POPULATIONS AT THE HIGHEST RISK FOR HEALTH DISPARITIES AND LOW HEALTH LITERACY; NAMELY BLACK, MARSHALLESE, LATINX, AMERICAN INDIAN (BOTH URBAN AND RURAL), AND LGBTQA2S+. WE WILL ACHIEVE THIS BY: SUPPORTING BIPOC AND OTHER IMPACTED COMMUNITIES BY ESTABLISHING A STRONG RECRUITMENT AND PLACEMENT NETWORK WITH A FOCUS ON BELONGING. ADVANCING A WHOLE-PERSON CARE PERSPECTIVE BY ADDRESSING AND REDUCING THE PARTICIPANTS’ SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH BARRIERS AND NEEDS AS PART OF PROGRAM PARTICIPATION. OPTIMIZING THE USE OF RESOURCES AND INCREASING ACCESS TO CARE BY FINANCIALLY SUPPORTING THE CREATION OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR CHWS IN NEW SETTINGS. EXPANDING EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES AND ACCESS TO CARE BY CREATING PATHWAYS AND ACCESS TO ADDITIONAL HEALTH SERVICES TRAINING AND CAREER TRAJECTORIES. WE WILL UTILIZE THE FOLLOWING APPROACHES TO ACHIEVE SUCCESS: APPROACH 1: CONVENE A PROGRAM STEERING COMMITTEE. BHT WILL ENGAGE A GROUP OF HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATIONS, COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS, AND CHWS TO FORM A STEERING COMMITTEE. THE COMMITTEE WILL HELP BHT TO GUIDE THIS WORK AND ENSURE THE PROJECT IS ACCOUNTABLE TO IMPACTED COMMUNITIES AND EFFECTIVE IN FILLING PROGRAM NEEDS AND GAPS. APPROACH 2: DEVELOP A COMMUNITY-DRIVEN HUB & SPOKE MODEL. BHT WILL ADOPT A COMMUNITY-DRIVEN “HUB AND SPOKE” MODEL TO PROVIDE RESOURCES, TRAINING, TA, COACHING, MENTORSHIP, PEER ADVOCACY, AND SUPPORT BY TRUSTED ORGANIZATIONS AND LEADERS WHO ARE TRUSTED ADVOCATES. APPROACH 3: INCLUDE AN OUTREACH SPECIALIST ROLE ON THE PROGRAM TEAM. THIS ROLE WILL BE DEDICATED SPECIFICALLY TO MEETING THE OBJECTIVES, EXPECTATIONS, AND PERFORMANCE MEASURES INCLUDING RECRUITING CULTURALLY SPECIFIC CHWS. THIS ROLE WILL BE CRITICAL IN ENSURING THAT WE MEET OUR RECRUITMENT GOALS FOR OUR TARGET TRAINEE POPULATION. APPROACH 4: FOSTER A COMMUNITY OF BELONGING. AN APPROACH TO INCREASE EQUITY AND RETENTION FOR OUR PROGRAM WILL BE TO FOSTER A SENSE OF BELONGING AND COMMUNITY AMONG PARTICIPATING CHWS. WE WILL USE THE EASTERN WASHINGTON COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKER NETWORK AS A LAUNCHING POINT TO BUILD OUR COMMUNITY OF BELONGING TO PROVIDE A SPACE WHERE THEY CAN BUILD CONNECTIONS AND LEARN FROM ONE ANOTHER. APPROACH 5: PROVIDE A VARIETY OF OPTIONS AND FLEXIBILITY. BHT WILL UTILIZE A WHOLE-PERSON PERSPECTIVE AS WE DEVELOP OUR PROGRAM OFFERINGS. AS SUCH, WE WILL STRIVE TO INTRODUCE VARIETY AND FLEXIBILITY INTO THE OPTIONS WE OFFER OUR TRAINEES FOR ENGAGEMENT, MONETARY SUPPORT, WRAP-AROUND SERVICES, EXPERIENTIAL TRAINING SITES, AND UPSKI

DUFB NEVADA COMMUNITY EXPANSION PROJECT WILL TAKE PLACE IN 9 LOCATIONS IN CLARK COUNTY IN SOUTHERN NEVADA, 6 LOCATIONS IN WASHOE COUNTY AND 1 LOCATION IN LYON COUNTY IN NORTHERN NEVADA. CLARK COUNTY, WHICH IS COMPRISED LARGELY OF THE LAS VEGAS VALLEY, MAKES UP OVER 70% OF THE STATE'S POPULATION, NORTHERN NEVADA MAKES UP 25% WHILE MOAPA VALLEY IS A SPARSELY POPULATED RURAL TOWN. ONE IN SIX SOUTHERN NEVADANS, OR MORE THAN 305,000 PEOPLE, STRUGGLE WITH HUNGER. DURING THE 2017-2019 SCHOOL YEAR, MORE THAN 68% OF THE STUDENTS ATTENDING CLARK COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT, THE FIFTH LARGEST SCHOOL DISTRICT IN THE COUNTRY, WERE ENROLLED IN FREE OR REDUCED-PRICE MEAL PROGRAMS AND 59% OF STUDENTS WERE ENROLLED IN NORTHERN NEVADA. OVER 175,000 PEOPLE WITHIN THESE TWO COUNTIES DO NOT HAVE SUPERMARKETS WITHIN 2 MILES OF THEIR RESIDENCE, THE CRITERIA FOR LIVING IN A FOOD DESERT. THE NUMBER OF FAMILIES IN CLARK COUNTY THAT RELY ON SNAP BENEFITS HAS INCREASED DRAMATICALLY OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS. CLARK COUNTY COMMUNITIES HAVE BEEN NEGATIVELY IMPACTED BY THE NATIONAL ECONOMIC RECESSION. ACCORDING TO LOCAL DATA, NEARLY 50% OF SNAP PARTICIPANTS ARE CHILDREN 18 YEARS OF AGE AND YOUNGER, AND 12% ARE SENIORS, BOTH POTENTIALLY VULNERABLE POPULATIONS RELATIVE TO ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOOD. THE MEDIAN INCOME RANGE IS $19,000 PER YEAR AND THE AVERAGE SNAP BENEFIT IN NEVADA IN 2019 FOR A FOOD-INSECURE FAMILY WAS $253 PER MONTH, WHICH IS NOT ENOUGH TO ADEQUATELY FEED A FAMILY NUTRITIOUS MEALS. ONE OF THE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY THE PROJECT IS ACCESS TO FRUITS AND VEGETABLES. THOSE LIVING IN A FOOD DESERT OFTEN HAVE INADEQUATE OPTIONS TO OBTAIN FRUITS AND VEGETABLES, AND CONSEQUENTLY MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY MEETING THE DIETARY GUIDELINES. THIS INCLUDES RECOMMENDATIONS FOR AN INCREASE IN TOTAL VEGETABLE INTAKE FROM ALL VEGETABLE SUBGROUPS, IN NUTRIENT-DENSE FORMS, AND AN INCREASE IN THE VARIETY OF DIFFERENT FRUITS AND VEGETABLES CONSUMED OVER TIME. BECAUSE SOUTHERN NEVADA IS A DESERT AND NOT KNOWN AS AN AGRICULTURAL OASIS, MANY OF OUR RESIDENTS ARE NOT AWARE OF FARMERS MARKETS AVAILABLE TO OFFER FRESH, LOCALLY OR REGIONALLY PRODUCED PRODUCE. MANY SNAP PARTICIPANTS ARE UNAWARE THAT THEY CAN REDEEM THEIR SNAP BENEFITS AT A LOCAL FARMER'S MARKET AND THERE IS A FALSE PERCEPTION THAT THE FARMERS' MARKETS CATER ONLY TO THE AFFLUENT AND THAT THE COST OF PRODUCE AT THE FARMERS' MARKETS IS HIGHER THAN THAT OF PRODUCE PURCHASED FROM A LOCAL GROCERY STORE. A SOUTHERN NEVADA HEALTH DEPARTMENT COMMUNITY FOOD ASSESSMENT WAS CONDUCTED AND COMPARED THE COST OF PRODUCE FROM VENDORS AT A LOCAL FARMERS MARKET TO THE COST OF PRODUCE IN SEVERAL LOCAL GROCERY STORES AND FOUND THAT THE COST OF PRODUCE AT THE FARMERS MARKETS WAS COMPARABLE TO OR, IN MANY CASES, LESS THAN AT A LOCAL GROCERY STORE. IN THE FARMERS' MARKETS THAT ARE CURRENTLY OFFERING EBT, SNAP-REDEMPTION RATES, WHILE SHOWING SLIGHT INCREASES IN THE PAST TWO YEARS, ARE NOT BEING MAXIMIZED LARGELY IN PART DUE TO LACK OF PROMOTION AND AWARENESS OF THE AVAILABILITY OF THE SERVICE. THE PROXIMITY OF MANY MARKETS TO LOW-INCOME AREAS AND RECOGNIZED FOOD DESERTS IN CLARK COUNTY MAKE THEM CONVENIENT AND ACCESSIBLE LOCATIONS FOR LOW-INCOME AND SNAP-PARTICIPANTS TO USE THEIR BENEFITS TO PURCHASE AFFORDABLE, HEALTHY AND REGIONALLY GROWN PRODUCE AND OTHER AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS.
