Healthy for Life - Health Issues Are identified and treated early and our health agenda provides support for education and early childhood. United Way works to ensure that people in Dane County have access to preventive and early care for health, behavioral health, and dental issues. Our work with youth includes the early identification and treatment of behavioral and mental health issues that keep kids from learning--it is critical to keeping them connected to school, families and the community and on-track for graduating. During the 2010/2011 school year, 2,500 sixth graders were screened for behavioral health issues, 70 of those required and received intervention. In 2010, 520 students participated in 211 behavioral health groups offered in 34 schools and several off-site locations in 7 Dane County school districts. Our work with early childhood insures that healthcare providers and nonprofits use a common screening tool to ensure children are developing normally so they will be ready for academic success in kindergarten. Connecting people with "health care homes" and dental homes provides a regular source of care that focuses on preventive care, managing chronic illnesses and reducing the need for hospitalizations or emergency visits. For example, 352 children and 218 pregnant women received preventive dental care, 461 children received a well child exam prior to entrance into kindergarten and 710 diabetics improved the management of their disease.

Self-Reliance and Independence - Support for seniors and people with disabilities helping them live with independence. Adverse drug events and falls are identified as two acute yet preventable conditions that precipitate the functional decline of older adults, and thus cause them to be sent to institutional care, or place a heavier burden of care on their caregivers. In 2010, 6,200 seniors, 3,000 people with disabilities, and 2,000 caregivers received needed support such as home-delivered meals, case management, home chores, and caregiver respite, to keep their independence. And, with the work of the Delegation on Safe and Healthy Aging, we determined a more focused goal with these populations to reduce the rate of hospitalizations and Emergency Room visits caused by adverse drug events and falls by 15% by 2015. In 2009, 1,579 emergency department visits and 2,698 hospitalizations occurred as a result of adverse drug events and falls among older adults aged 65 and over in Dane County. Key strategies include the identification and assessment of the risk, improving connections among health providers and the human service systems providing access to available resources, and educating the community. Key results thus far include: developing an assessment and intervention protocol with pharmacies and social service providers, creating a geriatric tool kit for health care providers, social service providers, and caregivers to raise their awareness of the issues and potential problems, and working on the community-wide public awareness campaign. In 2010, 1792 caregivers received help, training, or respite to care for their loved ones, 8010 seniors received a variety of services that to help them remain independent, including meals, transportation, financial counseling, and services to improve cognitive skills and reduce isolation. 3,456 people with disabilities received services to retain their independence including social-educational activities, volunteer mentors, day programming, and companionship, and 46 were assisted by trained service dogs.

Basic Needs-Homelessness - Our goal is to reduce family homelessness in Dane County by expanding eviction prevention strategies and providing direct access to stable housing for families facing homelessness. We will reduce our reliance on shelter as the first line of defense for these families. The strategies we invest in are landlord and tenant connections and financial counseling, quality case management, access to surplus food, and direct access to permanent housing through Housing First. By 2015, we will reduce the number of Dane County school-age children in shelter from 109 to 54 by 2015. We are on track to achieve that number. In 2010, there were 87 school age children from Dane County in Shelters. There was a total of1055 children in the shelter system in 2010, an 18.5% reduction from 2009. In 2010 6.7 Million pounds of food was distributed to 132,000 households, a 50% increase from 2006. In 2010, 3180 households were provided with financial literacy skills, 1960 families received case management and 131 Families were housed in Housing First Programs, with over 300 family members, eliminating their time in shelter and improving potential for school success.

Growing Up Getting Ready - We have two overarching goals for our children and youth. First, we're assuring all young children in Dane County are cared for and have fun as they become prepared for school. Our goals and strategies: 1. By 2013, 75% of our children will be ready for kindergarten. Strategies include home visitation and Play & Learns to teach parents how to be their children's first teacher. Early development screening of children at 18 months, 36 months, and 60 months through programs and health care through Dane County assures the early detection of potential developmental delays. In 2010, 2200 children and 2800 caregivers attended 11 Play & Learns; the Ages and Stages screener was administered to 1700 children. Of those screened, 20% were identified with potential delays and referred for treatment. Secondly, we're insuring that all students succeed academically and graduate from high school, regardless of race. Our goal: we will reduce the racial achievement gap at 4th grade reading, improve the passage of algebra in high school, and improve high school graduation rate to 95% in Dane County. Strategies include tutoring at all levels, keeping youth engaged in middle and high school, parent engagement and support, early identification of behavioral health issues, and drop-out recovery. Our tutoring initiative engaged over 1,000 volunteers in 4 school districts, tutoring 6000+ students K-12. In 2010 6% of 4th graders scored minimal on state tests, the percent of students completing algebra increased to 70%, and all Dane County schools except one graduated at least 93.5% of their high school students-on track to our goal of 95% by 2012.

Safe Community Strong Neighborhoods - We are reducing violence toward individuals and families; we have three main focus areas. 1) Our Journey Home initiative links ex-offenders who are returning to the community to the four research-based strategies; Residency, Employment, Support and Treatment so they can successfully reintegrate back into the community. We've reduced the return-to-prison rate for Dane County from 66% to 21% in four years-long term goal is 10% by 2015 to keep our community safer. Since 2006 we have interviewed and provided services for 3,066 individuals. We have worked with 821 individuals to provide more intensive services with 62 of those individuals return to prison giving us a return to prison rate of 7.5% since 2006. Also 1,488 have attended the service fairs with 430 services providers, 142 have found permanent or temporary residency, 262 have found employment, 342 have received support and treatment and an additional 2,007 bus tokens have been given out to facilitate transportation. 2) Achievement Connections is the initiative that works to keep our youth in school and on track to graduate from high school. Our goal for Achievement Connections is to increase the Dane County graduation rate to 95% by 2015, reducing the non-graduation rate by 50%. To achieve this goal, our strategies are: 1) Increase student engagement in the classroom, after school and in the community. 2) Increase parents' engagement and social support 3) Increase the identification and treatment of behavioral health issues. 4) Drop-out recovery. High school graduation rates in Middleton/Cross Plains and Oregon are increasing thanks to these strategies. In 2005 Dane County's graduation rate was 90%--it's now 94.5% and we are on track to achieve our goal of 95% by 2012. We've reduced habitual truancy by 20%, drop out rates by 21.4%, and have engaged 1700+ parents. . 3) We also are keeping the community safer by helping people get the life skills, communication skills, basic and industry specific job skills they need to find and maintain employment. We invest in programs focused on personal safety including domestic abuse, fire and disaster safety.

Agency and Volunteer Development - We're mobilizing strong nonprofits and increased volunteerism to create measurable results. Our goal is to increase the number of annual volunteer service hours in Dane County to 17 million by 2015. Key strategies include aligning volunteers with opportunities that support the Agenda for Change, leveraging volunteers'' intellectual capacity as well as their physical capacity, mobilizing diverse groups of volunteers, increasing opportunities for corporate volunteers, and developing youth leadership opportunities through volunteering. In 2010 we exceeded our goal with 17.6 million hours of volunteer service in Dane County. We provide training and developmental opportunities to volunteers, volunteer managers, and non profit boards.
