3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Introduction In 2003, the previous Monroe County Maternal Child Health Report Card was published as part of the community health improvement effort known as HEALTH ACTION: Priorities for Monroe County. This new report updates the data from the 2003 Report Card and documents progress in addressing priorities identified in The goal of HEALTH ACTION is to involve individuals, healthcare systems, businesses and the public health community in a process to improve the health of Monroe County citizens. The HEALTH ACTION process is depicted in the graphic to the right. Maternal Child Health Priorities for Action After the release of the 2003 Report Card, the Monroe County Board of Health sought community input to establish priorities for action among the eight health goals contained in the report. Improve Birth Outcomes and Infant Health Improve Access to Preventive Health Services Minimize the Impact of Asthma Improve Nutrition and Increase Physical Activity Reduce Exposure to Lead Reduce Unintentional Injuries Improve Social and Emotional Well Being Reduce Child Abuse, Neglect and Violence Against Children The following goals were selected as priorities for action: Increase Physical Activity and Improve Nutrition Improve Social and Emotional Well Being and Reduce Child Abuse/Neglect and Violence Against Children A summary of community interventions and activities to address the two priority goals can be found on the following pages. I
4 Increase Physical Activity and Improve Nutrition In 2006, the Greater Rochester Health Foundation (GRHF) convened The Childhood Obesity Task Force to develop a strategy to reduce the prevalence of obesity among children in Monroe County from 15% to 5% by The full strategic plan and two-year program report can be viewed at the GRHF website. 1 The four major strategies and interventions are summarized below. Strategy 1: Increase Physical Activity and Improve Nutrition. The Greater Rochester Health Foundation is funding programs in child-care settings, schools and community based organizations. Action for a Better Community Head Start Program, three YMCA urban child-care centers, and the Rochester Healthy Child Care 2010 Program all received funding to increase physical activity and improve nutrition in child-care settings. Honeyoe Falls- Lima, Penfield and Webster School Districts received multi-year grants to implement obesity prevention projects in select elementary schools. In 2010, three City elementary schools were awarded multi-year grants to implement programs focused on increasing physical activity opportunities throughout the school day. Between 2008 and 2010, 178 mini-grants were awarded to various organizations including faith groups, after school programs, childcare centers, recreation centers, youth sports leagues, and schools to increase opportunities for children to be physically active and eat healthy foods Strategy 2: Engage the Clinical Community. The Greater Rochester Clinical Initiative for Childhood Obesity of the Golisano Children s Hospital at the University of Rochester Medical Center- Department of Pediatrics developed and implemented a clinical quality improvement program. The goal of the program is to train physicians to improve their tracking of BMI and provide appropriate physical activity and nutrition guidance to parents. As of the Spring of 2010, practices that provide care to more than half of the children and adolescents in Monroe County are participating in the initiative. Strategy 3: Advance Policy and Practice Solutions. Healthy Eating and Active Living Through Policy and Practice Initiatives for Kids (Healthi KIDS) 2 led by the Finger Lakes Health System Agency, in partnership with the University of Rochester s Center for Community Health and the Children s Agenda, is advocating for public policy and practice changes to increase physical activity and improve nutrition among children in Monroe County. The specific focus areas for policy changes are: Better school food Safer play areas Food standards at childhood centers At least 45 minutes of in-school physical activity Policies that support breastfeeding Healthi KIDS successfully advocated for a change in food service vendors in the Rochester City School District and for an additional $2M allocation for food service improvements. In 2010, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation awarded a grant to Healthi KIDS to increase access to safe places to play and to establish healthier food standards in child-care and after-school settings. 1 Strategic Plan- Two Year Report II
5 Strategy 4: Execute a Community Communications Campaign , Be A Healthy Hero 3 is a research-based community-wide communications campaign targeted towards parents. The campaign advertises on radio, television, billboards, print messages in newspapers, and magazines, and utilizes a website and social media. Phase I of the campaign focused on increasing awareness of the problem of childhood obesity and providing simple messages about what can be done to prevent it. The messages are: eat 5 servings of fruits and vegetables daily limit screen time to 2 hours or less per day get 1 hour or more of physical activity per day limit sugar sweetened drinks to 0 Phase II of the campaign will focus on action-oriented messages in specific areas of the community in which children are most at risk for overweight and obesity. Evaluation of the Campaign has shown that most parents recognize the messages. However, parents have not yet implemented these messages in the home. GRHF has enlisted an external evaluation team to review the current efforts in the community and the findings will inform further activities. Additional Strategy- Parent Engagement In 2010, GRHF funded the University of Rochester s Center for Community Health (CCH) to administer a parent engagement project. CCH has developed a series of adult and family interactive workshops to provide parents with simple ideas to help their families eat well and move more. Community organizations are recruiting participants and hosting the workshops. Improve Social and Emotional Well Being and Reduce Child Abuse and Neglect The 2010 Community Action Plan for Greater Rochester s Children In 2009, The Children s Agenda published The 2010 Community Action Plan for Greater Rochester s Children 4 This plan proposed the following recommendations for evidence-based interventions or Best Solutions to improve the well-being of children: Expand the Nurse Family Partnership Program to meet the local community need of 1,000 families per year; Increase the number of children in quality child care and early learning settings by 20% by 2015; Provide high- quality, effective after school programming for 25% of Rochester children by 2015; Expand the Coping Power Program to full capacity in the Rochester City School District by The Center for Governmental Research, in partnership with The Children s Agenda, published a report that quantifies the number of children currently receiving these evidence based interventions, and the funding needed to achieve the recommendations outlined above. 5 On the following page is a summary of these interventions and the estimated number of children that are receiving them III
6 Nurse Family Partnership is a nurse home visitation program for low-income first-time moms. Women enroll in the program early in their pregnancy, and continue in the program until their child turns two years old. NFP home visitors work with their clients to achieve three important goals: Improve pregnancy outcomes by helping women engage in good preventive health practices. Improve child health and development by helping to improve parenting skills. Improve the economic self-sufficiency of the family by helping parents develop a vision for their own future, continue their education and find employment. The Nurse Family Partnership (NFP), 6 implemented locally in 2006 by the Monroe County Department of Public Health has funding to serve 275 Monroe County women. Quality Child Care and Early Learning Settings Research has shown that high quality early education has an impact on school readiness and social and emotional well-being. Children who participate in quality early childhood education as they grow older have lower rates of teen pregnancy and crime. 7, 8, 9 Children from families with limited incomes show the most benefit from participating in high quality early care and education programs. The Center for Governmental Research (CGR) and The Children s Agenda defined the target population of children in need of care as children ages birth to five, who live in a family with an income below 165% of the poverty level and do not have a stay-at-home parent. Based on this definition, there are an estimated 9,000 Monroe County children in need of quality child-care and early learning settings, and only 40% (about 3,600) are receiving it. High Quality, Effective After-School Programming Research has shown that children and youth who participate in quality after-school programs reap many benefits including improved academic performance, social and emotional well being, and health. 10 CGR estimates that there are 23,333 Rochester children and youth between the ages of 6 and 17 that live in working families and therefore are in need of after-school programming. Only an estimated 11% (2,505) of these children and youth are attending after-school programming with at least minimal quality standards. Coping Power Program. The Coping Power Program housed at the Children s Institute, is an evidence based-program that reduces violent and aggressive behavior in youth in 4 th and 5 th grades. The Center for Governmental Research estimates that there are approximately th and 5 th grade RCSD students in need of the Coping Power Program. During the school year, Coping Power will be at three Rochester City Schools, and the Children s Institute anticipates serving 120 students Schweinhart, Lawrence, Helen V. Barnes, and David P.

This estimate was produced by calculating the number of children greater than or equal to age one and less than age three who were screened in 2009 as a proportion of the number of births in the previous two years. The number of births was used as a proxy for the population of one and two year old children because current population figures for these zip code areas are not available. The number of births may be higher than the actual population because there may be migration from the city to the suburbs. 28 Vital records files, MCDPH 29 SPARCS, NYSDOH VII
