BRIEF SUMMARY: In an effort to encourage recycling, the department of Environmental Management has provided for the recycling of cardboard at no charge to the generator. This arrangement was possible through the use of inmate labor to process cardboard at a cost of $1.00 per inmate per day. Recently; the Department of Corrections has found it necessary to remove the inmate labor force from the recycling section. Temporary help will be used to replace inmate labor. Consequently, the Department of Environmental Management will have to employ contracted temporary labor to process the cardboard at a cost of $15 per ton. The cost will need to be passed on to the generators of the cardboard. RECOMMENDED.MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Staff recommends an increase in the tipping fee for corrugated cardboard from $0 per ton to $15 per ton.

After more than-a decade of steady progress, the goal of our project is unchanged: to help young people become informed, involved citizens at the local level. Accampli~h~ents In 1991, our association asked for your help to address the lack of accurate. information about local government in the resources typically available to teachers. V~Ie appealed to every county and municipality in the state to contribute five cents per capita to this effort, to supplement the initial funding by our organization, the Association of County Commissioners, and the League of lYlunicpalities. When nearly $282,000 poured in from all corners of the state, we were appreciative of your trust and determined to use the funds to make a,lasting difference-in how civics is taught. ~1e believe we have been responsible stewards of your money, stretching those funds over ten years to.produce:• ~ • ~ Local Governrr~erat ira North Carolina, a textbook and aecornpanying teacher's guide, : ~ : . distributed free of charge to every 9th grade public classroom and now available for viewing and printing on-line; Local Government in North Carolina /Lesson Plans, a folder of sixteen lesson plans for third- or fourth-grade students, distributed free of charge to every public elementary school; ~ "Local Government Resources," a newsletter for civics teachers mailed out each fall outlining the free local government materials available; ~ A web site (ncmanagers.org/teachers) featuring high school-level lesson plans, names and contact information for county and municipal officials, and interviews with local government staff members; ® "Back to the Classroom," a folder of tips and activities for use by local government stai:f and elected officials in planning_tlieir classroom visits; ® A tw~,~day{~S ~rn~nar~fo.,r~teacheas, slated for July 2001, demonstrating ways to engage students in hands-on local .government activities; ~ .~::•~u ® "Promoting the~Trady~t~on,of Civic Participation," a brief presentation for delivery to community clubs and organizations on how their members can help to promote civic 1 ~ e~ ,involvement. A complimentary copy of this presentation is enclosea'. G ® ~. . . . ,~ ~ ~......,.~.:_.a.~..,--- - ~ a, o ~.. " >" Ccantinuia~g necessity of the Civic Educati®n Pr®ject With each of these efforts, our group has attempted to~fill a genuine need expressed by teachers or local government officials: Over the past decade, teachers have developed confidence in our materials. We want to ensure that teachers at all grade levels continue to have available accurate information on North Carolina's local governments, but this requires our active involvement and attention to the teachers' requirements. q'here is an ongoing need to monitor the proposed changes in the State's K-12 social studies curriculum, inform new teachers about our materials, respond to requests for textbooks and lesson, plans, and share ideas for classroom activities on local government topics through the newsletter and the .upcoming local government seminar. With new people moving into our communities every day, many having little or no familiarity with the functions of local government in North Carolina, it's more critical than ever that we promote an understanding of county and municipal functions and .local issues. Partnc~-slnip ~'n~- the future NCCCIViA was proud to serve as a founding partner in the NC Civic Education Consortium when it was forrne~ within the Institute of CJOVernment in 1997. We welcomed the chance to coordinate our efforts with those of other groups and individuals across the state working to foster civic involvement by young - people, and 'we continue to serve. as a lead partner through the involvement of our Civic Education Committee acid part-tune coordinator. We are curP•en"tly working with the leadership of the Consortium to seek long-term State or foundation funding for our joint efforts, but-in the meantime-our original project. ' , funding is about to .expire: _ As managers ourselves, we recognize that the State's. revenue shortfall has created. budget difficulties for local governrnents'forthc rest of this fiscal year and possibly for next year as -well. Yet the purpose of the Civic Education Project is so vital, and the amounts requested of each jurisdiction so small, that 4ve have ,chosen to proceed with. this appeal for afive-year comm.itrnent by counties and municipalities to the civic Education Project. The'aa~ounts requested are based on population categoriesand are relatively modest, as shown on the attached contribution form. If your jurisdiction tivould prefer to make acne-time contribution iri lieu of annual contributions over the next five fiscal years, we will be sure to make an accurate record of your payment and will not contact you again. In addition, jurisdictions that are willing and financially able to double their annual contributions will be recognized as "Local Crovernment Champions" in all published lzsts of our supporters. . In closing, we would like to thank the leaders of the many jurisdictions--89 counties and 304 "municipalities--who believed in this project ten years ago anc~ enabled ,.~s to make available sa many new resources on the role of local government. We ask for your continued support to extend the project until a more permanent source of funding can be .obtained. If you have any questions about the project or this request, please contact Comrriittee Chair Brian I-Batt at (704) .789-2500 or Civic Education Coordinator Jan~Boyette at (919) 220-2552. _ thank you for your. consideration of our funding appeal.

There is a quote by Robert Maynard Hutchins, former president and chancellor of the University of Chicago, which expresses much better than I could the danger in this lack of involvement by young people: The death of democracy is not likely to be an assassination from ambush. It will be a slow extinction from apathy, indifference, and undernourishment. --Robert Maynard Hutchins (1899-1977) X16 2 • • r~ ~:~~` ~.®cal palrticip~ti®n in ~. °~ civic activities '~, ~:~ -_ ` 16 e. 14 ,. 12 . ,:. ~ 10 ~~ 8 ;~: b j ~ °' 4 i 2 ` _< 0 €~'. --- Average participation Qom, ~:. •,~: ~F'' _ ,~ ~a.~ __~. -.. ~. ~, z ,. . And this lack of involvement isn't limited to voting in national .elections. 'According to the Index of National Civic .Health created by the National Commission on Civic Renewal, participation in civic activities also been declining since the late 1970's, although a recent update with 1997 data offered some signs of improvement. - ®This chart shows local participation as an average of three percentages, pulled from " .Roper Polls: the percentage of adults who said they had attended a meeting on town or school affairs, served on a committee of a local organization, or served as an officer of a club or organization at least once within the preceding year. How long could your organization continue to fill its role in the community if the downward trend in this chart. resumes? - But you don't need national statistics to recognize this problem: Look around the room at any public hearing and-count for yourself how few young people are present. By and large, the people who come out to speak--for or.against aproposal--are middle-aged or older. If everyone becomes more involved as they get older, as they have kids of their own and buy.houses and worry about property values and traffic and their kids' schools, then maybe it doesn't matter much if they `'`sit out" until they are 30 or 35 or 40. But we are losing that rich tradition of civic participation. If parents don't take part in any civic clubs, don't talk about public policy issues at home, and don't bother to vote; their children may never develop those interests or habits,' either. 4 v ~ ~ ~_ ~~=~- -~ ~1V1CS 1~ ®Ll~ SC~iC~®1S "''~ The course that we called "civics" is now ~~ ~, . .: ~ ~ , art of a broader EL,P course Economic, °: ~~~ .~ Legal, and Political Systems in 1~ction), ~. ~ - which covers a lot of territory: 1 :~ - US and NC Constitutions -Legislation and law enforcement r~ -Federal, state, and local government, - -and microeconomics Macro F ~=~-~~ ~ -Public policy ~' .. .. .___ ____ _-,- ---~~ ~_t,4 .,m The high school course that includes civics covers a lot of territary:, key. provisions. of the United States and North Carolina Constitutions; how legislation is enacted and our laws are enforced; the roles of federal, state, and local government and the relationships among them; macroeconomics and microeconomics, including making economic choices; and the formulation of public policy. .. .. , 6 -~:-- _ ' i:. .. ., _ _4. nZ L'am'-~.- I~ :'~ .~ -C - How yon C~.r~ ~i~~p ~ .~ € ~ __ _ -~ _ _..~ ~/ Adopt a class at any grade level and offer your _ ~ ~_ help In scheduling local resource people. . ~ ~{ /' 1Vlake contact with civics or government teachers _ ~ ~ .~ =~ . .,,~ at your local high schools and ask how you can ~ . help in bringing civics to life. .~ .. ? m/ Sponsor a shadowing program to give. students a . ~ ~, -- - ~ . first-hand look at a local government. or non-profit - R - career.

Page Number:- Department: Emergency Management Presenter: Contact: Amy Akin l SUBJECT: Approval ofi Renewal of Contract # 97-.0205 w9th Motorola as a sole source covering the purchase, delivery, and installation of 800 MFIz radio equipment. BRIEF SUMMARY: In May .1997 the County went through the formal bidding process to establish a term contract, contract # 97.0205, for the purchase of 800 MHz radios on an as needed basis. This was before' the current sole source provision was enacted in the General Statutes. This contract established pricing at a percentage discount off manufacturer's suggested retail price. Therefore, if the prices decreased during the contract, the county's price would also decrease. Staff is recommending renewal of the existing contract # 97.0205 through the sole source provision in general statutes. = Contract provisions would remain the same except the pricing component will be updated with a current pricing proposal from Motorola. The establishment of this contract does.not require any - purchases. It is a term contract for the County's use when and if radio-purchases are needed. The contract was renewed in April of 1999 and it is time to renew again. Because many state and local entities are on similar term contracts with Motorola, Motorola is adjusting all renewals ~ so all contracts will be on the same contract period, i.e. calendar year. Therefore this renewal will extend the contract through December 31, 2001. RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS; Recommend adoption of resolution approving renewal of contract # 97-0205 through 'the sole source provision ih general statutes. . FUNDING SOURCE: ~, The establishment of this contract does not require any purchase at this time.

Thus, approximately one-fifth of all NHCHD STD clinic patients are under the age of 20. By their presence in the STD clinic, these teenagers are acknowledging. that they are engaging in risky behaviors: InNHC~'s STD.QuartErly Report from October 1, 2000 to December 31,.2000, - 2S% of individuals diagnosed with gonorrhea were under the age of 20, 19% of individuals receiving the HIV test were under the age of 20, and 45% of chlamydia patients were under the age of 20. In addition to the negative repercussions of having an STD, the presence of STDs also increases a person's risk of HIV transmission. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 51 % of new HIV infections in the U.S. are among people under the age of 25. For this reason, targeting adolescents with HIV prevention is tantamount to curbing the spread of this virus:. Given the incubation period of HIV, it can naturally be assumed that many ofthose.who develop AIDS in their twenties and early thirties became infected as teenagers..Many of the behaviors associated with HIV transmission, such as alcohol and drug use-as well as unsafe sexual practices, were developed as teenagers. The prevalence of STDs and HIV have reached an alarming rate in North Carolina and New Hanover County. Teens account for 3% of aIl reported AIDS -cases within North Carolina, which . is more than three times greater than the cumulative percentage for the United. States. New. Hanover County has an STD infection rate that is more than two times higher than the state average. NHCHD STD Clinic statistics show that there has been a 10% increase in the number ofpeople ..visiting- the STD clinic in Fiscal Year 2001, as compared to FY 2000. There has been an 11% increase in the number of people receiving HIV tests at NHCHD from FY 2000 to FY 200 There has been an 11.% increase in the number ofpeople. diagnosed with both chlamydia an~ 6 9. gonorrhea in New Hanover County in FY 2001, as compared to FY 2000. In April, 1999, the Search Institute published a report on New Hanover County adolescents entitled "Developmental Assets: A Profile of Your Youth." The Institute surveyed students in grades 6 through 12 at.the New Hanover County Schools, Cape Fear Academy, and Myrtle Grove Christian School. , According'to the survey, 33% of the students used alcohol once or more in the last 30 days, and 20% of students got drunk once or more in the last two weeks. ~Twenty- three percent of students used marijuana once or,more in the last 12 months, and 10% used other illicit drugs once or-more in the oast 12 months. Thirty-three percent of students have had sexual intercourse one or more times, and an alarming 22% of students have had sexual intercourse three or more times in their lifetime. This report describes the risk-taking behavior of youth living in New Hanover County. The TAP program is taking heed of these survey results, offering positive alternatives to teenagers so that they will be less likely to engage in these destructive activities. Each of the factors described above puts individuals at a greater risk of acquiring HIV or other STDs.., For this reason, it is essential to seek new ways to combat the overwhelming pressures many teenagers are unprepared to handle about drug and alcohol use, HIV/STD prevention, relationships, and other critical issues. TAP uses caring and trained peer educators to deliver the lifesaving messages necessary for survival, and helps teenagers develop positive decision-making skills. NHCHD's decision to target the adolescent population was initially determined in 1998 by the Southeastern North Carolina HIV Prevention Regional Community- Planning Group as, the area population least served by existing HIV prevention education, efforts. While Coastal Horizons Center, Inc. and Cure AIDS of Wilmington have programs.that target injecting drug users and minority females of childbearing age respectfully, the. NHCHD's TAP program has been the only local program that specifically targets adolescents with HIV/STD. prevention education.. More specifically, it uses the peer education model that has proven to be the most effective strategy to influence change in the adolescent population. - According to your 1999 Self-Sufficiency Survey,. one-fourth of housing development residents are interested in obtaining health care education services. The results of the survey demonstrate that the majority of residents would like educational programs in their .community that specifically target youth, and feel that unsupervised juveniles is a serious problem in the community. ,TAP offers a comprehensive,.structured, enjoyable, after school setting for adolescents t© learn skills to prevent teenage pregnancy and AIDs. In addition to:HIV preventiori educational programs, there are also strong reasons for people'at risk of I-IIV infection to be tested for HIV and to take charge of their health. Approximately 1 /3 ofHIV-infected individuals, or over 200,000 people, are not aware that they are infected, because they have not been tested. Testing for HIV as soon as possible after infection is necessary for individuals to receive medical care and medication to fight the virus. The sooner that HIV.- infected individuals begin taking medication to fight the virus, the greater their chances are for 17 (wing a higher number of healthy years. HIV testing is also the key to_stopping the spread of HIV ~"~`~ Lfo others. `'~ HIV counseling and testing at locations other than local health departments identify a greater percentage of people with HIV than testing in local health departments: L.5% of individuals tested at alternative testing sites have HIV positive results, compared to 0.6% of individuals tested at local health departments. People are more likely to take an HIV test if it is convenient for them. If they can be tested and receive free condoms by a skilled professional in their own neighborhood, they are more likely to take the test. Because of'the response to the question about health care screening services in the, community, your 1999 survey results indicate that HIV testing .and counseling services would be welcome in the housing developments. TAP's .role in connec#ion tvi#h the NI~CPII) and with other cotrimunity agencies New Hanover County Health Department is a public health facility that provides services to citizens ofNew Hanover County. Since 1976, NHCHD staff have looked for opportunities to gain access to Housing Development residents in their neighborhoods. There is a history of working together to provide education onhealth-related topics, most specifically on STDs and pregnancy prevention. NHCHD has held clinics at many housing development sites in previous years, and wishes to resume this collaboration. This proposal, which offers a combination of TAP educational programs to youth and HIV. counseling and testing services, serves as the perfect channel for resuming services between NHCHD and the WHA. TAP has already begun. serving WHA residents; for the past two years,: TAP, peer educators have been providing ongoing educational workshops to adolescents in Nesbitt Courts and Creekwood South. NHCHD saw the need for collaboration with the WHA, and encouraged TAP to provide programs to the housing developments. TAP has been accepted and welcomed into the two housing developments where it provides regular programs. There is a high level of participation by youth, especially by adolescent boys; in the weekly TAP presentations. - . The TAP program works closely with other NHCHD services. ,The TAP coordinator is . responsible for contacting teens seen in the NHCHD STD program to provide individual risk reduction education and referrals to TAP programs.; Conversely, referrals for HIV and STD ~'~screenings; at the health department are made by TAP peer educators when indicated. , Other NHCHD staff have provided tremendous support for TAP through.secretarial and administrative oversight, as well as.assistance with training activities and transportation of peer educators: Vivian Mears, RN, the. HIV Program Nurse at NHCHD, supervises the TAP , coordinator. With a background in adolescent psychiatric nursing, Ms. Mears has the experience and knowledge to serve as a mentor and advisor to the program coordinator and the peer educators. Ruth Foy, RN, the Immunization Nurse at NHCHD, serves as another mentor and guide for the TAP teens and program coordinator. Ms. Foy attends the weekly TAP meetings. and has involved the teens in the development of a Teen Health Day at the NHCHD in April, 2001. The TAP program coordinator has a Master's in Social Work and a Master's in Public Health from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She utilizes both her social work skiff ~tk~ her health education skills in working with adolescents. _ (~ ~J TAP has the support of collaborating organizations. The TAP coordinator is a member of the Cape Fear Teen Health Council, sponsored by Wilmington Health Access for Teens. The Tfll? coordinator is an active member of two subcommittees of the Cape Fear Teen Health Council:, the Teen and Adult~Mentoring Project (TAMP) and the Male Responsibility and Involvement subcorrimittee. TAP collaborates with CARE, a volunteer;program that offers services and activities for people infected. or affected by HIV. In addition to providing CARE with volunteer assistance, the partnership has served as an opportunity for peer educators to get to know people living with AIDS. NHCHD' also participates in the Southeastern North Carolina HIV Prevention Regional Community Planning Group- a-group of collaborating organizations, agencies, and individuals who meet monthly to identify local needs and improve HIV prevention efforts.. . ~iskory of TAP NHCHD began the TAP peer education program in January, 1'999 with $32,000 from the HIV/STD Prevention and Care Section of the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services. The initial funding was .for six months to pilot a peer education program for teenagers. Though six months was hardly adequate time to implement and-evaluate a new program, the initial start-up work wascompleted. A health educator was hired,. a cturiculum manual developed,.recruitmeait and training of teen peer educators completed, and successful programs- were facilitated by the peer educators: After this initial funding, TAP was refunded for a two year ~~ period by the Cape Fear Memorial Foundation. This funding expires in October, 2001. As mentioned earlier, TAP has provided programs to two of the housing developments for the past two years. These programs have high levels of participation rates and are well-established. The start-up work is complete; TAP is already awell-attended program in two of the housing developments, as well as in other sites around Wilmington. TAP offers a comprehensive program for adolescents, teaching them how~to'relate fo adults; family members, and peers in a positive manner. TAP'teaches adolescents how to respect themselves and others; in this way, it promotes family harmony'and self-"sufficiency. It also helps"to prevent adolescents,fromhaving children. TAP is not a piecemeal program~that focuses exclusively on one or two adolescent issues. , Instead, TAP is a holistic; all-inclusive program that teaches teenagers leadership skills, builds their self-esteem, increases their knowledge about how to stay, healthy, and gives them something constructive to do during the after school hours. It gives them the, opportunity to become role models for their younger peers, and to feel proud of themselves. It unifies youth in the community, giving older teenagers the leadership skills and desire to spend, time with the younger teens. . , ~, , Without fizrther funding, however, these programs will disappear in October. It is important ~to. demonstrate to the adolescents living in the housing developments that this program is not other temporary program-= providing hope, a structured environment,. and guidance from peer entors and adults fora-short time,: and then disappearing, leaving the adolescent, residents \. / without this positive;. structured,program in their community. TAP requests continued funding from your organization so that we can continue to be a consistent force in these adolescents' lives. ®bjectives of the TAP Program The TAP program espouses three main goals- these goals, as well as the objectives, activities; outputs, and outcomes that arise out of these goals, are found in the Appendix. The primary goal is to promote an environrrient in the eight family-oriented housing developments, as well as in other. Wilmington locations, where personal health, safety, and positive life skills are more socially and personally desirable to young people than unhealthy alternatives such as unsafe sexual practices and drug/alcohol abuse. Adolescents are constantly bombarded with peer pressure coaxing them to engage in negative activities: to have sex, to not use protection when they have sex, to try drugs, to drink alcohol, to smoke cigarettes,. and so on. The purpose of TA.P is to give adolescents the opportunity to send positive messages to their peers to counteract negative .pressures. By providing information, teaching personal risk reduction strategies, and serving as role models for their peers, TAP peer educators help to foster a social climate where it is comfortable and acceptable for adolescents to avoid risky behavior. If funded by the WIIA, the TAP program will focus its efforts on adolescents in the housing developments; working with these teenagers to create a positive environment where they are free to develop to their potential and have the confidence to resist peer pressure. The TAP program aims to educate teenagers that the risk-taking behaviors that expose them to HIV and other STDs also compromise their potential for healthy-and productive adult lives. TAP is alife-skills curriculum that was developed for HIV/STD prevention. Once these skills are learned, they apply to behaviors. and experiences throughout life. The TAP program offers adolescents the information, skills, and self-esteem building exercises that lead to increased self=confidence, improved health, and attainment of life . goals. The second'goal is to empower adolescents to make a positive difference in their own and other teenagers' lives through education, leadership and being a role model for other teenagers. The TAP, program currently consists of twenty-two peer educators. The six original peer educators' trained a second group of peer educators during a weekend training retreat; this second group then trained the' third group of peer educators during another training retreat. The trainings help promote TAP's objective of empowering adolescents to honestly discuss issues and educate one another. -Each peer educator is interviewed and carefully selected by the TAP program coordinator, and share three main attributes: they demonstrate a.zeal for helping their peers, they - are dedicated to alleviating the problems faced by adolescents, and they come from communities and demographic groups that have been targeted as "at-risk" for HIV and other STDs. In order. to make a difference in the community, it is essential for TAP to select peer educators who are the true peers of teenagers at risk of acquiring. HIV or other STDs; and may not be teenagers with active leadership roles in their school, star pupils or athletes. These teenagers may seem ordinary, but they are doirig'extraordinary things. t -two eer educators have been read im acted b the volunteerism and comet ` ~ y The twen y p g y p Y service that they have provided through TAP. TAP has given these teens a message that their community values them and that they can make a difference in their own.and other teenagers' lives. One TAP peer educator, Gordon, who facilitates TAP presentations every Wednesday morning at the Juvenile Detention Center, stated that TAP has shown him the "power of one,'' - that he alone can make a difference. As an African-American male, Gordon feels that he is making an impact by serving as a positive role model for the African-American males in the detention center. , Adolescents in the detention center respect Gordon and his messages of prevention, and openly and honestly discuss the issues that he raises with them. ` Through continued support, skill-building, and discussions, TAP has encouraged its peer educators to reach beyond themselves and become leaders in their community. At the same time, TAP staff provide guidance and mentoring fo peer educators to encourage them to practice positive life skills and reach their goals: The subgroup of teens targeted for TAP training falls in the category of financially needy and medically underserved. Some of the TAP peer educators come from single parent homes and some lack an adult mentor. The TAP coordinator serves as an adult mentor for,them, helping them through crises and periods of doubt in themselves. Some of the peer educators have stated that TAP has given them a sense of meaning in their lives- a positive force to .outweigh the negativity that surrounds them in their violence-torn, impoverished neighborhoods. TAP provides an opportunity for teenagers to 'develop a higher sense of self- esteem.. Research shows that teenagers who have a higher self-esteem, as well as a supportive adult mentor; .are less likely than other teenagers to engage in behaviorsthatput them at risk for HIV and other STDs. , . The TAP coordinator utilizes her background as a social worker to serve as a mentor both for TAP peer educators and for program participants. She has developed relationships with, program participants that, she sees every week at program sites such as the Creekwood South Recreation Center and the Derek Davis Recreation Center. When in-trouble or in need of a listening ear, the. program participants come to talk with her individually before or after the program. She thus serves as a mentor for the program participants, encouraging them to stay in school, continue coming to the TAP, sessions, and teaching them how to resolve conflicts in anon-violent manner. The program coordinator has already established- these relationships with youth at some of the. housing developments; the mentoring relationships will only grow, as well as increase,in member, with continued ~fitnding. This past year, the TAP program coordinator encouraged the peer educators to apply for scholarships to attend the Ryan White National Youth Conference in Denver,. Colorado. This youth conference, which took place February 17-19, 2001, was geared towards adolescent HIV, . prevention peer educators across the nation. Four TAP peer educators received scholarships to theconference: two received national scholarships sponsored by the conference (please refer to the newspaper article in the "Attachments" section), one received a scholarship from the Coastal AHEC Health Career Education Department, and one received- a scholarship from the local Ryan White chapter. Ouf of these four teens, only one of them had ever been on an: airplane, before, and one of them resides in the Creekwood South Housing Development. Their involvement with TAP , nabled them to take advantage of opportunities to travel and increase their education. ~7~ The third goal is to facilitate the exchange of ideas and open communication. between.TAP-trained teens and their peers, and provide opportunities for question and answer sessions. TAP presentations have enabled hundreds of teenagers to discuss issues of concern to them in an environment where they receive both correct information and respect for their opinions. For example, peer educators facilitated TAP workshops for teenage residents of l~Tesbitt Courts every Thursday afternoon in the fall of~2000. The opportunity to discuss issues of concern to them such as violence and relationships was as important as the messages about HIV prevention. In particular, the male participants enjoyed listening to an African-American male peer educator talk frankly with them about relationships, drugs, and alcohol. By the end of the semester, several program participants were motivated enough to prepare and facilitate parts of the workshops, ,demonstrating the hypothesis that if teenagers are given the attention and the opportunity to succeed, they will rise to meet expectations. Teenagers in Wilmirtgtori often comment that they are bored, -and that they get into trouble for lack of anything better to do. The majority of adolescent pregnancies occur between the hours of 3 pm and 6 pm because adolescents are bored and lack adult supervision. The July 6, 2000 issue of the Wilmington Morning Star News quoted Police Information Officer Linda Rawley as she explained the reason behind the rise in juvenile crime in Wilmington. According to Officer Rawley, the current outbreak of crime among teenagers is caused by the lack of positive outlets and supervision for young people. The TAP program helps to combat this problem by providing adolescents with options to keep them occupied. If funded, TAP will offer the programs on-site at the housing developments so that the programs will be easily accessible to the youth. TAP presentations are composed entirely of interactive activities that challenge program participants to think through problems and express their opinions. TAP peer educators benefit from their hours giving presentations in the community and program participants benefit by being engaged in constructive. activities. The TAP program coordinator encourages motivated, active program participants to apply to become peer educators. TAP peer educators often include question and anstiver sessions in their presentations. Index cards are passed out to program participants and collected to ensure the anonymity of,questions. Questions recently asked at a session at the Juvenile Detention Center include "How do you know if you can- trust someone?" "How can you stop doing drugs?" and "Why should you stay a virgin before marriage?" These questions reveal that teenagers welcome the opportunity to talk with and listen to other teenagers. Many of the questions center around dating and relationships. In feedback and evaluations from presentations; we have learned that it is extremely helpful for teenagers to learn from their peers that healthy relationships are about self-respect, respect for the partner, and open communication. The Ad~Jocate, a newsletter sponsored by the Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention Coalition of - North Carolina, printed the results of a .survey of parents and kids ages 10-15. The survey, conducted by the Kaiser Family Foundation and Children Now; revealed that 50% of the children said that they personally wanted more information about how to protect themselves against ® ..HIV/AIDS. Too often, adults do not offer teenagers the chance to discuss their concerns about health ~c~ 5 relationships, or teenagers are uncomfortable being candid with adults. TAP provides teenagers with this opporttuuty in a safe environment, assisted by a health educator who can provide them with referral and resource information. Strategies to Accomplish this ~3bjective The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) has conducted research to deternvne effective strategies to reduce the risky behaviors of adolescents. Based on current data, the most.effective prevention strategy to reduce high risk behaviors among .adolescents is to train peer leaders to provide , prevention messages to at-risk youth. According to the Nationil Campaign to Prevent Teen Pregnancy, peer pressure can be a positive influence to assist adolescents in making smart choices to avoid behaviors that put them at risk for HIV and STDs. One proven strategy is a series of prog'r'ams for small groups of adolescents, largely conducted by peer leaders.. This research-based evidence directed the development of the TAP program. The peer educators. use three methods to reach the target .population: a series of small group programs, community outreach events, and one-on-one outreach,:. Included in the series of programs is basic knowledge of HIVlSTDs and identification of risky behaviors. The most challenging component is in building support for safer behaviors. Skills,building is an"integral part of the series, assisting adolescents in developing methods of resisting external pressures and exercising internal control over behavior decisions. TAP peer educators are encouraged to follow the curriculum.closely so that HIV prevention messages are intertwined with strategies to improve the self-esteem; confidence, and decision-making. capabilities of program participants. `The TAP program coordinator attends-each of the peer-led sessions and offers support when needed. TAP prefers to canduct at least six cansecutive sessions at each site; however, the quantity of program sessions is flexible in order to adapt to the schedules of collaborating agencies. Whenever possible; the TAP- coordinator schedules more than six sessions at a given site. Research has. demonstrated that the effectiveness ofhealth-related educational messages is m~xini?ed by repeating'sessions..Repeat sessions are also necessary in order to involve program participants in the curriculum's interactive games and exercises. The second method of reachingadolescents is through outreach events. TAP has participated in a variety of these events, and is always looking for new ways to. participate in the community. Past outreach events include World: AIDS Day awareness booths, a Youth Summit, and the Hoggard High School Health Fair. These and similar outreach events are described in more detail in the section entitled "TAP' S accomplishments and activities". The third method of reaching adolescents is through one-one-one street outreach. TAP peer educators are encouraged to provide one-on-one informal education to their peers, sharing HIV and STD prevention education with other teenagers: -Peer educators are also trained to provide their peers with support and referrals for teen issues such as depression, pregnancy, and substance abuse. 176 The 'JCAP Peer Educat®rs: Wbo Are They? Since the initial group of peer educators was trained, there have been two more training retreats. At' each. of the retreats, the experienced peer educators train the incoming groups of peer educators; with the assistance of the TAP program coordinator. Each peer educator receives a curriculum, designed and compiled by the TAP peer educator. TAP currently consists of twenty- 4 two peer. educators. These adolescent educators range in age from 14-22; nine are male and . thirteen are. female. Fourteen of the peer educators are African-American, five are Caucasian, and three are Latino. One of the peer educators is HIV-infected, and acquired HIV perinatally. This. diversity within the group teaches the peer educators about people who are different from them, and helps to dispel stereotypes. Discussions at the weekly peer educator meetings often center around .cultural diversity and overcoming stereotypes. .The health educator selected the initial peer educators from various community sites, including Cure AIDS of Wilmington, Girls, Inc., the YMCA's Black Achiever's Program, the youth group at Union Baptist Church, the Latino youth group at St. Mary's Catholic Church, and the_ schools. Successive groups of peer educators have been selected from the community organization5~and youth groups where TAP gives regular presentations. TAP's philosophy is one of empowerment: rather than bring teenagers from the "outside" in to give presentations to youth in a given organization, TAP encourages youth from within the organization to become trained peer educators. In this way, adolescents give presentations to their true peers. For example,. when •~ TAP gave presentations to health classes at Hoggard High School, peer educators who were in the. health classes,. as well as other Hoggard High student peer educators, gave the presentations. One peer educator who gives weekly presentations to youth at the Derek Davis Recreation Center lives five minutes from the center. . There is currently a waiting list of eleven adolescents to become peer educators. Out.of these eleven"teens, t~vo attend TAP's weekly sessions at the Creekwood South Recreation Center, one attends TAP's weekly session at the Derek Davis Recreation Center, one attended TAP's sessions at the Nesbitt Courts Recreation Center, and three participated. in the Hoggard High School r presentations. The next interview and selection process will take place in April, 2001. TAP's accomplishments and activities ` Since its inception in January, 1999, TAP peer educators have reached 7,586 individuals through small group presentations, outreach events, .and one-on-one outreach activities. In the past five months alone, since October, 2000, TAP peer educators have reached 2,7b2 adolescents. Since January, 1999, TAP peer educators have given small group presentations alone to 2,811 individuals. These small grouppresentations have taken place for groups of adolescents at the .following collaborating agencies: Cure AIDS of Wilmington, Girls, Inc., the Juvenile Detention Center, the teen pregnancy division of the Coastal OB/GYN Clinic, the Adolescent Parenting Program of Planned Parenthood in both Pender County and New Hanover County, Hope Baptist ~: Church, St. Andrews AME Zion Church,. St. Luke AME Zion Church, Soul-Saving Station • Church; Grace United Methodist Church, Duplin County Evergreen Church, the Commuriit~~s7 and Girls Club, the YWCA, the YMCA summer job program,, Coastal Horizons, Wilmington Health .Access for Teens, Student Action for Farmworkers, Nesbitt Courts Recreation Center, the Creekwood Festival Committee, Wilmington Treatment Center, Crisis Line Open House, Creekwood South Recreation Center, Derek Davis Recreation Center, Hoggard High School, New Hanover High School East Campus, the Domestic Violence Shelter, UNCW Greek Organizations, the gay/lesbian youth support group at St. Jude's Metropolitan Community Church, Noble Middle School,. Methodist Homes for Children, the Generations Program of Fourth Street, the. Wilmington GRASP program, and the Coastal AHEC Health Careers Development Summer Camp. TAP facilitates several programs on a regular basis. ,One of these programs has been held every Wednesday morning during the health class at the Juvenile Detention Center since February, 2000. TAP provides six weekly workshops at the Nesbitt Courts Recreation Center dtu-ing the ' fall and spring semesters of the school year. TAP;peer educators. give presentations after school every Thursday to adolescents in the Creekwood South Recreation Center, and every Wednesday to adolescents in the Derek Davis Recreation Center. TAP gives presentations every other Friday to adolescents undergoing substance abuse treatment at the Wilmington Treatment Center... . During the small group presentations, peer educators give workshops on a variety of topics that deal with life skills and knowledge. Topics include violence prevention, dating abuse, -values clarification, HIV facts and information, dealing with the consequences of risky behaviors, communications ~ ole c lames g eer educators~tea hm art cgi pants the dskills to ' Through interactive ames an p ~p ~ combat peer g p Y P - ~ . pressure and adopt: a healthy lifestyle. _ , In addition to small group presentations, TAP peer educators have been involved in a diverse range'of outreach activities. For example, in December 1999 and December 2000, TAP peer educators participated in several events to raise awareness for World AIDS Ijay. Peer educators held World AIDS Day booths at tTNCW, Hoggard High School, Lakeside High School, New. Hanover High School, and Cape Fear Community College. At these. booths they distributed AIDS ribbons and conducted activities to raise awareness about HIV in New Hanover County and encourage prevention. Six peer educators attended a World AIDS Day celebration in Raleigh to honor volunteers. ; TAP also held a booth at the Hoggard High School Health Fair in April, 2000. Every student who walked by the booth was encouraged to spin the "Wheel of Fortune" and answer questions such as "How can you prevent yourself from acquiring HIV?" In this way, TAP encourages adolescents to actively think about how to have a healthy lifestyle; 500 adolescents played'the game during the Hoggard.Health Fair. TAP has also set :up the "Wheel o.f Fortune" two times at Independence Ma1L bringing its message of STD prevention and healthy lifestyle to the place where teens spend their free time. With the support of Gloria Crist of the DREAMS program, two TAP peer, educators wrote a thirty minute play about peer pressure, stereotypes, sexuality, relationships, and alcohol abuse. 17 ~Loria Crist directed. rehearsals. of the play for the peer educators-Curried-actors. ~ TAP performed the play at two venues: the. Adolescent. Pregnancy Prevention program, entitled Let's Talk Night, at Girls, Incorporated; and the Family Fun Day in the Park, which was a community event designed to bring families and the community together for an afternoon of free live music and " family-based'entertainment.. .. ~ " TAP peer educators. have increased their one-on-one street outreach work. Since its inception, peer educators have conducted 278 one-on-one outreach sessions. Since October, 2000, peer educators have facilitated 181 of these sessions, helping their friends in need. . In January, 2001, TAP collaborated with Wihningtan Health Access for Teens, Crossroads Co- . op, Communities that Care, the Community Mediation Center, and the New Hanover Commission. for Women; in order to put on a youth summit. TAP peer educators served as facilitators for ,small groups at the youth summit, which focused on developmental assets. The TAP program collaborates on a regular basis with Coastal AIDS Resource Efforts {CARE); ,which is a local volunteer organization that provides services for people infected and affected by HIV: In November, 2000, peer educators put together food baskets for fifteen New Hanover County residents living with AIDS. In December, three TAP peer educators volunteered at the " CARE children's Christmas party, passing out gifts and serving food to forty children and their families affected by HIV. Peer educators have volunteered at CARE's Easter egg hunt for HIV- infected children and at Camp CARE, the summer camp for children infected or affected by HIV. In January, 2001, CARE presented one TAP peer educator with .the Flame of Hope award for his outstanding volunteer service and leadership role... The TAP peer educators and staff meet weekly to .discuss ideas and practice presentations:. Each week, a different teen practices giving a presentation to the group. This strategy introduces the . . peer educators to different games and activities and provides feedback and constructive criticism to .each presenter.` Last month Professor Sandy Adams, who teaches a public speaking course at UNCW, spoke to the TAP peer educators about public speaking skills. Three of the peer , > > educators have received additional training as TATU (Teens Against Tobacco Use) peer . educators: ~ ' Currently, TAP gives presentations on almost a daily basis; it is not uncommon for TAP to ~ " provide. two presentations on a given day. TAP.receives daily requests. for presentations. Recently, two TAP. peer educators gave a presentation for an outpatient teen substance abuse support group at Coastal Horizons. We were invited t© give only one presentation; nevertheless, .the day after the presentation, the program coordinator called TAP requesting a repeat presentation the next week. All of the group participants told her that they enjoyed the participatory nature of TAP activities and wanted another session. A"Look Into TAP and Alternative Testing Sites if Funded . If TAP receives funding .from your organization, TAP will focus on providing presentations,-one- • on-one outreach, and community events to the Wilmington housing developments. TAP .will _ continue to give its regular presentations at two. of the developments, Creekwood South ar~ ~ g Nesbitt Courts. In addition, TAP will continue its regular presentations at the Derek,Davis. ,~~ Recreation Center. According to the Derek Davis'Recreation Center program director, Ms. Althea Macmillan, a large number of the youth who participate in center activities-live in the housing developments nearby. If funded, TAP will increase its presentations at the housing developments, and provide programs to youth in the following housing developments: Hillcrest, Houston Moore, Rankin Terrace, Taylor Homes, Vesta Village, and Willow Pond. The work has already begun, and collaboration between WHA and NHCHD is already taking place; the collaboration will expand greatly with continued funding: TAP will collaborate with adult staffmembers and mentors at each of the housing developments, . training them to.help participate in the series of workshops. In this .way, TAP peer educators, the TAP program director, and adult staff and mentors at the housing developments will collectively build a web to protect teens by strengthening their resolve to develop a healthy lifestyle. ~ This presence will demonstrate to the adolescents that people in the community truly value them and are looking out for them. When' adolescents misbehave, it is because they are seeking attention.. When this attention is willingly given to them; adolescents. become free to develop to their potential. . In addition to the TAP program coordinator, TAP will also-consist of a part-time community outreach worker. This outreach worker has been a TAP peer educator for two_ years, and has a; great deal of experience working with people and leading presentations. He has facilitated presentations at the Juvenile Detention Center for~the past year, and facilitates numerous other , ~ ~ ../ presentations at sites ranging from the Wilmington Treatment ,Center to the Creekwood South Recreation Center. He has already taken on leadership roles within TAP: he helps transport peer educators to the meetings, and serves as facilitator at the weekly TAP peer educator meetings. As the.oldest of the peer educators, the others look up to him and see.him as amentor. He is the peer educator who received the Flarrie of Hope award from CAL2E; and he received a scholarship to attend the National Ryan White Youth Conference. As anAfrican-American male, he serves as a positive role model for minority youth in the community. ~ With the assistance of the community outreach worker, TAP will be able to provide simultaneous workshops at two different sites,at the same time. In general, the outreach worker position will. enable TAP to reach a larger number of teenagers at more sites. By offering presentations of sites throughout Wilmington, including the Juvenile Detention Center, the Wilmington Treatment Center; and Hoggard High School; TAP is serving youth who live in all parts of Wilmington, including those who live in the various housing developments. Nevertheless, if funded by the Housing Authority; TAP will~provide presentations to other ~ community groups only when they do not conflict with presentations offered at the housing developments. Because we are a small county geographically, there are adolescents who may not reside in a housing development who interact with those who do. TAP has the potential to influence many youth in the community. What a positive message. it wouldsend to the community to have this effort supported and sponsored by the Wilmington Housing Authority, and implemented in cooperation with NHCHD. ® ntinue this ractice if funded b the TAP currently gives presentations on site, and will co p Y Wilmington Housing Authority. For example, TAP will continue to give presentations u1 the Creekwood South Recreation Center, the Nesbitt Courts Recreation Center, and at other sites in the comrriunity. The weekly peer~educator meetings will continue to take place at NHCHD, Transportation is provided for each of the peer educators by NHCHD staffmembers, from school to the meetings, and then back home a#ler the meetings. The TAP program coordinator will continue to utilize her skills as a social worker when working with the adolescents in each of the'programs. She will continue to assess when program participants need help; and will continue to talk with them individuaIly, listening to their concerns and sharing resource and referral information with them. This social work piece is a critical component of the TAP program Program participants tell the TAP program coordinator about problems with relationships, school, family life, sexual abuse, date rape, and other issues, and the TAP coordinator helps to guide them,.or directs them towards services in the community. -If funded by the Housing Authority, the TAP coordinator will increase the number of peer educators from the housing developments during the next selection process. NHCHD will complement TAP's prevention messages with-HIV counseling and testing in the housing developments. NHCHI) will bring HIV testing services into the housing developments, offering on-site HIV testing services to four housing developments each year. This testing ,will be available for all residents of the housing developments, and will be free of charge. Time 1FraYne The TAP program requests funding for-three years. During that time; TAP will rotate educational workshops for youth through each of the eight housing developments for families. TAP will provide. a six week series of presentations to each of the eight housing developments.a nLinimum of two times during the three year period. The housing developments with the highest youth. participation rates will receive a greater number of additional sessions. Number of Clients to be Served' TAP plans to have approximately 15 youth participate in each series of workshops. Since TAP plans to~ facilitate sessions for eight housing developments, TAP will serve a minimum of 120 youth a year. However, TAP will also continue its outreach activities and other presentations. TAP has reached 5;718 individuals from February, 2000 to February 2001. Because of this • history, TAP plans to reach approximately 5,000 youth each year.. Evaluation of Program Susan Roberts, Ph.D., an epidemiologist, volunteered to develop an evaluation survey to measure TAP's effectiveness. This survey, which is a modified version of the Prevention Minimum Evaluation Data Set developed by the Sociometrics Corporation, can be viewed in the Q "Attachments" section. TAP staff administer apre-test of this behavioral questionnaire to all ' v program participants before the beginning ofeach-new series of presentations; staff ask participants to fill out-the instrument again as a~post=test' during the last class of each series.of workshops. 'The evaluation tool measures a combination of knowledge and behavioral indicators. , Pre- and post-test data will be analyzed and compiled in a.final project report. Role plays and interactive games are used throughout the.series to not only liven the ' presentations, but also to assess-the participants' abilities to apply the information learned. , Program participants complete an audience evaluation form after presentations,, so that peer• educators can learn the skills that need improvement: This evaluation form, as well as some ,. completed evaluation forms, can also be viewed in the "Attachments" section.: Program data is collected by peer educators throughout. the project using forms to document the number of educational sessions conducted, .the type of,activity performed; the location, of the activity, the number of participants or contacts, and referrals made. The TAP coordinator monitors this data collection: Conc9usion The Wilmington Housing Authority has a.unique opportunity to fund;a proven successful program that reaches adolescents with messages to preserve, protect, and prepare them for family self- sufficiency. If teenagers can be reached early enough, they will feel valued and respected, and. learn to respect themselves and others. They will develop more responsible behaviors and will turn negative gear pressure into positive goals that will.guide them into becoming healthy, successful young adults. TAP is too important to this population and to this community to. lose. The TAP program is already up and running. in several of the housing developments; thins, none of the grant money would be spent on start up funds. All of the funding would go towards enhancing an already existing•program, ensuring that it reaches a large number of adolescent residents in the housing developments. If it;does not get refunded,- the program will disappear: Collaboration between WHA and NHCHD would increase the access of housing .development _ residents to health department services, since health department staff would be in the developments on a regular basis. -This proposal can plant the seeds for a consolidated health education and prevention plan that could be expanded through collaboration: with NHCHD, with additional funding. We urge you to give thisproposal a chance for survival. , ~~ Project Budget: Expenses (by Category) Year 1 Year 2 ~ Year 3 SalariesNUages , ....... $43,014. ...............:....... $45,165 ..:.................... $47,423 (1 FIT Health Educator; 1 P/T (15 hrs/wk) Commun ity - .

They range in ages from 13 to 21, and are from diverse ethnic and economic backgrounds. Gordon Huggins, the eldest member of the group, joined after his uncle died from AIDS. "I know a lot of people that do things that put them at high risk. Maybe.I can help,'.' he said. ' • TAP members meet once a month~for planning and are trained to be familiar with other local support services, appropriate methods.of presenting informa- tion and how tocommunicate in cone-on-one session.

We are requesting approval from the County Commissioners to apply for a grant of $T5,000 from North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services, Division of Public Health, Baby Love Program ,Maternal Health Unit. These Maternity Care Coordination Expansion Grants are for services to Women Eligible and Ineligible for Medicaid. (See attached memo dated March 19, 200, for further explanation.) New Hanover County is eligible# r 2.5 full tim sitions based on statistics of our . estimated annual number of 253 icaid recipients in our coun w o are no co e o receive Maternity Care Coordination Services. We are requesting one full-time Maternity Care Coordinator (MCC) position. The $15,000 represents 6 months of start-up funding. This position will be a home visiting position since space at the hospital is an issue. Opportunities for start-up funding do not come along very often. If we are to meet the unmet need and take advantage of funding opportunities, we need to act now. Although $15,000 will not meet the total amount needed for salary for 6 months ($21.299 Salary + $5,034 Fringe=$26,333), the combination of this state grant ($15,000) and earned Medicaid Revenue ($12,900 for 1st 6 months) through providing this service will be more than enough ($1,567 more) to meet the salary/fringe requirements of the position for 6 months. After the 6. months, the Medicaid Revenue is projected at $51,600 annually which is only $1,065 less than the annual salary and fringe of $52,665 for.the MCC nurse position. This would result in the county providing a small supplement of $1,065 for the annual salary/fringe. In the iongaerm, even though the county may have some small cost in terms of supplementing the salary, the county will see much more benefit and cost savings due to these services provided to low income pregnant and postpartum women.. This will result in better birth outcomes (i.e. healthier babies, .shorter hospital stays, and fewer postpartum complications), reduced healthcare costs, and healthier families.

This is $1,567 more than the the $26,333 needed for the first 6 months salary and fringe for the new MCC position. The extra $1,557 earned during.the first 6 month start-up period can be used to offset the shortfall of $1,065 for the 12 month annual salary.,:'` ' In future years, unless we earned additional Medicaid.Revenue through this position, the county would need to appropriate the additional $1,065 needed to make up difference between the annual salary/fringe of $52;665 and the earned Medicaid Revenue of $51,600. . 207 __~ _._.~-~ _-----~ n i \ ~ ~ ~ 1 /' 4 r , , ~:+c~k t_~ ,, , /.2,._ _ North Carolina Department of Health_and Human Services ~~~ ~~ ~ '`~. ;, ~~ ;_ ~I}ivision of Public Health •Women's & Children's Health Section `~~ ~ ~?~-~~-h.

Barnes, MSW ~~`- Baby Love Program Manager, Maternal Health Unit SUBJECT: Maternity Care Coordination Expansion Grants for Women Eligible and Ineligible for Medicaid We are pleased to announce the availability of grant funds to be used to increase the number of women in your county receiving Maternity Care Coordination (MCC) services. Funding is available through June 30, 2002. A11 state funds are subject to review for possable reduction for this fiscal year due to the present State budget situation. MCC Expansion Grants are included in this category and funds may be reduced. ' Grant for Women Eligible for lVledicaid Eligibility is based upon the estimated annual number of Medicaid recipients who are not currently contracted to receive~'~ MCC services in your county. The number of clients previously contracted to be served is reduced from the estimated ~~J number of Medicaid deliveries (excluding estimated emergency Medicaid deliveries) during FY2001 to determine your unmet need for MCC services and the number of positions that may be requested with these grant funds. We are excluding the number of estimated emergency Medicaid deliveries to distinguish between the number of Medicaid recipients who are eligible for NICC services but have not enrolled from those women who were ineligible for MCC services. Agencies may apply for funds sufficient to support as many maternity care coordinators as they have unmet need among Medicaid patients. While there is no maximum amount for which an applicant may apply, the level of funding requested should be commensurate with the additional number of Medicaid recipients to be served. We are estimating that an. appropriate caseload for a full time (100% FTE) Maternity Care Coordinator is 100 clients served over the course of a year (65-70 women at any given time). Please complete Attachments I , I1 and VII (Face Sheet). Grants For Women Ineligible for Medicaid Funding is targeted to agencies in counties with >_45 deliveries to women who received emergency Medicaid at time of delivery during FY00. Awards will be based upon an annual salary and fringe benefit cost of $33,900 per full-time maternity care coordinator. The level of funding requested should be commensurate with the additional number of persons to be served. The maximum amount that one county may receive is $3,900; prorated amounts may be awarded for half-time positions or greater. An appropriate caseload for afull-time (1.0 FTE) Maternity Care Coordinator should be 100 clients served over the course of the year. Funding will cover services provided July Ol, 2001- June 30, 2002. _..= a complete Attachments V, VI and VII (Face Sheet).

For FY98-99, the appropriated amount was reduced to _ $250,000. The appropriation provides seed funding to local health-departments, community, migrant and rural health :centers to employ. additional full-time or part-time maternity care coordinators: Grant recipients are expected to provide future support for these positions through Medicaid earnings. In Fiscal Year~1989-90, 40 percent of he 28,000 deliveries funded by Medicaid were to women who received"care coordination services. With expansion of Baby Love Program benefits fo pregnant women up. to 150% of poverty in January 1990, pregnant teenagers in April 1990, and ~. ,pregnant women up to.185% of poverty in October 1990,. the Medicaid Program is now covering approximately 35% more deliveries than during 1989-9Q. In FY 2000, approximately 54% of Medicaid deliveries received maternity care coordination services. it is our goal to provide maternity care coordination to al! Medicaid-eligible pregnant women who desire this service. The North Carolina General. Assembly first appropriated $125,000 to the Division of Public Health to extend maternity care coordination. (MCC) services to fovv income pregnant and postpartum women who were ineligible for Medicaid in Fiscal Year 1992 (FY92): Appropriations for the next four fiscal years increased to $250,O~OD annually and then dropped to $79,100 in FY97. In subsequent years, funding was restored to $250,000: The Women's and Children's Health Section has $450,000 appropriated for FY 2002 to expand Maternity Care Coordination Services to women eligible and ineligible for Medicaid.. .All state . funds are subject to review for possible reduction due to the present state budget ,situation. iVlaternity. Care Coordination Expansion Grants are included in this category and funds maybereduced. EUG9BLE AGENCIES , Only those local agencies that are currently enrolled with the North Carolina Medicaid Program as a maternity care coordination provider are eligible to apply. Successful applicants must follow the policies and procedures outlined in the Technical Manual For Maternity Care Coordination regardless of the participants' Medicaid eligibility status. ~~ Attachment i 1~ABLE 1- Estimated Unmet need for NICC Services in Counties Previously Receiving MCC Grants ESTIMATED ~IEDICIAD ~~ ~ xFC>/IVI~c liCC PRIOR ~ OF` CLIENTS ~ PIZEVIOVSLY C01TIZ~~CTED TO BE SERVED E5'PL'VL~'I'ED # 1' OE RIEDICAID RECEIPIENTS 1`iOTPREY"IOUSLY" bL~.YL~ILl~1 # ~,Ir....,~ '~ ' POSI3 ~" C'Oili'V'T'i' DELIVERIES FY2~Q1 ~ ~ -Ip FY 9 C, FY: 9I F"Y 92 -FY ' 93 ~" ~-i I1' 95 FY 96 FY 97 ~FY 98 FY 94 k-Y 09 > COV~IRACTED TO B`E SERVED TIiAT ?iiAY l APPI:IED',F~ Alamance 878 372 0 0 0, 0 0 I00 0 0 0 0~ 406 4.06 Alexander ` 244 38 0 0 80 20 0 0 " 0 0 0 0 , ~ 106. .. 1.06 Beaufort 411 144 0 0 0 0 120 0 0 50 ~ _ 0 0 97 0.97 Brunswick 590 100, 75 ' 75 0 39 0' 0 0 0 100 0 201 2.01 Buncombe" 1,498 270 300 301 38" 0 ' 154 0. 0 `0 100 0 , ~ , 335 3.35 Burke 688 71 150 30 0 77 0 100 0 0 100 0 160 1.60 Cabarrus 792 148 75 0 100 0. .0 0.. 125 125. 0 -0 219 2.19 Caldwel I 657 197 0 0 _ 100 77• 154 0 0 0 0 0 129 - 1.29 _ Carteret 381 84` 75 75 0 0 0 0 0 0.- 0 , . 0 147 1.47 Caswell I54 39 0 0 0 ` 32 0 0 . 0 0' . 0 0. , 83 0.83 Cleveland `. 885 253 136 0 100 154. 77~ 0 0, 0 ~ 0 0 165. 1.65 Columbus ~ ~629~ 344 137 0 0 0 0 55 0 0 0 25 68~ 0.68 Craven 750' 95 150 150 0 0. 0 0 0 0 0 0 355 3.55 Cumberlarid 2,234 523 300 0 0 462 0 300 150 150 0 ~0 ~ 349 .3.49 Davidson 1,095 _ 237_ 150 0 0 231 77 0 0. 0 0 0 400 4.00 Durham 1,506 267 300 0 150. .' 0 154 200 0 0 0 0 435 4.35 Forsyth ' 2,044 y, 317 300 ~0 0 0 0 0. 0 0 0 0 '1427 14.27 Granville-Vance 844 ~ 137 IIS 135 0 147 0 0 0 0 0 0 310 3.10 Guilford ' ` 2,550 459 0 0 300 500_ 308 400 50 50 0 0 :483 4.% Henderson 597 354 ~ ` 0 120 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 123 l~,J Iredell $50 68 75 150 120 0 0 0 35 75 0 0 327 3.27 Johnston" 788 1lb - I50 1:50 50 77 0 0 0 0 0 0 245 2.45 Jones ~ 102 0 0 0 0 0~ 0 0 0 0 0 25 77 0.77 Lenoir 562 229 140' ~ 0 0 0 0 0 50 0 0 0 143 1.43 Lincoln 380 46 0 0 0 150 0 0 0 0 0. 0 184 1.84 Moore 509 123 252 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 134 1.34 Nash 710 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 100 0 0 610 6.10 New Hanover 1,000 127 320 0 300 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 253 2.53 Onslow 1,006 318 129 150 88 0 0 100 0 0 0 0 221 2.21 Pitt 993 2 78. 300 0 0 0 0 0 0 100 0 0 315 3.15 Randolph 1,004 ` . ~ 174 150 0 0 150 0 0 0 0 0 100 ' 430 4.30 Richmond 532. 156 160 0 0 90 0 0. 0 0 0 0 126 1.26 Robeson 1,77b 451 310 90 ~ 0 80 0 0 50 50 0 0 745 7.45 Rockingham 720 74 '"0' 0 0 120 4 67 133 0 ` 0 325 ~ 3.26 Rowan 900 18 150 0 300 0 77 0 0 0 0 0 355 3.55 R-P-McD 1,071 413 177 0 0 144 37 0 20 20 0 0 260 2.60 Sampson 612 159 150 0 100 77 0 0 0 0 0 0 126 1.26 Stanly 415 111 137 0 0 104 0 0 0 0 0 0 63 0.63 Surry 528 .148 152 0 0 80 0 0 0 30 0 0 1.18 1.18 i 781 171 90 0 0 0 0 0 0 90 0 60 370 3;~"° 983 310 0 0 0 173 0 0 0 -200 100 0 200 2!~ J Wilkes 597 45 189 0 100 113 0 0 0 0 0 32 118 1.18 INSTRUCTLONS FOR APPLICANTS ELIGIBLE TO EXPAND MCC SERVICES I=OR 1iVOMEN E~..1~1~1.-~ FOR MEDICAI® -~ FUNDING .

Agencies that receive funding will be required to submit-the date personnel was-hired, name of personnel hired and report the number of clients served by the additional maternity care coordinator during the award period. Agencies that fail to comply with these conditions or fail to serve additional numbers of Medicaid recipients- commensurate with. the funding provided will not be considered for maternity care coordination grants in future fiscal years. APPLICATIOiV -Qualified providers applying for a maternity care coordination grant must provide the following information on DHHS Form T-659 (Attachment II): (1) An estimate of the annual number of pregnant Medicaid recipients in the county who are not contracted to receive maternity care coordination services.

(3) The number of full-time and/or part-time maternity care coordinators vvho will be employed using these grant funds. . (4) The amount of funding requested by the applicant agency. (5) Current number, of MCC positions in_full-time equivalents (FTEs). is must, com lete a DHHS T-659 for each county for whic~u~g is Distract health departmen p being requested. s ' To help local agencies estimate the number of Medicaid recipients who are not contracted to receive MCC services, the Women's and Children's Health Section has enclosed a current statistical summary (Attachment 111 ). It provides the following information. by county: (1) The estimated number of Medicaid deliveries excluding estimated emergency Medicaid deliveries for FY2000-2001. (2) The number~of Medicaid deliveries receiving MCC, services prior to the awarding of MCC grants (prior to FY 1991). (3) The additional number of Medicaid recipients who were to receive MCC services from local agencies that received MCC grants during FY 2000-2001. (4) The estimated number of Medicaid recipients not contracted to receive MCC services. This number was obtained by subtracting numbers (2) and (3) above from number (1). (5) Column six indicates the maximum number of MCC positions that each county may apply for based upon 100-maximum clients .per each FTE_ ;, _ ' In determining whether the number of full-time equivalent positions and the amount of funding requested by an applicant agency are in-line with the additional number of persons.#o be served, Women's and Children's Health Section will use the following formula: .
