1 Community Health Assets Mapping Partnership (CHAMP) Access to Care
HISPANIC COMMUNITY: East Winston, Oldtown, Waughtown in Winston Salem, NC

2 Background of Mapping Process
African Religious Health Assets Program Developed a PIRHANA tool for identifying and understanding the positive things in communities Community Health Assets Mapping Partnership or CHAMP was adapted from PIRHANA, developed and refined in Memphis and South Africa to aid in aligning and leveraging assets to improve healthcare outcomes CHAMP Access to Care is being used in North Carolina as part of our FaithHealthNC movement

3 Mapping Workshop Process
In this community, we held 4 workshops: Health Provider Workshop ( ): people and organizations providing religious, health, and social services in the community, broadly defined Health-Seeker Workshops (7-12, 7-18, ): Conducted in Spanish community members who are primarily consumers of religious and health services

10 Exercises Health Seeker Workshop (Mostly Informal Discussion)
Community Mapping: Participants draw maps of the assets in their community Health Index: Participants identify the most important factors contributing and working against health in the community Ranking of facilities: Participants rank community organization on how well they support factors contributing to health Religion and Health Index: Participants identify ways religion and religious organizations contribute to health Religion and Health Ranking: Participants rank religious organization on how their activities related to health and religion Good Practice: Participants list outstanding community organizations and describe their characteristics Local Action: Participants discuss where we go from here Health Provider Workshop Community Mapping: Participants populate a timeline of key social, political, religious and health events or create a map of the “footprint” of their organizations Health Services Matrix: Participants identify the ways that local entities contribute to health Social Networking Spidergram: Participants describe the connections and relationships between community entities Religion and Health Index: Participants identify ways the religion and religious organizations contribute to health Good Practice: Participants list outstanding community organizations and describe their characteristics Collaborative Contribution Grid: Participants identify existing and potential collaborative partnerships and shared resources. Local Action: Participants discuss where we go from here

11 Community Mapping

12 What you put on the maps: 21 Entities

13 What we learned from your maps
Participants highly value most safety net clinics, but barriers still exist to care Transportation and documentation for driving and pharmaceuticals are key Trusted church leaders and the “sanctuary” of church are huge assets Parks, after school programs, tutoring, etc. within walking distance of homes are hugely supportive of family culture Gas stations are highly valued

14 Factors that work against health/well-being in your community with regard to Access
Lack of Transportation Lack of Education and Information Racism Fear of Fines Lack of Compassionate Care Poverty

15 How do community organizations contribute to health?
Group 3 Food Sources Medicine/ Prescription Services Social Services/Youth Services Day Care Services Public Health Mental/Physical Public Transportation Churches Proximity to Care 4 3 5 Transportation N/A Compassionate Care 2 Information/ Knowledge/ Education 1 Adequate Funds Jobs Good Health Care Coverage In the seeker workshop, we ranked different types of organizations and factors

16 What does your organization believe to be the most important factors contributing to health with regard to those who need better access to care? Provider Workshop: Affordability, Location of Care Documentation Status Trust/compassion/respect and cultural sensitivity Education Transportation Cost

17 How Religion Contributes to Health/Well-being
Pastors are often the only trusted person with whom participants feel “safe” sharing their needs, concerns and issues (e.g., Pastors Rosa and Daniel) Offer hope, trust and nurturance Good way to share and disseminate information to help the Latino Community

18 Providers’ Health Services Matrix
6 Prevention and Education Services 4 Advocacy Services 4 Nutritional Support Missing were for-profit and governmental organizations, care for manual laborers and culturally competent mental health counselors, especially for Hispanic youth

19 Collaborative Contribution Grid for Providers: What Can you Give and Get
Anthony's Plot Community Name of Other Organization Existing Partnership Potential Partnership Contributions you are or could potentially make Contributions you receive or would like to receive from this organization WFU Campus Kitchen X -education/internship opportunities for students -food Churches in Winston-Salem -volunteers & meals for overflow shelter -volunteers & donations for our other ministries Shepherd's Center -faith community nursing course & support program Forsyth Tech International Center -Assisting with DACA filing -Learning how to help with DACA filing WFBMC/Novant/ health clinics -health professional volunteers for our events with homeless & other under-served populations

20 Organizations of which you are most proud:
Seeker Workshop Responses: Provider Workshop Responses: El Buen Pastor Presbyterian Church Anthony’s Plot Community Care Clinic Southside United Healthcaer Clinic Green St. UMC Clinic Brnner Fit Novant Health/Forsyth Pediatrics Grocery Stores Imprints Gas Stations Que Pasa Media Traditional Healers and Medications Young Life Old Town Elementary School Morningstar Baptist Church Parks Forsyth County Food Consortium Mexican Businesses Iglesia Cristiana Sin Fronteras Afterschool tutoring Human Relations Dept. of City of WS Services for youth The Budd Group

21 Biggest Winners Were…:
El Buen Pastor and St. Benedict the Moor-Churches! Community Care Clinic Southside United Healthcare Downtown Health Plaza (for pregnancy) Imprints Gas Stations Grocery Stores

22 Next Steps: Seekers Create more options for access to low cost service (health, dental, pharmacy) Better treatment for Hispanics in the medical system Access to information on preventative care A better and more frequent transportation system The ability to obtain identification Self-reliance Teach their community financial responsibility, with the hope that making this change will start to break the negative Hispanic stereotypes Create more after-school programs to keep children off the street while parents are at work Bi-lingual directions on medications More Pre-natal services Low cost mammograms Diabetes Clinics Culturally sensitive Providers who dialogue with patients and provide compassionate care, honor and respect

23 Next Steps: Providers Learn more about the criteria for health services and safety nets for those who are undocumented in order to distribute information through a central site (such as Anthony’s Plot) Become more coordinated as a group of Hispanic providers Share information learned at this mapping event at the Hispanic League’s monthly meeting Reach out to transit authorities in order to increase the number of routes on city bus system Connect with the Hispanic community through health fairs Focus on continuity of care for those being served ( i.e. follow up with patients who test positive for diabetes at health fairs, etc.) Generate real relationships with the providers in the room, through joint projects and grants Build trust, especially with those who are undocumented Teach immigrant children about their heritage as a way to foster cultural pride and reduce depression/mental illness rates among Hispanic youth Create more asset mapping events with different populations (refugees, food providers)

24 Questions Do you see any differences between the things that the health seekers mentioned and the things that the health providers mentioned? Do you see any other steps that we can take together? Have you thought of any other steps in the time since the workshop that would be important to add to this list? How can the next steps of the providers and seekers fit together?

25 What did you learn during the process?
Questions Time has passed and if you went through this experience, what did you get out of the workshops? What did you learn during the process?

26 Questions How could FaithHealthNC, your church and other organizations, in partnership with the people who live, work and play in your neighborhood , help to align people and local assets to obtain the things they need to live healthy (abundant) lives? How would YOU be willing to help us move forward on the ideas we talked about today?
