1 FINANCING (There will never be enough money!) Stephanie B. C. Bailey, MD, MS Director of Health Nashville, Tennessee February 8, 2006

2 Our Stories: …from our neighborhoods …from the practice …from the greater perspective

3 Mary B. 53 years old Grandmother with custody Food stamps, small government check and children on TennCare Has not seen a doctor in years “better not to know” “too many other things to think about”

13 Jackie, age 12, 4 th grade Family has been put out of MDHA Was in room when uncle was shot Has been raped WHEN SHE GROWS UP…. ……………she wants to be a doctor

14 Incarceration Handicaps Violence, truancy, suspensions Mixed families Failure (academic) Needing and/or wanting attention Lack of tools Adult indifference Low self-esteem

15 Ms. Sadie “My daughter was not sending them to school and their father didn’t want custody. She was on drugs. I took them in my home and I got legal guardianship because they needed to be in school. I was hoping she would be able to take them back when she came out of rehab. I was told she had a terminal illness caused by HIV. She died almost 4 yrs ago.”

16 Between 1990 and 1998, the number of grandchildren being raised solely by grandparents and with no parent living in the home increased to more than 1.3 million – an increase of 53%.

17 Relative Caregivers Substance Abuse, by a birth parent (38%) Incarceration, (17%) Abandonment, (17%) Removal by child protective services because of neglect/abuse, (11 %) Teen pregnancy Emotional Problems/Mental Health, (11%) Parental Death, (6%)

18 The majority in one study, simply assumed care giving informally out of a strong sense of familial obligation and love – the grandparent being a constant and stable presence in a child’s life....but in most studies, grandparents were in a crisis situation when they assumed the care and had no prior plans to raise their grandchildren

19 Summary Characteristics the “WHO” Typically female Black Unmarried Unemployed Living at or below poverty level Undereducated Additionally, “they fear being unable to raise their grandchildren to adulthood”

20 One grandmother said…. “ If they don’t take me out of here in an ambulance, I’ll care for them. I’ve had to almost crawl to the kitchen sometimes but they’ve never gone without a meal”

21 One 63 years old Grandmother: “when I had a son I started him on cereal when he was 4 weeks old, fruits and vegetables when he was 6 weeks, and meats 2 weeks after that…..for my granddaughter I was told to give no rice cereal until she was 5 months old” “I use to give half an aspirin for fever if my son had a reaction to immunizations, but I was told not to do that now”

22 CAREGIVERS’ HEALTH = SAFETY NET For RAPHEAL, KEISHA, JACKIE, KENNY, CHRISTOPHER …. and the rest….

23 Streams of Funding Categorical Each with its own set of forms Does it address the wholeness? Does it create the impact? Does it prohibit working together? An answer; but is it the answer?
