3 Community Profile 2007 Demographic Trends Human Development Panel Topics Best Practices

4 Demographic Trends in Okmulgee County (part 1) Population counts for Okmulgee County and its major communities have changed very little since 2000. Growing cultural diversity, particularly among the population <25 Living arrangements are changing significantly with more children living with a single parent, especially the mother, and living with other relatives, especially grandparents Demographic Trends

5 Okmulgee County’s population 65+ projected to make up 20% of population by 2030 (up from 15% in 2000) Population <18 projected to account for 24% of population by 2030 (down from 27% in 2000) As working age population’s share declines, the 2030 projected dependency ratio climbs to 76 per 100, up from 73 per 100 in 2000 Demographic Trends in Okmulgee County (part 2) Demographic Trends

6 Larger number of people over 65 years of age are living alone, especially women Median family income varies by race Large population of mobile renters Demographic Trends in Okmulgee County (part 3) Demographic Trends

29 Inadequate Income

30 Tulsa Area Human Development Industry What is it? Independent and collective action of efforts to address the education, health, housing, family support, emergency financial, and transportation needs of families and individuals in the Tulsa area. Increasingly these efforts seek to prevent needs through promoting increased self-sufficiency among people in the Tulsa area while still intervening to respond to crises and other concerns.

31 The Roots of the Challenge Thirty Year of Economic and Social Changes Emergence of new persistent poor in late 1960's and early 1970's Massive loss of low skill/high pay jobs Sharp rise in working poor Decline in young male workers' wages Increase in female headed families Impact of substance abuse All trends disproportionately affected: ~African-Americans ~young children & young families Human Development

32 Human Development: Key Points Middle class is disappearing Many households lack adequate income Stress of inadequate income and related conditions is widespread Starting life in Okmulgee County for many is risky business Human Development

33 Human Development: Key Points… continued Populations of aging and persons with disabilities are large and growing Health challenges are critical to individual and community well-being Poor human conditions impact crime and growing incarcerations Overall progress in human development is tied to educational success Human Development

34 The Middle Class is Disappearing ~Lower income groups greatly expand, middle shrinks, highest income group increases dramatically

57 Stress of Inadequate Income and Related Conditions is Widespread ~Based on following key indicators : Poverty Families with children headed by women Youth 16-19 not in school or high school graduates Men 16-64 not employed or in labor force Inadequate Income

58 “Severely Distressed” and “Distressed” Neighborhoods Definitions Census tracts with at least 3 of the 4 following characteristics: 1. Percentage of people living in poverty Severely Distressed: 27.4% or more Distressed: 14.2 to 27.3% (1 standard deviation below) 2. Percentage of families with related children headed by women with no husband present Severely Distressed: 37.1% or more Distressed: 21.6 to 37.0% (1 standard deviation below) 3. Percentage of 16-19 year olds who are not enrolled in school and not high school graduates Severely Distressed: 23.0% or more Distressed: 11.5 to 22.9% (1 standard deviation below) 4. Percentage of civilian, non-institutionalized men ages 16-64 who are unemployed or not in the labor force Severely Distressed: 34.0% or more Distressed: 21.8 to 33.9% (1 standard deviation below) Taken from The Annie E. Casey Foundation and The Population Reference Bureau, 2003, “The Growing Number of Kids in Severely Distressed Neighborhoods: Evidence from the 2000 Census;” Inadequate Income

67 Starting Life in Tulsa for Many is Risky Business ~Combination of many risk factors takes heavy toll and early screening for risk level is inadequate

68 Risk Factors for Infants

69 Adequate Early Screening Essential for All Children to Assess Impact of Risk Factors Some evidence indicates only small portion of children receive needed screening Sufficient data do not exist to clearly indicate extent and nature of problem Starting Life

70 What is early intervention? Early intervention applies to children of school age or younger who are discovered to have or be at risk of developing a handicapping condition or other special need that may effect their development. Early intervention consists of the provision of services such children and their families need for the purpose of lessening the effects of the condition. Early intervention can be remedial or preventive in nature – premeditating existing developmental problems or preventing their occurrence. Starting Life

77 Health Challenges are Critical to Individual and Community Well-being ~Inadequate income, high risks of starting life and poor lifestyle choices contribute to major health concerns

78 Health Challenges

79

80 Major Health Concern: Oklahoma and Tulsa County faring poorly compared to US in age-adjusted death rates, 1980 to 2002 Trend: Since 1993, US death rates declined but Tulsa Co and OK rates have not changed. Benchmark: Tulsa and OK death rates should not exceed the US rate. Individual responsibility is key to personal risk reduction. Good: The Tulsa Health Dept., St. Francis, OU and 18 Tulsa, Broken Arrow, Sand Springs and Union public schools have partnered to concentrate on risk reduction among school children. Lapolla, Health Policy Analysis of the Tulsa Metropolitan Area, Center for Health Policy Research and Development, OUCPH, 2005; THD; United Health Foundation State Health Rankings, 2004 Health Challenges

81

82 OBESITY Trend: America’s weight gain epidemic – 25% of Americans are obese – more than doubled in 15 years. Benchmark: We must reverse this trend. Bad: Consequences – –high healthcare costs. –Increased heart disease, type II diabetes, osteoarthritis, hypertension, gallbladder disease, breast cancer, endometrial cancer and colon cancer. Bad: OK and Tulsa Co heart disease rates are higher than the rest of the nation – only one state ranks worse than OK. Lapolla, Health Policy Analysis of the Tulsa Metropolitan Area, Center for Health Policy Research and Development, OUCPH, 2005; NCHS, CDC; THD; Tulsa County Health Profile; NIH; United Health Foundation; BRFSS, CDC; St. Francis Health System FY 2004 Community Needs Assessment. OK US THD – Patel/Woodruff 9/05 Major Health Concern: Poor Lifestyle Choices -- Obesity Health Challenges

83

84  Trend: Percent of adult smokers (2003): 22.7(Tulsa Co), 25.1(OK), 22.0(US), state rank=36.  Benchmark: Smoking bans in public venues, smoking cessation programs, and increasing cigarette taxes = curtailed adult smoking and youth take-up rate.  Good: OK youth smoking percent is below the national average— 26.5(OK) and 27.5(US); adult smokers declining locally, statewide and nationally (2003).  Bad: Smoking is a major cause of premature death, cardiovascular and pulmonary system disease including heart attack, stroke and cancer. THD – Patel/Woodruff 9/05 NCHS, CDC; THD;Tulsa County Health Profile; NIH; BRFSS, CDC Major Health Concern: Poor Lifestyle Choices -- Smoking Health Challenges

85

86  Tulsa’s uninsured and Medicaid beneficiaries seek primary care in Tulsa hospital ERs. ER visits by Medicaid recipients actually exceeded uninsured visits by 25%.  Tulsa hospital ER patient survey found that 73% were not true emergencies: 30% treated for non-emergency conditions – another 43% could have been treated in non-emergency facilities within 48 hours.  Using hospital ERs for non-emergency care is a costly and inefficient.  Non-emergency ER use is a major contributor to overload and frequent divert status of Tulsa hospital ERs — especially in the last 2 years. THD – Patel/Woodruff 9/05 Lapolla, Health Policy Analysis of the Tulsa Metropolitan Area, Center for Health Policy Research and Development, OUCPH, 2005; THD CAP Poor health conditions create huge inefficient demand on resources - Misuse of Hospitals and Emergency Rooms Health Challenges

87  Of the 80 largest US metro areas, only Tulsa and Wichita lack ALL the components of a traditional public healthcare safety net infrastructure for indigent care. No public or university hospital. No comprehensive sponsorship of specialties/sub- specialties at medical schools. No hospital receiving Medicaid Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) funds for indigent care served. No hospital specifically organized and tasked to provide indigent care. No statewide support of Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs); only one fully functional FQHC in Tulsa. Lapolla, Health Policy Analysis of the Tulsa Metropolitan Area, OU Center for Health Policy, 2005 THD – Patel/Woodruff 9/05 Overall lack of health care resources for indigent care No Local Traditional Safety Net Health Challenges

88 Higher poverty correlates closely with higher percentages of uninsured and Medicaid recipients. Oklahoma ranks 40 th in the United Health Foundation’s state index rankings, but we are right on the average for states with similar levels of poverty. Poverty may be the greatest single determining factor in a state’s health rank accounting for almost 55% of the variance explanation. Generally, states with low poverty levels can expect to achieve higher health ranking without regard to other public health measures. THD, 2005; United Health Foundation State Health Rankings, 2004 OK The Influence of Poverty on Health Rankings Health Challenges

89 Poor Human Conditions Impact Crime and Growing Incarcerations ~Trends greatly affected by substance abuse

93 Overall Progress in Human Development is Tied to Educational Success ~From preschool through post secondary education

94 Educational Attainment

95

96 Educational Success

97 Growing importance of coordination among higher education institutions to promote system efficiency System Overview The State Regents prescribe academic standards of higher education, determine functions and courses of study at state colleges and universities, grant degrees, recommend to the state Legislature budget allocations for each college and university, and recommend proposed fees within limits set by the Legislature. A primary goal for the State Regents is “System Efficiency” especially focused on reduced program duplication. Tulsa Community College provides the lower level (Freshman & Sophomore) courses in Tulsa County and articulates agreements with all state supported four-year colleges and universities in Oklahoma for students wishing to pursue a bachelor’s degree. Tulsa Community College provides educational opportunities that can lead to Associate Degrees in Arts, Science, or Applied Science and to Certificates of Achievement. Educational Success

119 Impact of Adult Literacy & Education Levels on Children As the educational level of adults improves, so does their children's success in school; helping low-literate adults improve their basic skills has a direct and measurable impact on both the education and quality of life of their children. Children of adults who participate in literacy programs improve their grades and test scores, improve their reading skills and are less likely to drop out. Children's literacy levels are strongly linked to educational level of their parents, especially their mothers. Children of parents who are unemployed and have not completed high school are five times more likely to drop out than children of employed parents. Source: Oklahoma Literacy Resource Office. Adult Literacy & Education

120 Child Literacy

121 Child Abuse & Neglect in Oklahoma and Tulsa County Reports of child abuse and neglect have increased from 51,000 in 1997 to 61,610 in FY 2005 in Oklahoma (21% increase), and from 5,835 to 7,970 in Tulsa County (37% increase). Confirmed child neglect cases make up 2/3 of the confirmed cases. These types of cases increased 4% between 2000 and 2005. Overall, confirmed cases of abuse and neglect decreased by 21% between 2000 and 2005 in Tulsa County. In Oklahoma, 14.7 of every 1,000 children are victims of abuse and/or neglect. In Tulsa County, the rate is 7.9 of every 1,000 children (54% of the state rate). Oklahoma ranks #35 in the nation in the rate of children who are victims of abuse and/or neglect. Parents make up 74.3% of all perpetrators, followed by step-parents at 7%, “no relation” at 6.8%, and grandparents at 3.8%. Substance abuse is a major contributing factor to child neglect.
