CCTF:RFP\94COxPROF 940263 Page 3 CCTF CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION APPLICATION For WELD COUNTY HEALTH DEPARTMENT 1994-1995 Program description This proposal requests $23,035 to fund a primary prevention program in child abuse and neglect prevention. The program will be implemented by the Weld County Health Department (WCHD) and proposes to enhance the skills of community health nurses (CHN) in the identification of potential abuse/neglect risks among department clients. Nursing staff will be further trained to provide parenting skills intervention and to make appropriate referrals to existing community resources. Community Description and Need: Weld county is a rural, agricultural community covering 4,000 square miles. The 1990 census for the county was 131,821 with 32,948 individuals living in unincorporated areas. Ethnic distribution is 77% white, 21% Hispanic and 2% other. The average per capita income for Weld county is $14,230 compared to the state average of $17,682. Some 90% of WCHD clients are low income and 25% are Hispanic. Approximately 10,000 migrants move through the area each year. Health care is provided mainly by the two community Health Centers and the Health Department. The WCHD is a Public health agency serving all of Weld County from Erie to the Wyoming border. The agency has satellite sites outside of Greeley in 15 locations. Beginning in 1994 WCHD will increase the activity in 6 of these sites to provide monthly clinics and home visits to the most remote areas of the county. WCHD provides the following programs: Well Child Care, Family Planning, Prenatal care, Sexually Transmitted Disease treatment, Communicable Disease follow-up, Handicapped Children' Program, TB follow-up, and Well Adult care. The Family Planning program serves 1,600 women per year, 25% under the age of 20. The Prenatal Program serves 300 women per year, 25% to 35% of whom are teens. All prenatal clients receive intensive case management/home visitation. The Well Child program serves 600 clients per year. In 1994, WCHD will begin a Family Planning/Prenatal program for Monfort employees serving an estimated 600 women in one year's time. The Handicapped Children program serves 300 children per year with approximately 100 families receiving intensive case management. WCHD also houses University of Northern Colorado Nursing students. During their training, the students are available to do home visiting/parenting/resource identification on a volunteer basis for WCHD clients. The Nursing Director of the Health Department is the local volunteer contact for the Colorado Coalition for the Protection of Children's "Never Shake a Baby" campaign. When comparing live births and fertility rates, Weld County's rate in the 10 to 14 age group was 2.2/1000 women compared to the state rate of 0.8/1000. Weld County also had a 55/1000 women rate in the 15 to 19 year age group in comparison to the state rate of 54.3/1000 women. Live births by race/ethnicity of mother according to the 1990 census reveal that out of a total of 2202 births in Weld Page 4 940263 County, 762 (35%) were to mothers of Hispanic ethnicity. It is estimated that Weld County has 4000 children between the ages of 0 and 6 living in poverty. It is also estimated that 6% of children will have handicapping conditions. In the area of Child Protection, the Child Abuse Team reviewed 887 cases of reported abuse in 1992. It is estimated that this is only 1.3% of the actual cases occurring in Weld County. Rationale for Program: Research indicates that children with behavioral and developmental risks are at increased risk for abuse. Parents of these children who participate in some form of parenting training reported significant increases in their own sense of efficacy regarding parenting their children. In addition, they reported a decreases in their own depression and stress levels (Pisterman, 1992) . Barriers to participation in parenting training include: ability to pay, ability to provide or gain access to transportation, SES, single parent status (often with more than one child), and lacking a social support system (Grayson, et. al. , 1990) . Herrerias (1988) used a case management/in-home parenting education program to increase parenting skills and reduce risk among Hispanic women. The MADRE program found that in-home parenting lessons allowed for the development of trust between the mother and the provider. In addition, this strategy allowed for the identification of specific issues which could then be focused on. This strategy also allows for referral into formal educational courses such as ESL and GED programs and job training, and allowed for the provision of other support services such as nutritional education and transportation. Because WCHD provides services to a large number of the county's handicapped children as well as providing services to a significant number of at risk clients in both in-home and remote rural settings, the department is uniquely positioned to identify and reach families who would benefit from a primary child abuse prevention program. The population to be targeted for the WCHD child abuse prevention/education program will include the 400 women receiving prenatal services, the 100 families receiving services through the Handicapped children program, and other appropriate WCHD clients in the Well Child, Family Planning, Sexually Transmitted disease and Well Adult programs. This represents over 3,200 unduplicated WCHD clients each year. Program Goals and Objectives: I. Outcome: a. Reduce to less than 25.2 per 1,000 children, the incidence of maltreatment of children younger than age 18 (from Weld County Health Objectives for the Year 2000) . II. Impact: a. All members CHN staff will be trained to provide parenting skills training and to screen for and refer high risk clients to community resources by November 30, 1994. Page 5 940263 b. 60% of WCHD Child Health, Maternity, Family Planning and HCP intensive program clients will be screened for potential risk factors and referred to appropriate community resources for child abuse prevention by June 31, 1995. c. In follow-up assessment, the number of WCHD clients reporting an increased sense of efficacy in parenting will have increased by 40% by June 31, 1995. d. In follow-up assessment the number of WCHD clients able to identify parenting support and abuse prevention resources within the community will have increased by 60% by June 31, 1995. e. In follow-up assessment the number of WCHD clients describing appropriate strategies for positive parenting will have increased by 50% by June 31, 1995. Implementation Strategy: During the initial phase of the program, a .5 FTE Health Educator will be hired by the WCHD. The Health Educator will: • identify appropriate parenting curriculum (Parents as First Teachers, P.I.P.E. ) • provide training to WCHD staff to enhance their skills in: a) identification of high risk behavior; b) resource referral; c) behavior change and; d) parenting education. • develop a paper screen to help CHN staff in identification of at risk clients. • develop methodology for assessing change in knowledge, attitudes and beliefs of program participants. • review and/or develop community resource list for CHN staff to use in client referral. • work with referral agencies to develop method of tracking the number of referred clients actually entering community support services. • identify and/or develop educational materials relevant to the target population for use in in-home and clinical education During the implementation phase of the program CHN staff will: • perform risk screening on all HCP intensive program and prenatal clients to determine need for continued prevention intervention. • implement parenting education strategies as part of each home visit with HCP intensive program and Prenatal clients. • distribute appropriate educational materials and resources to WCHD clients. • refer clients identified as being at risk to other provider agencies for continued support and intervention. • follow-up with referred clients to reinforce recommendations for intervention. Evaluation: Program effectiveness will be assessed by the following measures: I a.

These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the County's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these general purpose financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of the Weld County Retirement Plan, which represent 77 percent and 89 percent, respectively, of the assets and revenue of the fiduciary fund type. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the Weld County Retirement Plan, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the general purpose financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall general purpose financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit and the report of other auditors provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of other auditors, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the County of Weld, Colorado as of December 31, 1992, and the results of its operations and cash flows of its proprietary fund types and nonexpendable trust funds for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the general purpose financial statements taken as a whole. The combining, individual fund and account group financial statements and schedules listed in the table of contents are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the general purpose financial statements of the County. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the general purpose financial statements and, in our opinion, which insofar as it relates to the Weld County Retirement Plan is based on the report of other auditors, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the general purpose financial statements taken as a whole.

As a recipient of federal and state financial assistance. the County also is responsible for ensuring that an adequate internal control structure is in place to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations related to those programs. This internal control structure is subject to periodic evaluation by management and external auditors. As a part of the County's single audit, described earlier, tests are made to determine the adequacy of the internal control structure, including that portion related to federal financial assistance programs, as well as to determine that the County has complied with applicable laws and regulations.. The results of the County's single audit for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1992 indicated no instances of material weaknesses in the internal control structure or significant violations of applicable laws and regulations.

(Qntnrabu Dlfeet°'March 7, 1994 80534 To the Colorado Children ' s Trust Fund (CCTF) Board, I wholeheartedly support the application by Weld County Health Department (WCHD) for funding from CCTF for training of community health nurses in the prevention of child abuse and neglect . Having obtained clinical experience at WCHD while working toward a degree, I was able to observe how much time is invested in every child at each well child check-up and would endorse this very opportunity to promote parenting skills that would help reduce the abuse/neglect that results when parents are poorly informed or inadequately supported in their difficult task of raising children. Having been a school nurse for 16 years, I see the results of child abuse and neglect and the impact it has on our student population; emotionally, physically, socially, and even mentally. If there is any way to reduce the dreadful effects of abuse and neglect, those methods should be employed . Having direct contact time with a parent whose child is the focus of that contact is an excellent opportunity to start that family on the journey of realizing that they have a child who needs constant nurturing and care. Helping the family know that there are numerous community resources to assist them in this journey may be a most valuable link to successful parenting and the prevention of child abuse and neglect. There is no doubt in my mind that if this preventive approach was provided to every family with newborns and young children by every health care provider in Weld County, that the abuse and neglect incidence in the county would be decreased dramatically. This proposal for reducing the incidence of maltreatment of children in Weld County will be effective because WCHD has discovered the secret to effective community nursing; taking the time to teach . And if WCHD can expand their services to include home visits to their high risk families, their teaching skills may be more readily applied to circumstances that are at the heart the problem; lack of knowledge, lack of coping, and the lack of support/resources . I trust CCTF will approve funding for WCHD ' s proposal for a half- time Health Educator who will train the WCHD ' s nursing staff and school health providers regarding prevention strategies as well as to provide one-to-one parenting skills development to WCHD clients .

It is vital for public health nurses to be in the field working with these families. The training element prepared in this grant initiative will allow public health to serve families in more depth. I fully support your effort in securing funds. As always we will continue to collaborate with support, identification and evaluation resources.

Your project proposal to reduce the risk of child abuse and neglect among Weld County Health Department clients is certainly needed in our community. It is an effort that we are concerned our students are sensitive to and can intervene with as well. I am excited at the opportunities for our senior baccalaureate nursing students to participate in your project. They can certainly teach clients appropriate parenting skills during home visits. They will be better able to assess clients at risk for child abuse and neglect through participation in your education programs. And significantly, as graduates, they will represent a significant cadre of nurses who have expertise in prevention of child abuse because of their clinical practicum at Weld County Health Department. Do let us know if you receive funding, so we can participate in the implementation. Sincerely, Sandra C.

Monfort Risk Management Healthy Moms. . .Babies. . .and Families Project, an initiative to offer risk assessment education, information, referral and support to women of child-bearing years and their families covered under the Monfort Health Plan, has an agreement with the Weld County Health Department to provide prenatal care to our employees who access their services for primary health care. This agency provides a high quality and reliable service that will be complemented by this new initiative. Should you fund the Weld County Health Department, it is our intent to fully use this service to enhance support to our high risk families. At this time, there is no similar service available to many of our families at risk for child abuse. The agencies who provide parenting services would be complemented by this additional source of primary prevention to decrease the incidence of poor parenting. I encourage your funding of the Weld County Health Department to make possible this much needed component of care to their clients. It will add a greatly needed service for families in the Greeley area. Sincz , L/' C� Patricia A. Campbell Project Director Monfort, Inc. /kr 9410263 f !'' , mEmoRAnDu 1 1119€.
