Eaton Community Health

Successful expansion of the hscc initiative (called humanserv), in collaboration with the eaton county human services collaborative council (hscc). During this fiscal year, eaton community health served as a catalyst and convener for the collaborative, which now has three action teams and is planning for surveys of front-line workers and a second large scale resident survey related to access to resources in the county. Eaton community health continues to provide grants for a consultant and coordinator for the process.

Eaton community health successfully expanded streetheart, eaton community health's resident engagement program, designed to improve the health and vitality within the county, one neighborhood at a time. The pilot neighborhood work has expanded for the 300 households. The streetheart team now includes a neighbor leadership program that includes six block leaders in a growing resident advisory group. The second neighborhood well-being assessment was completed. Streetheart also facilitated and funded a successful minigrant, engaging students and teachers in the early elementary school with residents in the senior apartments located in the neighborhood.
