This proposal describes an Accountable Care Community (ACC) that will increase economic stability in Fayetteville, North Carolina (NC) to improve the health of Cumberland County (CC) residents. Economic stability is an important social determinant of health. Fayetteville has a poverty prevalence of 19.2% compared to 17% and 13% in CC and NC, respectively. Poverty has a negative impact on citizens’ health contributing to CC ranking 73rd among NC counties in health outcomes. This proposal describes a multigenerational approach to decrease poverty by providing workforce development opportunities and increased funding to expand Early Head Start (EHS) for families in Fayetteville. Both Workforce development and EHS correlate to improved health outcomes by enabling parents to increase their incomes and allowing children to build strong socioemotional skills and improve academic achievement, respectively. This ACC entails an interdisciplinary partnership with the CC Health Department acting as the backbone organization. |
