Summary and Recommendations
Summary and Recommendations - short:• Evidence of Capacity Building in Youth Development. Community Impact
in strong in Early Childhood and Health with potential and perhaps evidence for transformational change, particularly if scale up continues and data support continues showing that community benefits are maintained.
• The community was enhanced by significant funding acquired for Health and Community development projects.
• To ensure transformational change for the Avondale community, strategies will need to be increasingly comprehensive to address complex community issues. Services will need to be further integrated to include schools (youth development), government, and social service work. Finally, funds will need to be leveraged to broaden the potential for impact.
Summary and Recommendations: Avondale
Summary and Recommendations - Full:
• Evidence of Capacity Building in Youth Development and Workforce Development. AYC has developed a database to track the academic and vocational outcomes of the 100+ youth who participate in the program each year. Evidence of Community Impact is strong in Early Childhood as ECS as gone from serving 23% to 62% of the eligible population in Avondale over the 4 years of place matters and the program is now serving fathers. ECS Program outcomes are also met each year. Evidence of Community Impact, with the potential for Transformational Change strong in the area of Health, particularly if scale up continues and data shows that health and community benefits are maintained long-term. A positive sign is that crime is decreasing relative to other neighborhoods
• Avondale was enhanced by significant funding acquired for Health and Community development projects, including a $625,000 grant that was awarded by the CDC to the Center for Closing the Health Gap for Obesity Prevention as part of a larger 6.7m Hamilton County collaborative and by a $100,000 grant from Chase bank to support the St. Michael’s project.
• To ensure transformational change for the Avondale community, strategies will need to be increasingly comprehensive to address complex community issues. Services will need to be further integrated to include schools (youth development), government, and social service work. Finally, additional funds will need to be leveraged to broaden the potential for community impact.

Summary and Recommendations
Summary and Recommendations - Short:• Positive and steady progress in Housing/Neighborhood
Development, Community Engagement, and Youth Development.
• Models are sustainable but scale-up is needed to ensure broader community impact.
• Initiatives are also focused and increasing collaborative to integrate schools and government.
• Recommendations are to strengthen health initiatives and outcomes for early childhood and financial stability.
• Also consider aligning goals to funder priorities to increase sustainability without compromising CGN priorities.
Summary and Recommendations: CovingtonSummary and Recommendations - Full:
• Evidence of Capacity Building is noted in Community Learning Center programs where parent and youth involvement have increased significantly and where academic outcomes are also improving. Community Impact/Transformational Change is noted in Housing programs where the CGN rehabbed properties increase neighborhood property values and contribute to the city’s taxes. Other work with the city and policy strategies are noted, including canvassing 700 homes in to increase energy efficiency in collaboration with the Greater Cincinnati Energy Alliance Community. Finally, Covington’s creation and growth of resident lead organizations and mini-grants programs are a Model for promoting community engagement in other neighborhoods.
• Models are sustainable but scale-up is needed for some initiatives to ensure broader community impact. To increase the potential for scale up and sustainability, CGN should also consider aligning goals to funder priorities without compromising priorities.
• Recommendations are to strengthen health initiatives and outcomes for early childhood and financial stability which will create a broader service model for transformational change. A second recommendation is to define and document best practices as they emerge to ensure replication in other communities.

Summary & Recommendations: Price HillSummary and Recommendations - Full:
• Santa Maria/PHW is coordinating a number of initiatives in the areas, with Community Impact and Transformational Change in early childhood, housing, and community engagement. As an example of transformational change in Early Childhood, Santa Maria is the convener of the monthly PH Early Childhood Meetings while also leading work on the TECCS Project, the Parenting Our Preschoolers Project, ECS, coordinating KRAL assessments in 5 Parochial schools, serving on the Strive Early Childhood Success Network, and collaborating on the SPARK Project, Strengthening Families, and work in 5 CPS public schools and linking outcomes when possible to KRA-L data . Housing and Community Engagement strategies are similarly comprehensive. Santa Maria’s/PHW’s ability to engage volunteers, partners, as well as to engage funders and leverage dollars in each of the focus areas has been significant.
• Price Hill’s Center for Financial Stability and health/wellness initiatives are building capacity and have achieved their initial set of goals while working on a number of policy issues aimed at improving quality of life for residents in Price Hill. These initiatives will require Santa Maria/PHW to leverage additional resources without compromising existing programs.
• Recommendations are to strengthen outcomes and partnerships in the area of Youth Development, which are less defined relative to Early Childhood. It will also be important for Price Hill to continue to strengthen alignment in new programmatic areas and, in areas of strength, to define and demonstrate effective and replicable models that can be spread to other communities.
