SANTA FE

The groundbreaking 100% Santa Fe initiative ensures that all families in the county have access to the ten vital services for surviving and thriving.

The truth is simple. The 100% Santa Fe initiative, a program of NMSU’s Anna, Age Eight Institute, provides Santa Fe County with a collaborative process for transforming under-resourced communities into fully-resourced environments, creating local access to services described in the book 100% Community: Ensuring ten vital services for surviving and thriving.

We know the challenges and how to fix them. All that’s lacking is the buy-in to make the health, safety, and education of 100% of Santa Fe’s and all of New Mexico’s children and students the number one priority.

What determines our health?

The 100% Santa Fe initiative identifies the adverse social determinants of health in the form of families’ lack of access to vital services. These services, such as medical and behavioral healthcare, determine our quality of life with the capacity to prevent adverse childhood experiences, trauma, substance use disorders, and poor school achievement leading to a lack of job readiness. By guaranteeing services within Santa Fe County, we go upstream to prevent family involvement with child welfare, law enforcement, the courts, and emergency room care.

We’re ensuring ten vital services.

The goal of the 100% Santa Fe initiative is to remove the barriers preventing families, students, and children from accessing the ten vital services for surviving and thriving: medical and dental care, behavioral health care, food security programs, housing security programs, transportation to reach services, parents supports, early childhood learning programs, fully-resourced community schools, youth mentor programs, and job training.

WHY SERVICES ARE OUT OF REACH

When people in Santa Fe County say, “We refer families to services,” how do they know the services actually exist?

County stakeholders, including all local elected officials, can learn which services are easily available by surveying residents. Our 100% Santa Fe survey asks parents, students, and elders to what degree they can access support services and what the barriers to services might be.

Our goal is to ensure that 100% of families and community members in Santa Fe County have access to ten vital services, promoting the health, safety, and resilience of all county residents.

A SOLUTION

We’re creating 100% Family Centers.

The 100% Santa Fe initiative county surveys reveal many barriers family members face when seeking services. The initiative addresses all barriers to ten family services by building the 100% Family Center: One Stop Service Hubs and community schools as 100% Service Hubs to increase access to all ten vital services through onsite, web-based, and navigator-supported linking to service providers. With one-stop-service hubs, we can confidently say, “We’re referring families to services.”

THE 100% SANTA FE INITIATIVE TEAM

COUNTY STAKEHOLDERS

The local initiative is a collaborative effort, with community members at its core, to create a county where all children, students, and families have access to ten essential services for surviving and thriving. This vision is realized through the active engagement of local innovators, leaders in local governments, and family-serving organizations. The initiative is designed to develop programs, policies, and funding strategies to enhance service access, which may involve the establishment of community-based and school-based one-stop service hubs. For more information, contact us.

We are currently updating the County Stakeholders team list. Feel free to contact us with any questions.

INSTITUTE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TEAM

The local initiative is part of the university’s statewide strategy to address significant barriers to healthcare, food, housing, and transportation security, among other vital services, that are jeopardizing the well-being of children, students, and families. The Anna, Age Eight Institute team supports local stakeholders in capacity building and fostering partnerships with state, county, city, and school governments, as well as philanthropy, to ensure residents’ access to the services that determine the quality of life—called the social determinants of health. Contact the institute at annaageeight@nmsu.edu.
