Examples of WellFlorida's Clients and Services:
Hernando County:
WellFlorida conducted a comprehensive health needs assessment which resulted in the formation of a Heart Disease Task Force, a community action plan and a mini-grant program. WellFlorida was also commissioned to evaluate the need for a federally qualified community health center (FQHC), and subsequently write the grant for it.
The grant was awarded to the Hernando County Health Department. They will receive approximately $650,000 a year for three years to implement and operate a community health center in Brooksville.
Marion County:
WellFlorida worked with Marion County on its Safe and Drug Free Schools program, including: assisted public schools with preparing its applications to draw state and federal Safe and Drug Free Schools funding; conducted needs assessments in order to create work plans targeted to address real needs; participated in the development and monitoring in the school system's mentoring program for middle school students; conducts the annual evaluation of Marion County's Safe and Drug Free Schools Program
WellFlorida's evaluation process for Marion County's Safe and Drug FreeSchools program has been cited by the Florida Department of Education as exemplary and a model for other school districts to follow
Health Departments of Dixie, Gilchrist and Levy Counties:
WellFlorida conducted a Tri-County health needs assessment as an initial step in the Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnership (MAPP) process
WellFlorida identified resources and gaps within each of the communities, allowing the Health Departments to improve access to healthcare and decrease health outcome disparities within their rural areas.
