  17. Build upon Alignment Nashville’s Six Goals of Children’s Health to: Event Objectives • Determine the true emerging and declining health needs in Middle Tennessee for children & youth. • Prioritize the most significant growing and emerging needs and identify tactics to meet those needs. • Validate key features that strengthen program & service offerings to Nashville’s children & youth. • Document a process to continually assess how well health programs & services match community needs.

  18. Event AssumptionsTHE FOLLOWING ARE GIVEN FOR THIS EVENT • Our Rapid Design Session is about determining and prioritizing the health needs of children and youth in Nashville, ages 0-24. • We have the right people in attendance to make the decisions we need to make. • The session builds upon Alignment Nashville’s Six Health Goals for Nashville’s Children and Youth; the six health goals may not be changed as a result of this event. • Strategies to achieve the six goals may not be modified; however, teams may decide to identify additional strategies. • We will, as a group, identify children’s growing and emerging health needs in our community. • We will conclude with a talking points document that all participants will receive as a handout. • We will use a shared definition of health need. • Funding decisions are not tied to the short term outcomes of this event.

  19. Defining NEED • For the purposes of this Rapid Design Session, we will define need as either of the following: • A measurable lack of or decrease in something compared to the required or desired amount of that thing. • A measurable increase in something generally characterized as undesirable. NOTE: the desired/required amount may be defined by a government or other organization - but it is considered the "standard.“

  20. Expected Outcomes • A documented set of children’s health needs in our community. • Growing • Emerging • Maintaining • Diminishing • A refined set of strategies and tactics to address these needs. • A documented set of recommendations for: • Improved measurement criteria • Increased collaboration among agencies
