BACKGROUND: In late 2019, Cardinal Innovations Healthcare, the designated Managed Care Organization (MCO) for Orange County, began to restructure how regional and community needs and issues are communicated to the Cardinal Innovations Board of Directors. The restructuring involved broadening the membership of the existing regional Community Boards to create Regional Health Councils. Orange County is part of the Central Regional Health Council along with Alamance, Caswell, Chatham, and Person counties. Regional Health Councils are responsible for developing and approving the Regional Health Assessment and Regional Health Improvement Plan, providing input on Community Reinvestment Initiative projects, and creating a unified approach to advising the Cardinal Innovations Board of Directors on operations and services in the region. The members of the Regional Health Councils are appointed by the Cardinal Innovations Board of Directors. The restructuring effort also broadened the membership of the existing Community Partners advisory board to create Community Advisory Councils which are unique to each County. The Community Advisory Councils are responsible for serving as a conduit for residents to ask questions and raise concerns about services provided by Cardinal Innovations and to provide a link back to the community to aid in achieving each Regional Health Council’s visions and guiding principles. Community Advisory Council members are appointed by the Board of County Commissioners. Cardinal Innovations opened and managed an online application process for Community Advisory Council members. Twelve applications were received, and Cardinal Innovations has requested action by the Board of Commissioners to appoint nine individuals. The application materials for each of the applicants is attached. 1 FINANCIAL IMPACT: There is no financial impact associated with this item.

Yes Work Experience: Worked with children from K- 12 with different needs. First job was with young adults who had committed crimes and were living in a contained school. It’s focus was education and emotional control. Then I worked with young children with severe cognitive disabilities. These children lived in foster group homes, but were educated in the public school, this was in Compton CA. The classes moved to another area outside of LA, where I continued as a classroom teacher with the same population. My next employment was with the recreational department of Pasadena CA where I worked helping with life and social skills in a day treatment program for adults. In Chapel Hill I worked in a self contained classroom for elementary age children with autism. This classroom was at a public school and children were mainstreamed for classes as determined by their IEPs. I then switched into a position as a autism support consultant for autistic children in the regular education program. This position was designed to support the students, teachers and parents. I served K-9 and also supported pre-school students when needed. I retired in 2018. 7 Page 2 of 2 rev. 20190926 Education (for demographic purposes.

My years of working with young adults and children has given me an opportunity to see what works and what needs still exist. The information flow/ support for immigrants and people with less economic means is not a cohesive system, leaving them unaware of the supports that do exist. My years working in the school system also exposed weak to non-existent support for mental health issues. This area of need seems to have increased without a plan for how to obtain services, or enough well planned effective services. As we see throughout this country our inability to effectively address these needs has substantial costs to our society. We can often identify children needing help at a young age, but without resources there is little we can do to truly help. My knowledge of the holes that exist and ideas of how we can help support these children and their families is why I wish to be on the CAC.
