COMMUNITY PROJECT FUNDING/CONGRESSIONALLY DIRECTED SPENDING - CONSTRUCTION - THE BANGOR REGION YMCA PROPOSES TO BUILD A COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CENTER AS PART OF A NEW $52.7 MILLION YMCA FOR EASTERN MAINE. AS THE MOST RURAL STATE IN THE U.S., MAINE FACES SIGNIFICANT CHALLENGES IN DELIVERING ADEQUATE, AFFORDABLE HEALTHCARE TO ITS CITIZENS. MORE THAN 61% OF MAINERS LIVE IN RURAL AREAS AND ARE FACED WITH OVERWHELMING BARRIERS TO HEALTHCARE ACCESS, PARTICULARLY LOW INCOME, UNINSURED, OLDER ADULT, AND MEDICAID ENROLLED RESIDENTS, MANY OF WHOM LIVE IN THE RURAL COMMUNITIES SERVED BY THE Y. THESE CHALLENGES ARE COMPOUNDED BY THE FACT THAT MAINE HAS THE HIGHEST PERCENTAGE IN THE NATION OF PEOPLE AGED 65 AND OLDER WITH ONE THIRD OF THEM LIVING ALONE, A LOWER MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME COMPARED TO THE NATIONAL AVERAGE, AND CHRONIC SHORTAGES IN ITS PROFESSIONAL HEALTHCARE WORKFORCE. MOREOVER, SEVERAL OF MAINE’S LARGEST HEALTHCARE ORGANIZATIONS RECENTLY POSTED MULTI-MILLION-DOLLAR LOSSES, HIGHLIGHTING THE FRAGILITY OF THE STATE’S HEALTHCARE DELIVERY SYSTEM. AS MAINE EMERGES FROM THE PANDEMIC, LOCAL RESIDENTS HAVE EXPRESSED SERIOUS CONCERNS ABOUT AN ONGOING MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS, CHALLENGES IN ACCESSING HEALTHCARE, GROWING POVERTY RATES, INCREASING SUBSTANCE USE AND ALCOHOL USE, AND LACK OF TRANSPORTATION AS BARRIERS TO GETTING AND STAYING HEALTHY. THE Y’S GOAL IS TO ADDRESS EASTERN MAINE'S URGENT HEALTHCARE NEEDS BY HOUSING MEDICAL, MENTAL HEALTH, AND OTHER HEALTH SERVICES UNDER ONE ROOF AT ITS NEW COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CENTER, EXPANDING ITS EVIDENCE-BASED CHRONIC DISEASE PROGRAMS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE REGION’S MAJOR HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS, AND PROVIDING A WIDE VARIETY OF AFFORDABLE, ACCESSIBLE HEALTH PROGRAMMING THAT ADDRESSES THE COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH NEEDS OF RURAL AND URBAN MAINERS OF ALL AGES AND ECONOMIC BACKGROUNDS. SPECIFICALLY, THIS $5 MILLION FY24 CDS REQUEST – TO BE MATCHED IN NON-FEDERAL FUNDS BY THE YMCA – WOULD HELP FUND A $21 MILLION COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CENTER AS PART OF A NEW YMCA FOR 152,300 PEOPLE, MANY RURAL, OLDER, AND LOW-TO-MODERATE INCOME, LIVING IN 23 CITIES AND RURAL TOWNS IN EASTERN MAINE. LOCATING THE COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH CENTER IN A NEW YMCA MEANS ITS USERS WILL HAVE OPPORTUNITIES TO CONNECT WITH THE Y’S OTHER PROGRAMS – FROM INFANT, EARLY EDUCATION AND SCHOOL-AGE CARE TO A COMMUNITY FOOD PANTRY AND PROGRAMS TO ADDRESS THE PUBLIC HEALTH CRISES OF LONELINESS AND ISOLATION – ENSURING A CROSS-SECTOR EXPOSURE THAT IS ESSENTIAL TO A MAINER’S LIFETIME HEALTH AND PROSPERITY. THIS PROJECT ALIGNS WITH HRSA REQUIREMENTS FOR A CDS REQUEST BECAUSE IT IS FOR THE COST OF CONSTRUCTION FOR FACILITIES FOR HEALTH AND PRIORITIZES IMPROVING HEALTHCARE IN RURAL AREAS, PARTICULARLY AROUND MENTAL HEALTHCARE SERVICES, HEALTH PROMOTION AND EDUCATION, AND CHRONIC DISEASE MANAGEMENT.

MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE DISORDER TREATMENT SERVICES, INCLUDING WRAPAROUND SERVICES. - THE GREATER SCRANTON YMCA UNDERSTANDS MENTAL HEALTH AND THE RISK FOR SUBSTANCE ABUSE ARE DIRECTLY AFFECTED BY LIMITED RESOURCES, INCREASED SOCIAL ISOLATION AND EXTREME ECONOMIC CIRCUMSTANCES. DURING THIS EXTRAORDINARY PUBLIC HEALTH CRISIS AS THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC PRESSES ON, THE YMCA IS HERE AND THE NEED FOR MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE SERVICES ARE GREAT. THROUGH COLLABORATING TO PROVIDE SERVICES TO CHILDREN, ADULTS, OLDER ADULTS AND FAMILIES, YMCAS ACROSS OUR REGION WILL WORK COLLABORATIVELY TO MAKE A LASTING, PROFOUND IMPACT ON THE MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE EMERGENCY WE ARE FACING THROUGH ITS PROGRAM TITLED “YMCA’S MENTAL HEALTH SUBSTANCE AND USE DISORDER TREATMENT SERVICES, INCLUDING WRAPAROUND SERVICES.” THE GREATER SCRANTON YMCA, WILKES-BARRE FAMILY YMCA, GREATER PITTSTON YMCA, FREELAND YMCA, GREATER CARBONDALE YMCA, AND WAYNE COUNTY YMCA, WHICH ARE LOCATED IN WAYNE, LACKAWANNA, AND LUZERNE COUNTIES AND ALSO SERVE RESIDENTS OF PIKE COUNTY, WILL SERVE AS SAFE, WELCOMING SPACES FOR COMMUNITY MEMBERS OF ALL AGES AND SOCIOECONOMIC BACKGROUNDS - BOTH YMCA MEMBERS AND NON-MEMBERS - TO CONVENE TO GROW STRONGER IN MIND AND BODY. YMCA PROGRAMS WILL PROMOTE THE PREVENTION/TREATMENT OF MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS AND RECOVERY SERVICES, AS WELL AS WORK TO PREVENT THE ONSET OF DRUG USE AND ALCOHOL AND TOBACCO USE AMONG CHILDREN. THE GREATER SCRANTON YMCA IS THE LEAD YMCA FOR THIS PROJECT. THE PROGRAM DIRECTOR WILL PROVIDE OVERSIGHT AT ALL PARTICIPATING YMCAS, WITH THE PROGRAM COORDINATOR AT EACH Y DELIVERING THE PROGRAM. THE YMCAS INCLUDED IN THIS COLLABORATIVE ARE COMMITTED TO STRENGTHENING OUR COMMUNITIES. THE YMCAS SERVE MORE THAN 30,000 INDIVIDUALS ANNUALLY, MANY OF WHOM WERE FACING MENTAL HEALTH/SUBSTANCE ABUSE ISSUES BEFORE THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC; NOW THOSE ISSUES ARE MAGNIFIED. ALTHOUGH OPEN TO ALL COMMUNITY MEMBERS, THE YMCAS WILL SPECIFICALLY TARGET LOW-INCOME, UNDERSERVED COMMUNITY MEMBERS WHO MAY OTHERWISE NOT HAVE ACCESS TO NEEDED SERVICES, OR WHO MAY DESIRE ALTERNATIVE SERVICE OPTIONS. RESEARCH SHOWS PREVENTATIVE SERVICES CAN REDUCE HOSPITALIZATION RATES AND MEDICAL EXPENSES, LEADING TO SAVINGS FOR TAXPAYERS. ADDITIONALLY, THE YMCAS WILL LEASE VEHICLES, ENSURING PROGRAM STAFF CAN REACH UNDERSERVED AND LOW-INCOME COMMUNITIES. THROUGH THE MENTAL HEALTH SUBSTANCE AND USE DISORDER TREATMENT SERVICES PROJECT, THE YMCAS WILL REDUCE RISK FACTORS FOR LATER ALCOHOL AND DRUG ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS AMONGST CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS; INCREASE FAMILY BONDING, PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT, POSITIVE PARENTING SKILLS, POSITIVE COMMUNICATION AND FAMILY ORGANIZATION; INCREASE ADULTS’ CAPACITY TO MANAGE HIGH STRESS SITUATIONS THAT MAY LEAD TO SUBSEQUENT MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS AND THE RISK FOR SUBSTANCE ABUSE; AND WILL PARTNER WITH ONE PUBLIC RELATIONS AGENCY TO LEAD A COMMUNITY AWARENESS CAMPAIGN WITH THE GOAL OF ENSURING COMMUNITY MEMBERS LIVING IN THE COUNTIES SERVED BY THE YMCAS ARE AWARE OF THE AVAILABILITY OF THE PROGRAM. THE YMCAS WILL COLLECTIVELY OFFER UP TO 17 CLASSES EACH WEEK FOCUSING ON SUBSTANCE USE PREVENTION AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES. EXAMPLES OF CLASSES INCLUDE: ART THERAPY, MUSIC THERAPY, YOGA, MINDFULNESS & MEDITATION, STRETCHING, WALKING/RUNNING, NUTRITION & COOKING THERAPY.
