MISSION

VISION

To be the primary community solutions leader for human services.

United Way of Rutherford and Cannon Counties is f ighting for a community where every person- no matter their background, their abilities, or their zip code- has an equal chance at a bright future. We are the hand raisers, the game changers. We are the problem solvers for those issues facing our community that are diff icult to face and too hard to ignore. No matter the obstacle, we surround our community’s most critical problems and we f ight. We f ight for the health, education, and f inancial stability of every person in our community. Why? Because we know that change begins when we Live United, and that building a better tomorrow starts today.

COLLECTIVE IMPACT TRANSFORMATION

The goal-setting process was overseen by a local task force representing the many different voices of this community. This council of volunteers, convened and supported by United Way of Rutherford and Cannon Counties, met regularly since October 2018 to adopt meaningful, measurable, and clear goals.

A cornerstone of this process was community conversations held with over 110 people and 417 responses to an online survey. We asked people three questions:

Additional volunteer groups assessed community needs and aspirations. Using local data, input from the community conversations and surveys, and strategies that have worked in communities like ours, these volunteers recommended goals to the board of directors that were unanimously adopted on June 13, 2019.

WHAT WILL OUR COMMUNITY LOOK LIKE IN 2030?Children will lead our community tomorrow. Ensuring their healthy development is essential. When a community opens pathways to health, everyone benef its. As people become more f inancially stable, they are able to take care of basic needs like shelter, food, and medical care not only for themselves, but for their families.

While Rutherford and Cannon Counties are a great place to live and work, not everyone is doing well. Too many kids start school already behind their peers, too many people cannot afford their basic necessities, including housing, and too many people are dying early. The consequences of these lost opportunities are staggering – both economically and socially.

We can do better. We must do better. If we all work together toward a shared vision and engage new voices, we can make long-lasting change in this community. Our community.

Collective impact’s vision is that Rutherford and Cannon Counties are inclusive, caring, and collaborative communities that focus their resources strategically so that everyone grows and prospers through enhanced educational opportunities, f inancial stability, and healthy living.

2018-2019 ANNUAL REPORT

A HEALTHY COMMUNITYA community is only as healthy as the people who call it home. With your help, we expand access to quality, affordable care, give parents the tools they need to raise healthy children, and provide individuals and families the resources to improve both their physical and mental health. Programs include the Mental Health Action Initiative and FamilyWize. We also work with 34 partner programs to equip children and families with the education and resources to maintain healthy living.

HEALTH & WELLNESS STARTS WITH OPPORTUNITYWhen it comes to supporting healthy behaviors, access to services and education go hand in hand. Just ask the Byron family.

When Jason Byron started school, it was more challenging than his mother had imagined. Her eldest son had no issue starting school, but Jason was struggling. He was showing extreme anxiety about attending school and would cry in the mornings and refuse to enter the building. He was also exhibiting extreme social anxiety and would not speak to or even wave to most people outside of his family, even people that he knew.

When Jason started the f irst grade, he began seeing a counselor at his school: a United Way program that supports young people through the social and emotional barriers they face at no cost to families. The counselor and Jason met weekly and worked on anxiety coping skills and social skills. Jason started out fairly quiet during sessions but became more talkative as the weeks progressed. The frequency of his crying episodes decreased signif icantly and he was regularly entering school without refusing to come in. Right before winter break, his mother approached Jason’s counselor to let her know that a few days prior she had witnessed him walk up to a different teacher in the building that was not his own, and initiate a conversation with her. Her jaw dropped to the floor when she saw her child, who would hardly look at a stranger, start a conversation of his own volition with an adult. The change was happening, and Jason would be okay.

Many children in our local school districts face social and emotional barriers to success. And too many of those children cannot access mental health and counseling services in the community, either because of a lack of those services or lack of accessibility due to transportation or parent barriers. Providing quality mental health and counseling services during the day in our schools helps to eliminate those barriers, and improves the lives of children in our community.

IN 2018-2019$1,083,819.90saved through FamilyWize prescription discount program for local residents on their prescription medications, preventing them fromhaving to choose between groceries, utilities, or medication.

1,095CHILDRENreceived crisis intervention counseling services for assistance in dealing with a crisis episode such as suicide ideation, anxiety, conflict, etc.

in nonprof it, education, healthcare, government, and higher education sectors mobilized around the Mental Health Action Initiative to enhance the delivery of services related to mental health in our community.

A HEALTHY COMMUNITY MEANS WE ALL PROSPER. HEALTH IS MORE THAN JUST PHYSICAL, IT’S MENTAL AND EMOTIONAL.”

2018-2019 ANNUAL REPORT

AN EDUCATED COMMUNITYEveryone deserves a strong start in life. We make that possible by empowering parents to support their children, improving the quality of their learning environments, and offering solutions to challenges outside the classroom. A community is only as healthy as the people who call it home. Programs include Books from Birth and Stop the Summer Slide: Literacy Day of Action. We also work with 16 partner programs to help students attain educational success from kindergarten to graduation.

180,000+ books were distributed locally to children through Books from Birth and Imagination Library.

92 ADULTLEARNERScompleted adult literacy education classes that allowed them to become more productive and active in the community. One in six Rutherford County adults struggle with literacy.

95% OF YOUTHin Rutherford County graduated high school as compared to the statewide graduation rate of 89%.

ELIMINATING OBSTACLES TO EDUCATIONEducation breeds opportunity. Even for the generations long removed from traditional K-12 school.

Marshall and his wife attended a marriage retreat to celebrate their 50th year together. At the close of the retreat, he was asked to write a letter to his wife describing his love for her and their life together. Although he knew the words he wanted his wife to read, he was unable to write them or read the letter his wife had written him.

At age 73, Marshall courageously stepped through the door of a United Way partner program and asked for help. Marshall, a successful building contractor and father to a college graduate, tested on a second grade reading level. After eight months of hard work with a tutor, Marshall retested at the f ifth grade level, is now working towards his GED, and constantly writes love notes to his wife.

It is estimated that one in six adults in Rutherford County struggles with literacy. United Way and other partner programs are f ighting to shift the odds so today’s learners and tomorrow’s leaders can build a better community. With an approach to education that spans from cradle to career, we’re ensuring every child gets a strong start in life, teenagers have the tools to learn and grow, young people thrive in the job market, and adults, like Marshall, have access to tools to gain the basic skills they deserve.

A FINANCIALLY STABLE COMMUNITYAll people should have the opportunity to improve their economic status. We f ight to give people the tools to better manage their money, get on solid f inancial ground, and f ind potential for advancement. Programs include the 211 Help Hotline and Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Free Tax Preparation program. We also work with 12 partner programs to help individuals increase their earning potential and foster long-term f inancial stability.

$2.2 MILLIONin local economic impact was delivered through the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program.

4,059referrals made through 211 forindividuals seeking assistance in Rutherford and Cannon Counties in the last year. More than 50% of the needs requested were related to housing, utility bill assistance, and income support.

26,679 MEALSwere provided to low-income individuals by agencies across the counties as tracked by CharityTracker.

WORKING HARD, BUT STRUGGLING TO SURVIVEFor far too many families, the cost of living outpaces what they earn. Some households struggle to manage even their most basic needs - housing, food, transportation, child care, health care, and necessary technology. ALICE, an acronym for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed, is a new way of def ining and understanding the struggles of households like these that earn above the Federal Poverty Level, but not enough to afford a bare-bones household budget. One of these people experiencing the hardships of living below the ALICE threshold is Heather.

Heather recently found a job cleaning houses. Four times a week from 6:30 am to 7:00 pm, Heather cleans houses. This is enough money to get by if she were alone, but her increase in income means less assistance with food stamp programs. Because of this, Heather and her three daughters often f ind themselves at a United Way partner program that provides meals. "Even though you work, you still have bills to pay and mouths to feed," she explains, "so this helps to get me through."When funds run short, Heather is often forced to make impossible choices, such as deciding between quality child care or paying the rent, f illing a prescription or f ixing the car. These short-term decisions have long-term consequences not only for ALICE families, but for all of us.

It is estimated that 36% of people in Rutherford and Cannon counties live below the ALICE threshold. ALICE is your child care worker, the cashier at your supermarket, the gas station attendant, your waitress, a home health aide, an off ice clerk. ALICE cannot always pay the bills, has little or nothing in savings, and is forced to make tough choices such as deciding between quality child care or paying the rent. One unexpected car repair or medical bill can push f inancially strapped families over the edge.

United Way partner programs like these ensure that people like Heather have access to food, making those decisions a little less impossible.

THE VOLUNTEER IMPACTVolunteers ensure impact. From our board of directors, to our event volunteers, our committee and task force members to our interns, the volunteers in our community continuously show up and put in the work to make our world better for everyone. The individuals mentioned on this page are just a glimpse at the volunteer force in our community. This year alone, 931 volunteers donated over 5,000 hours in volunteer labor. That’s how change happens in our community. That’s how bold goals are met and lives are changed. That’s what it looks like to Live United. That’s how we win.

Our volunteer force is organized online through Volunteer Connect, a United Way run interactive platform for volunteers and nonprof it organizations to connect and serve their community together. Through Volunteer Connect, you can sign up, create a prof ile, and select the causes and interests you are most passionate about. Our system will then match you with opportunities that meet those interests.It’s the easiest way to f ind opportunities in our community to support agencies who need you most.

Volunteer Connect hosts ongoing and one-time local volunteer opportunities, but it’s also where we recruit volunteers for our Days of Action volunteer events. Days of Action are unparalleled, community-changing volunteer opportunities that highlight United Way’s work in the community. We have four Days of Action events that always need volunteers. Learn more about our Days of Action on page 12.

United Way's Catalyst Program is a nine-month program that helps train nonprofit volunteer leaders of tomorrow. Its mission is to connect and develop business leaders in the community to become engaged in social responsibility through the means of advocacy, giving, and volunteerism. The program aims to meet the needs of society today, while proactively preparing for a better tomorrow by putting measures in place for future generations.

Every year, thousands of people across Tennessee contact 211 for assistance. This year alone more than 4,000 requests were made in Rutherford and Cannon counties. More than 50% of the needs requested were related to housing, utility bill assistance, and income support.

Ensuring every person has access to this critical resource exemplifies United Way’s fight for the health, education, and financial stability of every person in every community. By connecting people in need with the best resources available to them, 211 helps make the social services ecosystem more efficient and effective so resources can go further.

The 211 Helpline is a 24/7, 365-day information and referral helpline that provides resources to cover basic needs. 211 specialists can connect you with a wide range of resources and services. Contact 211 today to get expert, caring help with food, health care, housing and utilities payment assistance, employment services, veteran services, childcare, crisis and emergency counseling, disaster assistance, and more.
