A Legacy of Community Change 2014 JCCI Annual Report


Dear Friends, It’s been an honor and a pleasure to lead JCCI this year. I feel grateful to so many for their advice, support, and guidance. First, thank you to our public, private, and nonprofit partners who continually support JCCI with financial resources, partnerships, and volunteer hours. Second, thank you to our volunteers! As a fellow volunteer and participant on the Children: 1,2,3 inquiry, I am pleased to see implementation of this important work is wrapping up. Our latest inquiry, Unlocking the Pieces, was an eye-opening examination of local policies and systems structuring mental health on the First Coast, a topic that touches all of us. Local media, JCCI volunteers, mental health professionals, and advocates made this year’s inquiry a record-breaking community project. More people got involved in this community discussion than I’ve ever seen. That means more people are invested in improvement of their community, especially the mental health of everyone living here. Special thanks to Baptist Health, the National Board of Certified Counselors, two of our partners making Unlocking the Pieces possible., and to the Florida Times-Union for their ongoing coverage of this issue. I am immensely proud of JCCI’s work as it evolves as an organization. This year saw unprecedented change as JCCI volunteers, Board, and staff rolled up their sleeves and produced a business plan for Community Works as well as a strategic plan for the next five years. In the near future, all of JCCI’s supporters and volunteers will enjoy the fruits of this work, which really means that Northeast Florida will continue to enjoy community improvements led by our citizens. It’s been happening for 40 years and will continue for generations to come. Warmest Regards,

Rabbi Joshua Lief

Dear Suppor ters, For a 40-year-old organization, we’re showing no signs of slowing down! Coming off the successful launch of JAX2025, we needed to quickly establish the implementation efforts for the visioning initiative and secure partnerships to ensure action, alignment, and sustainability. Thanks to you, the implementation of JAX2025 is far ahead of schedule – check out the reports on what we’ve started to call Actionville! We moved to our new home in the WJCT building this year and completed our most ambitious community inquiry to date, Unlocking the Pieces: Community Mental Health in Northeast Florida. Even with all the changes we experienced, this year JCCI was named as one of the Best Places to Work in Jacksonville by the Jacksonville Business Journal. I am honored by the privilege to work with all of our volunteers and incredible staff, and hope the next 40 years are as eventful and impactful as the past 40. Very truly yours, J. Benjamin Warner, President & CEO

A Legacy of Community Change


About JCCI Every day, JCCI is driven by the bold idea that together as a community we can build a better future. We bring people together to learn about our community, engage in problem solving, and act to make positive change. JCCI is headquartered in Northeast Florida, and works in the local area and beyond; from Walla Walla, Washington to Londrina, Brazil, our efforts in community engagement span six continents. Across the world, we understand that tracking only GDP as the measurement of success for nations misses the human side of progress. Quality of life has become the new standard benchmark for success, and we’re proud at JCCI to be recognized internationally for being the first organization to track community quality of life progress with an annual report card spanning 30 years. Beyond our global spectrum of work, we’ve always been committed to finding and tracking community-specific indicators here at home. These indicators tell us important aspects about our lives: how many students are graduating, if bicyclists are safe in our area, and how race relations are progressing. We bring people together to act on these indicators, and have created lasting community change through our inquiries and subsequent implementations. We have seen and documented real improvement in the quality of life in dozens of communities. At JCCI, we do the work that we do because we believe in community – and we believe in the power that the people who live in those communities have to shape their own future. Are you involved with JCCI yet? From Forward, our action program for new leaders, to JAX2025 and building a better future, there are always opportunities to get engaged. We are a volunteer-based organization and continually strive to involve you – the caring citizen, the community hero, the devoted doer – in our work celebrating our community and making it the place we all know it can be.

Won’t you join us?

JCCI’s Model for Community Change We are often asked why JCCI is so successful in creating positive change. Our reply? Our results come from two critical factors; first, the wonderful volunteers without whom we could not exist; and second, the process we follow, built around a research-tested and validated Model for Community Change.

Real change begins with a vision – what does success look like? Once we agree on that destination, we need to know how far away we are from our goal. We use our community indicators as navigation markers so we can know if we’re headed in the right direction and the distance we need to travel. Once we know where we are, we need to come together to plan on how to get where we’re going. We put plans into actions, obtain results, and evaluate our effectiveness. The same metrics that steered our planning now serve as the GPS to tell us if we’re on course. Based on that evaluation, if we haven’t arrived yet, we can re-examine our vision, change what we measure, or make new plans to ensure we all arrive at the shared vision together. This is JCCI’s Model for Community Change. We’ve seen it work in communities around the world as effectively as it does in Northeast Florida. When we tell our stories, we often focus on a specific topic (like infant mortality or public safety) or on a specific program, like an Inquiry or the Quality of Life Progress Report. But all of these stories make up the bigger story of an organization that knows how to bring us together to make real, lasting change.

Whatever you’re involved with at JCCI, you are par t of something amazing. 4

improvement through trend lines, while noting where ongoing and

persistent action is needed. JCCI uses community indicators in two major ways. The first is the continual evolution of the JCCI internationally-renowned annual Quality of Life Progress Report. This report is not just designed to help us learn about the community. From its inception in 1985, the purpose has been to “monitor and help improve those elements of Jacksonville which affect the quality of life.” The Quality of Life Progress Report presented its 29th annual look at our community, and for the first time the Report viewed Jacksonville’s progress through the lens of JAX2025. The nine focus areas previously monitored by JCCI’s Quality of Life Progress Report are now aligned with the ten Targets crafted through JAX2025. JAX2025 provides the portal for accountability, giving residents and community stakeholders a way and a responsibility to achieve Jacksonville’s vision for the year 2025. In keeping with this new alignment, the JAX2025 Community Cabinet uses specific population-based, quantitative metrics to measure progress towards

Message to Jacksonville In January 2013, Jacksonville embarked on an exciting, long term visioning effort – JAX2025. Through this initiative, the community recommended indicators to measure progress towards the vision. As a result, JCCI’s annual Quality of Life Progress Report has been subject to a paradigm shift. The nine focus areas previously monitored by JCCI’s Report are now aligned with the ten Targets crafted through JAX2025. The indicators in this report tell the story of a city that is not only turning the corner from the “Great Recession” but is also on the cusp of greatness. The trend lines demonstrate Jacksonville’s resiliency, but being resilient is not enough. Having witnessed the hope, strength, and continued resolve to persevere, residents have seen the potential for greatness and have raised the bar. Like a teacher who sees a student’s potential and pushes them towards success, the 2013 Quality of Life Progress Report asks Jacksonville to live up to its fullest potential, its highest and best aspirations.

Jacksonville is advancing in areas that are typically perceived as weaknesses. The unemployment rate and the public high school graduation rate are heading in the right direction. The percent of children without health insurance continues to decline, as does the crime rate. However, despite progress in these areas, Jacksonville has real weaknesses with which to contend. Disparities persist, demonstrated by indicators housed under the Diverse and Inclusive Target. Serious bicycle accidents continue, and tributary compliance with water quality standards is still on the decline.

Emerging Leaders... Forward is JCCI’s young leaders program that brings together people from all backgrounds to learn, engage and act to achieve the JAX2025 vision. It is where the doers, thinkers, makers and game-changers come together to share ideas and move Jacksonville forward. We provide emerging leaders opportunities to Learn about themselves and our community, Engage to expand their personal and professional networks, and Act to make positive change. Forward prides itself on celebrating the individual and has multiple ways for you to connect to create real change. Join us year round for JAX2025 issue-related forums, civic engagement trainings and social networking opportunities. Participation in programming is always open to anyone interested. In 2014, Forward began an exciting shift to support JAX2025 with our programming. What does that mean? Our topic selection process now begins with the ten JAX2025 Targets, and each Forward prorgam or event will focus on a JAX2025 Target and strategy. Interactive Learning Labs provide participants with bite-sized morsels of information to develop and strengthen skills needed to lead in the community, like: How to Lead Effective Meetings How to Survive Public Speaking How to Use Consensus and Facilitation Skills How to Communicate as a Leader Issue Forums connect participants directly with community leaders and experts. Forums come in multiple formats and provide opportunities to

Destination: A Vibrant Economy event highlighted 9 JAX2025 targets and their contribution to the local economy, and the Perfect Pitch event gave participants the opportunity to work with city branding experts to identify how to best sell Jacksonville. On the Urban Safari participants spent a day exploring public schools, private schools and even the KIPP Impact School to discover their unique challenges in educating our city’s youth. Forward’s volunteers hosted multiple Afterward events, getting participants to know one another and discuss forum and training topics in a social setting.

brought together over 400 people to tackle a critically important issue. Here’s a little piece of what they discovered:

Public Awareness and Education In any given year, 25 percent of adults have a diagnosable mental illness. Half of us will have a diagnosable mental illness in our lifetime. Over 4 out of 10 who suffer will not get treatment. There is a continuum for mental illness, with some being healthy, about 4 percent living with a disabling mental illness, and everybody else in between. The committee remained focused on the fact that everyone lives on the continuum of mental health and has to, throughout life, maintain their mental health.

down barriers between behavioral health and physical health. This topic is connected to the mental health continuum as individuals need to think of their brain and mind as part of their physical health. The committee learned

that a cultural bias against talking about mental health and mental illness prevents all of us from staying healthy.

Funding The committee gained clarity on the issue of services and funding for community mental health. One of the first important facts learned concerns the unfulfilled promise of community mental health made after large institutions were closed. A comparison look at public dollars available to support people with severe and persistent mental illness shows that, adjusted

Implementation

JCCI’s Inquiries are more than interesting reading - they are the launching pad for volunteer activity, turning recommendations into results. Volunteers meet with those who can bring about necessary and desired changes through specific actions, and the community is transformed, sometimes in small ways, and sometimes in big ways. Recession Recovery...and Beyond The work of this Task Force, led by volunteer chair Tom Patton, was completed in December 2013, culminating in several noteworthy results. Highlights include: JAXPORT expansion: Funding for fixing the swirling currents at the Mile Point has been committed by the State of Florida. Authorization for deepening the St. Johns River has been included in federal legislation, though funding must still be secured. Jacksonville Regional Health Collaborative: JCCI volunteers envisioned a game-changer this time and found almost universally positive reactions from stakeholders and decision-makers. The Task Force gave birth to the Jacksonville Regional Health Collaborative for the express purpose of building a hands-on research Institute downtown. The Collaborative will address several issues: significant job creation in a sector poised for rapid growth, Downtown revitalization, research and innovation, and long-term economic growth. The Health Collaborative (which includes leadership from the health care sector and academia) will develop and test solutions to create a paradigm shift toward preventive medicine with an emphasis on patient-centered responsibility. It’s not an overstatement to say that the Collaborative will represent the single most significant accomplishment of any JCCI implementation in our history! Aviation/aerospace industry: Northrop Grumman, Regent Aerospace, Embraer, Flight Star Aircraft Services, and KCI Aviation announced significant expansion and/or new projects in Northeast Florida. NASA awarded its first CubeSat-class launch to Generation Orbit Launch Services, the first commercial space launch for Cecil Spaceport. Children: 1-2-3 The successful implementation phase concludes later this fall, when a final report to the community will be released. For now, we will just share one accomplishment…Look out for the Duval Early Learning Coalition’s new website that will streamline the process parents go through to find a good early learning facility. We are pleased that the Task Force, under the excellent leadership of Chris Lester, has moved the needle in several significant areas. 10
