Grant Overview
Kentucky's Priority Outcomes for Grants to Promote Children, Families, and Equitable Communities
Target Outcomes for Kentucky's Children and Families
The Kentucky Department for Community Based Services (DCBS) and the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services (CHFS) are key state agencies that will be involved in implementing the Grants to Promote Children, Families, and Equitable Communities. These agencies are focused on improving the lives of Kentucky's most vulnerable populations, including children, families, and individuals living in poverty. The state's priority outcomes for this grant include improving access to high-quality early childhood education, reducing the number of children in foster care, and increasing the availability of affordable housing for low-income families. Kentucky's unique geography, with its Appalachian region and rural counties, presents distinct challenges in delivering services to these populations. The state's rural-urban disparities in access to healthcare, education, and economic opportunities will be a key consideration in achieving these outcomes.
Measuring Success in Kentucky's Equitable Communities
To measure the success of these grants, the state will track key performance indicators (KPIs) such as the number of children served by early childhood education programs, the rate of foster care placements, and the number of affordable housing units created. The Kentucky Center for Statistics (KYStats) will provide data and analysis to support the state's efforts to evaluate the effectiveness of these grants. Additionally, the state's geographic feature of having a high percentage of rural counties with limited access to resources will require grantees to be creative in their approaches to service delivery. The state's goal is to achieve measurable improvements in the lives of children and families, and to promote more equitable communities across Kentucky.
Focus on Kentucky's Most Pressing Needs
The state's priority outcomes are closely aligned with the needs identified in the Kentucky Statewide Comprehensive Needs Assessment, which highlights the need for more effective and efficient services to support children and families. The state's focus on improving access to early childhood education, for example, is supported by research showing that high-quality early childhood education is critical for children's long-term success. Similarly, the state's efforts to reduce the number of children in foster care are driven by the need to address the root causes of child maltreatment and to provide more effective support services for families. By focusing on these priority outcomes, the state aims to make meaningful investments in the lives of Kentucky's children and families, and to promote more equitable communities across the state.
