�....�.w� .._��..�, .m�...�..�.�_.__... .�.._. � ._.�� ._._. .���. ITEM NO: 8.2
The Tri-Valley Needs Assessment (t�ssessment) identified 14 areas of conceYn or service gaps in the Tri- �
Valley (Attachment 1). In June 2014, the Human Serviccs Commissions from the cities of Dublin, �
Livermore, and Pleasanton held a Joint meeting and identiFied three priorities for Euture regional work:
• Behavioral Health
• Health Care (including Dental)
• Senior Services
Of the three priorities, behavioral health services, senioi sernices, and most components of health care are
currently being provided for lo�u-income residents by communiry-based non-profit organizations with �
financial support from the three Tri-Va11ey cities. Some of the organizations providing these services include
rlxis Cominunity Health, CALICO, Cit��Serve oE the Tri-Valley, CRIL, Senior Support of the Tri-Valley,
Spectrum Community Services,Tri-Valley Haven, and YMCA. �
Dental services is an area of health care in ��hich a majority of the underser��ed community's needs are not
being met The Tri-Valley Needs Assessment identifies dental care as a most critical need that has significant
barriers for access, including insurance coverage and transportation. The Assessment found that "subsidized
dental care for low income residents, particularly the elderly, is very scarce." An estimated 20,000 to 30,000 �
Tri-Valley residents are in need of dental care.
Over the past t�vo to three years, Dublin, Livermore, Plcasanton, r�lamcda Count��, and Axis Community
Hcalth have engaged in discussions about the feasibility of a futurc dental clinic in thc Tti-Valley. Staff has
met with all parties twice over the past sia months to discuss the growirlg need and lack oE services for dental
care for low income residents and to explore oppoxtunities and barriers. The last meeting took place on
Tebruary 26, at which, Alameda County informed attendees that a Requcst Eor Proposals (RFP) Eor Dental
Health Ser��ices for Children and Families in �ast Counry had been issued �Uith a response due date of April
7, 2016. This is the first step towards selecting and contracting with a 9ualified dental service provider.
�1s part of the City of Dublin 2016-2017 Iluman Services Grants Program, Axis Community Health
submitted an application to rcquest grant funding Eor pee-construction costs for development of a dental care �
facility (t�ttachment 2). Preconstruction acti�-ities include a feasibilit�� study that will provide
recommendations for a sitc location, the 9uantity of dental chairs to provide, and other items based on �
current and projected dental care needs for the low-income and uninsured Tri-Valley residents. Staff
recommended that the Commission consider using tl�e one-time seed funding for this project. Axis
Community Health has been invited to attend tonight's Commission meeting to present their re9uest and
provide addirional information to the Cominission.

Axis,a non-profit Federally Qualified Health Center(FQHC),provides medical,behavioral health,and WIC nutrition services to more than 14,000 Tri-
Valley residents.We are the sole provider of care for low-income and uninsured residents enrolled in Medi-Cal or the county health program
(HealthPac).
Options for dental services for low-income residents are extremely limited,leaving most with no loca�access to care.Patients needing urgent dental
care must travel to Alameda County's Highland Hospital in Oakland,where waiting lists stretch out for months.The lack of dental services means low-
income patients do not receive essential preventive care,resulting in unnecessary dental and health complications.
In response,Axis is working with the cities of Dublin,Livermore and Pleasanton and Alameda County Health Services to develop dental services in the
Tri-Valley.As an FQHC,our organizzt+or, :vould qualify as a Denti-Cal provider and be able to receive reimbursement for dental services at a rete that
supports a financially feasible model.Our objective is to develop a locally-based dental service to serve low-income children and adults.
Axis's infrastructure meets federal regulatory requirements for provision of services.We've maintained contracts with the State,the County and the
cities of Pleasanton,Livermore and Dublin for more than two decades.We have fulfilled contractual requirements and passed all audits without
findings.Financial records are maintained to standard accounting procedures and annual audits are conducted by an independent CPA firm.
In the past 8 years,we have completed 6 facility projects;5 involved federal funds including HRSA/CIP and CDBG federal funds through local
jurisdictions,under the purview HUD.We have expertise in project development,federal procurement requirements,the public bid process,and
reporting requirements. Each project has been on time,on budget,and in full compliance with federal requirements.
8. Provide a brief summary of the project for which your agency is seeking funding(no more than three sentences or 250
characters�.This text will be used widely during the review and implementation process to describe your project.
To meet the need for affordable dental care for low-income or uninsured residents,Axis is developing a facility that will house this service.Funds are

11. Explain how this project will be implemented,administered,and operated.
This project is being implemented at the direction of the CEO and the Axis Community Health Board of Directors.A capital project oversight committee,
comprised of inembers of the board of directors,CEO,CFO,and Chief Development O�cer,will oversee project administration and operations.The
committee will report to Axis's board of directors.The committee's role will be to develop the project scope,timelines and budget;secure qualified
services,including architectural,legal and financial consultants,and general contractor;and to oversee project activities.Additionally,the CEO and
Chief Development Officer will work collaboratively with the Tri-Valley Dental Project Stakeholder Group to ensure that input from key stakeholders is
integrated into project plans.
12. Describe in detail the role of Dublin grant funds in this project(e.g.,what specifically will the grant funds be used for?�.
Funding from Dubiin for this capitai project will address the gap in dental services for low-income and uninsured residents.Specifically,Dublin grant
funds,in combination with CDBG funds from the cities of Pleasanton and Livermore,will be used for phase one of pre-development during which Axis
will conduct a demographic assessment of the population to be served;develop a business plan that takes into account projected revenues and
operational expenses;develop a capital project budget for the facility;determine the project site;and engage an architect to initiate pre-design and
programming of space.
Development of dental services has been a priority for Axis for many years.The majority of dentists in the Tri-Valley do not accept Denti-Cal--only
four dentists do.Our patients must go to Highland Hospitai in Oakland(or other out-of-area providers)for dental services,where the wait time is 6-8
months.Based on our patient population and other community data,we estimate 20-30,000 people in the Tri Valley need access to dental services.
In the 2011 Eastern Alameda County Human Services Needs Assessment conducted by the Cities of Dublin,Livermore and Pleasanton,a key finding in
the health care area indicated that"dental care for low-income residents,particularly the elderly,is very scarce."The report quoted one Medi-Cal
recipient as follows:"People do not understand the gravity of not having dental needs met.The only thing Med-Cal provides right now is extraction."
In 2014 staff from the Cities of Dublin,Livermore and Pleasanton and Axis Community Health,began to meet to discuss addressing this serious need.
In 2015 a Key Stakeholders group began to meet to clarify the need,identify barriers,and identify resources.The Key Stakeholders agreed on
working toward Axis providing dental services for the Tri-Valley and to assist us in effectively designing a ciinic and services that best meet the
needs of area residents.
13. Please list and briefly describe the outcome measures that are crucial to the success of this project.What strategies or
objectives will your agency use to track the progress of ineeting the outcome�s►?
Healthy People 2020,the standards of health care for the U.S.,states:"A growing body of evidence has linked oral health,particularly periodontal
(gum)disease,to several chronic diseases,including diabetes,heart disease,and stroke. In pregnant women,poor oral health has also been
associated with premature births and low birth weight.These conditions may be prevented in part with regular visits to the dentist."Healthy People
2020 sets the Leadin Health Indicator tar et at 49%of ersons a ed 2 or older who visited the dentist in the ast ear.This indicator was at 44.5%
in 2007,and went down to 41.8%in 2011.Data indicate that socio-economic factors,such as education and income,drive this percentage down.
In eastern Alameda County,the resources currentiy do not exist for achieving this goai.This project seeks to address this issue.Success will be
measured by achieving the following objectives:
•Completion of demographic assessment of the population to be served.This information is essential to determining the scope of the project,e.g.,
number of chairs and providers needed.
•Development of a business plan that projects revenues and operational expenses.This pro forma budget will analyze anticipated reimbursements
from payer sources and staffing costs.It will guide development of services that are achievabie and sustainabie.
•Development of a capital project budget for facility development.Based on costs for the physical site and construction,this budget will determine the
amount of capital needed for project construction and completio�.
•Engagement of an architectural firm to initiate pre-design and programming of space.Architectural and engineering analyses are essential to site
selection.Initial pre-design and programming of the space into functional areas(e.g.,x-ray,reception,dental chair)are important factors in site
maximization.
14. Describe the population your agency anticipates serving with these funds and how they will benefit from the implementation of
this project,i.e.seniors,youth,disabled, low-income,etc.
There is a growing number of low-income and uninsured Tri-Valley residents who do not have access to dental services.Axis's new dental program
wiil serve Dublin families living below 200%FPL.This project serves Dubiin's most impoverished residents;many are the working poor who are
struggling to maintain life's basic needs for their families.Dubiin is experiencing substantial population growth and a growing poverty rate.The
population jumped more than 53%over the past decade(Census 2010)and the number of Dublin residents in need of general assistance has doubled
since 2003(2011 Needs Assessment).The past decade has seen growing diversity,with an increase of nearly 400%in the Asian population(3,101
to 12,321).Twenty-one percent of Dublin residents are foreign-born,and 29%speak a language other than English at home.These demographics
present potential cultural and linguistic barriers to attaining and maintaining good health,including dental health.
Axis continues to see a tremendous rise in the number of Dublin residents in need of our services.In fact,we have gone from providing medical
services for 1,012 Dublin residents in 2010 to serving 1,371 in 2014,a 35%increase in just four years(UDS Reports,2011-2014).This project will
benefit low-income and uninsured Dublin residents by providing access to dental services.
15. How is this project culturally appropriate(i.e.,describe how it is specifically tailored to the client/customer population served�?
Axis's mission is to provide quality,affordable,accessible and compassionate hea�th care services that promote the well-being of all members of our
community.To meet this goal,Axis provides linguistically and culturally appropriate services and dental services will embrace these poiicies as well.
Front-line dental staff will be bilingual in Spanish and English.Translation services for other languages will be available as needed.Our employees are
trained to recognize and respect differences among patients'values,expectations and experiences.Staff members represent the cultures and
backgrounds of our patients,with care providers fluent in many languages.
16. Explain how your agency will outreach to low-income, limited English speakers,and/or disabled persons.How will each of these
groups access the project for which your agency is requesting funding?
Axis is the sole agency providing health care services for low-income and uninsured Dublin residents.Haif of our patients are limited English
speakers.Axis promotes its services,in English and Spanish,through community events,organizations and media outlets.Our Enrollment Specialists
and Community Relations Coordinator focus on reaching low-income,limited English speakers and other challenged popuiations,including those with
disabilities,to assist them in overcoming common barriers to accessing care,such as language,cultural differences,or a lack of knowledge of how to
enroll in public insurance.Other multi-lingual referral mechanisms include the patient services specialists who field calis from the public and the
TeleMinder automated appointment-reminder service. In addition,Axis receives referrals from Alameda County's 211 agency,whose staff has the
capacity to speak to callers in more than 150 languages.Ail Axis services are designed to accommodate individuals with disabilities and to comply
with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
17. Identify the organizations that your agency partners with and describe their relevant capabilities that result in greater service
integration.
Axis coordinates services on a number of levels.For patient care,we have cooperative agreements with partners regarding specific needs,such as
ValleyCare Medical Center for obstetrics services and Highland Hospital for specialty medical services.Additionally,Axis is part of the Alameda Health
Consortium and works with the other community health centers to assess community needs,identify new opportunities for collaboration,coordinate
patient advocacy,delineate effective continuums of care and prevent duplication of services.
Among our safety-net services partners are Tri-Valley Haven,which provides a food bank and shelter services for homeless families and victims of
domestic violence;Hope Hospice,the area's hospice and grief counseling service;Open Heart Kitchen,which offers a hot-meal program;and
CAPE/Head Start,which provides early intervention and educational services for low-income children.
For this project,Axis has been working actively with all three Tri-Valley cities through the Dental Services Key Stakeholder Group.Additional partners
include Alameda County Health Services,CAPE,Senior Support Program of the Tri-Valley,and Southern Alameda County Dental Society.
18. Describe the marketing and outreach your organization has done,particularly to Dublin residents.In addition,outline specific
collaboration with other service organizations in the City of Dublin or Tri-Valley.
Axis's Community Outreach Coordinator and Enrollment Specialists perform regular outreach at health fairs,community forums and faith-based events
and work closely with Head Start,school-based services,parent-education programs and other human services providers to identify prospective
ciients.Axis also alerts underserved populations to its services through its own client-friendly website;through 211.org,a free information and
referral service;and through ACHealthcare.org,a website that enables Alameda County residents to locate the nearest health care provider,with
special emphasis on programs that can assist non-English speakers.Because one-third of ciients rely on public transportation,Axis sites are located
near bus lines.Our enrollment specialists have been providing services at the Dublin�ibrary on a regular basis and attending Dublin's Wells Middle
School annual services fair for parents in the fall.With the start of the Affordable Care Act in 2013,Axis has increased its outreach and marketing
throughout the Tri-Valley.In Dublin,Axis has presented at Dublin library,at Covered California information nights,at low-income housing meetings,and
many other places.We are actively setting up more informational opportunities in Dublin to reach people newly eligible for Medi-Cal and coverage
through the health exchange,particularly since our demographic studies indicate that Dublin has a iarge number of newly eligible families.
19. Referring to questions 28,29 and 30,describe the project for which your agency is requesting funding and how this project
serves Dublin residents by meaN«b�e wa,�t one of the City oi Dublin's Mission,Vision,and Values.
This project meets a number of the City of Dublin's Mission,Vision,Values and Strategies.
The project aligns with the Mission or Vision statement to"promote and support a high quality of life which ensures a safe and secure environment
that fosters new opportunities."This project provides capacity to meet the needs of the increasing number of low-income and uninsured Dublin
residents in need of dental services.Access to dental care directly impacts the quality of life of these families.Among Dublin's Values is an emphasis
on"encouraging collaboration and communication with other communities on issues of mutual concern."This project is collaborative amongst the cities
of the Tri-Valley which seek to provide dental care capacity for the Tri-Valley's neediest residents.
20. BUDGET NARRATIVE Describe how this project is cost effective and how the budget is reasonable for the anticipated result.
The provision of dental services is directly related to maintaining good health and to preventing the onset of other diseases.The critical lack of dental
services for low-income and uninsured residents in the Tri-Vailey is an ongoing cause of concern amongst local government,county health agencies,
and area safety-net providers.
This project is targeted to reduce healthcare costs by providing ongoing preventive dental services. It will also offer treatment for people with critical
dentat care needs that may prevent them from obtaining and sustaining jobs.Furthermore,provision of care wiii hugely reduce the amount of suffering
borne by those who must travel out of area and wait long months for treatment.
Axis anticipates being able to develop and deliver this service at a reasonable and sustainabie cost.The pre-development capital project costs for this
Phase I project are in-line with the overall ratios of the project scope.
21. If this application does not receive funding,or receives reduced funding,what will be the effect on the project?
Axis is seeking funding for pre-construction of this capital project from all three Tri-Valley cities.Securing$25,000 in funding from the City of Dublin
will greatly improve our ability to seek further public funding as it demonstrates the continued collaborative effort within the Tri-Valley to meet the
health care needs of low-income residents.Without this grant funding,we will be less well-positioned in our effoRs,and will also need to find other
sources for the$25,000 we are seeking from the City of Dublin.

Axis's mission is to provide preventive and primary medical care to all members of the community,regardless of income,language,ethnicity or any
other factor.Axis's services are designed to reach out to underserved and uninsured populations,including low-income racial and ethnic minority
populations who otherwise lack access to health care.Our ability to effectively engage this population is evidenced by the increasing number of
Dublin residents we serve.As the sole provider of inedical services for the region's low-income and uninsured population,Axis serves a patient
population that is ethnically and linguistically diverse.Because half of our medical patients are Spanish-speaking,all front-line staff(call center,case
managers,enrollment staff,receptionists and medical assistants)are required to be bilingual in English and Spanish.Axis's medical staff speaks a
variety of languages,including Spanish,Hindi,Farsi,Mandarin,and Urdu and also has expert multicultural health care skills and specific knowledge
