Program accomplishments

• UWSHR conducts fundraising campaigns, acts as an administrative agent, and distributes funds to participating area organizations according to donor designations and fund distribution committee recommendations. Program Services - Community Investments:UWSHR envisions a community where all individuals and families thrive and reach their full potential. To fully realize this vision, we must support those living in or on the verge of poverty or crisis with navigating a path to self-sufficiency. Factors that prevent children and families from experiencing safe, stable and successful lives are complex and must be addressed holistically. UWSHR is focused on partnering with vulnerable populations in the South Hampton Roads communities. This includes those below the Federal Poverty Level as well as those struggling to make ends meet, who we call ALICE .ALICE is an acronym coined by a collaborating group of United Ways that stands for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. The ALICE population represents a growing number of households in our community who work hard and earn more than the official Federal Poverty Level, but less than the basic cost of living. ALICE makes too much to qualify for most government assistance yet struggles to afford life's essentials. Typically, ALICE is one life changing event from falling into poverty. To best serve these populations and provide cutting-edge, big-picture solutions, we work with a network of partners and a set of tools that help us deliver results effectively and efficiently: Mobility Mentoring is a model developed by Economic Mobility Pathways that we adopted in 2016. We believe that the methods, principles and research of Mobility Mentoring can be applied at varying degrees in diverse settings across health and human services. GHRconnects, the Community Indicators Dashboard, tracks meaningful, accurate and standardized data over time. It gives a clear picture of how our region is performing in a variety of critical areas and drives data-driven decisions to help us turn the curve and improve quality of life. GHRconnects also documents and promotes best practices and serves as a space for community collaboratives to communicate the impact of their work. Unite Us is a collaborative software that allows us to seamlessly connect people with the services they need in real time. It shifts our work from fragmented services to coordinated care networks. Results-Based Accountability (RBA) is an approach that encompasses population and performance accountability. RBA provides a simple, structured approach for measuring performance of programs and services. RBA has three types of performance measures: how much did you do? how well did you do it? and is anyone better off? Measures that indicate whether anyone is better off are most important and meaningful yet are hardest to control. Program Services - Program Initiatives:United Way of South Hampton Roads has two current initiatives: Mission United and United for Children, which are long-term, multi-sector efforts that focus on specific populations and address entrenched problems by establishing a common agenda and aligning resources and strategy. Mission United is the first-ever coordinated network of community resources and services in Hampton Roads providing relief and support to veterans, active duty military members, and their families. Utilizing Unite Us technology, we seamlessly connect military-connected individuals and families to services such as affordable housing, job training and healthcare. United for Children exists to give every child in South Hampton Roads the support needed to achieve their dreams. Through cross-sector partnerships with nonprofits, faith-based partners, city governments, school districts and community stakeholders, we have built promising solutions by carrying the voice of our community on the issues that matter most for children.

It helps alleviate some of the financial burden of health insurance costs for smaller nonprofit organizations if they were to obtain their own planSupporting Services - Fundraising:This supporting service category includes expenditures which provide the structure necessary to encourage and secure financial support for UWSHR's to fulfil its mission.
