Odi City Manager RECOMMENDATION DATE October 29, 1991 SUBJECT Endorsement of a "Dade Alliance" REFERENCES One ( 1 ) ENCLOSURES Fl�f_ It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission endorse the concept of a "Dade Alliance" with other participating juris- dictions to coordinate the health and human services needs of this community. BACKGROUND For the past several months, I have been meeting with the execu- tives of Metropolitan Dade County, the School Board, the State of Florida, United Way, Public Health Trust, and the State Attorney to design a mechanism to cooperatively address the health and human service needs of this community. The group has formulated the attached concept for a "Dade Alliance" and is presenting it to each of the appropriate jurisdictions for endorsement. The Dade County School Board, at its meeting reviewed and endorsed the "Dade the United Way of Dade County will November 8, 1991 meeting and the Public the item on November 14, 1991. October 23, Alliance." address the Health Trust 1991 board In addition, item at its will address I am requesting your concurrence to initiate the City's par- ticipation in the "Dade Alliance." I will report to you at a subsequent commission meeting on recommendations for membership appointments and the status of this project. s a C1 I 0 0 "DARE ALLIANCE" Since the spring of this year, the chief operating officers of the County, School Board, City of Miami, United Way, and State of Florida (HRS) along with the State Attorney, the judiciary, and the Greater Miami Chamber, have been meeting to promulgate a coordinated planning effort that would address both the health and human services needs of this community. This coalition of individuals has successfully formulated the general concept of the "Dade Alliance" and are simultaneously presenting it to each of the respective governing bodies for concurrence. Recognizing the interrelationship of health and human service needs, it is anticipated that the "Dade Alliance," through inventory, community involvement, analysis, and advocacy will build a consensus for the effective use of all human and fiscal resources available to meet the dynamic and changing health and social service needs of the community at the client level. Advantages Identification of health and human service needs, problems, and gaps Efficient and effective use of resources Sharing of information, establishing consensus, develop- ing priorities Maximizing revenue sources Improving the community's ability to meet changing needs Minimizing overlap and duplication of effort Participants State of Florida Metropolitan Dade County Public Health Trust City of Miami Dade County School Board United Way of Dade County Greater Miami Chamber of Commerce Through the establishment of two standing committees (research/ planning and citizen involvement), the "Dade Alliance" will reach into the community to involve all service providers, universi- ties, consumers, planning organizations, advocacy groups, research groups, and neighborhood groups.
