Attachment B
The COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic recession have negatively affected many people's
mental health and created new barriers for people already suffering from mental illness and substance
use disorders. During the pandemic, about 4 in 10 adults in the U.S. have reported symptoms of anxiety
or depressive disorder, a share that has been.largely consistent, up from one in ten adults who reported
these symptoms from January to June 2019. A Health Tracking Poll from July 2020 also found that many
adults are reporting specific negative impacts on their mental health and well-being, such as difficulty
sleeping (36%) or eating (32%), increases in alcohol consumption or substance use (12%), and worsening
chronic conditions (12%), due to worry and stress over the coronavirus. As the pandemic wears on,
ongoing and necessary public health measures expose many people to experiencing situations linked to
poor mental health outcomes, such as isolation and job loss.
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, Americans are required to stay isolated to protect themselves and
their communities. However, the home may not be safe for many families who experience domestic
violence, which may include both intimate partners and children. COVID-19 has caused major economic
devastation, disconnected many from community resources and support systems, and created
widespread uncertainty and panic. Such conditions may stimulate violence in families where it didn't
exist before and worsen situations in homes where mistreatment and violence has been a problem.
Violence in the home has'an overall cost to society, leading to potentially adverse physical and mental
health outcomes, including a higher risk of chronic disease, substance use, depression, post-traumatic
stress disorder, and risky sexual- behaviors. There is a concern that the numbers experiencing violence
will dramatically rise in as a result of social distancing and quarantine during COVID-19.
Children are specifically vulnerable to abuse during COVID-19. Research shows that increased stress
levels among parents is often a major predictor of physical abuse and neglect of children. Stressed
parents may be more likely to respond to their children's anxious behaviors or demands in aggressive or
abusive ways. The support systems that many at -risk parents rely on, such as extended family; child care
and schools, religious groups and other community organizations, are no longer available in many areas.
Child protection agencies'are experiencing strained resources with fewer workers available, making
them unable to conduct home visits in areas. Since children are not going to school, teachers and school
counselors are unable to witness the signs of abuse and report to the proper authorities. Also, many at -
risk families may not have access to the technology children needed to stay connected with friends and
extended family.

Infant Mortality /Child Abuse Prevention:
Families continue to face stressors brought on or exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, and we know
they will have to grapple with the collateral consequences of the coronavirus — loss of employment,
housing, food security and so much more — as our state recovers. In these times of extreme stress and
uncertainty, we cannot ignore the risk of children experiencing abuse and neglect. That's why experts
say it is important to foster support for families and encourage stress -reducing behaviors. In order to
prevent child abuse and neglect, we must recognize past trauma, support caregivers, and come together
as a community to provide the resources necessary for families to thrive. Prevention professionals are
still working to understand the pandemic's repercussions for incidents of child abuse and neglect, but
we do know calls to the abuse hotlines are lower than normal.
Indian River County has witnessed a rise in infant mortality after economic downturns in the past. Most
notably, in 2011, after the 2008; 2009 crisis, IRC saw the highest rate of infant mortality in Indian River
County's history, 12.5 per 1000. That year there were only four counties in the State with a higher infant
mortality rate.than Indian River County. The State average at that time was 6.4,per 1000. Since that
time, the community, has added and expanded programs and pursued initiatives that were meaningful
in lowering infant mortality. These are proven practices that can be.expanded to prepare moms and
families for the risk factors associated with infant mortality — specifically toxic stress.
• Fund child abuse & infant mortality prevention initiatives and programs and expand existing
strategies to meet the increase incidence of child abuse $100,000 per year x 3 years- $300,000
