Advocating for Lasting Change
Hello everyone, I am……, and it is a privilege to introduce to you today a vital project that aims to address two critical health needs in our society in Jordan: mental health concerns among young students and the lack of access to quality healthcare for managing chronic diseases. Examining our community’s issues makes it clear that preventative actions are necessary to protect our children’s health and ensure a better future for all elderly patients with chronic health conditions. This presentation will clarify the significance of funding and policy in resolving the current issues facing the Jordanian community. Furthermore, the substantial evidence will demonstrate how these adjustments will result in the desired good consequences. Additionally, I will provide general budget estimates to help the project financially secure sufficient funding and human resources. Finally, I will lay out a transformational change method backed by an evidence-based change theory approach. Let’s get started.

Social Determinants Affecting Health in the Community
Social determinants of health significantly influence health outcomes in the community of Jordan, Minnesota. These determinants encompass various environmental conditions and socio-economic factors that shape individuals’ health and well-being. Housing inventory in Jordan vary, with older and sometimes dilapidated homes reflecting lower socioeconomic class in downtown locations. Socio-economic disparities in housing conditions may contribute to health disparities, impacting residents’ physical and mental health outcomes. While commercial activity is rising in Jordan, vacant buildings raise questions about economic stability.
Financial constraints and limited access to insurance may hinder residents’ ability to afford healthcare services, leading to worsening health outcomes. Disparities in educational attainment and job opportunities may contribute to health inequities in Jordan. Educational resources and employment opportunities vary between wealthier and poorer socioeconomic regions, influencing access to good nutrition, healthcare, and general well-being.
