TCM’s objective is to provide low-income communities with healthy food with no barriers to access as well as to prevent food from going to waste. Through two storefront markets, located in Gypsum and Edwards, and pop-up Mobile Markets available throughout the Eagle River Valley, The Community Markets are addressing food insecurity by providing a variety of fresh produce, dairy, meats, and bread as well as shelf-stable grocery items for customers to shop on a regular basis.Today, we continue to feed over 4,800 people per week. As we develop our organizational strategic plan for the next 3 years, we plan to hone in on local sourcing and food recovery systems as well as sustaining existing community par tnerships with senior and youth meal and snack programs. MIRA is a single-stop, comprehensive and culturally relevant approach to resource connection and service delivery. MIRA brings resources directly to neighborhoods and workplaces to enable government and community services, resources, and programming to go directly into neighborhoods, schools, community places, and other gathering/event locations with culturally relevant branding, recognized and trusted leadership, and consistent data collection. The vision of MIRA is that all community members will be able to access resources in a way that is cohesive and streamlined, in an asset-based, culturally relevant and whole family approach. MIRA travels to each of the six largest mobile home developments in our county 1-3 times per month serving over 4,100 people each year. The next 3 years of MIRA will focus on expanding our offerings as described above and expanding our annual health and wellness fair and monthly health education series. Each month, we have at least one event that focuses on bringing resources to the community in a more engaging way. Elevar is an emergent leadership development program and social impact fund that provides community investments through grantmaking and program-related investments to emerging Latinx leaders and people of color. Elevar creates the connection point between existing education and leadership training programs to the resources needed for emerging leaders to make their dreams a reality, while building economic power, and creating a more empowered community. Elevar has 11 steering committee members and a founding cohor t of 7 entrepreneurs. We are just getting started as this program continues to grow and evolve.

Through our various programs and initiatives, we have developed a deep understanding of the underlying factors contributing to the challenges faced by individuals and communities in Eagle Valley. Our approach to root-cause work is characterized by: Community and Stakeholder Engagement: We recognize the impor tance of engaging with diverse stakeholders, including community members, nonprofit organizations, government agencies, and other key partners, in the root-cause analysis process. Through collaborative discussions and participatory approaches, we ensure that a wide range of perspectives are considered and that solutions are informed by the lived experiences of those most affected by the issues at hand. Systems Thinking: Our root-cause work is guided by a systems thinking approach, which acknowledges the interconnectedness of various social, economic, and environmental factors that shape individual and community well-being. By examining the underlying systemic structures and dynamics that perpetuate inequities and barriers to oppor tunity, we are better equipped to develop holistic solutions that address root causes rather than symptoms. Data-Driven Analysis: We place a strong emphasis on data collection and analysis to identify patterns, trends, and disparities within the community. By analyzing quantitative data such as demographic information, socioeconomic indicators, and service utilization rates, as well as qualitative data gathered through interviews, surveys, and focus groups, we gain valuable insights into the root causes of social problems. We par tner with many organizations on their Community Needs Assessments as a way to analyze data and summarize the needs of the community. Continuous Learning and Adaptation: Root-cause analysis is an iterative process that requires ongoing learning, reflection, and adaptation. We are committed to continuously refining our understanding of complex social issues and refining our strategies based on evidence and feedback. By embracing a culture of learning and innovation, we strive to remain responsive to the evolving needs and dynamics of the community. Overall, our experience with root-cause work has underscored the importance of taking a comprehensive and collaborative approach to addressing social challenges. By delving beneath the surface to uncover the underlying drivers of inequity and injustice, we can develop more effective and sustainable solutions that promote positive change and improve the lives of individuals and families in Eagle Valley.

By actively engaging with diverse stakeholders and amplifying underrepresented voices, Elevar works towards dismantling barriers to social connectedness and creating a more inclusive and equitable community for all. Through intentional outreach effor ts and culturally responsive programming, Elevar seeks to create spaces where everyone feels valued, suppor ted, and empowered to contribute to the collective well-being of the community. In summary, the Elevar Program plays a vital role in addressing Public Health Improvement Plan Priority 2 by promoting social connectedness and belonging among BIPOC entrepreneurs, steering committee members, and a wide spectrum of stakeholders. Through its emphasis on building community, fostering collaboration, and nurturing inclusive spaces, Elevar contributes to the creation of a stronger, more resilient community where everyone has the oppor tunity to thrive and succeed.

This investment will focus on fostering leadership development and capacity-building oppor tunities, enabling committee members to assume additional leadership roles within Elevar and create connections with the broader community. #2: Expand the Elevar Entrepreneurial Cohor t by welcoming new members and nur turing the growth of the founding cohor t through mentorship, training, and resource provision. The aim is to empower entrepreneurs to achieve their maximum potential and contribute to the economic development of Eagle County. #3: Organize and facilitate 7-8 roundtable discussions on diverse themes relevant to the Elevar community. These roundtables will serve as platforms for connecting subject matter experts with Elevar Steering Committee members and entrepreneurs, fostering mutual education and collaboration. #4: Establish a mentorship program by pairing experienced Steering Committee members with entrepreneurs. This program aims to foster human connection, providing guidance, support, and networking opportunities to empower entrepreneurs from diverse backgrounds to navigate challenges, seize opportunities, and accelerate their professional growth. #5: Allocate funds to develop a comprehensive professional development program in collaboration with partners such as Rocky Mountain Microfinance Institute, Colorado Mountain College, Vail Valley Par tnership, and others. This program will prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion, aiming to bridge skill gaps, provide equitable access to resources, and foster an inclusive environment for Elevar par ticipants from diverse backgrounds. Goals: Empower and Connect Elevar Steering Committee Members Suppor t Entrepreneurial Growth Enhance EVCF Suppor t Facilitate Knowledge Exchange Describe the project goals and objectives:* 5/6/24, 8:57 AM Advancing Systems Change Grant: Program Application 2024 https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1zIn65_jODcu1DclDmvf77s55YUYik-IsqaPlqGALE9o/edit#response=ACYDBNj6Tl-1kXRepTx2JffKB71Nkpi_Rneu…12/18 Docusign Envelope ID: A03BF2DF-1A97-4FA0-A528-7DF28A02D8EB EVCF adopts a comprehensive approach to evaluation, integrating various methodologies to assess the effectiveness and impact of its programs, notably the Elevar initiative. At the core of our evaluation strategy is a commitment to understanding the nuanced needs of our diverse community and fostering sustainable, long-term change. To ensure inclusivity and cultural responsiveness, we prioritize engaging with stakeholders through surveys tailored to the specific demographics we serve. For instance, we implement surveys targeting The Community Market (TCM) customers, aiming to glean insights into their cultural preferences, identify potential barriers, and ascer tain additional needs. Similarly, surveys are deployed for MIRA clients. The success of our programs, particularly TCM, MIRA, and Elevar, is multifaceted and extends beyond numerical metrics. While quantitative data, such as entry survey responses collected by volunteers and staff, are vital in tracking trends and identifying community needs, we recognize the impor tance of qualitative indicators in assessing impact. Exit data from the MIRA program, for instance, illuminates increased awareness and utilization of essential services, including health, education, housing, and food assistance. Elevar is evaluated through a combination of quantitative and qualitative measures aimed at capturing both individual outcomes and broader community impacts. Pre- and post-surveys administered to Elevar steering committee members and cohor t par ticipants enable us to track behavioral changes, knowledge acquisition, and the development of supportive relationships over time. Beyond shor t-term metrics, EVCF is committed to fostering enduring community transformation. This necessitates a holistic evaluation approach that encompasses behavioral changes, shifts in attitudes, knowledge acquisition, and the cultivation of meaningful relationships. Through periodic surveys, focus groups, and ongoing dialogue with stakeholders, we seek to measure not only the scale of our impact but also the depth of our influence on systemic change.

Our vision is to collectively build a community that embraces diversity, honors inclusivity and actively works to dismantle the systems and institutions that prevent communities of color from having a voice and leadership roles across all aspects of society. We will listen, learn, and collaborate to activate community power, create space for community voice, and give the communities we serve an oppor tunity to create and implement ideas with, by and for communities of color throughout Eagle County. This program addresses root causes by empowering community members to identify their own solutions and oppor tunities while providing the learning and support necessary to succeed and the funding needed to get star ted. Often BIPOC community members are unable to attain economic prosperity or star t their own businesses because they do not have traditional sources of funding or wealth such as generational wealth, credit or equity to take out business loans, or the knowledge necessary to begin these financial processes and engage in our country’s capitalistic economic system. Limited access to networks and social capital can make it difficult for individuals to connect with others who can help them advance in their careers and succeed in their endeavors. Elevar is creating network opportunities for potential leaders in our community who do not have access to those groups. For those who are not fluent in English, language barriers can create additional challenges and make it difficult to access cer tain oppor tunities and succeed in cer tain fields. All Elevar programming is conducted bilingually and continues to work to advocate for bilingual programming across the community. In addition, individuals who are not citizens, or who are not authorized to work in the US, their immigration status can create additional barriers to social mobility, especially in star ting their own businesses, because Elevar has a mentoring and 1:1 approach EVCF is able to walk alongside individuals through these barriers in order to achieve economic success. We could continue to list these root causes, but know that they are endless, reiterating the impor tance of a cohor t model to provide peer support, mentoring, etc. when addressing systemic barriers. Inclusivity and Equity How does this project address root causes (see Grant Information Packet for definition and detailed reference)? * 5/6/24, 8:57 AM Advancing Systems Change Grant: Program Application 2024 https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1zIn65_jODcu1DclDmvf77s55YUYik-IsqaPlqGALE9o/edit#response=ACYDBNj6Tl-1kXRepTx2JffKB71Nkpi_Rneu…16/18 Docusign Envelope ID: A03BF2DF-1A97-4FA0-A528-7DF28A02D8EB Specific to this grant request, The Elevar program uniquely redefines typical decision making. Elevar boasts its own Steering Committee, or decision making group, composed of 100% Latinx individuals. These 11 community leaders are a force to be reckoned with and represent the diversity of workforce options within our community. To remove barriers to par ticipation and ensure equitable representation, Steering Committee members are compensated for their time. Each Steering Committee member has also been given a scholarship to obtain self-identified skills by taking courses through Colorado Mountain College, attending events hosted by Vail Valley Partnership, and achieving cer tifications that range from interpretation and marketing to Board Service and Community Leadership. In their inaugural year, the Steering Committee developed the grant application process, assisted with recruitment, and evaluated all 32 applications received. In the next year, we are excited to identify growth oppor tunities for each Steering Committee Member to extend their service with Elevar through new roles. The Entrepreneur Cohor t group will receive an intensive 6-month training program that will enhance and unite them with their mentors who are par t of the Steering Committee. Eagle Valley Community Foundation’s (EVCF) role is to gather people together who are doing good work and listen intently to needs and gaps that exist in our community, working collectively on solutions. As a community convener and trusted resource, staff, leadership, and volunteers are integrated into the neighborhoods in which we serve and have deep understandings of barriers to health and social equity in our community. Many staff are people introduced to EVCF first as customers and clients of our programs. Since launching The Community Market in 2018, six customers have advanced into full-time staff roles within Eagle Valley Community Foundation. 100% of our Executive leadership team reflects the diverse populations that we serve and over 60% of our staff identify as people of color and/or come from historically marginalized communities. Our diverse staff have experiences as customers, volunteers, and as donors. These perspectives help to shape how we serve our community, while recognizing that we are neither the exper ts nor the authority on the issues in which we work. We embrace people with diverse perspectives and experiences to join us and engage in organizational decision-making. All programs that have emerged from EVCF are a result of community informed and community-driven needs. We enter every partnership and conversation with compassion, humility and a spirit of learning.
