Much of this data has come from the EACHSNA,which was last completed in 2011.The <br /> data gathered was derived from census information,surveys of hard to reach populations, provider surveys, <br /> focus groups, and key informant interviews. <br /> This vital data takes time, planning and budgeting. In this action,the commission will take steps to use the <br /> 2020 census data to update the EACHSNA in 2021.The commission and city staff will partner with Dublin and <br /> Livermore to prepare for an updated Needs Assessment. <br /> Measures of Success: <br /> • Audit the 2011 EACHSNA for effectiveness and usefulness with Livermore, Dublin and key service <br /> providers to determine a scope for the RFP <br /> • Add RFP scope and cost estimates to 2-year budget <br /> • Draft RFP for firm to conduct EACHSNA. <br /> :a <br /> 151.T'S`-NTO September 5, 2018 110 <br />
