Scott said the first event sold out 400 reservation slots and the county accepted roughly 450 cars. \"Those sold out, and we ended up taking, wait, those sold out, and we ended up taking about 450 cars or thereabouts,\" he said. The county will receive detailed quantities of collected hazardous waste from the Illinois EPA's vendor in the next few weeks.

Scott announced three remaining collection dates: Aug. 2 at Expo Gardens; Sept. 13 at 3 Sisters Park in Chillicothe; and Oct. 4 at Alpha Park in Bartonville. He said registration information and reminders will be posted on county social media as each date approaches. Scott also noted that Becca, the county staffer who coordinates the program, was absent due to a death in her family.

The committee did not take formal action on the events during the meeting; Scott invited questions and said staff will share final collection totals when they are available from the vendor.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Peoria County Health Committee","oneSentenceSummary","Peoria County staff reported that the first household hazardous‑waste event sold out 400 reservation slots and that about 450 cars arrived; three more collection dates were announced for August, September and October.","taxTitle","Peoria County, Illinois","taxId",2551,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6217228,"Peoria County reports attendance gains after targeted truancy interventions; summer supports planned",582,680000,1262000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3647909-a29ac20ed27dc883fc31d6acfab52352&start=680&end=1262","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3647909-a29ac20ed27dc883fc31d6acfab52352/thumbnail_680000.jpg","/articles/6217228/Peoria-County/Illinois/Peoria-County-reports-attendance-gains-after-targeted-truancy-interventions-summer-supports-planned","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6217228-f5a0bcda84dace760d86ea4e67653b74/orig.mp4?Expires=1775476162&Signature=biE0PLz1FrjrJ24mvx9eY3QxSX7pVkOmp-E-bJrB5hIwV668fMvHutXUnHrDxkT~tr0FCj4hkx0Gsor88fNjlgOubUwuG8fndKemh2Ko8jd4PwVvetO~BbCas-osgC1t28UezkztmJ683aZWmjH0A6dl22GJSmwaLcKQiVO6NixxfcvZMiWNpypJBMkBhwdCYsz4xVWspqOFPEV3z7li3F0SHNZfJKHm1jcUAEx~iH29OB89jtcq1eq-rNFfXnRx1YkpnmDbqpAw32rt31YnKOvzbcVi2pVo9LYqkRiQ7tGGMEPzSyRNeBgaoHVcBxn0YHBF2ix2nHrIIhbW4dzeqw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Dr. McKenna, Regional Office of Education representative, told the Peoria County committee about arts and education events, staffing changes and upcoming literacy programming before staff presented detailed truancy updates and interventions.

A truancy program staff member (name not specified in the transcript) reported final‑year data were still being compiled but shared a success story from one county school. The staff member said Angelo Parker, a tier‑2 specialist, worked with the student and family and the school to create a phased return‑to‑school plan. \"From October 23 until the end of the school year, there were 126 days, and he attended 89½ of those,\" the staff member said, noting the student's attendance rose from about 4% at prereferral to about 71% after intervention.

The staff member described steps taken: a home visit, a truancy advisory board at the county school (including the principal, assistant principal, counselor and a CIPCO representative for potential special‑education needs), and a phased schedule of attending progressively more class hours. The principal emailed that the school's student support specialist had \"made a huge impact\" and that increased presence by county staff improved family engagement.

On summer programming, the staff member said the truancy team will run small wraparound groups at their facility with partner FamilyCore, serving an estimated 15–20 students. The groups will be separated by grade: a third‑through‑fifth grade cohort meeting Monday and Wednesday, and a sixth‑through‑eighth grade cohort meeting Tuesday and Thursday. Paul Burse will lead a male‑only series focused on routines, life skills and relationship building; planned activities include field trips such as attending a Chiefs game and swimming.

Dr. McKenna also reported education items unrelated to truancy: the Arts & Education spring celebration served 68 schools and 4,113 students; the Preschool For All program will add a classroom next year; and a literacy summit is scheduled for June 11 at Illinois Central College's Peoria campus with keynote speaker Kwame Alexander. Dr. McKenna said the Peoria Regional Learning Center has hired Dr. Michelle Cruz as principal.

Truancy staff said they will present finalized year‑end data at the next committee meeting and continue summer supports aimed at maintaining attendance gains.","Regional education leaders and truancy staff reported attendance improvements for at least one severely truant student following home visits, tailored school interventions and a truancy advisory board; summer programs and partnerships are planned to sustain gains.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6217233,"Peoria County health department outlines priorities, flags possible emergency-preparedness grant cuts",377,175000,552000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3647909-a29ac20ed27dc883fc31d6acfab52352&start=175&end=552","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3647909-a29ac20ed27dc883fc31d6acfab52352/thumbnail_175000.jpg","/articles/6217233/Peoria-County/Illinois/Peoria-County-health-department-outlines-priorities-flags-possible-emergency-preparedness-grant-cuts","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6217233-24b1c0073fa1a8f6f680968ecf1afc71/orig.mp4?Expires=1775476162&Signature=kwVFxOdpwtOhkNe23Q4EER8aLeVeU4zAOvjp89qQLZlikfWOrDEMSl95AyWjNdSNLYCvHZWxPxQpbl1qRnPv4MfdEQNLJwqzvSYazj1dqzHrFNt86E2PjxvoT6~5ztC-YT~fl~59PhWwuXHZB4MTvWat0MIRvn7tSUDoKwroBpSIvf1M~FFn9Kp1OJ~FXgQcQc~hXjALTeDLiipuYSoz9QkKItb36oYvzGNrZiyGVtlOKSxl1kxMWlubpNf2ofaLTbF9F6k7STFdPM5EbX~XigbyMNMJB8m1baXyvx5Nt3aQkZ6LG-Ef-y80w8X9lvIIyUzqaePMC6oABBnSgqNnCw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Monica Henderson, Health Department staff, told the Peoria County committee that the department is completing stakeholder meetings to set county health priorities and will develop a three‑year improvement plan that would go into effect Jan. 1, 2026.

The work, Henderson said, builds on routine community health assessments required of local health departments and on collaboration with hospital systems and neighboring counties to align resources and scoring. \"Those scores along with our neighboring counties and our hospitals will be consolidated together and we'll have one aggregate score for what we all focus on,\" she said.

Henderson said the department is primarily grant funded and is finalizing applications for state and federal pass‑through dollars. She said the department expects cuts to emergency management and City Readiness Initiative grants and that staff are coordinating with the county administrator and the city manager to determine how the city and county could support operations while grant outcomes are clarified. \"We expect cuts for our emergency management grants and our city readiness initiative grants,\" Henderson said.

Henderson reviewed the county's Emergency Management Agency (EMA) consolidation, saying the county adopted a consolidated EMA in 2018 and later consolidated city efforts in 2022. She said Jason Marks, emergency management staff, is focusing on first‑responder accreditations and the county's aging outdoor warning systems; Marks is also coordinating related planning and data work.

Henderson described facilities and infrastructure work at the new Health and Human Services campus, including climate‑control issues and coordination with facilities management superintendent Brian Johnson and community partners. \"The beauties of a new building until you stretch its temperature, then we don't know how well it's going to work,\" a committee member observed while Henderson answered questions.

On infectious‑disease preparedness, Henderson said the department has been monitoring regional measles activity and working with school districts and the Regional Office of Education on back‑to‑school vaccination outreach. \"No,\" Henderson said when asked if there were any known measles cases in the county, adding, \"I say that because as soon as you say it out into the universe, you get nervous.\" She urged vaccination and noted differing vaccine histories for people born before or after 1957 may affect booster needs.

Henderson said the department will host the final stakeholder/community partner meeting this week to finalize scoring; those scores will guide the department's improvement plan and grant requests. She invited committee members to ask questions and said staff will continue to share updates as grant and preparedness work proceeds.","Monica Henderson of the Peoria County health department updated the committee on a countywide community health assessment, the selection of multi‑year health priorities, grant funding status and measles preparedness; staff expect cuts to some emergency-preparedness grants and plan further coordination with city and county partners.","actionData","errors"]
