State details "Roots Hubs" regional model to advisory panel; hubs to run needs assessments and subgrants
Summary
Deputy Director Alice Pollard and staff described the Roots Hubs model: regionally governed hub leads will conduct needs assessments, write action plans and manage regional subgrants; action plans are due in September and will guide funding priorities.
Deputy Director Alice Pollard told the advisory committee that "North Carolina Roots stands for rural organizations orchestrating transformation for sustainability," and described how hub leads will establish governance structures, convene regional partners and administer subgrants tied to needs-assessment priorities.
Pollard said hubs are responsible for mapping regional strengths and gaps across physical health, behavioral health, and health-related social needs; they will produce needs assessments now and action plans in September that will guide subgrant decisions and funding allocations. She outlined hub responsibilities including financial oversight, data analytics and tribal engagement plans, and noted that hubs are charged with convening local partners and shaping regional standards of care.
