The document summarizes efforts by the Health and Human Services Department to identify community health needs in Evanston, Illinois through various surveys and committees. The 2013 Community Health Survey showed improvements in some health areas but also concerns about uninsured rates and asthma. A condensed survey of at-risk groups found greater health disparities. A 2014 Health Summit prioritized access to care, chronic conditions, nutrition/activity, and violence. Future data gathering will include a 2015 Community Health Survey and Community Health Assessment.
1) The city of Evanston has joined the World Health Organization's network of age-friendly cities to assess how age-friendly the community is and develop an action plan to address issues.
2) An Age-Friendly Evanston taskforce was appointed to gather community input on transportation, housing, social participation and other topics to determine priorities.
3) Preliminary findings indicate a need for more affordable housing options, improved transportation including medical transportation, and better coordination of social services for older residents.

Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for people ages 5 to 35 in the US. Human error is responsible for the vast majority of crashes, around 93%. Using a cell phone while driving makes a driver four times more likely to crash due to the cognitive distraction it causes. Reaction times of drivers using cell phones are slower than those of drunk drivers with a 0.08% blood alcohol content. Both hands-free and handheld phone use pose dangerous risks, as the brain experiences inattention blindness and a 37% reduction in spatial processing needed for driving. Cell phone use is estimated to be involved in 24% of all motor vehicle crashes. Public opinion polls show strong majority support for bans on cell phone use while driving.
A8 a10 chicago main intro of ordinances 2012 12/10cityofevanston
The document proposes establishing a Tax Increment Financing (TIF) district along Main/Chicago in Evanston to fund infrastructure improvements and encourage development. It outlines three ordinances for approval and describes the key elements of the TIF plan, including establishing a $25 million budget over 23 years. Funds would support land acquisition, utilities, rehabilitation, facilities, and other eligible redevelopment costs. The document finds the area eligible for TIF based on lack of growth in property values compared to the city and issues like deterioration. An implementation plan has been developed through meetings with aldermen and merchants to prioritize projects focused on parking, streetscapes, property upgrades, and creating open space to spur transit-oriented development.
CrossFit e-Town is seeking approval from the Evanston City Council to expand their business operations. They provide small group personal training classes using CrossFit methodology. They aim to create a community for local residents, students, and first responders.

CrossFit e-Town is requesting an increase in their class size cap to allow their business to meet its financial obligations and better serve the community.
The document promotes shopping locally in Evanston, Illinois during the holiday season. It recommends advertising options like window clings, print ads in local publications, and listings on websites and social media to promote businesses. It also suggests radio ads on WBEZ and provides the dates for several community events in Evanston throughout November and December, including a tree lighting, open houses, concerts, and shopping events to bring people downtown.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.
