Activities or mission (Part I)

The organization is a regional planning organization focused on improving health and human service access and delivery.

  • Community planning focused on health and human services is the primary program of the Organization. Key program initiatives include: - Addressing the priority of safe, stable, attainable housing: The organization is a partner with Johnson County and its cities in the effort to address the issues of those who are housing cost-burdened, housing insecure, and those experiencing homelessness. It provides data and support to local jurisdictions for whom housing is a priority issue. - Homelessness: The organization is Johnson County's lead agency facilitating the Continuum of Care on Homelessness (CoC). The CoC is comprised of more than 75 organizations representing health and human services, health and mental health care, education, cities and the County, corrections and law enforcement, state organizations and the faith community. - Public Policy Advocacy: The organization convenes a statewide coalition of partners, the Kansas Housing Advocacy Network (KHAN). Drawing on research, data analysis, and the experiences of stakeholders and those with lived experience with homelessness, the organization and KHAN develop proactive education, messaging, and advocacy on the issue of housing insecurity and homelessness in Johnson County and throughout the state of Kansas. - Equity and Community Engagement: The organization works to promote health equity in Johnson County by engaging community members and providing them with the knowledge and tools to become effective advocates in their own communities. UCS brings together residents with diverse knowledge and experiences to be a part of health equity solutions and equips them with the knowledge and tools to be engaged. - Drug and Alcoholism Council of Johnson County (DAC): Facilitated by the organization, the DAC works in partnership with Johnson County government and cities to recommend the allocation of the Substance Use Continuum of Care Fund (SUF) in accordance with Kansas statutes. The SUF includes Alcohol Tax Fund (ATF) dollars and Opioid Settlement Funds (OSF). In 2024 UCS became the fiscal agent on behalf of SUF contributing jurisdictions. Volunteers who comprise the DAC manage a structured, accountable, and competitive grant review and recommendation process to award the funds to school districts, public and nonprofit organizations. - Human Service Fund (HSF): The HSF pools dollars from County and city governments to provide financial support to nonprofit programs that meet the needs of County residents with income at or near the federal poverty level. The organization administers the HSF and leads the Human Service Fund Committee in managing a structured, accountable, and competitive grant review and recommendation process.
