As with adults, both professionals and community members viewed type of health insurance to be the greatest concern
identified for children and teens accessing quality care (see Exhibit 82). Professionals and community members also
agreed that intellectual disabilities are significant barriers among children and teens. However, professionals found
language to be a greater barrier, whereas community members identified physical disabilities as a bigger barrier.

Community Services Improvement: Good health is not just a reflection on affordable, quality healthcare. Health is
impacted by a variety of factors, deemed social determinants of health, that range from quality education to safe and
healthy environments. We asked respondents to identify the (top three) most important community health services that
they felt needed to be strengthened in order to improve health and healthcare for both children and adults in the
community. Professionals and community members identified access to mental health providers in schools (Pre-K - 12)
and healthy food access as the top services in need of strengthening. Professionals viewed safe and affordable housing
as an additional area in need of improvement, while community members found safe communities to be more in need of
improvement. See Exhibit 83 for the list of community services included in the 2022 CHA.
