Task force submits final report on closure and reimagining of city jail

Atlanta City Detention Center.

The Reimagining Atlanta City Detention Center (ACDC) Task Force has submitted its final report to Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms offering options on what to do with the city jail and related policing policies.

In support of community organizers’ call for closure of the jail, as well the declining number of daily inmates and increased operating costs, Bottoms signed legislation in May 2019 to create the task force.

The task force envisions the jail site as a multi-service center that would create housing opportunities in a range of forms – affordable housing, supportive housing, sobering beds, shelter beds, safe-haven beds, or crisis-intervention beds for people experiencing a behavioral health episode that does not require hospitalization. The space would also house compatible, revenue-generating activities that are consistent with the mission and values of the space.

The task force recommended four options for the jail property in Downtown Atlanta, ranging from changing the facade ($40 million) to completely rebuilding the site into a Center for Equity campus ($108 million). Another would create a “Downtown Anchor” ($65.4 million) that would also allow mixed-use, while the other is to completely demolish the building and transform the land into a park or memorial ( no estimated cost).

The task force is also recommending changes to city ordinances including the repeal of quasi-criminal city ordinances where the behavior prohibited by the ordinance is already criminalized by a parallel state statute; repeal of city-only ordinances related to animal control; repeal of a city ordinance regarding discharge of a firearm within city limits, recognizing other, more severe, criminal charges are now better employed to
address this dangerous behavior; repeal of open container on a sidewalk ordinance; conversion from quasi-criminal to civil of city ordinance violations relating to housing, building code, zoning, and other business and land use-related ordinances; and conversion to civil of city-only ordinances which relate to violating public park
rules and other public space violations.

“More than a year ago, I signed legislation to begin reforming our approach to public safety through a collaborative process to close and reimagine ACDC as a resource for empowering our communities,” said Mayor Bottoms. “Thank you to the members of this Task Force for your tireless efforts to ensure that all who call Atlanta home have not only a second chance, but for most, a first chance to have access to opportunity. Together, we can build a smarter and fairer system to equip Atlantans with the tools needed for success in the 21st Century.”

Mayor Bottoms’ proposed FY21 budget will include an amendment to reduce the Department of Corrections $18.9 million to $3.6 million until the jail closes; move $13.5 million and the majority of the jail staff to the Mayor’s Office of Constituent Services to broaden and enhance community-based initiatives; and $1.85 million to other city departments.

The Task Force consisted of 52 members from a cross-section of individuals from the City of Atlanta, Fulton County, DeKalb County, service providers, community organizations, residents, the academic community, the business community, the faith community, public safety representatives, and elected officials.

The recommendations in the Task Force Report includes four design proposals, over 10 City and State statute amendments, and four focused service areas.

Food Network star Chef David Rose serves meals to Emory Decatur Hospital’s frontline medical workers

Chef David Rose serves up meals to Emory DeKalb’s frontline workers.

Big Green Egg, Nissan Trucks and Sysco joined Chef David Rose on Wednesday to honor and serve frontline medical workers who have been battling COVID-19 at Emory Decatur Hospital.

The team  trimmed and smoked over 500 pounds of chicken thighs, preparing 1,000 lunches for the Emory Decatur team.

Big Green Eggs were used to smoke chicken.

The idea was the brainchild of Rose – a Food Network personality, national brand ambassador for Nissan USA and Big Green Egg, and private events chef –  as he wanted to give back to Atlanta’s frontline heroes during the pandemic. As a chef, the best way he could show his appreciation is by doing what he does best, cooking.

The team got together at 6 a.m. on June 10to start cooking at Atlanta’s PREP Kitchen, who generously donated their space. They trucked the finished lunches over to Emory Dekalb and served 1,000 lunches of Smoked Chicken Thighs, mac n’ cheese, and potato chips by noon at the hospital.

“Treat others as you would wish to be treated, always resonated with me,” said Chef Rose. “Such an honor and blessing to be able to provide this token of our appreciation. Their selfless nature in the face of adversity is truly remarkable. To our heroes, I say thank you!”

Watch video of the event with messages from the Emory Decatur staff.

Anthem, Inc. Leads Collaboration to Develop Tools to Help Public Officials and Businesses Make Informed Decisions Related to COVID-19

Anthem, Inc. introduced today a suite of digital tools that provide in- depth, trusted, and aggregated information for multiple stakeholders to use in making informed, data- driven decisions during the COVID-19 pandemic. Led by Anthem, Inc.’s new C19 Explorer and C19 Navigator, these decision support tools are also designed to assist public health officials and business leaders as they plan for re-opening and return-to-workplace. This work is part of Anthem’s best-in-class data scientists and clinicians collaborating with a global alliance of leaders, such as TM, CloudMedx, xy.ai, and doc.ai.

“During these challenging times, we understand the need for a central location of reliable information,” said Rajeev Ronanki, Chief Digital Officer at Anthem, Inc. “We continue to leverage the power and capabilities of data and Artificial Intelligence to provide insights to support decision makers as they work to combat this pandemic. This collaborative effort to introduce C19 Explorer and C19 Navigator is another example of Anthem’s commitment to leadership, innovation, and agility as we work to support our local communities.”

Anthem will make these tools easily accessible to stakeholders through its new portal, which will contain links to the suite of COVID-related tools Anthem has introduced in the past several weeks to help consumers. The tools include:

  • C19 Explorer: Intended for government officials, healthcare leaders and community leaders, C19 Explorer provides intuitive, interactive dashboards on the COVID-19 situation – both current and predictive – regarding areas such as infection rate and community risk scores. It also features helpful analysis and visualization that leaders may use in assessing a community’s readiness to re-open and planning next steps. The dashboards combine public and private data at the federal, state, and county levels.

  • C19 Navigator: C19 Navigator is designed for Anthem employer customers, including states and other governmental entities, for their plan populations, to provide clinical insight and predictions, as these organizations consider their next steps on how to reopen. Medicare and Medicaid officials will be able to access analytics they may find helpful as they work with their populations during this time. C19 Navigator will continue to evolve to meet the needs of employers and government officials. Anthem employer customers, as well as Medicare and Medicaid officials, should work with their Anthem business partners regarding access to this tool.

  • Sydney Care: Digital-first consumer application that delivers personalized engagement and real- time access to health information, telehealth services, and AI-driven symptom checker. Sydney Care also allows consumers to connect with virtual primary care, via text or video chat; as well as take a coronavirus assessment and find a COVID-19 testing location. The app also has a new Daily COVID-19 Check-In feature, a survey intended to aid companies in assessing individual’s readiness to enter the workplace on a daily basis.

  • Safer Entry to Workplace (via Biometric Passport): Biometric Passport includes the ability to evaluate employees’ possible COVID-19 symptoms through daily attestations, empowering employers to use this information for strategic planning. This tool collects a user’s health information through a simple, daily survey and generates an encrypted QR code. Responses stay on a user’s phone – and are never shared with the employers. Employers will only know whether or not the employee is granted access to enter based on their requirements.

  • Family Caregiver Support (via Ianacare): Through the ianacare free mobile app, consumers can mobilize personal social circles of friends, family, coworkers and neighbors to coordinate practical help with everyday needs such as dropping off groceries, picking up medications from the pharmacy, virtual check-ins and emotional connection.

  • Mental Health Resources (via PsychHub): PsychHub is a COVID-19 mental health resource hub that provides a range of resources designed to help people, their families, and care providers cope with pandemic-related stress brought on by social isolation, job loss, and other challenges.

  • Social Care Network (via Aunt Bertha): Anthem has partnered with Aunt Bertha, a leading social care network, which helps connect individuals and families to free and reduced-cost social services in their communities. These programs include COVID-19-specific assistance, such as food delivery and help paying for bills. All consumers can access the more than 350,000 programs, which are available in every zip code across the U.S.

    In addition, the portal will include links to new tools and resources that Anthem creates to help government officials, local leaders, employers, business leaders, and individuals with their decision- making as they begin to navigate and adjust to evolving community and workplace environments due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
