A. Target Population

Demographic Profile: Jackson County, Missouri, is in the western portion of Missouri,

bordering the state of Kansas. Jackson County is a Metropolitan area that includes the cities of

Kansas City, Lee’s Summit, Independence, Belton, Independence, Grandview, Raymore, and

many other small cities; the county’s total population, according to the 2020 United States

Census, is around 717,000 (United States Census Bureau, n.d.). Jackson County covers about

605 miles and is listed as the 54th largest county in Missouri by total area (United States Census

Bureau, n.d.). The county is ranked in the lower middle range for health outcomes, 25%-50%,

within Missouri, so it is the state's least healthy county (County Health Rankings & Roadmaps,

2023). The population breakdown is 62 percent non-Hispanic white, 23 percent non-Hispanic

black, and 10 percent Hispanic, with 51 percent female and more than 60 percent aged between

18-64 (County Health Rankings & Roadmaps, 2023).

Priority Population: Sexually active men and women ages 12-30 due to elevated risk of

sexually transmitted infections that have worsened throughout the years; 500 out of every

100,000 have been diagnosed with HIV, and about 900 out of every 100,000 have been

diagnosed with another sexually transmitted infection other than HIV (County Health Rankings

& Roadmaps, 2023).

Social Determinants of Health: In this population, the social determinants of health

include poverty, age (County Health Rankings & Roadmaps, 2023), and lower-than-average life

expectancy due to violence, as Jackson County houses one of the top 10 most dangerous cities in

America (Bloom, 2022).

Barriers to accessing healthcare: Some barriers to healthcare are lack of health insurance,

unemployment, and lack of money for testing (County Health Rankings & Roadmaps, 2023).
