Get Off The List: Organization Profiles |
Edgecombe County Manager, Eric Evans, has been championing a county-wide initiative called "Get Off the Lists". Mr. Evans worked with former County Manager, Lorenzo Carmon, who used to express his frustration with a common observation: that Edgecombe County was often found at the top or the bottom of many of the lists used to measure a county’s success, health, wealth, and development.
Currently, the Edgecombe County community and its residents continue to face difficult challenges each day and have limited access to many resources. To begin to combat these challenges and as a call to action, Mr. Evans is urging community members to work together to “get off the lists”!
Using data from the County Healthy Rankings, Edgecombe stakeholders selected 4 focus areas to concentrate on and impact:
1. Youth and Family
2. Education & Workforce Development
3. Health Equity
4. Affordable Housing
