dc.descriptionThe Rooted Project, established within the Daviess County Health Department, serves as a community hub dedicated to building strong, healthy roots in Daviess County. Through active community engagement, it delivers healthcare, educational programs, and vital resources directly to residents. To address the county’s evolving health needs, the Health Department partnered with the Indiana University Center for Rural Engagement beginning in 2024 to develop a sustainable strategy for Rooted. As part of the Sustaining Hoosier Communities initiative, this collaboration aims to create a resource center that meets the needs of Daviess County’s growing and diversifying population, informed by community assessments and visioning sessions with key stakeholders. During Summer 2025, a graduate capstone class within the Indiana University Paul H. O’Neill School of Public and Environmental Affairs was commissioned to develop this resulting plan that follows a three-phased approach designed to establish a robust foundation for a comprehensive, one-stop center connecting residents to essential services, ultimately in the form of a standalone 501(c)(3) nonprofit entity.
