HPN Leading Agencies: 

C2CERN Participating Agencies: 

HPNs collaborative is centered around three Networks, each of whom oversees a set of GPRAs (Government Performance Results Act) within each cradle-to-career segment. Network meetings are used for HPNs partners to develop a shared language and mutually reinforcing activities and build opportunities for collaboration.

HPNs collaborative partners also monitor their solutions (program-level) by measuring the number of participants, how well the program was implemented, and equity outcomes. Over 4,442 (duplicated) residents were served in 2021 through NHEN partner solutions.

NHEN has led key initiatives before and during the COVID-19 pandemic that have been responsive to community needs. Below are some examples of solutions coordinated with HPNs participating agencies and community leaders: 

• COVID-19 School Supply Drive (City of Hayward): In 2020 and 2021, the City of Hayward partnered with Glassbrook, Ruus, and Tyrell elementary schools to provide students with school supplies necessary for remote learning. They also gave every student two books for their home library.
• COVID-19 Tech Lending Library (City of Hayward): The City of Hayward Public Library, working closely with HUSD, loaned computing devices (Chromebooks, tablets) and wifi hotspots to HUSD students, as needed. Families could check-out the technical equipment by completing a Borrowing Policy & Agreement Form and presenting a valid Hayward Public Library card number or HUSD student ID card number. Students can keep the devices for a period of one year, until June 1, 2021. 
• Food and Meal Distribution: Connected families to expanded food distribution programs throughout the city in collaboration with the City of Hayward, Chabot College, Alameda County Food Bank, Hayward Area Recreation and Parks District, Hayward Unified School District. 4Cs of Alameda County also launched an “HPN Community Store” stocked with food and cleaning supplies (donations from community members), and allowing families in need to select what they needed for their homes.
• Neighborhood Clean-Up: HPNs coordinates community clean-up days in partnership with the City of Hayward in response to residents concerns for safety. 
• Housing Relief Funds/Rental Assistance: Collaborated with the City of Hayward and Bay Area Community Services to connect SHPN families to public and private housing relief funds and to share information about rental assistance at all of HPNs events.
• COVID-19 Vaccinations: A partnership between Tiburcio Vasquez Health Center, the Hayward Fire Department, and the Alameda County Department of Public Health, resulted in a COVID-19 vaccination site at the Hayward Fire Station 7 in South Hayward in February, 2021.
• COVID-19 Mobile Strike Team: HPN CRES Team, ACPHD Mobile Strike Team, TVHC Promotoras and neighborhood apartment owners organize events in apartment communities to vaccinate children and their families.
