Acknowledgements The Mississippi Health and Hunger Atlas is an outcome of a cooperative endeavor of faculty and students at the University of Mississippi. Our efforts would not have been possible, however, without the support of individuals in public agencies who shared data on agency programs with us. Specifically, in Mississippi, we received wonderful assistance in the retrieval of information from Paul Nelson and Larry Strebeck (Mississippi Department of Human Services) and Sujith Ramachandran (Assistant Professor of Pharmacy Administration, UM). Additionally, special thanks to the University of Missouri’s Interdisciplinary Center for Food Security, that provided initial inspiration for this atlas.

Background This atlas looks at two important problems in Mississippi—the extent of food insecurity and barriers to health. It also gauges how well public and private programs are doing in meeting the needs of Mississippians who may have difficulty in acquiring sufficient amounts and qualities of food or accessing the healthcare system. Food insecurity rates in Mississippi are consistently and statistically higher than national averages—having been ranked as #1 or #2 for highest food insecurity rate every year for the past 15 years (USDA-ERS). Additionally, as national trends point toward declining rates of food insecurity, the percentage of the state population in Mississippi food insecure continues to rise. These increased rates of food insecurity are tied to, among other hardships, poor health, especially in children. The combination of food insecurity and poor health has important economic and social costs, including income loss, work absenteeism, higher demand for public benefits and social services, and increased health care expenditures. In terms of specific health outcomes, obesity is a disease strongly associated with poverty and food insecurity, namely, a result of poor diet and access to quality foods. Obesity in children among low socioeconomic status (SES) households is a growing national trend (Singh et al. 2010). Children from these vulnerable households are two times more likely to be obese than their high SES counterparts and 1.7 times more likely to be severely obese (Singh et al. 2010; Skelton et al. 2009). Mississippi is on the frontlines of fighting this obesity epidemic with more than 40 percent of children in the state

obese or overweight. The implications for Mississippi’s health system are significant. Medical costs have been estimated at $19,000 more for an obese child over their lifetime, compared to a healthy weight child (Finkelstein, Graham, & Malhotra 2014). Left unchecked, obesity in Mississippi could cost the state nearly $4 billion by 2018 (MSDH 2015). In part, the propensity toward obesity among children in lower SES households is a product of poor environments with limited/poor quality food resources and limited access to quality healthcare (Hill & Peters 1998, Sallis & Glanz 2006, Sallis & Glanz 2009). This relationship between childhood obesity and environment highlights the need for quality county-level data on local context.

Goals Because the state of Mississippi consistently ranks in the bottom for a number of demographic, economic, food security, and health statistics, national thresholds for differentiating tiers

of severity become useless in determining variation within the state (i.e. all counties are in the bottom tier). This atlas is designed to normalize the values to the state, allowing community stakeholders, policy makers, and other researchers to see the spatial differences in a range of food security and health related indicators. To this end there are five primary goals:

1. Raise Mississippian’s awareness of the extent and depth of food insecurity and health needs in their own state, regions, and counties;

2. Increase Mississippians’ knowledge of the extent of the work of public and private programs and the success of these program in reaching vulnerable populations;

3. Reveal geographic patterns, including regional and county-level differences in hunger and health need and performance in our state;

4. Provide measures of need and performance that can be updated on a periodic basis and compared to assess trends in need and performance variables over time;

5. Help public and private decision-makers assess food insecurity and healthcare needs and program performance as a means for improving the delivery of human, technical, and fiscal resources to residents and regions requiring assistance.

Reading the Atlas County Tables and State Maps This atlas provides information on indicators related to health and hunger need and program performance in meeting citizen

needs at the county level. We have identified nine indicators related to health “need,” seven indicators related to hunger “need,” five indicators related to health “performance,” and four indicators related to hunger “performance.” For each indicator, we have used the most recent data available, which ranges from 2013 to 2016 calendar year and the 2016 state fiscal year (July 1, 2015 – June 30, 2016). In the county pages, which comprise the majority of this report, readers will find county-level information on (A) economic and demographic indicators, (B) health and hunger need indicators, and (C) health and hunger performance indicators. The following few pages of this atlas provide an overview of these three categories and information on how to read the county tables. Information depicting how to read the state maps is also included in this section. County Profile Indicators At the bottom of each county page is an economic profile that lists the demographic and economic status of each county. This profile provides context for each county because health and hunger indicators are often closely correlated to food security, diet, and health status. Within the economic profile, we provide both the county estimate for each indicator as well as the state estimate.

Need and Performance Indicators The purpose of the “Need Indicators” is to provide measures of the extent of food insecurity, hunger, and health disparities in each Mississippi county. The “Performance Indicators” provide county level measures of the extent to which residents are participating in public programs intended to help cope with health needs and food insecurity and hunger. Assessing county level variation and need allows one to see barriers to health and hunger access and the success of programs’ performance established to address needs those needs. How to Read the Need and Performance Indicator Tables The left side of each table provides information on five indicators of hunger performance and four indicators on health performance. Three columns of information are presented for each variable. To demonstrate how to read this information, here is the first performance indicator, Primary Care Physicians per 100,000, for Adams County (see Page 23).

Ø The first column, “County,” reports the result for the

county on this indicator. In this case, there are 81.3 primary care physicians per 100,000 of the population in Adams County.

Ø The second column, “State,” shows the average across all counties for the state of Mississippi for the indicator. In this case, Mississippi’s average is 53.8 primary care physicians per 100,000 of the population.

Ø The third column is “Rank.” This last column indicates

the county’s rank in comparison with all other Mississippi counties. Individual county results are divided into five quintiles to reveal whether a county’s need or performance is in the top 20 percent, second highest 20 percent, and so on. The labels under “county rank” indicate the following groups:

o Very High: 80th to 100th percentile

o High: 60th to 79th percentile

o Average: 40th to 59th percentile

o Low: 20th to 39th percentile

o Very Low: 1st to 19th percentile

The example on Page 23 shows that the level in Adams County, in comparison to other counties, is in the high quintile for primary care physicians per 100,000 people.

State Maps We provide maps for some of the health and hunger need and performance indicators to visually demonstrate the patterns among Mississippi’s 82 counties. The maps allow the reader to quickly and easily note the rankings of all counties in the state. Each map divides the state into five equal fifths, or quintiles, based on the calculations of the rankings, discussed earlier, for each county in the state. The quintiles on each need and performance indicator map are arranged from very low to very high. Counties with a very low ranking are in the lowest 20 percent for need or performance. Being in the lowest 20 percent or first quintile means counties either have low need or low performance, depending on the indicator. Counties with a very high ranking are in the highest 20 percent counties for need or performance. For example, a very high ranking for percent of food insecure individuals means that county is in the highest 20 percent, or fifth quintile. This denotes the highest need group for percentages of food insecure people in that county.

General Trends An examination of the county profiles and maps provides us with important insights into both levels of need and county efforts to meet that need. Generally, the highest need counties are concentrated in the Delta region, particularly as it relates to issues of food access and food insecurity. However, an

assessment of performance allows us to challenge common perceptions of these counties, and in fact, demonstrates that a number of Delta counties have the highest ranking for performance. What this assessment also allows us to see is that there are a number of central and southwest counties that rank low on the performance despite being high need counties. It is also worthy of noting that within the state of Mississippi, the number of high need counties with low performance is more than double (17) in number than high need counties with high performance (7). A closer examination also reveals a number of outlier counties. For example, Quitman and Issaquena Counties, like many of the surrounding Delta counties, are both high need, but unlike many of the surrounding counties that are high performing, both have very low performance. Or Pike and Neshoba counties—high performing counties surrounded by low performing counties. Though this atlas is not designed to be an exhaustive analysis, it begins to help provide an overview of the state of food security and health in the state and provides an important starting point for thoughtful consideration of how private and public sector responses to inequality are contributing to the welfare of Mississippians.

"The teen summary tables contain statistics on induced terminations (abortions) and pregnancies (combination of births, reportable fetal deaths, and induced terminations). Many Mississippi residents have induced terminations outside of Mississippi. At the time this information was posted, less than half of the 2015 induced terminations from Tennessee had been received. Producing statistics without these records would seriously underestimate the numbers and rates dependent on these induced terminations. Once these records have been received and edited, this page will be updated and the teen summary tables added."

Overall Need Rank (MAP) The Overall Need Rank is a single composite measure of all 16 health and hunger need indicators for each county presented in this atlas. The 16 indicators are weighted evenly by dividing 100 by all 16 indicators. This means each need indicator is weighted 6.25 percent. We then ranked each county 1-82 for all 16 indicators. A lower rank signifies that a county has a lower level of need and a higher rank has a higher level of need. So, a rank of one indicates the lowest need and a rank of 82 indicates the highest need. Then we multiplied each county ranking by 6.25 percent. To get the composite overall need we summed all 16 indicators. To map the overall need rank we took the sum for each county and divided it into quintiles.

Overall Performance Rank (MAP) The Overall Performance Rank is a single composite measure of all nine health and hunger performance indicators for each county presented in this atlas. We weighted six of the nine indicators by dividing 100 by all nine indicators. In the overall performance, we included: Primary Care Physicians per 100,000, Other Primary Care Physicians per 100,000, Medicaid Enrollees per Primary Care Provider, SNAP Enrollment (% Eligible), SNAP Enrollment: Children (% Eligible), and the Local Sustainability Resilience Index. This means each of the six performance indicators is weighted 16.67 percent. We then ranked each county 1-82 for all six indicators. A lower rank signifies that a county has a higher level of performance and a higher rank has a lower level of performance. So, a rank of one indicates the highest performance and a rank of 82 indicates the lowest performance. Then we multiplied each county ranking by 16.67 percent. To get the composite overall performance, we summed all six indicators. To map the overall performance rank, we took the sum for each county and divided it into quintiles.

Mississippi Health and Hunger Atlas 2017, Page 21

Comparing Need and Performance Having compiled county-level composite ranks in the areas of hunger and health need and performance indicators, a final and useful step is to compare how each county ranks in terms of the combination of their ranks on need and performance. In essence, we can ask whether counties that have high need are doing comparatively well or comparatively poorly in addressing those needs. Counties with high needs that have high performance rankings, for example, are likely more successful in serving the hunger and health needs of their populations, while counties with high needs but low performance, are potential target locations for increased public and private sector attention. We used several steps to perform this analysis. First, we labeled counties as high need if their composite “overall need” ranking fell in the upper two quintiles (very high or high). Second, we designated counties as low need if their composite “overall need” ranking scored in the bottom two quintiles, (low or very low). Third, we designated counties as high performance if their composite “overall performance” ranking was in the upper two quintiles, (high or very high). Lastly, we labeled counties as low performance if their composite “overall performance” ranking was in the bottom two quintiles (low or very low). We did not include counties that scored in the average, or middle quintile, in either of these composite ranks in this analysis, but they appear in the map as the gray counties.

The designation of counties as either high need or low need, and as either high performance or low performance, offers the possibility of counties falling into one of four categories:

1. High need/low performance 2. High need/low performance 3. Low need/high performance 4. Low need/low performance
