These team members conducted a <br />wide and lengthy search of data on all indicators or risk. County and school district records <br />and crime reports and data were reviewed and individual interviews were conducted. The <br />data was organized in a systematic manner and analyzed in order to identify the areas of risk <br />at highest priority for the target population. <br /> <br />The following is a summary of the data found through the research for the original grant <br />application, which has remained fairly consistent. Most of the data collected come from <br />sources that gather information at long-term intervals, therefore, there is not much change in <br />the baseline data. There are also areas where staff have confirmed the prevalence of a <br />particular risk factor based on their observations which are referred to in the narrative. <br /> <br />COMMUNITY <br /> <br />RISK FACTOR: <br />INDICATOR: <br />RISK LEVEL: <br /> <br />Availability of Drugs <br />Liquor Sales Outlets <br />High <br /> <br />The indicators measuring liquor sales outlets illustrates that this community is at high risk for <br />the availability of drugs. In Orange County there is an average of one liquor store or <br />"drinking place" every 12.8 miles. In Santa Ana, the ratio is one every 4.5 miles; almost <br />'three times the county average. This remains to be true for most of Santa Aha and certainly <br />in the target area. <br /> <br />In the target area, parents of children attending Carver Elementary School who organized a <br />parent patrol, continue to walk their children to school primarily because of harassment of <br />public inebriants. The problems of availability of drugs remain high in the target area due to <br />many liquor sales outlets being located very near to schools. <br /> <br />RISK FACTOR: <br />INDICATOR: <br />RISK LEVEL: <br /> <br />Availability of Firearms <br />Expert Interview <br />High <br /> <br />Archival data for this risk factor are unavailable. Statistics are not maintained on the number <br /> <br /> <br />
