Rankings and Roadmaps, n.d.). These measures were chosen in order to reveal positive and
negative health trends of Crenshaw County compared to the state and national level.
Discussion of Health Trends
Crenshaw County has an overall ranking for health outcomes of 27 out of 67 counties in
Alabama and 26 out of 67 for length of life rankings. Adult obesity in Crenshaw County was
consistently higher than the state and national average through the years 2004 to 2017.
Physical inactivity is another measure that correlates with obesity due to the fact that it has
remained consistently higher than the state and national level during 2004 through 2017.
Alcohol-impaired driving deaths demonstrated a huge increase for Crenshaw County in 2019
which showed the county at 100% of driving deaths with alcohol involvement and Alabama
at 27% and the U.S. at 26%. Sexually Transmitted infections in Crenshaw County have
gotten worse over the last several years. Crenshaw County was noted to have an increase in
Chlamydia cases in 2016 with a decrease seen in 2017 into 2018 but were still consistently
higher than the state and national average. There was no significant trend noted with the
percentage of unemployment, but within recent years it seems to improve in Crenshaw
County, Alabama, and the U.S. The trend noted for children in poverty showed nothing
significant, however the percentage in Crenshaw County has been notably higher than the
state and national averages between the years of 2002 and 2019. Violent Crimes per 100,000
population in Crenshaw County went from being lower than the state and national numbers
to higher in 2011. Crenshaw County demonstrated increased numbers over the state and
national level until 2016 when there was a more than 300 count drop. All the information
collected for this section of the data brief was obtained from the County Health Rankings and
Roadmaps website for Crenshaw County, Alabama. The graphs below provide excellent
references of better or worsening trends over a period of time in Crenshaw County along with
comparing these results to the state and national measures.

Comparison of Data
The information in the table above was collected from the County Health Rankings and
Roadmaps website which compares the data of Crenshaw County to the state level as well as
the national level, or top U.S. performers. Top performers have the highest-ranking data and
were used as a reference for benchmarking where measures should rank. The table
demonstrates a very low percentage of access to exercise opportunities in Crenshaw County
when compared to Alabama and the U.S. The unemployment percentage as well as the
percentage of severe housing problems are closely ranked to the top U.S. performers. It is
also noted violent crimes have taken a dramatic drop in Crenshaw County for the year 2016
in comparison to previous years starting at 2007. Sexually transmitted infections (STI’s) were
also indicated as worsening for Crenshaw County. In 2016, sexually transmitted infections
significantly rose to 1, 568 cases which was almost three times the state and national results.
The data for 2018 displayed that there was a decrease for STI’s, but Crenshaw County still
maintained a higher case load than the state and national cases.

D. SUMMARY
Significant Finding(s)
The health issue chosen to address for Crenshaw County is sexually transmitted infections
(STI’s). Figure 4 under the topic of Health Trend 4 above, depicts how there have been spikes
in cases throughout the last several years with a significant increase in cases for 2016. Even
though there was a decrease in the years following 2016, Crenshaw County still reports
higher numbers than the state and national levels. Therefore, this data demonstrates the need
for an action plan.
Action Plan(s)
Crenshaw County remains to have higher cases of sexually transmitted diseases. According to the
Alabama Department of Public Health (2021), chlamydia, gonorrhea, and syphilis were all noted to
have an increase in cases. It was determined the age ranges of 15-19 and 20-24 were the high-risk
groups most affected. After more in-depth research, it was discovered education in the school
systems was a factor that was severely lacking across the entire state. Alabama currently does not
have a mandate for sex education to be provided and the state policy regarding this type of
education is outdated and contains many inaccuracies. Alabama needs an up-to-date policy with
medically accurate information and teaching requirements to allow students to receive the proper
education to assist with decreasing the amount of STI diagnoses. This would require the
involvement of the Board of Education along with all school systems such as teachers and school
nurses as well as Health Departments for each county and primary care providers.
a. Services or Programs
After researching sexually transmitted infections more in-depth, it was discovered one specific
factor that was severely lacking in Crenshaw County was education. Unfortunately, Alabama
currently does not have a mandate for sex education in the school systems. Due to this lack of
education of STI’s, the increased cases when compared to national level were not a surprising find
and one can expect cases would continue to rise. An action plan to mandate sex education in the
state of Alabama therefore providing up-to-date medically accurate education for STI causes,
signs/symptoms, testing/treatment, and prevention to all student’s grades 7th-12th yearly at
minimum. This would allow for better education to be provided in Crenshaw County regarding safe
sex practices and preventing the spread of STI’s. Parents of students will also be involved and have
educational documents provided to them as well.
b. Raise Public Awareness and Promote Public Engagement
There are potential barriers when initiating this type of education to students across the
county and state level. Students who are home-schooled or in virtual school should be
allowed to receive the same sex education as students who attend classes in-person. One form
of informatics that should be used in this situation is e-learning. Electronic signs for facilities
could also be utilized to notify the public of STI testing sites. For example, the Crenshaw
County Health Department displays a message stating they are a testing and treatment center
for sexually transmitted infections. Social media could also play a huge part in allowing the
county to receive information on topics related to sexually transmitted infections and, if
possible, provide one day per month for free testing to be performed at specific sites.
11
c. Monitoring and Evaluating Action Plan
Monitoring the rate of sexually transmitted infections in Crenshaw County should be easily
identified by utilizing the Alabama Department of Public Health website as well as the
County Health Rankings and Roadmaps website. These sites both provide information
regarding the number of infections each year. By monitoring these sites, we will know
whether the education and awareness being provided is effective or if there needs to be
another action plan in place to help decrease the number of infections.
E. DATA SOURCES & METHODS
The method for preparing this data brief was by utilizing the information provided from the
County Health Rankings and Roadmaps as well as the United States Census Bureau. The
County Health Ranking and Roadmaps information was utilized to complete sections B and
C of this health data brief. The website for that specific information was from
https://www.countyhealthrankings.org/app/alabama/2021/rankings/crenshaw/county/outcome
s/overall/snapshot. The information collected from the United States Census Bureau was used
for section A and was obtained from
https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/crenshawcountyalabama,US/PTST045221#qf-
flag-Z. The map of Crenshaw County that was used in section A was copied from Maps of
