Gaps and Barriers Analysis Overview
The Gaps and Barriers Analysis for Prevention Services in Erie County compares the provision of
prevention services within each zip code area to selected risk indicators. Gaps are identified where there
is a mismatch between the prevention services and risk level (e.g. no/low prevention provision & high
risk). First, the distribution of prevention services was evaluated by compiling information about
prevention programs and their locations through the Erie County Prevention Services Information
Center, an online repository for this information. Providers identified the approximate target
population, type of program, and zip code location(s) for their programs. These data were then tallied by
zip code, with individual programs being counted once per zip code of service provision in order to avoid
over counting. For example, a school-based program might be offered in three elementary schools in zip
code 14006 in the Lakeshore Central School District, but this zip code received only one tally for these
programs in order to avoid redundancy. While some programs do not have an explicit locational
component or are home-based, most prevention services are offered at specific location and can thus
be tabulated for this analysis.
Maps were developed from these data to evaluate the spatial distribution of programs in Erie County
and then to examine existing gaps in service provision. The maps of prevention programs are broken
down into five categories that correspond to none, one, a few (2 or 3), some (4 or 5) and many (more
than 5). The gaps and barriers analysis for prevention programs compares the highest level of
aggregated risk for ZIP codes in Erie County with the number of recurring prevention programs. Risk
Indicators Database (RIDB) measures were summed and then re-quartiled for this aggregated risk
measure; the locations with the highest level of risk are those with aggregated measures that fall in the
fourth quartiles of either ZIP codes in Erie County Excluding City of Buffalo and ZIP codes in the City of
Buffalo Only.

Descriptive Maps of Prevention Program Locations
o Most ZIP codes in Erie County have some form of location-specific prevention activity,
with notable exceptions in the more rural eastern and southeastern portions of the
county and the Town of Clarence.
o Location-specific environmental programs cover only portions of the county outside of
the City of Buffalo. Within Buffalo, programs are few and are located on the east and
west sides of the city.
o Other environmental programs are not location specific and cover the county as a
whole. These include mass media (e.g. TV and radio) programs and are not represented
on the maps.
o School-based programs are concentrated in the City of Buffalo and in suburban areas to
the north and east of the city; notable lack of programs in the northeast, southern and
southeast parts of the county.
o Recurring programs exhibit a similar pattern to School-based programs
Maps of Highest Risk Locations with Prevention Programs
o Erie County Excluding City of Buffalo
 ZIP codes with highest aggregated risk have few recurring prevention programs.
More urbanized zip codes north of the City of Buffalo have between 2 and 3
2
o
programs, while high-risk areas in the southern end of the County have between
1 and 3 programs. ZIP code 14219, which comprises the most northern portion
of the Town of Hamburg and which is at the highest risk, has no recurring
prevention programs.
City of Buffalo Only
 Locations of highest aggregated risk have 9 or more recurring prevention
programs.
 Some locations in lower aggregated risk levels receive high levels of recurring
prevention program service.
