Community Health Assessments and Community Health Improvement Plan
Partnership participates in the Community Health Assessments (CHA) (sometimes called a CHNA) and Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) processes conducted by the local health jurisdiction in each of our 24 counties. This collaboration enhances Partnership’s ability to identify needs and assets within our members’ communities, and strengthens our relationships with community partners. In addition, we develop and share annual data reports that capture a wide range of community-specific data points for each county.
Below you will find CHAs and CHIPs for each Partnership county in addition to how Partnership participated with the county.
