Community Health Needs Assessment
This Quad-County Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) serves as a critical phase in the overall effort to improve community health. Through the collaborative CHNA process, we create a snapshot of community health perceptions, health behaviors, and disparities. We develop an inventory of community assets and resources available to catalyze progress, and we reach consensus on our top community health priorities.
