What is a CHA and a CHIP?

2. Community Health Improvement Plan (2021 and previous years located in Department Documents)

• Data from the Community Health Assessment and community input is analyzed to determine key health focus areas.
• Volunteer workgroups are formed around each focus area that work to address the health issue over 5 years.

2023 Virtual CHIP Summit: On 2/23/2023, about 30 members from our workgroups, staff, stakeholders, partners, and community members joined together, virtually (Thanks February Snow Storm!) to learn more about health equity, family, youth, and community engagement, and the Healthy Brain Initiative.  The morning was spent building our understanding, brainstorming ideas, and listening to each other's input.  The time contributed to this project is greatly appreciated by our staff.
