We are pleased to present the Greendale Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) for 2021-2025 to everyone in the Greendale community. This plan is a combined effort of the Health Department and many community partners and is intended to be a call to action and a guide for community stakeholders to improving the health of all who live, work, play and pray in the Village of Greendale.
The CHIP includes goals, explanation of need, and action steps for the priority health focus areas identified by the community and key stakeholders. These focus areas are Mental Health, Physical Activity and Nutrition, Older Adult Health, and Substance Misuse Prevention.

National Public Health Week Food Drive

The Greendale Health Department would like to sincerely thank the community for their generosity during our National Public Health Week food drive, as well as the Village Departments and local businesses that volunteered to be food donation sites.
Together, we collected over 330 lbs. of non-perishable food items for local food pantries! We could not have done this without the support of our amazing community. Thank you for furthering our mission of being the Healthiest and Happiest Greendale!
Greendale residents and surrounding community members who need food assistance are encouraged to call the St. Alphonsus Food Pantry (414) 514-4400. Individuals and families can also call 2-1-1 or visit www.211.org for food and other resources.
