Jackson County Community Health Improvement Plan

Abstract

This CHIP is a product of the Schneck Medical Center Community Health Needs Assessment, a Community Conversation event, and many workgroup and taskforce meetings. As a result of the latter, the significant needs in Jackson County were identified as: Access to Care, Tobacco and Substance Use, Nutrition, Physical Activity and Weight, and Mental Health. The CHIP’s goals and strategies address these needs by building partnerships with organizations and leaders established in the community who influence the environment of health in Jackson County.
