Partnership4Health Community Health Assessment (CHA) 2018-2024
At least every five years, Partnership4Health conducts a Community Health Assessment (CHA) to learn more about the health of our community. Local
stakeholders such as hospitals, clinics, county administrators, commissioners, community organizations, and community members are invited to engage
in this process as a collaborative effort. Several data sources are utilized to develop the CHA, including community surveys developed with healthcare
systems, data obtained from stakeholder meetings, data from the MN student surveys, data obtained from the MN Department of Health, and the CDC, etc.
Partnership4Health facilitates an evidence-based process to identify priority health issues in our communities based on the analysis of data obtained
through the CHA process; this analysis is then used to inform priority action steps for the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP).

The 2020-2024 P4H-CHB CHIP systematically addresses priority issues identified during the 2018-2019 Community Health Assessment (CHA). Analysis
of health, social, and economic data as well as community input led to the identification of the top health priorities: Mental Well-Being and Dental
Access. The CHIP details objectives, strategies, and action steps for public health and community partner actions aimed at these priority areas.

Partnership4Health Strategic Plan (2019-2024)
The strategic plan defines a community health board's roles, priorities, and direction over three to five years. It determines what the
organization plans to achieve, how the organization will achieve it, and how the organization will know what has been achieved. The strategic plan
guides decision-making on allocating resources and pursuing strategies and priorities. The community health board's strategic plan focuses on the
entire community health board (Source: PHAB Standard 5.3 [PDF]).
