A 6-Step Approach to Performing a Community Health Assessment
From: Region III Mid-Atlantic Regional Public Health Training Center
Join Region III on March 23-24 2017 for a two day interactive training in Philadelphia, PA. “A 6-Step Approach to Developing a Community Health Assessment” will be focused on community health assessments (CHA) – a process of collecting, analyzing, and reporting information about the needs, strengths, and assets in a community. The workshop will provide participants with six steps to plan, develop, and conduct a CHA. The CHA will aid in documenting and raising awareness about unmet community needs; identify and prioritize areas for improvements; and create a community-partnered process for drawing on assets to implement health improvements.
