Steering Committee

The Steering Committee is composed of a dedicated team of community leaders that advocate for community health. The primary purpose of the Steering Committee is to provide leadership for ongoing Community Health Needs Assessments (CHNA) and Community Health Improvement Plans (CHIP). The Steering Committee is a vehicle to serve as the backbone organization for a collective impact initiative. It provides leadership and direction to the MAPP Coordinator. Check out the MAPP Sustainability Plan for more details on internal operations.
