The 2023 Community Health Needs Assessment is complete! Now is the time to come together, narrow down our top priorities, and co-create our path to a healthier community.

The top six priority areas that will be discussed are Mental Health, Housing, Substance Misuse, Childcare, Physical Health, and Food Insecurity.

Help us define what is already happening in the above areas, what barriers exist, and where our power as a community is in working together to create solutions!

For those unable to attend from 9am-12pm, there will be an after-hours input session hosted that same evening from 5-7pm. Organizers will be onsite to answer questions, community members can review the discussion from earlier in the day, share their input, and participate in the prioritization exercise.
