Story County - Community Health Needs Assessment
Every 5 years, county public health agencies across the state conduct a formalized Community Health Needs Assessment and create an associated Health Improvement Plan. The assessments are carried out in a collaborative nature, between Story County Public Health and the Story County Quality of Life Alliance and its members.
The assessment was comprised of several components, including a survey of SCQLA members and other partner service agencies in the community, combined with various external resources including: County Health Rankings from Robert Woods Johnson Foundation, the CDC's Community Health Status Indicators, and county reports from Community Commons.
The data obtained from the report provide a valuable resource for understanding our local needs while also serving as a benchmark to track progress over time. Additionally, SCQLA has placed particular emphasis on standardizing efforts to address identified needs. This is to ensure transparency in efforts and promote community dialogue around these topics. We look forward to working with you!
