This study was conducted to identify health issues of primary concern and to provide critical information to those in a position to make an impact on the health of our region-governments, social service agencies, businesses, healthcare providers, and consumers-to name just a few.
The results enable us to more strategically establish priorities, develop interventions, and commit resources to improve the health of our communities and the region.
Health is-and must be-an issue of concern and action for all of us. We hope the information in this study will encourage collaboration involving all agencies, across county lines, between usual competitors, and among funders to address the complex health needs of our residents.
