Community Health

Goal:

Improve community health through cross-sector collaboration

Strategies:

A ‘population health framework’ suggests that the health of an individual is affected by four health factors: health behaviors, access to, and quality of clinical care, social and economic factors and the physical environment. Recognizing that clinical care represents about only 20% of someone’s health, the Partnership members participate in key community initiatives that have a particular focus on low-income and vulnerable families — and have a significant impact on improving community health.
