This plan describes strategies, stakeholders, goals, and measures of progress for specific health concerns and disparities, and also highlights opportunities for members of our local public health system to align priorities and actions in a highly focused and organized manner.

The 2014-2018 CHIP for Monterey County includes information about our local health network and resources to further address priority issues. With awareness of the data, increased communication, and concerted efforts we can reach the target outcomes we seek. The CHIP will be reviewed and reported by the health network annually and revised every five years to monitor our progress and establish new priorities as needed.

There are many ways to get involved, large and small, and the invitation to join this effort is open. Individual organizations and collective efforts are described by name and internet addresses in the body and appendix of this report. Monterey County Health Department maintains and regularly updates a database of contact information for more than 300 organizations.

To learn more about how to connect, be added to our partner organization database, or if you are a partner who is not mentioned in this Community Health Improvement Plan, please contact us: Monterey County Health Department, Planning, Evaluation, and Policy Unit, at 831/755-4583
