Board given 2025–2028 CHIP and 2026–2030 strategic plan; mental health, substance use and housing prioritized
Summary
The department presented the Community Health Improvement Plan that prioritizes mental health, substance use and housing, and outlined a 2026–2030 strategic plan emphasizing broader community partnerships and communications improvements; both documents were provided to the Board for review.
Department staff presented the 2025–2028 Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP), developed after a community health assessment. Staff said the CHIP targets mental health, substance use and housing as principal focus areas and that emergency readiness was added after community conversations.
Staff also summarized the 2026–2030 Public Health Strategic Plan, which the department described as focusing on building broader community partnerships outside the typical network and improving communications and public-health information strategies. Both documents were provided to the Board for review and will return for future discussion or implementation planning.
No budget or formal policy decisions were recorded at this meeting tied to the CHIP or the strategic plan; the minutes flag these as materials for Board review as the department continues accreditation work.
