Selecting Our Community Priorities

During the Community Health Improvement Planning event on September 25, 2014, participants identified strategic issues that are affecting the health of our county.

We need your help to reduce the number of priorities in order to maximize our impact and use our resources as efficiently as possible. Please use the following criteria to rank the 4 strategic issues.

Size: How many Henry County residents are affected?

Seriousness: To what degree does the problem lead to death, disability, and/or impairs residents' quality of life?

Trends: Is the problem getting better or worse in our community over time?

Equity: Are specific groups of residents more affected by the issue due to their race, gender, age, or similar factors?

Intervention/Availability of Solutions: Do effective strategies exist to address the problem?

Social Determinant/Root Cause: Are any of the problems related to the conditions in which people are born, grow up, live, work, and age?
