Edwards, MS Executive Director LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL To: Interested Individuals and Agencies The Salt Lake County Health Department (SLCoHD) is pleased to announce the release of the 2013 Salt Lake County Community Health Assessment. Many dedicated individuals spent numerous hours collecting data, providing input, analyzing results, and compiling information in hopes it will be useful to all those interested in the health of Salt Lake County. We are especially grateful to the many individuals and agencies that provided their time sharing experiences and knowledge to help prepare a more accurate assessment. The purpose of this assessment is to better define the health challenges we all face in Salt Lake County. Where possible, data has been analyzed by small area (ZIP code). This has helped us see that while overall Salt Lake County is a fairly healthy county in a very healthy state, there are defined pockets of need within various health indicators. This will help all of us focus our efforts as we strive to achieve the greatest impact with limited resources. We see this as a working document that will be updated periodically, with the assessment process repeated every five years. SLCoHD will use this document to help shape a community health improvement plan, as well as our department strategic plan. We hope you find it valuable in helping Salt Lake County residents achieve their highest level of health status. We appreciate any comments you might have and look forward to working collectively as we all strive to make Salt Lake County the healthiest county. Sincerely, Gary L. Edwards, MS Executive Director 2001 South State Street, S-2500 PO Box 144575 Salt Lake City, UT 84114-4575 phone 385-468-4117 fax 385-468-4106 slcohealth.org PAGE LEFT BLANK INTENTIONALLY SLCoHD - CHA Page 4 “There’s a movement afoot.

When one stops dreaming one might as well die, for Imagine a world where everyone is free to responsibly seek truth there is nothing for which living is more worthy than one’s imagination.” and meaning; where they are encouraged to explore new ideas, seek – author Odie Henderson understanding and celebrate the worth and dignity of every person. Salt Lake County residents discover that world when they walk through the doors of their local county library. IMAGINE The possibility that excites my imagination is the potential to influence the lives of hundreds of thousands of people throughout the Salt Lake valley. Over 4.5 million people walk through our doors annually, and millions more throughout the world come into contact with us by using our web services. The opportunity to inspire so many imaginations, satisfy curiosities and awaken minds to new possibilities is enormous. As people share their discoveries, the influence of the library ripples out to impact whole communities. Along with the great opportunity to touch so many lives, comes responsibility to explore the question, “What makes a public library great?” especially in a rapidly changing world of new technologies, shifting economies and information overload.
