This edition in the Monroe County health almanac series, which was launched with publication of the first Monroe County Community Health Almanac in 2013, is packed with statistics and tables from a wide range of reliable sources at the local, county, state and federal levels. In addition to statistical updates found in the Florida Department of Health's Community Health Assessment Resource Tool Set (CHARTS), we've tapped into the U.S. Census/American Community Survey for core data on health and socioeconomic figures on the Florida Keys as current as 2015. We've also developed special pages and sections spotlighting Monroe County-specific issues, programs, campaigns and achievements impacting public health. We hope these pages will not only educate our readership on the various factors impacting public health across the Florida Keys, but also inspire discussion and additional partnerships in the best interest of making Monroe County and its residents as healthy as possible. One of these special sections profiles tobacco prevention and cessation efforts countywide in the 10 years since funding was restored to the program through a statewide referendum in 2006.
