The MoCHA is the product of Bob's vision to improve and support the health of Monroe County residents. This assessment is a process-it involves the community in identifying community health needs and the development of public health priorities throughout the townships of Monroe County. The assessment will be collecting data from many data bases to create a community data health book. This health data will be brought to the community through a series of Township Town Meetings in order for residents to identify health problems and evaluate the community's health issues and priorities. Lack of current health data that represents the jurisdiction of Monroe county, in terms of statistical data and identification of critical health issues and needs by county residents, inhibits proper evaluation of services and programs that are appropriate for the needs of the community. Community health assessments capture the health of the community by presenting information on the health status, community health needs, resources, and health services infrastructure. Often these assessments are led by local health departments based on directives from state-level health agencies. The purpose of this project is to conduct an integrated and comprehensive health assessment using community-based participatory research methods (CBPR) to create a geographic information systems atlas and community epidemiology data base that includes a socio-demographic asset profile of the county by townships (n=11 ). This community-led research seeks to identify target populations that may be at increased risk of poor health outcomes and provide more meaningful health policies and programs that can drive policy making at the county and state scale. This assessment also works with community members to understand the larger community environment and how it relates to the health of individuals. MoCHA aims to collect data on: · Public Health Emergency Preparedness ·Chronic diseases: asthma, obesity, diabetes · Infectious diseases: tuberculosis, sexually transmitted infections · Behavioral Health issues ·Causes ofmortality 1 7 Results will be used to: · Help community members analyze and prioritize health issues on a local level ·Influence local, county-wide and state health initiatives ·Serve as a successful template for health assessments in other communities Using CBPR methods, this assessment is comprised of core indicators as determined by the community in terms of leading cause of morbidity and mortality. This in turn will be collected and compared to health surveillance data and epidemiologic data from local department, hospitals, clinics, and health centers. Secondary data will then be integrated into local core indicator data. This data will be vetted by the community through a series of Town Hall Meetings in each of the 11 districts (Townships) of Monroe County, Indiana and supplemented by local data from agencies and organizations that assess the health and well being of their target populations. Health planning and programming priorities will be collected and presented to policymakers and agencies. Community-led assessment illustrates contextual and significant local interpretation and analysis of the local health data that does not always align with state-wide health planning and programming. Results also show that continuous, interactive local process with regular updates of the information to support and reinforce local county health initiatives make health planning more relevant to everyday residents. This process allows for continual
