2017 Community Health Improvement Plan

The Macomb County Health Department is pleased to present the 2017-2021 Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP). The CHIP is a community-driven, strategic and measurable work plan. It defines how community partners across sectors will come together to address priority health issues identified through a comprehensive assessment of local data. In coordination with local hospitals, community stakeholders, and partner organizations, more than 30 diverse Macomb County community organizations identified four priority areas for the CHIP. The priority areas identified for Macomb County are:

Chronic Disease and Healthy Lifestyle
Behavioral Health
Access to Services
Social Determinants of Equity

To develop our CHIP, community partners worked together to address identified health issues as well as identify conditions needed to support and improve health. Strong, effective partnerships are necessary for our community to create the conditions that will lead to improving the health and well-being of Macomb County residents and the health of our community.

The CHIP is a living document that will be implemented and monitored over a five year period and continuously assessed, evaluated and revised based on the evaluation results and feedback from our community partners and community members.
