The 2018 Community Health Assessment priority areas are:

• Health Priority 1 – Mental Health

The following CHIP Scorecard was created and submitted September 9th, 2019 in order to meet the requirements for the Buncombe County Long and/ or Short Term Community Health Improvement Plans.

Clear Impact Scorecard™ is a strategy and performance management software that is accessible through a web browser and designed to support collaboration both inside and outside organizations. WNC Healthy Impact is using Clear Impact Scorecard™ to support the development of electronic CHIPs, SOTCH Reports and Hospital Implementation Strategy scorecards in communities across the region.
Scorecard helps communities organize their community health improvement efforts:
•    Develop and communicate shared vision
