CHIP - 2020 - 2022

A Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) is a “systematic effort to address issues identified by [an] assessment and community health improvement process.”¹   The Logan County CHIP process began by conducting a community needs assessment (CHA). The CHA was conducted in 2020 and involved an extensive data collection process. Primary data was collected via a community survey, key informant interviews, and focus groups of Logan County residents. In addition, a number of secondary data sources were also used to develop a profile of the health needs in the county. The Community Health Assessment (CHA) created a picture of the needs of Logan County, identified community and data strengths and challenges, and provided information for the next steps to improve the quality of life and health in Logan County. The following topics were what was chosen to be of focus for Logan County for the years 2020 - 2022.
