Muskingum County: Community Health Improvement Plan

The purpose of the Muskingum County Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) is to improve the quality of life and health outcomes of all Muskingum County residents. This process involves the development and maintenance of partnerships to implement the CHIP’s strategies; to promote healthy lifestyle choices, to reduce the risk of death and disability, and to ensure health outcome equity across class, race and socioeconomic status.

The HMCN consists over 40 agencies and organizations from Muskingum County coming together to make a difference.
