Frequently Asked Questions

  • We identified Wood County's most urgent health priorities by reviewing existing community health data, analyzing results from the 2023 community health survey, 3,200 residents participated in, holding multiple community advisory council meetings with various partners, and facilitating focus groups.

  • We've been organizing around health in Wood County for years, but have recently been reinvigorated by our community health improvement planning process. 

    Even though we've been working on this for a few years, you're right on time to join us for the action phase of the project!
