Community Health Needs Assessments (CHNAs) are part strategic plan/part grounding rod, and provide a systematic process for determining health needs in a particular community or population and using results to spur community change. More and more organizations, funders, community collaboratives, and even local government agencies are looking for efficient, effective ways to do CHNA. At IP3, we believe that CHNA should catalyze community change, not just check a box. This post shares how IP3 ASSESS supports a holistic approach that includes robust community and stakeholder engagement, alignment across stakeholder groups, and moving collaboratively from community insight (exploring the data) to concerted community action. https://lnkd.in/gFTRyfm8
