Community Health Assessment & Improvement

Connecting Communities

Every 3-5 years, we take a step back and ask our community what the most important health issues and needs are for Walworth County. We don't do this alone and involve many other groups, organizations, and agencies and look at a wide range of data.

We listen, learn, and identify priorities for partners across Walworth County to connect on in order to improve our community's health.
