Community Health Assessment Underway in Delaware County

May 27, 2023

Delaware County is working on its very first Community Health Assessment!

The Delaware County Health Department (DCHD) has begun its first community health assessment, in partnership with community-based organizations and government agencies! The goal of a community health assessment is to identify key health assets, needs, and disparities in Delaware County through comprehensive data collection, research, and analysis. DCHD wants to gain a complete understanding of the public health issues affecting our county and provide accurate data that can be used to develop strategies to improve the health of community members.

Residents can help by taking the survey. It should take about 10 minutes to complete, and will tell us what health and social problems affect you and your family.

The survey is for adults, and is available in several languages.
