Community Health Survey
The Community Health Survey helps the Health Department gain insight into factors that may impact the community's current health and how they may be improved. The data collected will help us set goals and assist in implementing the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP).
We are asking Lake County residents to participate in the anonymous Community Health Survey. The data not only helps us know how we can improve Lake County, but it gives you a chance to express what matters to you. Identifying topics that are important to you will help to shape future planning in Lake County. Your voice matters.
