Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) 2022-2026
Every five years, Waukesha County Public Health creates a Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) to improve health in the community. The CHIP process involves community members who gather and analyze health data. This data helps in making decisions, prioritizing health issues, and developing action plans to improve community health.
A CHIP Steering Committee, including representatives from healthcare, government, nonprofits, businesses, education, faith-based organizations, and community members, leads the process.
CHIP Vision
Vision for a healthy Waukesha County is: An inclusive and well-connected community supporting all people, embracing diversity, ensuring equitable access to services, and creating social, physical, and economic environments that promote health, well-being and quality of life. The strategic health priorities for the 2022 - 2026 Cycle are: MENTAL HEALTH, SUBSTANCE USE & HEALTHY AGING.
