Project Background
The 2008 Community Health Assessment is a product of the
enthusiastic commitment of the Mobilizing for Action through
Planning and Partnership (MAPP) Stakeholder group, and the
coordination efforts of Stanislaus County Health Services
Agency/Public Health. Completion of this project demonstrates
the synergistic effect of collaboration among Stanislaus County
agencies, local hospitals, health plans, and community-based
partners.

Mobilizing for Action through
Planning and Partnership
(MAPP) |
|
This year’s comprehensive assessment takes into account over 70 social,
economic, health and behavioral determinants of health. This assessment is part
of an established cycle of surveying that began with the MAPP stakeholders in
2002. The previous Community Health Assessment, completed in 2004, set the
visionary groundwork to actively work together for improving the health of our
communities.
In keeping with the vision of the partnership, this assessment was conducted
through self-administered surveys and secondary data analysis contributed by the
partners and through data collected by
Applied Survey
Research.

We thank the members of the 2008 Community Health Assessment Steering
Committee for their leadership and support in making this project possible.
