Community Health Improvement Plan
In Minnesota, community health improvement planning is a foundational practice of public health as well as a national standard for all public health departments.
The 2020 Aitkin-Itasca-Koochiching Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) is developed collaboratively and defines a vision for the community’s health. The CHIP is the community’s plan, not public health’s plan for the community. The Community Health Improvement Plan will be used by the A-I-K Community Health Board along with community partners to set priorities, coordinate resources, develop policies, and define actions to target efforts that protect and promote health.
