If you have not done so already, the Door County Public Health Department wants to hear your thoughts on how the health and well-being of your neighbors can be improved. The department launched the Community Health Assessment earlier this year as a part of their quinquennial rite to learn more about the residents they serve. The survey helps the department identify the most pressing health issues in the area, influence future investments in programs and services, and ensure everyone has a voice in the process. Public Health Strategist Shauna Blackledge says five years ago, when they last surveyed residents for the Community Health Assessment, mental health was a growing concern in the area and became something the department leaned into addressing.

You can click this link to take the assessment or pick up printed versions to fill out at Door County Public Health, the Aging & Disability Center (ADRC), its satellite meal sites, and some partner organizations. The assessment is due on August 31st.
