Community Health Assessment 2024
We are partnering with the Montgomery County Department of Health and Human Services Office of Public Health to conduct its first Community Health Assessment (CHA). The Montgomery County Office of Public Health and community partners want to learn about your experiences, the health issues you care about, and your ideas to make our community healthier.
Please share what matters most to you by filling out the confidential Montgomery County Community Health Assessment survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/CHA2024.
This information will help create more opportunities for Montgomery County residents to achieve their best health. Results of this survey will be available to the whole community later this summer. You can get more information about the Community Health Assessment and sign up to be notified when the report is available by clicking here: www.montgomerycountypa.gov/CHA
