Valley Health recognizes our community’s health concerns are complex and that we cannot solve them alone. We are proud to support and partner with area community agencies, allowing us to leverage our resources for more meaningful impact on persistent health trends and disparities affecting our region.
Request for Partnerships
Valley Health’s mission is Serving our Community by Improving Health, and we are inviting community agencies to become our partners in strengthening community health--with sustainable programs, projects, and activities that address the specific health-related challenges present in our region.
Community Partnership Overview
Every three years, Valley Health conducts a Community Health Needs Assessment [CHNA] to better understand the health of the communities we serve. The 2022 CHNA process included collecting and analyzing data from over 1,800 completed surveys, interviewing nearly two hundred community leaders and conducting six community response sessions across our region. After a thorough analysis of the CHNA results, Valley Health selected the following priority community needs to focus on during the 2023-2025 period, with the goal of significantly impacting community health:
Identified Needs
Strategies to Address Identified Needs
The following strategies have been identified as effective approaches for tackling the selected needs. Valley Health is looking to partner with community agencies to implement these strategies across the region. One or more of these strategies should be addressed as part of any Community Partnership Grant application.
Community Partnership Grants, along with other collaborative efforts, aim to positively impact the health, welfare and quality of life of our communities. Healthy people build strong, stable communities, and by working collaboratively with community partners, Valley Health believes we can achieve meaningful results and improve health outcomes in our region. Community agencies which would like to join Valley Health in its mission are invited to submit a Community Partnership Grants.
