An online forum for MAPP communities
CHA and CHIP Examples
By implementing MAPP, your community will develop a community health assessment (CHA) and a community health improvement plan (CHIP).
A CHA is a process that uses quantitative and qualitative methods to systematically collect and analyze data to understand health within a specific community and is conducted in partnership with the community. The ultimate goal of a CHA is to develop strategies to address the community’s health needs and identified issues.
A CHIP is a long-term, systematic effort to address public health problems on the basis of the results of CHA activities and the community health improvement process. This plan is used by health and other governmental education and human service agencies, in collaboration with community partners, to set priorities and coordinate and target resources.
