Fulton County strives to bring together people and organizations to improve community wellness. The community health needs assessment and implementation strategy process is one way we can live out our mission. In order to fulfill this mission, we must be intentional about understanding the health issues that impact residents and work together to create a healthy community.
The 2023 Fulton County Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) is the fourth of these reports released, all following a CHNA. We want to provide the best possible care for our residents, and we can use this report to guide us in our strategic planning and decision making concerning future programs, clinics, and health resources.
The Fulton County CHIP would not have been possible without the help of numerous organizations. It is vital that assessments such as this continue so that we can know where to direct our resources and use them in the most advantageous ways.
The 2022 Fulton County Data Appendix is the result of ongoing collaborative efforts that span more than 20 years and comprise a number of community leaders and organizations known collectively as the Fulton County Partners for Health. The data in this report will serve as a data appendix to the 2019 Fulton County Community Health Needs Assessment (CHA) and helps us to describe and understand the prevalence of acute and chronic health conditions, access to care barriers and health disparities. Use of this data to direct community resources to address the biggest collective impact is the next step. Partners for Health will use this report to inform the development and implementation of the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP), a strategic plan to focus improvement efforts on identified health priorities.

The 2020-2023 Community Health Improvement Plan was drafted by agencies and service providers within Fulton County. During January 2020 -September, 2020, the committee reviewed many sources of information concerning the health and social challenges Fulton County adults, youth and children may be facing. They determined priority topics which if addressed, could improve future outcomes, determined gaps in current programming and policies and examined best practices and solutions. The committee has recommended specific action steps they hope many agencies and organizations will embrace to address the priority issues in the coming months and years.
