Stay Healthy Brown County – Public Health Resources & Updates

A Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) is a long-term effort to address public health problems in a community and is typically updated every three to five years. A CHIP is done following a Community Health Assessment (CHA). The purpose of the CHA is to gather data that tells the story of health in a community. Then, the CHIP creates a plan to address the public health problems identified in the CHA.

The Brown County CHIP is a collaborative effort led by the Beyond Health Steering Committee:

Brown County Public Health
De Pere Health Department
Oneida Community Health Services Department
WI Department of Health Services - Division of Public Health
N.E.W. Community Clinic
Aurora BayCare Medical Center
Hospital Sisters Health System
Emplify Health by Bellin
Prevea Health
Brown County United Way

Together with other local organizations, efforts and resources are focused on the areas identified in the CHIP.
