The 2018 Benton County Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) embodies deep collaboration between the Benton County Health Department and diverse community partners and organizations working together to improve the health of those who live, learn, work, and play in Benton County. The CHIP outlines four priority health improvement areas for targeted work over the next five years, and serves as a guide for collective community efforts to address and measure progress. Benton County Health Department has developed an online progress dashboard so that our community can follow along with our community health improvement work. You can access dashboard at: bit.ly/BentonCountyCHIPDashboard.
