Community Health Planning and Statistics

Florida Department of Health in Santa Rosa County

Since 2012, the Florida Department of Health in Santa Rosa County (DOH-Santa Rosa) has been involved in community health improvement planning, utilizing a process called the Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnership (MAPP).

Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnership model. Phase 1 of this model is to build the community health improvement foundation. Phase 2 is to tell the community story. This is broken into three subcategories: the community partner assessment, the community status assessment, and the community context assessment. And phase 3 is to continuously improve the community.

Recently the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO) updated to MAPP 2.0. This model emphasizes community engagement, data-driven assessments and improving outcomes for all.

MAPP 2.0 will guide the community health assessment and improvement planning starting in 2024.
