Building a healthy community
Vision 2020 is a community-wide health initiative designed to actively engage the citizens of Cheshire County in the process of becoming the nation's healthiest community by 2020.
Lead by a coalition of community partners representing multiple sectors - healthcare, education, private business, municipal and state governments, non-profit agencies, and recreational organizations - five Vision 2020 goals, encompassing a broad spectrum and vision of “health" have been identified:
- Health Status
- Health Care Access
- Health Literacy
- Wellness
- Social Capital
Workgroups, formed around each of the goals, have been defining and refining working definitions and identifying programs, policies and services that are currently addressing relevant issues.
Several measurable, valid and recognizable indicators of health have been selected and will be reported out to the community in a consistent and timely manner.
It is anticipated that the workgroups will identify, prioritize, and recommend strategies and interventions that will become the foundation for the Vision 2020 Community Plan.
