Community Services Improvement: Good health is not just a reflection on affordable, quality healthcare. Health is
impacted by a variety of factors, deemed social determinants of health, that range from quality education to safe and
healthy environments [5]. Quality, accessibility, and availability of health care services are directly linked to health
outcomes. People who have an ongoing source of care, have the ability to be seen in a timely manner and receive
effective and efficient health care, and are therefore at lower risk for adverse health outcomes. [6] We asked respondents
to identify the (top three) most important community health services, that they felt, needed to be strengthened in order to
improve health and healthcare for both children and adults in the community. Professionals and community members
identified access to mental health providers in schools (Pre-K - 12) as the top service in need of strengthening.
Professionals viewed healthy food access and safe and affordable housing as areas in need of improvement, while
community members found the environment and safe communities (not to include safe housing) to be more in need of
improvement. See Exhibit 14 for the list of community services included in the 2022 CHA.
