On Feb. 13, the Florida Department of Health in Monroe County recognized three chairpersons for Monroe County’s Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) and associated county health partners.
These three individuals were recognized for their dedication the last five years and for their tireless work toward the betterment of health among Monroe County residents. The county’s health priorities, as identified by key stakeholders and residents in the 2019-2024 CHIP, include access to care, mental health, substance abuse and health in all policies.
The department is working on renewing the CHIP and invites all residents to complete the well-being survey available by scanning the QR code. The survey takes 5 minutes to complete and is available in English, Spanish and Haitian Creole. The results of the survey will help identify the next three health priorities for succeeding years of the Monroe County CHIP.
