Our mission: To improve the health and well-being of everyone in Calaveras County.
Calaveras County Public Health is pleased to announce the release of the 2023 Calaveras Community Health Assessment, a comprehensive examination of the health needs and priorities within our community.
The assessment, which started in August 2022, included three phases: key informant interviews, focus group discussions, and a community-wide survey. This thorough investigation explored various aspects of community health, focusing particularly on critical areas such as access and affordability, mental health, health and wellbeing, health behaviors, and substance use. By engaging with key stakeholders, community members, and experts, the assessment aimed to gather diverse perspectives and insights to inform strategic health initiatives and resource allocation.
The full report of the 2023 Calaveras Community Health Assessment is available for review on the Calaveras County Public Health website. An summary of the Community Health Assessment findings can be found here.
