State Health Assessment Workgroup
The State Health Assessment (SHA) Workgroup was established in 2018 to begin identifying the top health improvement areas throughout the state. Members are responsible for collecting, analyzing, and sharing the results of the SHA to enable better data-driven decision-making. The workgroup typically meets 18-24 months before the next release of the SHA.
In 2023, the Workgroup was split into two teams: Data Survey Team and the Community Engagement Team. The Data Survey Team will oversee the analytic side of the community survey, including designing clear questions, capturing appropriate responses, and identifying persisting health issues. The Community Engagement Team will oversee our “Community Conversations,” which will be the listening sessions held across the state. This team will also indicate areas in Alabama that need more representation in the data reporting.
