Agenda for Change

The Agenda for Change Workgroup will move the Agenda for Change from a fairly broad description of what the governmental public health system should focus on in the future into a more specific set of priorities. These priorities can guide the directions we set as a public health system in the next 2 to 5 years in addition to establishing a small set of specific action items that should be pursued immediately in order to most effectively improve the health of the public.

 

The Agenda for Change Workgroup will build on the discussions, work and final product of the Reshaping Governmental Public Health Workgroup (2010) which included a review of health data, public health system assessment, forces of change and identification of themes. The focus will remain on the governmental public health system in the next 2 to 5 years (2012–2016).

 

Throughout an 18-month process (May 2011–November 2012), the Agenda for Change Workgroup will guide the process, review the output of subgroups and determine what to carry forward and integrate into a statewide action plan. It will also address the development of a long-term strategy for predictable and appropriate levels of financing. Among other inputs, the process will incorporate a review of local health jurisdiction community health assessment findings and community health improvement plans.

 

Specific focus will be placed on:

  • The most effective and important elements of prevention, early detection and swift response for communicable

disease and other health threats (Communicable Disease and Other Health Threats Subgroup)

  • Policy and system efforts to foster healthy communities and environments

(Healthy Communities and Environments Subgroup)

  • Effective and strategic partnering with the healthcare system to improve access to quality

(Public Health Partnering with the Healthcare System)

 

  • Developing long-term strategy for predictable and appropriate levels of financing public health

(Public Health Funding)
