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:
disease and other health threats (Communicable
Disease and Other Health Threats Subgroup)
(Healthy
Communities and Environments Subgroup)
(Public
Health Partnering with the Healthcare System)
(Public
Health Funding)
