Healthy People Kenosha County 2010
- Healthy People Kenosha County 2010 is a local initiative that partners public health with community representatives from government, public, private, and non-profit businesses and organizations for the purpose of developing a public health strategic plan for Kenosha County. The overarching goals of the strategic plan are consistent with the national initiative Healthy People 2010, and the State of Wisconsin initiative Healthiest Wisconsin -- to increase quality and years of life and eliminate health disparities. Healthy People Kenosha County 2010 is comprised of six committees that were developed to address the overarching goals in specific areas of concern: Access to Healthcare, Youth Health, Healthy Lifestyles, Mental Health, Injury Prevention, and Environmental Health. The 2009 Healthy People Kenosha County Annual Report provides an overview of the progress of Healthy People Kenosha County 2010 to date. The Kenosha County Division of Health is grateful for the commitment of the numerous committee members that are involved in this valuable community initiative.
