The Appalachian District Health Department is excited to share the Healthy NC 2030 Scorecard for Alleghany County. This Community Health Improvement Scorecard is an easy way to learn about some of the efforts currently underway in Alleghany County to address three health priorities identified in the 2020 Alleghany County Community Health Assessment (CHA):
- Substance Use and Misuse
- Family & Social Support
- Behavioral & Mental Health
While our community has been adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic since March 2020, Alleghany County and our community partners are united in our efforts to support community health improvements to address these priorities. This Scorecard also serves as Alleghany County’s Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIPs), fulfilling the NC Local Health Department Accreditation requirements that local health departments complete three CHIPs following the CHA submission and a State of the County's Health Report for Alleghany County on years when not completing the CHA.
For each priority, this Scorecard spotlights:
- A Result Statement, a picture of where we would like to be,
- Important local Indicators or measures of how we are doing linked to Healthy NC2030 indicators and
- Select Programs or activities and
- Key Performance Measures that show how those programs are making an impact.
