After completing its first Community Health Assessment following the COVID-19 pandemic, Washtenaw County has identified three main health priorities for the community: mental health, access to healthcare, and access to healthy food. Dayna Brimley, a Community Health Analyst at the Washtenaw County Health Department, stated that these priorities will guide the county and its health partners in developing actionable steps to address them.
Moving forward, the department plans to collaborate with community members to identify specific action items and goals by working with county groups and stakeholders until the end of 2027. Brimley emphasized the importance of involving the community in this process and stated that they do not want to make decisions in isolation. By working closely with community input, they hope to create solutions that are truly reflective of the needs of Washtenaw County.
