Title V Needs Assessment • At the beginning of every five year grant cycle, a comprehensive statewide needs assessment must be conducted of the MCAH population. • The state decentralizes this process by having each local jurisdiction conduct their own needs assessment. • The goals of the local needs assessment process include: • Obtaining stakeholder /community partner input • Building local jurisdiction needs assessment capacity • Identifying public health issues that would be missed by only using state level information • Developing an action plan to address identified issues

  10. There are many data limitations in a small county with few residents. • The difference of one case can make local rates seem very high or very low. • Confidence intervals, which tell us if differences in rates are significant, are wide. Therefore, Mono County’s rates are often statistically equivalent to the State’s rates, even if they seem much better or worse. • Data can be insufficient for data analysis when there are too few cases. • Data is often grouped by years or by multiple counties so there is enough data to analyze. Grouping counties can lead to an incorrect picture of local health indicators. The Data • Mono County strives to have significantly better rates than the State, and to surpass the Healthy People 2020 objectives. Healthy People provides science-based, 10-year national objectives for improving the health of all Americans.
