Maricopa County
How to Get Involved
The Health Improvement Partnership of Maricopa County (HIPMC) is a collaborative effort between Maricopa County Department of Public Health and a diverse array of
public and private organizations addressing priority health issues through the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP).
As the fourth largest county in the United States with more than 3.8 million residents, we have a lot of ground to cover in impacting the health of our community! There are many strategic initiatives and programs already underway addressing similar health priorities. We would like to hear about these types of projects so that we can better reflect work being done more broadly and help identify opportunities for collaboration.
Whether your organization is large or small, health-related or not, the HIPMC brings together all those passionate about promoting health and wellness within their respective communities. The CHIP process provides a forum to share ideas and resources as well as to identify gaps and barriers to existing services. In addition to working alongside our community partners, MCDPH will provide:
- Data Support & Resources
- Access to Evidence-Based Policies & Programs
- Determining Goals & Objectives
- Strategic Coordination & Action Planning
- Networking Opportunities
- Evaluation (including survey reviews)
- Marketing & Communication
- Website administration of maricopahealthmatters.org
