Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnership (MAPP)

Local Public Health System Assessment (LPHSA)

This assessment employs a consensus-building process to identify the strengths and gaps within the broad public health system by reviewing the Essential Public Health Services (EPHS).  This leads us to answer:

· What is the capacity of our system?

· How are needed services provided in the community?

The Local Public Health System Assessment subcommittee identifies entities that provide public health services and assists in engaging these entities in discussions about the assets and gaps in services.

Our Vision

Leon County communities will distinguish themselves as collaborative, civically-engaged and accountable. These will be communities where residents and leaders support health based policies that ensure the healthy choice is the easy choice; where residents can live, work, and play in a safe and healthy environment; and where every resident has

access to affordable and equitable health care resources.

What is MAPP? 

Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnership (MAPP) is a community-driven strategic planning process for improving community health.  Facilitated by public health leaders, this process helps communities apply strategic planning to prioritize public health   issues and identify resources to address them.  MAPP is not an agency-focused process; rather it is an interactive process that can improve efficiency, effectiveness, and ultimately the performance of the local public health system.
