Every three years, the Blue Ridge Health District, Sentara Martha Jefferson Hospital, and UVA Health collaborate to conduct a comprehensive community health needs assessment. This assessment serves as a critical tool in identifying factors that either foster or impede wellness within our community, while highlighting the resources needed to address health disparities and overcome obstacles for the City of Charlottesville and Albemarle, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa and Nelson Counties.
We invite journalists, policy makers, and regional health leaders to join us to learn more about the health of our community and hear firsthand from the people leading improvement initiatives. Together we’ll explore the power of storytelling—to inspire engagement, support equitable initiatives, and uphold the dignity and agency of our community members most affected by these efforts. Let’s uncover our collective potential to raise awareness about this vital work and improve health here at home.
