Public Health Department

Jefferson County Health Department is dedicated to the promotion of individual, community and environmental health through prevention programs and activities.

Our mission is to promote good health practices, keep the environment clean, healthy, and safe, and to help people enjoy good health and use resources effectively. Jefferson County Health Department and community partners completed a Community Health Assessment (CHA) in August 2019. This county-wide health assessment looked at our community health challenges, disparities, and assets.

The CHA was followed with the Jefferson County Community Health Improvement Plan, a collaborative, systematic, multi-year effort to improve the health and well-being of Jefferson County residents. This CHIP is the next step in the process of guiding the collaborative priorities and work of the JCHD and community partners in their efforts to protect and promote health among county residents, based upon the vision statement: “An empowered, unified, and healthy Jefferson County.”
