Douglas County contracted with Omni, a research and consulting company to create a Public Health Improvement Plan (PHIP) specific to Douglas County and its public health needs. Colorado’s Public Health Act of 2008 requires the development of local PHIPs based on a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) and input from community members. The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) provides a process to guide the development of the PHIP. This process is outlined in the Colorado Health Assessment and Planning System (CHAPS) and aligns with the Public Health Accreditation Board (PHAB) requirements for accreditation as a local health department.
