The Division of Public Health provides Guilford County health statistics and special reports to staff, county and city agencies, non-profit organizations, the media and county residents. As new data become available, the data are compiled into data briefs and special reports.

Guilford County Community Health Assessment

The Community Health Assessment or CHA is the foundation for improving and promoting community health. Every four years, the Guilford County Division of Public Health engages community partners and members to identify community needs, resources, and strengths. In this process, we review existing health and community data. We also survey community members and have community conversations to better understand the story of our community’s health. The CHA provides a way to identify pressing health concerns and inform the development of Community Health Improvement Plans (or CHIPS) to address priority health issues. The final phase of the CHA is the development of Community Health Improvement Plans (CHIP).

For more information about our 2023 CHA which is now underway, go to: 2023 Community Health Assessment

For more information about the 2019 CHA, go to the 2019 Community Health Assessment Report.

To learn about the CHIPS that came out of the 2019 CHA, go to the Guilford County Division of Public Health's Healthy NC 2030 Scorecard for Guilford County.

This Scorecard or CHIP is an easy way to learn about just some of the efforts currently underway in Guilford County to address two health priorities identified in the 2019 Guilford County Community Health Assessment (CHA), Maternal and Child Health and Behavioral Health and Opioid Misuse.

State of Guilford County’s Health Report (SOTCH)

During the years when the Community Health Assessment is not underway, Public Health produces the State of the County’s Health Report (SOTCH). The SOTCH highlights progress on Guilford County Division of Public Health’s Community Health Improvement Plans (CHIPs), changes in mortality and morbidity, emerging issues, and updates on community initiatives.
