Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP)
Regional Community Health Improvement Plan – coming in 2024
The Regional CHIP will include health goals and strategies for Linn, Benton, and Lincoln counties.
The work is led by the Partnership for Community Health, which includes Linn, Benton, and Lincoln County health departments, Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians, Intercommunity Health Network Coordinated Care Organization (IHN-CCO), Samaritan Health Services, and United Way of Linn, Benton, and Lincoln Counties.
The Partnership for Community Health used community input and the 2022-2025 Regional Health Assessment (link to RHA in right column) to identify these priority areas:
- Access to Affordable Housing
- Behavioral Health
- Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion
- Access to Quality Care
Want to help with goals and strategies to address these priorities?

2019 -2024 Plan
