The Healthy Futures Project is a collaboration of partners in the region. Only by taking a truly regional perspective will the health issues of the future be effectively understood and addressed.

The different counties within the region face a variety of health and human service needs, and varying levels of resources to address those needs. While there are certainly many differences between the nine counties under study, there are likewise numerous commonalities that exist. The understanding of these similarities can contribute to a closer collaboration with regard to the distribution of services that address health needs.

This project follows on the heels of successful regional planning processes for land use, transportation, and economic development. Initiating Healthy Futures at this time elevates planning and priority setting for health and social issues to the same level of importance in the eyes of public and private sector stakeholders as other regional issues now enjoy. Indeed, due to the timeliness of this project, there are opportunities to link Healthy Futures goals, benchmarks, and action plans to the other regional initiatives addressing land use, transportation, and economic development.
