The Iroquois County Public Health Department, in collaboration with local community leaders and partners, is putting together a comprehensive health plan for Iroquois County. The Illinois Project for Local Assessment of Needs (IPLAN) seeks to address local challenges relating to physical, mental, and environmental health across a five-year span. In order to accurately assess the county’s health status, ICPHD has created a survey that is available to all Iroquois County residents. The survey will prompt participants to answer questions relating to their general demographic information, personal health, and concerns about their community. All survey responses are completely anonymous. Over the next month, copies of the 2024 IPLAN survey will be available at a multitude of Iroquois County establishments. The digital version can be accessed using the QR Code that’s featured at the bottom of this press release and on ICPHD’s webpage. ICPHD strongly encourages every Iroquois County resident to participate. A large sample size is important in understanding the health disparities that exist within our county.
