ACTION TEAMS

The Community Health Trust is a partnership of more than 200 communities leaders from business, industry, religion, government, healthcare and human services. Their collective goal is to improve the health status and overall quality of life of residents in Morris and Sussex counties.

To meet that objective, the Community Health Trust completed an elaborate needs assessment to determine the health of our community. After reviewing the findings 5 action teams were identified: Cancer, Tobacco, Heart Disease and Stroke, Substance Abuse, Teen & Youth, and Community Partnership Action Model.
