The Public Health Planning and Improvement website serves as a central hub for MDH’s ongoing efforts to strengthen public health practice across the state. It brings together the department’s core activities in strategic planning, workforce development, performance management, quality improvement, and accreditation. This platform highlights key initiatives such as the State Health Assessment (SHA), State Health Improvement Process (SHIP), and other statewide planning efforts. It also provides tools, resources, and guidance to support staff, partners, and stakeholders in building capacity, aligning efforts, and advancing a more effective, data-driven, and community-centered public health system.
