The North Country Health Improvement Survey aimed to capture community health priorities by asking residents to rank the three top health issues affecting their area. Over 1,300 surveys were sent to local stakeholders such as healthcare providers, educators, and officials. A total of 411 responses were collected, with 386 being complete. The responses were categorized into three sub-regions: Western Coos, Berlin-Gorham Area, and Northern Grafton. The findings will guide local health initiatives and are intended to reflect community beliefs. Don't miss the drawing for a Family Season Pass to New Hampshire State Parks!
