Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP)

The Community Health Improvement Plan, or CHIP, is a community-based plan created by the Citrus Health Improvement Partnership. First convened in 2015, the Partnership is a group of community leaders who create and implement the CHIP. Working together, these representatives from both government and non-profit organization toward creating a healthier community.

A new CHIP plan was published in 2025. Based on the most recent Community Health Needs Assessment, conducted in 2023, a new CHIP plan was published in 2025.

Anyone is welcome to join the partnership. Please contact our CHIP coordinator, Amy Douglas, at 352-513-6057 for meeting details or other requests.
