CHEI impact

Learn how partners across Massachusetts are using Community Health Equity Initiative (CHEI) data to advance health equity.
Community Health Equity Survey data is wonderful for preliminary research on your community, to create reports for grant applications, design community-level surveys and health assessments, and for public health advocacy on the local and regional level. Pooja Shelke, Epidemiologist, MetroWest Shared Public Health Services. Learn more at mass.gov/chei.
One of the most powerful aspects of using Community Health Equity Initiative data is how it allows us to level the playing field and foster conversations that focus on systems rather than negative narratives about the communities themselves. Margie Rosario, Executive Director, Voices of the Community. Learn more at mass.gov/chei
It's wonderful that we have datasets like the Community Health Equity Survey. Know that there is great data working happening in Massachusetts...avail yourselves of the data that is out there. Philip Gonzalez, CEO, MetroWest Health Foundation. Learn more at mass.gov/chei
