Black Hawk County Public Health is proud to announce the launch of its new Data Hub, an innovative resource designed to provide the community with valuable information about the state of public health in Black Hawk County. The Data Hub is now live on the Black Hawk County Public Health website.
The Data Hub's initial launch showcases the results of the 2022 Community Health Assessment, offering an in-depth analysis of the county's health-related trends and key indicators. The goal of the Data Hub is to include additional data sets and resources that will further enhance the community's understanding of inequities and provide data to support local government, healthcare providers, non-profit organizations, and residents to make informed decisions.
Black Hawk County Public Health is committed to promoting and protecting the health and well-being of its residents. The launch of the Data Hub is a significant step forward in achieving this goal and providing the community with the information and resources needed to make informed decisions about public health matters.
Black Hawk County Public Health continues to work collaboratively with community organizations to develop and enhance this valuable tool for the benefit of all residents. Community partners who would like to contribute data to the Data Hub can email publichealth@blackhawkcounty.iowa.gov.
To access the Data Hub, please visit the Black Hawk County Public Health website at https://www.bhcpublichealth.org/data-hub.
