Thank you to everyone who joined us at the College of Menominee Nation for the 2026 Community Health Assessment meeting on August 17th. Together with community members, partners, and local organizations, we reviewed key data for Shawano and Menominee Counties across Social Determinants of Health, Health Behaviors and Outcomes, Clinical Care, and the Physical Environment.

After thoughtful discussion, the community helped identify our health priority areas for the next 3–5 years:
🧠Mental Health
🚌Transportation &
🏠Housing
These priorities reflect the voices of our residents and the needs highlighted in our assessment.

We’re grateful for the collaboration, engagement, and commitment shown today. This work moves forward because our community shows up, and we look forward to continuing this journey together. Stay tuned for next steps and ways to get involved as we move this work forward.
