Newton County Community Health Survey

Health Check on Newton

Newton County Health Survey
Newton County groups are conducting a needs assessment to determine the specific health needs of Newton's youth and adults. To help us plan for the most needed health care services and provide the best access to these services, we ask that you take a few minutes to answer the following survey questions. The survey is being funded through a grant from Emory University's Urban Health Program. It is being organized by the Newton Partnership, the grant recipient, and its partners including the Newton County School System, Hands On Newton, Oxford at Emory University and others. YOUR ANSWERS WILL BE CONFIDENTIAL. Any questions regarding the part of the county one lives in or other personal data will not be used to identify anyone. It will merely be tabulated and used to create an overall picture of pockets of health concerns and health trends in the community. Thank you for your time and thoughtful responses. Your views will make a difference in our community.
