Your voice matters. Join the conversation on health issues in our community. The City of Nashua Division of Public Health and Community Services (DPHCS) is preparing for the 2023 Community Health Assessment (CHA). Community members are invited to join the planning process. Make your voice count!
Interested? Email Lyndsey Bond, Nashua DPHCS Epidemiologist (bondl@nashuanh.gov).
A Community Health Assessment (CHA) is a process through which you gain a better understanding of the health concerns and needs of the community by identifying, collecting, analyzing, and disseminating information on the community’s assets, strengths, resources, and needs. It includes information on risk factors, quality of life, morbidity, and mortality, social determinants of health, and health equity. It also includes information on how well the public health and healthcare systems provide services.
The overarching goal for the CHA is to engage community members, identify emerging issues, and set the foundation for future programming in the the Greater Nashua Public Health Region (GNPHR). The City of Nashua Division of Public Health and Community Services' (DPHCS) CHAs include data on the City of Nashua, GNPHR , and State of New Hampshire.

The 2020 Greater Nashua CHA is the fourth comprehensive CHA conducted by the Nashua DPHCS and their Public Health Advisory Council partners. It is a product of the dedication and collaboration of over 33 organizations, programs, and City departments serving the GNPHR. Like the previous CHAs, this data from the assessment will be used to prioritize health issues, develop goals and strategies to improve health outcomes, and implement evidence-informed initiatives to make our community a healthier place to live, work, and thrive. The 2020 CHA is completely online as a live, interactive document. Click below to access full reports!
