Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP)

The cover of the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) features images of people in our community on a white background.

The 2022 Community Health Improvement Plan is complete.

The "community health improvement planning" process, or CHIP, is an opportunity to develop a common agenda for the entire community. It will help all of us to focus our energy and resources and support policies, projects, and programs that will be most effective in improving the health of the people we serve.

For more information about the Community Health Improvement Planning process, contact Damian Boudreau, Systems Improvement Manager, Lewis and Clark Public Health, 406-457-8908.


Community Health Report

Community Health Report 2021

The 2021 Community Health Report provides a snapshot of our community on several health conditions, behaviors and social determinants of health in the county, including cancer, heart disease, substance use, mental health, childcare, food security and many others.

This report forms the basis for the Community Health Improvement Plan, which will be released in 2022.

Every three years, the Healthy Together Steering Committee prepares the Lewis and Clark County Community Health Report. This report helps organizations, business, and local health systems identify areas of concern impacting their health and the health of their community.  We need to hear from you! Tell us how you utilized or planning on applying the information from this report in your work or activities you are doing in the community. Your input will help us improve our next Community Health Report.

Public Health Guides

The following brochures produced by the health department are free for public use. Click on the name of the guide to download.

Bats and Rabies

Bats can be helpful creatures. They eat tons of insect pests. But bats can carry rabies, and they can infect people with this deadly disease. Never touch a bat!

Wildfire Smoke

Wildfires produce smoke that contains dangerous pollutants. These can hurt your eyes, irritate your respiratory system, and worsen chronic heart and lung diseases.

Healthy Habits

Healthy habits can protect everyone from getting germs or spreading germs at home, work, or school.

Floods & Your Health

While the focus during flooding is often on protecting property, don't forget to protect the health and safety of you and your family.

Gardening & Lead

Gardening in soil that may be contaminated with lead can create special challenges. Follow these tips to make sure the produce you grow is healthy and safe to eat.

Zika Virus

Travelers and women who are pregnant or plan to become pregnant are most at risk from this disease spread by certain kinds of mosquitoes.

Junk Vehicle Removal Progam

State law requires individuals to control and shield all junk vehicles from public view. Our Environmental Services Division can haul away those old junkers for free.
