IDPH State Health Improvement Plan - 2028 | .... second piece of our Healthy Illinois 2028 initiative: the Illinois State Health Improvement Plan. [11.2023 IDPH] The State Health Improvement Plan looks different than in previous versions. As the State of Illinois moves forward after the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency, we know that this is a crucial moment in Illinois’s public health story – a time in our history to write new chapters and think differently about how we view and can improve our health today and in the years ahead. For me, [Dr. S. Vohra, MD] public health has always been about community. Yes, it is about keeping us safe from infectious diseases and preventing future emergencies. Those issues will always be core state priorities. However, at its heart, public health is so much more. Public health is about us coming together to unify around the health of ourselves and our loved ones. It is about the incredible residents in our big, diverse, and unique state. When we do public health right, our residents can be well and live well – enjoying the people and activities that make Illinois so special. Our State Health Improvement Plan concentrates on five areas that Illinois will make a priority in moving our health forward from 2023-2028. This initial release of the State Health Improvement Plan brings to our Illinois residents a framework for action.
