Monthly Workgroup Meetings

Our Local Health Improvement Planning (LHIP) Workgroups meet monthly to work to improve community health in Frederick County.

What to expect:

The 2025-2028 LHIP Workgroups were formed in 2025 and will close in June 2028 when we re-evaluate the community’s health needs through the Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA). Check out each Workgroup’s meeting minutes on their pages to find out more about their projects and goals.

As a passionate community member, you are encouraged to join our new 2025 - 2028 LHIP Workgroups:

Workgroups are Open to Everyone!

We invite all interested members of the public and community partners to participate in these Workgroups.

Share your passion for community health and health equity, and work alongside other community members who share your commitment.

Workgroups operate on three-year cycles. If you want to join mid-cycle, we will share logic models, action plans, and planned initiatives so that everyone can participate in ongoing meetings and events.
