What does a healthy community mean to you? (Facilitated by Jackie Martin with assistance from Aaron Pannone)

·  Purpose -> Visioning will ensure the group is on the same page and we know where we’re going and what we want (i.e. our ultimate goal)

·  Completed several visioning exercises in the community and plan to do more (Rockfish Community Market and Downtown Mall, for example)

·  What does a healthy community mean to you?

-  Louisa County High School Students: Word Cloud found they focused on “community” “healthy” “everyone” “people” “clean” “safe” “recourses” “mental health” “access to food”

-  Also asked Murray, Western, Monticello and Renaissance students

-  Core Planning Group plans to go to Rockfish Community Market and Downtown Mall to get further responses; will reach out to contacts in Greene and Fluvanna as well

-  Once visioning sessions are conducted, Core Planning team will draft a few vision statements and poll the public for our Vision

-  11.30.15 Leadership Council Word Cloud: “community” “accessible” “resources” “support” “housing” “inclusive” “diverse” “environment” “everyone” “wellness” “people” “care” “participate” “equal” “safe” “needs” “services” “necessary”

Who is in the Local Public Health System? (Facilitated by Denise Bonds with assistance from Tara Blackley and Helen Dawson)

-  Exercise revealed the connectivity of the organizations involved

-  “Right people in the room”; Large number of non-profits in area, though struggles continue in regards to connectivity of organizations; unspoken mission is to allow non-profits to interact to create relationships; create transparency of resources available through collaboration
