Introducing Live ​Healthy Lane

Live Healthy Lane is a community-based effort to improve the health and well-being of those who live, learn, work, and play in Lane County. Creating the conditions for optimal health is the responsibility of everyone in our community. The community work includes the periodic assessment of health issues and needs in Lane County (the Community Health Assessment; CHA) and the development and implementation of the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHP).

Together we can do more than each of us can do alone.

Improve the Health of People in Lane County

Elevate ​Rural Voices!
​Join our Rural Outreach Project​
​Apply to Join Live Healthy Lane's Steering Committee
The Rural Outreach Project is actively recruiting community facilitators to help elevate rural voices!

Facilitators will conduct StoryCorps interviews with community members most impacted by health disparities related to geography, race and income.

These interviews will be used to better support and collaborate with rural communities, inform health investment decisions, and ultimately reduce health disparities in our rural communities. 

Ideal community facilitators are well-connected and trusted community members in our pilot communities. No interviewing experience needed.

Introducing Lane County's 2021-25 CHP and CHA

Lane County's Community Health Improvement Plan (CHP) is a menu of action items that, taken together as a community, have the potential to achieve Live Healthy Lane's vision of: Working together to create a caring community where all people can live a healthier life.

2021-25 CHP Priorities:
  1. Ensure incomes are sufficient to meet basic costs of living (i.e., housing, childcare, food transportation, etc.)
  2. Establish community conditions that support behavioral health and physical well-being
  3. Address current historical injustices that produce disparities​​​

​The 2021-25 CHP is informed by the 2018-19 Community Health Assessment (CHA), which identified health issues and needs in Lane County.
Live Healthy Lane Partners are currently working to develop a CHP Action Plan.

Sign up for Live Healthy Lane's email list to stay up to date on the latest 2021-25 CHP developments.
The CHA/CHP is implemented in collaboration with Lane Community Health Council, Lane County, PeaceHealth Oregon Network, Trillium Community Health Plan, United Way of Lane County, and the community to help improve health for all who live, learn, work, and play in Lane County.
