Role of Local Government in Health Equity
1.
For local government, with which statement do you agree most? (Choose only one (1) statement)
There is no role for local government and/or county boards of health. Policy must be handled at the state level along with necessary budgets.
There is no role for local government, but there is for county boards of health. County boards of health see what is happening and can reach out to other government entities or form necessary partnerships.
There is a role for both local government and county boards of health since they are closest to the problem and are most in control of conditions in their counties. These local government entities can best form the needed partnerships and/or alert others to conditions that need to be addressed.
There is a role for both local government and county boards of health, but they need resources, technical assistance and other forms of support from the State government.
