Treasure Valley Community Health Needs Assessment Survey

by on April 17, 2025

Every three years, the Western Idaho Community Health Collaborative (WICHC) launches a Community Health Needs Assessment Survey (CHNA) to better understand the health needs and priorities within its 10-county footprint (Adams, Washington, Payette, Gem, Canyon, Owyhee, Valley, Boise, Ada, and Elmore).

Take the Survey

Please take a few minutes to complete the community survey. The survey takes no more than 10 minutes to complete and is strictly confidential. Your input is valuable and will help us understand how to best support the needs of the Treasure Valley.

Participants will enter to win a $20 gift card and can expect to be notified by early June (up to 30 gift cards will be randomly selected from survey participants). For additional languages, or to request paper copies, contact survey@metop.io.
