The goal of the report, first published in 2018, is to promote a better understanding of the critical community well-being needs and opportunities in the Greater Waterbury region and to highlight some promising practices that are underway to improve community health. Socioeconomic factors, physical environment, clinical care, and health behaviors are all key pieces of well-being. Towns in the region include Beacon Falls, Bethlehem, Bridgewater, Cheshire, Goshen, Litchfield, Middlebury, Morris, Naugatuck, New Milford, Oxford, Prospect, Roxbury, Southbury, Thomaston, Warren, Washington, Waterbury, Watertown, Wolcott, and Woodbury. The report uses data from the DataHaven Community Wellbeing Survey as well as other federal, state, and local data sources analyzed by DataHaven.
In 2020, the Greater Waterbury Health Partnership released an updated version of the profile, with support from DataHaven, which is posted here.
In 2022, the Greater Waterbury Health Partnership released its 2022 Community Health Needs Assessment, with support from DataHaven, which is posted here.
