MAPP IN A NUTSHELL MAPP includes two graphics that illustrate the process communities will undertake. Both graphics display the MAPP process, but in different ways. • In the MAPP model, the phases of the MAPP process are shown in the center of the model, while the four MAPP Assessments—the key content areas that drive the process—are shown in four outer arrows. • In the illustrated Community Roadmap, the process is shown moving along a road that leads to a healthier community. 6
To initiate the MAPP process, public and private agencies designated as leaders within the community begin by organizing themselves and preparing to implement MAPP (Organize for Success / Partnership Development). Community-wide strategic planning requires strong organization and a high level of commitment from partners, stakeholders, and the community residents who are recruited to participate. Introduction TO MAPP The second phase of the MAPP process is Visioning. A shared vision and common values provide a framework for pursuing long-range community goals. During this phase, the community answers questions such as “What would we like our community to look like in 10 years?” The next phase of MAPP involves the four MAPP Assessments listed below. These assessments can be conducted simultaneously or in an order determined by your community: • The Community Themes and Strengths Assessment provides a deep understanding of the issues residents feel are important by answering the questions, “What is important to our community?”“How is quality of life perceived in our community?” and “What assets do we have that can be used to improve community health?” • The Local Public Health System Assessment (LPHSA) is a comprehensive assessment that includes all of the organizations and entities that contribute to the public’s health. The LPHSA answers the questions, “What are the activities, competencies, and capacities of our local public health system?” and “How are the 10 Essential Public Health Services being provided to our community?” • The Community Health Status Assessment identifies priority community health and quality of life issues. Questions answered during the phase include, “How healthy are our residents?” and “What does the health status of our community look like?” • The Forces of Change Assessment focuses on the identification of forces such as legislation, technology, and other impending changes that affect the context in which the community and its public health system operates. This answers the questions, “What is occurring or might occur that affects the health of our community or the local public health system?” and “What specific threats or opportunities are generated by these occurrences?” Once a list of challenges and opportunities has been generated from each of the four assessments, the next step is to Identify Strategic Issues. During this phase, participants identify linkages between the MAPP assessments to determine the most critical issues that must be addressed for the community to achieve its vision. After issues have been identified, participants Formulate Goals and Strategies for addressing each issue. An important phase of MAPP is the Action Cycle. During this phase, participants plan for action, implement, and evaluate. These activities build upon one another in a continuous and interactive manner and ensure the continued success of MAPP activities. Introduction TO MAPP 7
