The Community
Health Assistance Resource Team (CHART) provides valuable resources and expert
technical assistance that enable Missouri communities to assess and improve their
community's health through local collaboration.
The CHART partnership is a coalition that represents statewide health
and community-related agencies and organizations. These organizations believe in the value
of health status assessment and support community development activities that are
sustained at the local level. The partnership is built upon three key principles:
- partner collaboration and participation
- the development and availability of technical assistance for communities
- the provision of tools and resources for communities to use to help build
local coalitions and improve community health
CHART is responsible for coordinating project activities and is housed
in the Missouri Department of Health. CHART provides community-specific technical
assistance through personal interaction at the community level, as well as by telephone.
The CHART team also provides a clearinghouse for project-related information and resource
materials for communities.
