Cobb2020 – A Partnership for a Healthier Cobb County was formed in April 2011 and is a partnership of community organizations dedicated to promoting healthy lifestyles and improving the delivery of essential health services in Cobb County. Following the Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP) framework, the Cobb2020 Steering Committee has studied data from the 2021-2022 Community Health Assessment (CHA) and developed the Community Health Improvement Plan III, 2023-2027 (CHIP). The CHIP functions as our plan of action for building a healthier community. Through partnerships and strategic planning, Cobb2020 works to identify the leading health problems and implement community initiatives to reach our goals.
