Community Needs Assessment
In the fall of 2010, King's Daughters' Health completed its latest Community Needs Assessment to identify the leading health issues facing families in the communities we serve. A complete summary and a variety of other links are listed below. Working together, we hope the information gathered during the survey processes will serve as a stepping stone toward better health for everyone.
Tobacco use, substance abuse, and obesity continue to be major risk factors in our area. If you have specific questions about the Community Needs Assessment, please contact the Community Relations office at 812-265-0128.

While no one person, organization, or group can solve these issues individually, we can make a difference if we work together. King's Daughters' Health has taken an active role in community wellness activities. Through available grants and other initiatives, we have helped facilitate programs such as the Tobacco Cessation Program and Creating Positive Relations Program (abstinence-based sexual education). We also work with local businesses to improve the health and wellness of employees throughout the region. Further, KDH offers a variety of exercise and fitness opportunities. See our Calendar.
