Key Features of Local Needs Assessment

• Describe the makeup and history of the community
  to provide a context within which to collect data
  on its current concerns.
• Describe what matters to local people
• Describe the needs identified by community
  stakeholders
• Compile and describe the evidence suggesting that
  identified issues should be a priority
• Describe the resources available in or to the
  community that help address this issue

Getting Traction with Local Needs Assessment

• Build recognition of and support for the need for
  some type of initiative and action
• Involve critical sectors and key stakeholders of
  the community to ensure the process is relevant
  for identifying actual needs
• Acknowledge and validate barriers or promoters to
  local-level change
• Develop a plan to handle potentially negative
  needs assessment results
• Plan for time, resources, and expertise

Michigan Profile for Healthy Youth (MiPHY)

• Why?
• Best Practice for prevention science and at
  MDE/MDCH
• Closes Capacity Gap. Most communities do not have
  the time, resources and/or skills to collect,
  enter, manage, analyze, and report drug and
  violence data, especially trend data
• Opens up much-needed resources for other steps of
  a strategic prevention framework at state,
  regional, and local level

10
