Salud America! Launches New Report for Members

August 18, 2016

SA-logoCommunity Commons and its partner Salud America! are excited to announce the release of a new, custom tool: The Salud Report Card!

This new tool is designed to help identify and communicate what health issues are important to you and your community. The report can be downloaded, printed and shared online making it easy to provide vital information to key figures like local and state PTA, health departments, city leaders, friends, and family.

Know the Issues, Start a Change

Want to begin to address and help solve health issues facing Latinos and their children? Learn more about Salud America! by watching our recent webinar where we first announced the Salud Report Card.

The Salud America! Hub provides comprehensive content, resources, and research; which suggests lots of achievable healthy changes. You can also view some of the many posts about policy changes happening now, or follow the footsteps of the many Salud Heroes making an impact in their communities. For example, building a fitness trail!

Create a Report in Your Area

The Salud Report Card highlights key health issues in your county with data, policy solutions, research, and stories so you can start and support healthy changes for Latino kids. One of the largest hubs on the site, members of Salud America! are able to create these geo-located reports, using mapping and data tools on the provided by Community Commons.

SA! Report Highlights

Simply select your state and county and the Report Card will specifically exam the following in your county:

The Report Card can help you quickly get data and research in to the hands of those who need it most, and can be used to justify and advocate for grant funding and policy change. Which of the topics in the Report Card stand out in your county? Comment below and tell us what you think of this new tool.
