Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP)
Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP) is a community-driven strategic planning process for improving community health. Facilitated by public health leaders, this framework helps communities apply strategic thinking to prioritize public health issues and identify resources to address them. MAPP is not an agency-focused assessment process; rather, it is an interactive process that can improve the efficiency, effectiveness, and ultimately the performance of local public health systems.
MAPP Evolution: A Blueprint for the Future
Following a national evaluation of the MAPP framework, NACCHO is spearheading a MAPP evolution process to adapt the framework and related training and resources to better meet current field needs and trends around community health improvement (CHI). The evaluation provided foundational evidence for MAPPs effectiveness in facilitating CHI processes including initiating partnerships, understanding community perspectives, and meeting national standards and requirements. However, the study also provided foundational evidence for the need to update the framework to better integrate health equity and community engagement, address limitations and inefficiencies throughout the process, offer advanced training and resources, and expand its applicability to a broader variety of communities. With funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Health Resources and Services Administration, NACCHO worked with the field to outline revisions to the framework and develop a multi-year blueprint for conducting a MAPP re-design.

Getting Started
As NACCHO is evolving the MAPP framework, we recognize that this important work cannot be put on hold and encourage communities to continue their MAPP processes using the current framework.
