Needs Highlights
From 2024 Snohomish County PIHC Health and Well-being Monitor.
See the full 2024 summary report.
This year Mental Health was the second most impactful indicator on our county’s overall well-being score. Results also showed that mental health is strongly related to multiple areas of wellbeing; our physical health, sense of purpose and meaning, relationships with others, and opportunities for learning and growth.
Look for a variety of local resources to support Mental, Emotional and Spiritual well-being at www.livewelllocal.org
Visit our webpage to learn more about the annual PIHC Health and Wellbeing Monitor which measures indicators that our community identified within six key dimensions that work together to enhance health and improve quality of life, and how smaller community groups like churches, neighborhoods, or regions within the county can conduct their own survey—a My Community Health and Well Being Monitor.
