This report describes the process and results of the 2006 Marion Community Assessment project, which was a comprehensive assessment of the health and social status of the Marion County (non-institutionalized) community. Data from community residents and key informants were collected through various surveys conducted at different time periods in 2006. Objective health and social data were collected from numerous sources in 2006 and 2007. However, the objective data that were collected were secondary data, that is, they were not collected originally for the purpose of this assessment project. Therefore, they were collected at different time periods, for different reasons, by different entities, and through different data collection methods. Information on the different sections of this report are provided to assist the reader in locating and interpreting the information in this report.
