Making Wisconsin the Healthiest State

The objective of this four-year project is to identify the most effective investments for and to monitor Wisconsin's progress towards becoming the nation's healthiest state with less health disparity. This is a research and translation effort funded by the Wisconsin Partnership Fund for a Healthy Future to:

1. assess Wisconsin's population health in a way that can be periodically compared with the population health of other US states (using existing secondary data)
   
   
   • Health of Wisconsin Report Card
   • Healthiest State Publications
   
   
2. develop an evidence-based plan so that we can efficiently achieve and maintain the goal of being the healthiest state with less disparity. This phase will involve systematic reviews of relevant literature and solicitation of expert input
   
   
   • Healthiest State Phase II Topics
   • Opportunities to Make Wisconsin the Healthiest State
   • Healthiest State Evidence
