Official Text
To the Honorable Board:
I hereby convey The Wellbeing Report of Somerville Report, 2017. This report is a collaborative effort between Health & Human Services and Cambridge Health Alliance (CHA). The Report is a comprehensive look at the health of city residents which highlights health across the life stages: prenatal and early childhood, school age and adolescent, early adult, young adult, middle adult, and older adult. In addition to data the Report references social determinants of health; connecting education, economy, housing, food security, and safety to health and how these social determinants impact the general wellbeing of a community. The report is available at www.somervillema.gov/wellbeing.
Please contact me if I can be of further assistance.

Director, Health & Human Services
