 MAPP Model Needs Assessment and Identification of an FOA Presentation In this assignment, you will complete a public health needs assessment MAPP matrix template. Next, you will utilize the FOA that addresses the public health intervention that addresses your chosen topic. You will then create a PowerPoint presentation that demonstrates your chosen public health intervention and provides information about your MAPP matrix and the pertinent FOA.

Part I: Conduct an MAPP Matrix Needs Assessment

Conduct a public health needs assessment using the MAPP model. It will result in a MAPP matrix, which identifies a public health need in which you are personally interested.

All MAPP information can be obtained from the National Association of City and County Health Officials (NACCHO) Web site at the following:

• National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO). (2012). Mobilizing for action through planning and partnerships (MAPP). Retrieved from http://www.naccho.org/topics/infrastructure/mapp/index.cfm

Four assessments of the MAPP model and the issues they address are described below:

• Community Themes and Strengths Assessments: This assessment results in a deeper understanding of the issues that residents feel are important by answering the questions:

a. What is important to our community?

b. How is quality of life perceived in our community?

c. What assets do we have that can be used to improve community health?

• Local Public Health System Assessment (LPHSA): This assessment focuses on all the organizations and entities that contribute to the public’s health. The LPHSA answers the questions:
  1. What are the components, activities, competencies, and capacities of our local public health system?
  2. How are the essential services being provided to our community?
• Community Health Status Assessment: This assessment identifies priority community health and quality-of-life issues. Questions answered include:

a. How healthy are our residents?

b. What does the health status of our community look like?

• Forces of Change Assessment: This assessment focuses on identifying forces such as legislation, technology, and other impending changes that affect the context in which the community and its public health system operate. This answers the questions:

a. What is occurring or might occur that affects the health of our community or the local public health system?

b. What specific threats or opportunities are generated by these occurrences?

Part II: Identify Funding Opportunity

After you have completed your public health needs assessment matrix template, you will create a presentation that addresses the following:

• Identify your chosen public health intervention that relates to your MPH coursework.
• Explain how (using the MAPP Model) you completed the matrix template to identify your chosen public health intervention. 
• Explain why the intervention is an important initiative.
• Identify whom the intervention will assist (target audience).
• Explain the general requirements of the FOA.
• Describe, at a high-level, your intended approach in response to your chosen public health intervention, if awarded this grant.

Develop an 8–10-slide presentation in Microsoft PowerPoint format. Be sure to use speaker notes at the bottom of each slide to provide detailed information. If you know how to insert an audio file, feel free to use that approach as well. Your goal is to fully inform your audience about your chosen public health intervention and chosen FOA. Utilize at least 3–5 scholarly sources in your research and be sure to include a references page. Cite all sources on a separate page using APA standards. Write in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources; and display accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_W3_A2.ppt.

• By the due date assigned, deliver your assignment to the Submissions Area.

Since the inception of public health programs, vital statistics have been a critical factor in the effort to improve sanitation and to control disease. Today, mortality and morbidity data are used more generally to study trends and differentials in all kinds of causes of death and illness. The availability of mortality and morbidity statistics for small geographic units has contributed uniquely to the value of these data for epidemiologic investigations, surveillance, and informatics.

List and explain at least three of the five major challenges posed by current methods of collecting morbidity data with respect to data accuracy and data reliability.

Why it is important for those collecting morbidity data to be able to ensure confidentiality for respondents, and list the legislative and administrative requirements imposed on the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) with respect to data confidentiality.

Morbidity and mortality statistical reporting come from, in part, coded medical data transmitted through electronic data interchange (EDI) from Health Information Management Systems (HIMS) to PHIS. These data have all been standardized under HIPAA. Explain what it means to use coded data in data collections from the HIMS and/or PHIS

Submission Details:

• Write your response in a minimum of 300–400 words, providing relevant references. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Respond to at least two students’ postings.
