This toolkit guides epidemiologists through data collection in assessment areas, fieldwork with at-risk populations, and community data analysis to mitigate risk before and after an emergency. Numerous forms promote informed community decision-making for epidemiologic response.The toolkit, developed in collaboration with subject matter experts, features examples of community risk assessments submitted by state and local health departments. This tool was identified through NACCHOs Resource Portfolio Project on the CDC Public Health Preparedness Capabilities. Through this project, NACCHO worked with the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP) to identify, research, and VALIDATE tools, practices, and products that can assist LHDs to address challenges in meeting select PHEP capabilities.
