As the leaves around Garrett County begin to turn, and fall quickly approaches, a new series is on the horizon for MyGarrettCounty.com. Just as our team has worked to increase access to physical activity with the wildly popular Summer of Fitness & Fun campaign (https://gogarrettcounty.com/category/summer-of-fitness-and-fun/), we’re excited to begin a new series highlighting the data from the recent 2022 – 2024 Garrett County Community Health Assessment (CHA) (https://mygarrettcounty.com/cha2024/)!
While fall is an extraordinarily busy time with back-to-school, sports, community events, and more, we’re thrilled to begin sharing the highlights, insights, and findings that illustrate the current status of Garrett County and the surrounding area.
Stay tuned for more as this series begins later this month!
In the meantime, it’s also important to note that the 2022 KIDS COUNT Data + Data Book are now available!
KIDS COUNT Data Center (For Maryland): https://datacenter.kidscount.org/data#MD/5/0/char/0

These data sets and comparison tools are incredibly important for local grant planning and can be used to benchmark Garrett County’s performance on key metrics with other surrounding counties.
Lastly, we want to hear from you! What types of data would you like us to highlight in this new series? Tell us below!
