At HealthPath, we know that the path to health equity begins with understanding the realities faced by communities across Ohio. That's why we’re excited to share a newly released resource from our partners at The Center for Community Solutions: Fact Sheets for Ohio’s 15 Federal Congressional Districts.
These fact sheets provide an in-depth look at critical indicators that affect the health and well-being of Ohioans—including demographics, economic stability, food security, housing, education and employment, health, and funding sources, organized by each of Ohio’s congressional districts.
As we continue to develop HealthPath’s new strategic plan, this data is especially valuable. HealthPath serves a 36-county region that spans across multiple congressional districts, including both rural and urban communities with distinct challenges and opportunities.
These counties include:
Adams, Allen, Auglaize, Belmont, Brown, Butler, Carroll, Clark, Clermont, Clinton, Columbiana, Darke, Greene, Hamilton, Hancock, Hardin, Harrison, Highland, Holmes, Jefferson, Mahoning, Mercer, Miami, Monroe, Montgomery, Noble, Preble, Putnam, Scioto, Shelby, Stark, Trumbull, Tuscarawas, Van Wert, Warren, and Washington.
Across these areas, the fact sheets reveal:
Significant disparities in poverty and food insecurity rates
Varying levels of health insurance coverage
Gaps in access to affordable housing and quality education
Different levels of public and private funding flowing into communities
This kind of data reinforces the importance of locally grounded, equity-driven solutions. As we listen, learn, and plan with our partners and community members, these insights will help shape our grantmaking, advocacy, and long-term vision.
We encourage fellow funders, nonprofit leaders, and community advocates to explore the fact sheets and use this data to inform strategy, spark conversation, and drive change.
Together, we can forge a healthier Ohio one district, one community at a time.
