United Way of Treasure Valley 2017 Community Assessment

The United Way of Treasure Valley (UWTV) stands against poverty. UWTV fights for the health, education, and financial stability of every person in every community in the Treasure Valley. UWTV periodically assesses community needs, resources, and potential solutions to our common challenges. The 2017 Community Assessment focuses on three of the most critical building blocks of a stable life for Treasure Valley residents—financial stability, health, and education. These continue to be priorities addressed by UWTV through collective impact initiatives. The 2017 Community Assessment uses a combination of quantitative data (numbers) plus qualitative data (stories and observations) that were obtained via 14 focus groups and 22 one-on-one interviews conducted in the fall of 2016 and spring of 2017. This process helped to develop a consistent and comprehensive picture of the issues faced by residents of the Treasure Valley.
