2025-28 County of Monterey Health Department Strategic Plan

County of Monterey Health Department's 2025-2028 Strategic Plan serves as a guide to the Department's work. This plan also ensures the Department is able to quickly respond to emerging needs and opportunities.

The report begins by presenting the County of Monterey Health System, which includes the collaborative work of the County of Monterey Health Department and Natividad Medical Center. Across the system, we serve our patients and our communities by providing person-centered care and community-focused care and services. The Health Department’s range of functions ensures that this system supports the health and wellbeing of our community members at multiple levels, from safety net services to upstream prevention.

Organized around four goals, this plan provides direction for how to leverage finite funding, our employees’ expertise and dedication, and our strong relationships with community leaders and organizations.
