Measuring Wellbeing in North Central Washington
Washington Environmental Health Disparities Map
In 2025, Thriving Together NCW partnered with the Washington State Department of Health to host community dialogues across North Central Washington as part of the Environmental Health Disparities Map project. By bringing local voices and lived experiences into the process, these conversations will help inform updates to a statewide tool used to guide investments, policy, and resources.
This new summary report shares what we heard from communities across the region and the key themes that emerged from these conversations.
Host a Community Dialogue
Creating a region that supports our aspiration of all people and places thriving will require authentic dialogue. At Thriving Together NCW, we recognize that both quantitative and qualitative data are essential to understanding the factors that contribute to or hinder an individual’s wellbeing.
To support partners who are interested in hosting community dialogues within their own networks, Thriving Together NCW put together a few resources, to get you started.
-
This comprehensive guidebook will provide you with the insights and tools needed to host meaningful and engaging conversations.
-
This template will help you organize the notes you take during the community dialogue.
Once you’ve completed a community dialogue, please click on the button below to share your notes from the session.
NCW Wellbeing Report
Thriving Together NCW launched the North Central Washington Wellbeing Survey in 2024 to better understand what helps or prevents our community members from thriving. Measuring wellbeing helps us see whether the conditions we are working to strengthen are translating into better lives for people across North Central Washington. We encourage partners to explore the findings and consider how they can inform our collective work.
Shared Measurement Data Inventory
Good decisions start with understanding what we already know. Across North Central Washington, organizations are collecting valuable data about our communities, but that information often lives in different places.
Our Shared Measurement Data Inventory brings these insights together in one accessible resource, making it easier for partners to learn from one another, strengthen grant writing and program planning, identify gaps in what we know, and avoid duplicating data collection efforts.
By visiting the Shared Measurement Data Inventory, you can:
Explore regional data and reports contributed by organizations across our network.
Share your organization’s data and reports to help grow this shared regional resource.
Tell us about upcoming data collection efforts so we can help spread the word, encourage participation, and connect your work with others across the region.
