The WELL DORADO website is intended to help community members and policy makers learn about the health of El Dorado County communities, support collaboration among partners, promote best practices, identify local resources, and drive decisions based on data. Our goal is to strengthen and build healthier communities through the provision of state-of the art web-based assessment and improvement tools.
WELL DORADO brings non-biased data, local resources and a wealth of information to one accessible, user-friendly location. The intent is to give our community the tools we need to read and understand the public health indicators that affect the quality of our residents' lives. The tools can also help the community set goals and evaluate progress. Community groups, schools, health associations, chambers of commerce, tourism and many other organizations can use this information to show the great benefits of living in El Dorado County as well as opportunities for improvement, with specific information. Master planners and government can use this data to establish community goals on a variety of platforms. The data is updated whenever source data is updated providing the most up-to-date information of its kind.
The evolving nature of this website allows all users of the WELL DORADO website to contribute information and ideas. The promising practices section highlights exemplary programs and successes of local, state and national health departments; it also allows individuals to search for information when they face a similar situation or as a resource.
If you or your group is interested in a hands-on demonstration on how to use and explore Welldorado, please contact us here.
The WELL DORADO website is funded by the Public Health Division of the Health and Human Services Agency. We hope you find it beneficial.
