http://inthecityforgoodmn.org Rochester, MN community inventory of services and organizations http://inthecityforgoodmn.org/community-events/creating-americans-city-for-health One of the greatest assets of the Rochester region is the level of engagement and volunteerism around issues of health and community. However, in some cases these initiatives and programs are being done in isolation which causes confusion and at worse competition for resources. In response to this, the working group determined that the best approach is to 1) assess the initiatives/programs already in place, 2) share (make visible) the initiatives/programs within and across the community 3) connect community needs with associated initiatives/programs, and 4) support initiative/program development to best fill community gaps. 2026-04-21T17:07:51Z Event http://inthecityforgoodmn.org/community-events/city-for-health-meeting-and-next-steps As such we discussed the need for a space to create connections, bi-directional information sharing, relationships and action around the health issues facing Rochester and the surrounding communities. 2026-04-21T15:09:18Z Event http://inthecityforgoodmn.org/community-events/city-for-health Overview of past year – what is the need as defined by group Purpose statement and principles defined in last meeting (December) Charge as defined by DMC leadership (Kevin) – a framework/tool for guiding development and programming [THE WHY] Reflections 2026-04-21T15:21:25Z Event http://inthecityforgoodmn.org/community-events/Codesign%20Folder/dmc-eda-america-city-for-health-group-meeting America's City for Health Straw Model 2026-04-21T16:36:31Z Event http://inthecityforgoodmn.org/community-events/city-for-health-august-meeting Thanks to all of you that were able to attend our last meeting in late June 2019 (or send your thoughts beforehand as Dee did), which included an appearance by Mayor Norton!
