Maryland State Health Improvement Process

The Maryland State Health Improvement Process (SHIP) is a collaborative effort to enhance the health and well-being of residents across Maryland. It involves gathering data, setting priorities, and implementing strategies to address public health issues like chronic disease, mental health, and access to care. SHIP engages communities, organizations, and government agencies to create targeted, evidence-based actions aimed at improving health outcomes, reducing disparities, and promoting health equity throughout the state.
