Title V State Action Plan Introduction

After an extensive needs assessment process that included the review of Title V’s past priorities, strategies, programs, and partnerships, as well as feedback from its advisory council, Title V adopted the priorities provided below in FY21 (See Figure 1 entitled, 2021-2025 Title V Priorities). These priorities are guiding Title V’s efforts to improve the health of women, children, and families across Illinois through FY25. It is important to highlight that three of the priorities were repeated from the previous needs assessment process (FY2016 through FY20), three other priorities were slightly revised, and the remaining four priorities were new.
