Five Mountains Medical is trying to assessing how health the community is (good place to live, work, play, raise a family, heal)--and we're like to benefit from indicators already developed (and in use) for small areas. We have lots of information on process---it's finding actual matrices of constructs, indicators, specific measures and data bases---preferrably, used. We've located the "usuals" such as Healthy People 2000 and 2001--but's it's proving quite a challenge to get beyond the general exhortations to virtue to pragmatics: actual use of matrices by communities to assess and improve. Hope the U. Kansas site (recommended by Dr Brett Hodson of Alberta, Canada, will be helpful!
