Welcome to the East Sussex Joint Strategic Needs & Assets Assessment website.
The Joint Strategic Needs & Assets Assessment (JSNAA) is a process that identifies both the health and wellbeing needs (i.e. problems) and assets (i.e. strengths) of the people,
communities and populations in East Sussex. This website provides a central JSNAA resource of local and national information to inform decisions and plans to improve local people’s
health and wellbeing and reduce health inequalities in East Sussex.
Needs and Assets Profiles, updated annually, draw together information from national profiles and local indicator scorecards to identify issues, health needs and assets for each area. Most recent:
