The Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) provides a description of the health and wellbeing status of the local population and informs the local Health and Wellbeing Board’s strategy and commissioning priorities for health, public health and social care. However, there is huge variation in how well mental health is covered in JSNAs. This briefing provides ten questions to ensure that relevant mental health information is included in the JSNA to promote good mental health and to prevent and treat mental health conditions.
