What Is a Service Planning Area? A Service Planning Area, or SPA, is simply a specific geographic region within Los Angeles County. Due to the large size of LA County (4,300 square miles), it has been divided into 8 geographic areas. These distinct regions allow the Department of Public Health to develop and provide more relevant public health and clinical services targeted to the specific health needs of the residents in these different areas.

Strategic planning helps organizations act more intentionally and accomplish their goals, but sometimes, teams dread the process or feel like their plan doesn't connect to their actual work.
