National Public Health Week is underway, and the Henry & Stark County Health Departments, along with First Choice Healthcare, are highlighting services essential to community well-being. Today, special recognition goes to the teams supporting Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) and Maternal & Child Health Services. These programs ensure local mothers and children have access to free groceries and guidance on healthy living. Staff members work tirelessly to foster healthy habits and improve the overall health of families across the counties. Residents are encouraged to learn more about these impactful programs and the ongoing commitment to public health in the area. For more information, visit their website here.
National Public Health Week takes place from April 6th to April 12th under the theme “Ready. Set. Action.” Special recognition is given to maternal and child health staff, including Heather A., Jen A., Beth M., Julie D., Lisa P., Jodi J., and Sabrina T., for their dedication and service.
