SPREAD THE WORD

Education and awareness campaigns are key strategies in the Tri-County Health Improvement Plan (TCHIP) to improve the health and well-being of every person and community in the Tri-County area.  In September, help spread the word and raise awareness about childhood obesity, prostate cancer, healthy aging, food safety and recovery which align with health priorities in our region.
