To the doctors who answer the call at all hours, who listen with compassion, who celebrate our recoveries and stand by us through difficult diagnoses — thank you. Your dedication, expertise, and humanity make a profound difference in countless lives.
We're grateful for YOU and all you do! 💛
Take a moment today to think of a physician who has made a difference in your life or the life of someone you love. Their commitment to healing deserves our recognition not just today, but every day.

Thank you to everyone who joined us this past Saturday for our first "Take a Hike" event and to the Jefferson County Greenways Naturalists for leading an excellent tour through Birmingham's mining history. Walking the paths of the Smythe Mining Camp, Mine #13, and the Company Store was truly fascinating!
We had a fantastic turnout and loved exploring the trails with you all. If you missed this one, don't worry—we'd love to see you at our next event! Stay tuned for more opportunities to get outdoors and connect with your JCMS community.

The DEA warns of a widespread fraud scheme where scammers impersonate DEA agents to extort money or steal personal information. Real DEA personnel never demand money or payment, never request sensitive information over the phone, and only notify people of investigations in person or by official letter. No legitimate federal law enforcement officer will ever demand cash or gift cards. Only share money, gift cards, or personal information with people you know.
