March 10 is National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day ( ).

This year’s theme, Hope, Health, and Healing: Overcoming Barriers to HIV/AIDS Treatment for Women and Girls, highlights the importance of expanding access to testing, treatment, and prevention services.

Women and girls face unique barriers to HIV care, including stigma, lack of access to health services, and social and economic challenges.

Have you ever considered working with a doula during pregnancy or after delivery? 🤍

Our trained doulas are available to connect with you and share more about the support and services they offer—from pregnancy through postpartum. Many doulas can also bill Medicaid for eligible services.

Stop by the Health Department on Tuesday, March 3, from 10 AM–3 PM to meet the doulas, ask questions, and learn how they can support you and your family.

We’d love to see you there!

The Ingham County Office of Environmental Sustainability is currently working to develop the County’s Materials Management Plan (MMP) and is inviting residents, businesses, community organizations, and local units of government to help shape the future of recycling, composting, and waste reduction in our community.

The Materials Management Plan will establish long-term goals and strategies to improve recycling access, reduce waste sent to landfills, expand composting opportunities, and strengthen overall materials management systems across Ingham County. Community input is a critical part of this process!

As part of this effort, we are seeking broad public participation through a short survey. Your feedback will help identify local priorities, challenges, and opportunities related to recycling, composting, waste reduction, and overall materials management in Ingham County. No prior knowledge or technical expertise is needed. The survey takes only a few minutes to complete and will help to inform development of the County’s Materials Management Plan.

👉 Take the survey here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ingham-county-recycling-composting

February is American Heart Month. Did you know that nearly 3 out of 4 cardiac arrests that occur outside of a hospital happen at home?

Anyone can save a life. In every cardiac emergency, the real first responder is not always a uniformed professional — it is often a friend, family member, or even a stranger nearby. Ordinary people have extraordinary power. You are the first responder until professional help arrives.

Learn the two simple steps of Hands-Only CPR and be prepared to act. If a teen or adult collapses, call 911 and push hard and fast in the center of the chest until help arrives.

Join the Nation of Lifesavers by learning CPR today.
