Happy Earth Day 🌎🌳🌿🌸
Today, we celebrate our beautiful planet that we call home. Small actions can make a big difference in protecting our planet, whether it's recycling, picking up litter, conserving water, or just spending time appreciating nature.
Let's work together to keep our Earth clean, healthy, and beautiful. Every effort makes a difference. 🌎

Our Clean-up Kick-off was a success! Thanks to our friends at Seneca Health Services for lending a hand in what was a great day to get some fresh air, move our bodies, and connect with our beautiful environment while keeping her healthy and gorgeous.
Stay tuned for how you can get our t-shirt for yourself and keep Nicholas County clean all spring and summer!

Today is COMMUNITY OUTREACH!
We love getting out in the community and helping our neighbors. Whether it's getting our Mountaineer Mile in, or taking immunization and family planning services to folks who can't get to our office, or even providing resources and education to Nicholas County citizens of all ages, it's one of our favorite parts of Public Health!!!
