🌟 National Public Health Week Spotlight: Community Health Team 🌟

If you’ve been out and about in the community, chances are you’ve seen our Community Health Team in action! They’re the ones teaching, supporting, partnering, handing out resources, and doing a whole lot of behind-the-scenes work to help families stay healthy and safe.

Our Community Health team focuses on supporting women, children, and families through real, hands-on help. They offer:
👶 Safe sleep education
🚗 Car seat safety education and installation
🧷 Monthly diaper and wipe assistance for families who need a little extra support
🏫 Wellness education and healthy-environment guidance for local childcare providers through our Child Care Health Consultation program

You’ll see them at community events, visiting childcare centers, providing one-on-one support, or helping families right here at the health department. Their goal? Making sure families in our county have the tools and knowledge they need to thrive.

We’re so proud of the compassion, dedication, and energy they bring to Miller County every single day. 💙

Does talking about STIs make you cringe?

The reality is half of sexually active people will get an STI by age 25, and most STIs don’t show any symptoms. This , it’s time we drop the awk and have “the talk” about testing. See how it’s done with videos, scripts, convo starters, and more

If you live in Mid-Missouri, there are local resources available to help you:
✔️ Get tested (often low-cost or free)
✔️ Access treatment and prevention options
✔️ Ask questions in a safe, confidential space

Your health matters. Your privacy matters. And getting tested is a strong, responsible step toward protecting yourself and your community.
