Public health is defined as the "science and practice of improving and protecting the health of
communities and populations." How exactly does this translate to our community or more
specifically- you?
We aimed to create a
resource guide that was relevant to the families and individuals that live in
beautiful Douglas County and the challenges that may arise on any given day. We hope this can be
used as a tool for our residents to familiarize themselves with the wonderful local agencies and
businesses who act as pillars of support in keeping us healthy. Whether you are in search of a
support group, a primary care provider, resources for a vulnerable adult, or even a preschool - it's in
here.
Our goal in highlighting Douglas County Public Health is to let you know that your health and
wellbeing is of the utmost importance to us. Whether it be environmental, mental, or physical - we
are constantly seeking ways to improve the health of our community as a whole so that you can
focus on living your best possible life with the comfort of knowing that support is here when you
need it.
So, Douglas County, let's Elevate: Your Health. Your Future. Our Community. Together.
