Just a reminder that due to the Veterans Day holiday on November 11, our LHEAT (Local Health Engagement Action Team) meeting will be held tomorrow (November 4) at noon in Classroom B at St. Catherine Hospital.

I have some updates to share on the action plans we discussed last month, and I’m looking forward to continuing the conversation and making progress on our priorities!

Hope to see everyone tomorrow!

Building a healthier community takes teamwork! This week’s LiveWell Finney County newsletter highlights how local partnerships are bringing diabetes prevention opportunities to our community, including a successful National Diabetes Prevention Program class hosted by Golden Plains Credit Union.

We’re also exploring changing youth nicotine trends, what parents and trusted adults should know about nicotine pouches, and how positive conversations can help young people make healthy choices.

Plus, November is National Diabetes Month! Discover how small lifestyle changes can make a big difference, learn how to stay connected with LiveWell, and check out our upcoming community meetings.

We’re excited to share that Finney County is participating in the National Association of Counties’ Operation Green Light program this year!

Join us on Wednesday, November 4, at 6 p.m. on the Finney County East Courthouse Lawn for a lighting ceremony honoring the service and sacrifices of our nation’s veterans.

Through Operation Green Light, we’re showing our support for veterans and their families by shining a green light in recognition of all they have given in service to our country.

We invite our community to join us as we come together to honor those who have served.
