Join Us For A Meeting

We invite everyone to our coalition meetings to have a “seat at the table of discussion,” where we come together to discuss critical health issues as a community.

Your participation is vital as we collaborate on innovative solutions and strategies to improve the well-being of everyone in our area. However, we understand that not everyone can attend meetings or join a team. There are some other ways you can help! 

You can mention our resources to anyone who might need them or speak to your employer or church leaders about partnering with LWK. Every partnership strengthens us and helps increase our reach to everyone in the county!

Whether you are a health professional, an advocate, or someone who cares about our community’s health, your input and ideas are invaluable.  Let’s work together to create a healthier, stronger community.  Together, we CAN LIVEWELL! 

Workgroup meetings are the third week of the month. 

Mental Health Workgroup meets on Tuesdays.

Resilient Children and Families meets on Fridays. 

LWK Coalition meets quarterly.
