Last week our office participated in the Savor the Decades Dinner with help from Healthy Clay County Coalition, Thrive West Central, and Honeysuckle Hill Bee-stro. Part of the Thrive Together project, the goal of this dinner was to help fight against loneliness, especially in our senior population. Everyone had a blast and the food was delicious!

If you are interested in joining the Healthy Clay County Coalition to improve the health of our Clay County community, please reach out to HHS Educator Olivia to learn more.
