How We Make a Difference

At Roosevelt County Health Council, we’re dedicated to building a healthier, safer, and stronger community through the following efforts:

• We work to reduce alcohol, marijuana, and other drug use among youth.

• We educate the public about the legal and personal risks of providing alcohol to minors.

• We promote safe and responsible choices to reduce drinking and driving at all ages.

• We share information and resources to prevent prescription drug misuse and abuse, helping to lower opioid addiction and overdose rates.

• We support better nutrition and physical activity opportunities for both students and the wider community.

• We oversee a national volunteer service program that trains members to make a positive impact in their local communities.

• We assist individuals and families experiencing homelessness in finding stable housing, and help those at risk of homelessness stay in their homes.

• We encourage cultural awareness, inclusion, and strong community relationships.

• We offer programs and information that empower people to make healthy, informed lifestyle choices.

• We collaborate with local partners and organizations to combine efforts and strengthen our county’s resources.
