Service Profile: PREVENTION EDUCATION
The new and improved Human Service Resource Guide (HRSG) is coming! Beginning on May 20, you will be able to use the new HSRG, with an enhanced ability to search for services and organizations, and a slightly different look and feel. While the web address is changing, the existing link will be redirected to the new one for about a year. Once you see the new HSRG, please update your bookmarks.
PREVENTION EDUCATION
Partnership for Healthier Kids (PHK) Prevention Program works with community partners to provide health education activities to children, parents, and educators. The Prevention Program now primarily provides nutrition and physical activity programs. Additionally, the program is charged with monitoring pediatric health trends to identify disparities and make recommendations for program development as needed. Based on a 2002 needs assessment, the need for prevention in the following areas were identified: nutrition and physical activity, mental health, and asthma. PHK strives to provide comprehensive prevention services to educators, parents, and children in these key health areas.
