Health Education & Promotion
The Health Education and Promotion area facilitates and participates in multiple community coalitions and initiatives and provides public health education to prevent and decrease tobacco use, increase physical activity, improve nutrition, facilitate the management of chronic diseases, and decrease substance misuse using evidence-based strategies.
Health Education staff focus on policies, systems, and environmental strategies designed to address health equity and improve Reno County residents' social determinants of health using upstream initiatives and cross-sector collaborations.
Reno County Health Department Health Educators provide engaging, age-appropriate, and evidence-based programming designed to support healthy choices and lifelong wellness. Our Educators provide a wide range of health education presentations and lesson plans for elementary, middle and high school students, as well as tailor sessions for community groups, organizations, and professional partners.
