Community Members Invited to Help Shape Future Health and Environmental Decisions

The Washington State Department of Health is inviting community members to participate in an upcoming online discussion about the Environmental Health Disparities (EHD) Map and how it can help guide future investments, programs, and policies across the state.

CHOICE Regional Health Network is helping spread the because state officials want to hear directly from residents, not just organizations, agencies, and community leaders. The goal is to ensure that future decisions reflect the real experiences, concerns, and needs of the people most affected by environmental and health challenges in their communities.

To encourage participation, eligible attendees will receive a $125 Walmart e-gift card upon completion of the Washington Department of Health Acknowledgment and Information Form, which will be completed during the meeting.

The session will feature Dr. Claudine Richardson, Community Engagement Strategist for the Washington State Department of Health's Environmental Health Disparities Map program. Participants do not need any prior knowledge or experience with the EHD Map to attend. The presentation is designed to be accessible and welcoming to all community members.

Sometimes your steady presence gives your child the courage to learn from the moment.

It can be hard to step back and let the lesson unfold, especially when you want to protect them from discomfort.

But children often grow stronger when they are allowed to experience the results of their choices with your love still close by.

Your child can handle more than you think.

And with your love beside them, they can grow through it!
