Veterans Resources Page
The Healthy Minds and Suicide Prevention Coalition, a Work Group of the Howard County Local Health Improvement Coalition (HCLHIC), seeks to encourage residents to have conversations about mental health and to promote help-seeking behaviors.

Based on input from Work Group members, an extensive Veterans Resources page was created on the HCLHIC website to serve as a 'one-stop' location for Veterans resources. Coalition members are asked to view and share the new Veterans Resources page on the HCLHIC website.
The Howard County Health Department (HCHD) is pleased to present the 2022 Annual Report outlining the renewed purpose and how the outlined priorities have been implemented to further the health and well-being of those in the County. The report also outlines plans for 2023 to ensure that the top priority is maintained and everyone has a fair and equal opportunity to be as healthy as possible.
The Howard County Health Department's Bureau of Behavioral Health is conducting a survey to understand the reach and effectiveness of prevention messaging.

Coalition members are asked to take the anonymous survey and share the link with others to help improve future campaign efforts.
