Mosquitoes are more than a nuisance—they can spread serious illnesses such as West Nile virus, dengue, and Zika. Protect yourself and your family by using insect repellent, wearing long sleeves, and eliminating standing water around your home. Every bite prevented is a step toward a healthier community.

June is Men’s Health Month.
Preventive care, regular checkups, physical activity, and healthy habits can help reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke.

Swim lessons help reduce the risk of drowning, and CPR training can prepare you to act in an emergency. Together, these life-saving skills can help keep you and your loved ones safer around water.

Mosquitoes aren’t just a nuisance—they can spread disease. Everyone can take simple steps to help reduce mosquito populations:

✅ Empty or drain standing water
✅ Repair holes in screens
✅ Use EPA-registered larvicides (follow the label!)

This Juneteenth, we celebrate freedom, resilience, and the continued pursuit of equity for all.
While significant progress has been made, African American communities continue to experience higher rates of chronic disease, maternal health complications, and barriers to healthcare access.
Honoring Juneteenth means recognizing these challenges and working together to build healthier, stronger communities.
