Health district receives award for drive

Galveston Daily News

Way to go Galveston County Health District. The health district recently received the Thinking Progressively for Health Award from the Texas Public Health Association.

Our county’s health district was honored because of its role in aggressive strategies taken to improve immunization rates in the county.

Galveston County’s immunization rates are lower than the national average. Through the health district’s new Strategic Health Plan, immunizing children and adults has taken priority. 

We applaud the health district for recognizing and taking action to improve the health of our community. Congratulations to everyone involved.
