Chronic Disease Risk Reduction

The Health Department is part of the Montgomery County Wellness Coalition with other partners to address the Health Disparities of our population. The health department is currently part of the KDHE Chronic Disease Risk Reduction (CDRR) program. This grant targets tobacco cessation, increasing physical activity, and improving nutrition.

The mission of the coalition is to Improve the health outcomes of all Montgomery county residents.

We work with communities in the county to apply for grants such as Rails To Trails, Sunflower sidewalk and biking paths/trails, Safe Routes to School, Healthy Communities Initiative.
