Sent in by members of our JCPH team, these videos remind us of something simple. We all overthink what to say sometimes, but you don’t need perfect words to show you care.

Show up tired, quiet or unsure — it still matters. Being there means more than being perfect. #PublicHealth

Removing proven protection from newborns is not a small decision. It has real consequences — and some will be deadly.
The evidence has not changed. The need for the Hepatitis B birth dose has not changed.

Foodborne illness doesn’t always strike fast. It can take hours—or days—to show up. So before you blame that restaurant, remember: germs can hide in your kitchen, on pets and beyond the plate. Know where risks hide. Learn more: www.jeffco.us/FoodSafety #FineArtOfFoodSafety

We came to #NACCHO360 for ideas, clarity and community and left with all three, plus s’mores, surf attempts and the kind of connection that fuels this work.
Holding hope is no soft thing - It's quiet strength in motion. The work continues. So do we.

A year ago, the JCPH mobile clinic hit the road to meet people where they are - since then there have been 13 events, 163 vaccines and countless community connections.
Here's to another year of showing up with care and compassion.
