The nursing office would like to extend a heartfelt thanks to our friends at Healthy Androscoggin. They've been working with us to educate the staff and students about the risks and health complications associated with nicotine use in all forms, to include vaping. Healthy Androscoggin works to create a community of thriving residents by giving individuals tools to live a healthy life. We also know that creating a community that values and encourages health is key to ensuring its residents can succeed. Their staff and partners do this by making healthy living more accessible. They focus on these main topic areas in the links below:
- Supporting Physically Active Communities
- Promoting Healthy Eating
- Preventing Substance Misuse
- Supporting Tobacco-Free Lifestyles
- Preventing Childhood Lead Poisoning
Don't hesitate to check out their resources on social media as well, because a healthy community can better support your healthy student! Click here for their FaceBook page, and click here for their Instagram page.
