Community Health and Outreach

The Lord Fairfax Health District is dedicated to addressing adverse health outcomes by working outside of the health department through education strategies, community outreach, and evidence-based health interventions. Health equity is a key focus when addressing adverse health outcomes, especially when working with rural populations, minority populations, or otherwise disenfranchised populations.

Public health staff is available to answer your health questions through your local health department. They also are available to speak to community organizations, schools, youth groups, and churches. Reference materials, informative pamphlets, and literature can also be obtained through the health department.
