The Health Council is a collective of individuals and organizations who care about the health and well-being of Robertson County citizens. The Health Council welcomes anyone to join us! If you are someone who is interested in improving the lives of individuals living in Robertson County please join us for our monthly Health Council meetings. During these meetings individuals have the opportunity to hear about the wonderful work going on in Robertson County and to learn more about the invaluable resources that are available.

Anyone can be a member of the Robertson County Health Council.
