🦷🌟The HCPH Dental team visited the JD Walker Community Center in Baytown for the Kids2Gether Summer Program! They conducted dental assessments, applied fluoride varnish, and educated the children on oral health. The kids had a blast practicing brushing techniques and learning about healthy eating habits. 😄🎨 #DentalHealth #KidsHealth #CommunityCare

Look who was a little star at the community health worker info session. ❤️ Harris County Pets had the opportunity to share the shelter's mission and vision with community health workers. These incredible individuals dedicate their time to informing people within the community about the resources and services available to them. 🐱🐶 At Harris County Pets, we service all unincorporated Harris County residents and offer resources such as animal control, pet adoptions, education, fostering, volunteering, zoonotic disease surveillance, and low-cost veterinary services. 🐾 With the assistance of these community health workers, we'll be able to spread information regarding these resources to communities that may have never heard of us or are more challenging to reach. Thank you to OCEE's Outreach team for inviting us! ❤️ #CHW #AnimalShelter #CommunityResources
