HEALTHY COMMUNITIES COMMITTEE SEEKS INPUT

The Healthy Communities Committee is giving residents one last chance to get their two cents in on health issues facing Cape Girardeau County.

Southeast Missourian readers will find survey forms on page 13 of today's issue, and also in the Monday and Tuesday editions asking just one question: What challenges exist in terms of making Cape Girardeau County a healthy place to live?

Responses will be included with data collected in a series of town meetings held by the committee, said Nancy Bray, director of marketing and communications for Southeast Missouri Hospital and a member of the committee.

"It's the queston that we asked at all the town meetings," Bray said.

Once compiled, the data will be used to help design community projects aimed at improving health and quality of life in Cape Girardeau County.
