The Interfaith Health Network of Schuylkill County

Picture
The mission of the Interfaith Health Network is to develop links with the congregations of the county to make a significant difference in the health of Schuylkill County residents.
The Interfaith Health Network of Schuylkill County:

Congregations can participate in these ways:

  • Health is a matter of body, mind, and spirit
  • Lifestyle decisions account for over 50% of health status
  • Health issues cut across all lines: economic, social, ethnic, religious, age, gender
