Prevention and Wellness facilitates projects that promote prevention strategies to build healthy and safe communities within Big Horn, Fremont, Hot Springs, Park, and Washakie Counties. We believe in improving health by intentionally focusing on growing positive, healthy attitudes and behaviors as a way to reduce risky attitudes and behaviors. Our work is truly collaborative and based on extensive partnerships with key players in multiple communities.  In addition to being the lead on multiple projects, the department works closely with other agencies to assist them in their community prevention efforts.
