Knowledge is power. Build your knowledge about health, and you become more powerful in staying healthy.

We believe education contributes to our overall vision: to be the healthiest community in the United States.

If a professional is available the day you request, he or she will travel to your group meeting location. Please keep the following in mind when making your request:

• Group meetings should be held in the greater Williamsport area.
• Allow about 15-20 minutes. The speaker will provide an overview of the topic rather than a seminar or workshop.
• Please make your request 2-4 week's in advance.
