Organizing for Community Health and Wellbeing Week

Summer is flying by and there are just nine weeks remaining until Community Health and Wellbeing Week!
This year, Community Health and Wellbeing Week also launches our overall Community Health and Wellbeing initiative.
AOHC preparations are well underway:
- LOGO AND TAGLINE: We are currently working with a design studio to create a logo and tagline to help promote the week and Community Health and Wellbeing. In mid-August we will send you artwork, taglines and messaging materials to help promote the special events and activities.
- MICROSITE AND STORIES: We are also in the process of developing a Community Health and Wellbeing microsite. Each week starting in the mid-august we will post a new story about Community Health and Wellbeing initiatives from across our membership.
- LAUNCH EVENT: The CHWW kick-off event will take place early on September 30th and will be organized by AOHC. Details will be announced soon.
Now is the time to start developing your Community Health and Wellbeing event for your local community.
