“Living
Healthy— A Community Education Series Promoting
wellness, safety, and preventive healthcare in the Heart of Illinois”
The Living Healthy
Series
is a monthly series of public seminars targeting important health and
safety
issues that impact on you and your family. The
best way to stay healthy is to take action now
to preserve your
health. We believe that community
education is an important part of our mission to “Lead
Collaboration to Improve Health” and believe we have created
an excellent program to educate you about how to live healthy.
Each of the nine sessions
will include a presentation by a faculty member from the University of Illinois Regional Health Sciences Site in Peoria. We hope
that the sessions will inspire you to share important health
information with
your friends and family. To facilitate
this, each session will include a “Trusted Sites” bookmark listing
websites
that are resources for reliable information on this topic.
This community education
project is a joint effort between the University of Illinois College of
Medicine at Peoria, the UIC Library of the Health Sciences, the UIC School of Nursing, and the UIC School of Public Health.
These
are the four components of the Regional Health Sciences site in Peoria. This
project
is also supported by the Swain Endowed Lectureship and the National
Library of
Medicine.
