Thanks To All Our Volunteers! |
The Get Up & Go Board of Directors and Advisory Team members are volunteers made up of a variety of professions and different 'walks of life.' The one thing we share in common is a commitment to the health of the communities in which we live, learn, work, and play.
In addition to their constant commitment, we want to thank the many other volunteers and organizations that have helped this campaign to grow since our collaborative journey began in the Autumn of 2007. For a full list of these organizations and volunteers, see "Partnerships" option on the top menu.
Your dedication has made all the difference in giving the 262,000 residents of St. Clair County more opportunities to lead healthy and active lives. |

2009 Health Policy Summit |
St. Clair County's 9th Annual Health Partnership Conference featured keynote speaker, Mark Fenton, host of the PBS series, America's Walking, and over 150 local community leaders to join a county-wide effort to develop ‘built environments’ and policy changes that facilitate active living and healthy eating.
The event was co-convened by members of the County Health Care Commission, the Get Up & Go! Campaign and the Willard C. Scrivner, MD, Public Health Foundation. Facilitation and funding was made available through the St. Clair County Pioneering Healthier Communities initiative sponsored by the CDC and the Y-USA.
