Clearwater County wants you to join them for the Sustainable Farm Family Rural Health Initiative workshop presented by Clearwater County, Rocky Mountain House Agricultural Society and the Farm Safety Centre.

The initiative is open to individuals over the age of 18. The Initiative workshop date is set for Sept. 26, at the Rocky Mountain House Museum (5406 48 St, Rocky Mountain House).

Officials say research into the state of rural health has identified several health and well-being disadvantages faced by rural people which negatively impact their quality of life.

The initiative aims to remedy many of these disadvantages by providing rural Albertans who participate in this program with three annual, in-depth, physical and mental health assessments. In addition to these health assessments, participants are educated about each aspect of the assessment to ensure they fully understand each of their measurements and know how to better manage their health and well-being.

Officials say those who participate in this program are only asked to commit one hour of their time each year over the course of the three-year program.
