Moving Fairfield Forward!
We are a community that cares about each other; where we live, learn, work, and play.
Building a healthy community by providing local resources and opportunities through advocacy, funding, and partnerships. Our vision is to work with our partners to transform Fairfield County into a healthy community.
A Healthy Community is one where all residents have access to: a quality education, safe and healthy, adequate employment, transportation, physical activity, good nutrition, and quality health care. (Definition courtesy of UNLV)
