Health & Human Services

The mission of the Health and Human Services facet is to promote and facilitate programs that support the maintenance of good health and the elimination of chronic health disparities in communities of color through education, health advocacy, and optimal utilization of health resources. Community education about health risks is crucial and the Bergen County Chapter of The Links, Incorporated plays a significant role in providing that education. Our chapter partnered with the American Heart Association in a movement health initiative by presenting a Dance and Movement Night. (see below) Also, the chapter presented numerous presentations about healthy eating habits to the children at the Bergen Family Center in Englewood.
