Snow days can be exciting… and they can also be stressful ❄️

Changes to routines, travel, childcare, and schedules can make winter days feel extra long. Today is a good reminder to check in with the people around you 💙

Snow day wellness ideas:
• Check in with kids and teens about how they’re feeling
• Text or call an older neighbor or family member
• Take breaks from constant weather updates
• Move your body safely (shoveling counts!)
• Give yourself extra patience — winter days can be tiring

However today looks for you, staying connected helps keep our whole community healthy.

This past Friday, our team showed their support by wearing orange to raise awareness for teen dating violence. 🧡

Support doesn’t have to stop there—talk with teens, share resources, and help them learn about healthy relationships and how to navigate challenges safely. Every conversation and act of awareness helps prevent dating violence and provides guidance when teens need it.

🏠 It’s Not Too Late to Test Your Home for Radon 🏠

Radon doesn’t follow the calendar. It can build up in homes year-round—and the only way to know if levels are elevated is to test.

Radon exposure increases the risk of lung cancer, but high radon levels are common and fixable.

📦 FREE radon test kits are still available through MCHD Environmental Health.

📞 Call 906-475-4195 to get a test kit or learn more about testing your home.

Protecting your health starts at home.
