Celebrating Women's History Month @ the Ector County Health Department.
Did you know that our health department is currently run by an all-women team? Each department consists of multidisciplinary women who collaborate daily to help provide public health to Ector County residents. The ECHD provides in-house health services, epidemiological infectious disease prevention, surveillance, and outbreak response, food safety, and environmental inspection and regulation.

This month, we appreciate women all over the world for their brave and ongoing work that continues to shape our society for the better. 🩷
