Getting Information on Health Issues

The Grant County Health District is a source of health and health-related information. Release of public information is covered in our disclosure policy. Individuals and agencies wishing specific information can contact the Assessment Coordinator in Moses Lake at 509-766-7960 ext. 21. In addition, you may retrieve information yourself from web-based resources. Rather than try to put information from a variety of web sites, we have chosen to link the reader to these sources of information. By so doing we are assured you will have access to the most up to date information. These links include generally important public health sites, and each page may have more specific sites relevant to the content of that page.
