Community Engagement
Please refer to our Community Stakeholders Communications Plan below.
The Community Stakeholders Communications Plan is a “living document.” It will be reviewed annually and updated as necessary during the course of the Health Study to reflect feedback from the community and Scientific Oversight Committee, and to respond to changing conditions (if warranted).
