Rural Health
The Rural Health Extension Program Team offers scientifically supported initiatives and programs to help all South Carolinians prevent and self-manage chronic disease. We do this through community partnerships, group and individual education sessions, and a library of written resources on topics from healthy eating to stress relief (for written information and factsheets visit HGIC).
The Rural Health team continues to offer our proven-effective programs through online options. Sign up for a program today and start your journey to a healthier version of you! While you’re at it, follow us on Facebook for daily posts on health and nutrition tips and information.
