About The Chamber of Health 360° Systems

The Chamber of Health® 360° Systems

The Chamber of Health® is part of the Force for Health® SMARTCounties community health intervention project managed by local area mentors, college interns, students, and citizens who all desire to help make Huntingdon County a healthier community to live, work and play.

It is a highly collaborative and coordinated, multi-agency approach specifically designed to engage leaders from the healthcare, business, education and public sectors to better work together towards ensuring a healthier generation and lower costs for key stakeholders.

It is also designed to be a real-world Community Learning Experience Project, providing an opportunity for active participants to deliver a population health impact project directly to their own community, while learning new skills, like leadership, digital media, and outreach strategies that will better prepare them for a competitive workplace in whatever field they choose.
