The mission of ACCESS Health is to work with community partners to contribute to the health and well being of our communities by addressing the required Ten Essential Public Health Services. The emphasis of Coalition activities is on:
- Tobacco prevention, cessation, and reduction of secondhand smoke
- Physical Activity
- Healthy Eating
- Chronic Disease Management
- Substance Abuse Prevention
The Coalition recognizes the diversity of the Midcoast area and believes that addressing these health issues requires the cooperation of many community partners.
The primary partner for public health is the Sagadahoc Board of Health and the School Administrative Unit partner is M.S.A.D. No. 75.
ACCESS Health is a Comprehensive Community Health Coalition, and part of a network of Healthy Maine Partnerships, statewide. Our service area covers all of Sagadahoc County, and part of northern Cumberland County, including the following:
Arrowsic, Bath, Bowdoin, Bowdoinham, Brunswick, Freeport, Georgetown, Harpswell, Phippsburg, Richmond, Topsham, West Bath, Woolwich
