The annual Appalachian Regional Commission Conference took place September 7 through 9 at the Jenny WileyState Park Conference Center in Prestonsburg. With a theme of “Healthy Families, Healthy Futures”, the focus of the conference was on the health needs most prevalent in the multi-state region of Appalachia. Health officials, educators and community leaders met to share information on progress that is being made, needs that are still pressing and programs that are finding success through local coalitions.

Topics discussed included expanding health-care access for children, preventing substance abuse among adolescents, improving children’s oral health and using information technology to improve the quality of health care.

The Lawrence County Health Department was represented at the conference by Director Faith Frazier, Nutritionist/Health Educator Carolyn McGinn and Community Outreach Worker Patricia

And Patricia Machir, of the LCHD was an invited speaker for the Friday morning session entitled “Community-Based Approaches to Health Promotion and Disease Prevention”. This session described health promotion and disease prevention concepts, and present best practices from Appalachian communities. Machir reported on the creation and activities of the year-old Lawrence County Smile Savers oral health coalition. Formed as the result of an ARC grant to the County, the Smile Savers group sponsors several programs educating parents and students about the importance of good dental health care, and assisting local dentists in providing screening services to children in the county’s schools.

“Mojo”, the Smile Savers’ dental demonstration puppet, (shown at right) was also a part of the morning’s program. Mojo is used to demonstrate proper cleaning techniques in classes for younger children. Other programs initiated by the Smile Savers group include in-school teeth screenings during the Readi-Fests and the on-going “Keep Your 32” program for LCHS ninth grade students.
