Family Engagement Month is a great time to celebrate the important role parents and families play in their children’s wellbeing. DOH-Okaloosa encourages residents to join us at Family Field Day. Attendees will celebrate Family Engagement Month and learn more about how you can help drug endangered children in Okaloosa County.

What is DEC-C? The Okaloosa County Alliance for Drug Endangered Children and Communities (DEC-C) is part of the National Alliance for Drug Endangered Children (National DEC). DEC-C exists to build awareness, provide trainings and programs, and offer tools to help make a difference in the lives of children, families, and communities. In Okaloosa County, DEC-C is part of the OCHIP Healthy Children group.

What is OCHIP? OCHIP is the Okaloosa County Health Improvement Partnership. We are mobilizing for a healthier Okaloosa! The group’s goal is to foster an Okaloosa that is safe, informed, nurturing, diverse, tolerant, and has access to quality healthcare. OCHIP is made up of passionate community members and leaders working together to address health issues. This includes improving the walkability of our community, increasing mental health services for students, and helping parents raise healthier babies. Currently, there are four OCHIP Groups: Healthy Behaviors, Healthy Children, Healthy Communities, and Healthy Moms and Babies.

This is just placeholder text. Don’t be alarmed, this is just here to fill up space since your finalized copy isn’t ready yet. Once we have your content finalized, we’ll replace this placeholder text with your real content.

Sometimes it’s nice to put in text just to get an idea of how text will fill in a space on your website.

Traditionally our industry has used Lorem Ipsum, which is placeholder text written in Latin. Unfortunately, not everyone is familiar with Lorem Ipsum and that can lead to confusion. I can’t tell you how many times clients have asked me why their website is in another language!

There are other placeholder text alternatives like Hipster Ipsum, Zombie Ipsum, Bacon Ipsum, and many more. While often hilarious, these placeholder passages can also lead to much of the same confusion.

If you’re curious, this is Website Ipsum. It was specifically developed for the use on development websites. Other than being less confusing than other Ipsum’s, Website Ipsum is also formatted in patterns more similar to how real copy is formatted on the web today.
