Civic Health Matters
Civic engagement is not the sole property of government or community members or community institutions – it is everyone’s responsibility.
Health is a cultural, socio-economic, political-environmental issue as well as a personal and individal one.

As Citizen’s we need to each be as mindful of others as we are to ourselves and own families.
Somehow, we have become muted at work, and within our own communities.
The good things we use to share with others are becoming harder to share.
This issue is complex and it does need us to think about the role we have at work, in the community and within our own homes.
Is this about politic’s? is it something spiritual or is it just something else?
