Clean hands. Healthy communities.

Today, GCHD recognizes Global Handwashing Day and the important role something as simple as washing our hands plays in protecting our health.

Regular handwashing with soap and water helps stop germs from spreading and can prevent illness at home, at school, at work and throughout our community.

Take a few extra seconds today to lather, scrub, rinse, and dry, and encourage those around you to do the same. Small habits can make a big difference!

Clean hands start with all of us.

October 10 is World Mental Health Day.

Mental health is an important part of our overall health and well-being. Today is an opportunity to raise awareness, reduce stigma and remind one another that seeking support is a sign of strength.

At Galveston County Health District, we encourage everyone to take time to check in with yourself, your family, your friends and your coworkers. A simple conversation can make a meaningful difference.

Together, we can help create a community where mental health is talked about openly and support is within reach.

Narcan saves lives and the data tells an important story.

Galveston County Health District has released its latest report examining Narcan distribution, opioid overdose trends, and prevention efforts across Galveston County.

The report provides a closer look at the impact opioids are having in our community and reinforces why access to Narcan (naloxone), education, and overdose prevention resources remain so important.

Behind every number is a person, a family, and a community. By understanding the data and working together, we can strengthen prevention efforts and help save lives.
