Health Education

Annette Island Service Unit is working to achieve wellness through education, prevention, and related health services. The Health Education Department's primary function is to develop educational programs that promote health, wellness, and safety that will meet the needs of our community members.

The Annette Island Service Unit and the Metlakatla Indian Community produced a series of ten posters on wellness in 2006. (Click on each image to download a PDF file at higher resolution.)
