About Live Well Project
Live Well Clark County is part of The Columbian’s new focus on health this year. We’re building a community resource for local health news and information that aims to help Clark County residents who want to know how to live well and be healthy in this community.
We rely on help from our partners, who contribute content to the site. And from our community advisory board, which has guided development of the site and provided valuable feedback on the topics we cover that are of most importance to the larger health and fitness community in Clark County and Southwest Washington.
We also welcome new contributors and hope to see your comments, questions and concerns on stories, our Twitter feed and Facebook page.
