Recent data from County Health Ranking, showed St. Lucie County is ranked 26 of the 67 counties in the State of Florida and has been in those lower figures over the years. Florida Health Department in St. Lucie County, sought out our marketing services to develop new logo and website highlighting programs on fitness, weight loss, and wellness for employees, students and residents in the county. The branding campaign website will be accessible for desktop and mobile users.

Healthy St. Lucie ­ is a community driven initiative to assess, plan, and promote wellness in the community. With goals to reduce the county¹s statewide public health ranking and improve the health of its citizens through community workshops.

The campaign has already kicked off workshops under the direction of Donna Harris, the Health Education Specialist for the Florida Department of Health in St. Lucie County.  She coordinates workshops on fitness, diet, and overall wellness for all ages. Harris has a Master¹s degree in Health Promotion from Mississippi State University and is a Master Certified Education Specialist, practicing Health Education for more than 15 years.
