August News from Health Leads
A Quick Break from Our Regularly Scheduled Programming
This year has already been one to remember! We've published 26 pieces of content (and counting!) to the Essential Needs Resource Library ([link removed]) and blog ([link removed]) . So we're taking it easy this month (and we hope you are too!) with a throwback to some of our favorite resources from the past year - best enjoyed soaking in these last days of summer. And don't worry - we'll be back with fresh content starting next month!

Sincerely,

The Health Leads Team
