A resource room is open to the public with pamphlets and flyers on a variety of health-related subjects. Topics include birth control, STDs, parenting, cancer, environmental health, substance abuse, immunizations, heart disease, stroke, diabetes and wellness, and many others. Students who need to develop a resource file on health-related topics for a class are welcome. New sources for information are continually being researched to offer the most current information available.
