In 2017, we developed the Harold K. Bengsch Award to honor Bengsch, our previous long-serving director of public health, and his unwavering belief in the value of collaboration and cross-sector approaches. The public health system works best when people across our community—healthcare professionals to community leaders and anyone in between—collaborate to improve the health of our population.
This year’s award recipient is Peggy Davis, the recently retired commissioner for Greene County’s Drug, Mental Health, DWI and Veterans Courts.
