Inspiring a culture of health and well-being in St. Charles County
Community Strong is a health initiative to improve the health and well-being of St. Charles County. We use a novel approach as a health coalition to build social connectivity to tackle tough topics such as obesity, substance use / misuse and access to care.
Learn about our three pillars:
MOVEMENT
Simple daily exercise enhances your mood, support your immune system, builds and preserves bone mass, enhances brain health, and can improve your relationships!
CONNECT
Access to comprehensive, quality health care services is important for promoting and maintaining health, preventing and managing disease, reducing unnecessary disability and premature death, and achieving health equity for all citizens who live, work, or play in St. Charles County.
MINDSET
Positive thinking helps with stress management and improve your health and build resilience to fight substance use / misuse, lower rates of depression, and provide better coping skills during hardship and times of stress.

What’s New

Craig Tihen - Assistant Fire Chief, Cottleville Fire Protection District
“Community Strong has encouraged and inspired me to drink more water as an intentional daily routine. I have already noticed changes in my energy level and how well I sleep at night.”

Will Klein - Owner / President / Broker - MOVE Realty
“I believe Community Strong can make an impact on our community health by sharing information/events and bringing awareness to living a healthier lifestyle even with our busy schedules. Its easy to feel we lack time and/or money to join a gym, so for me, simply adding a walk or bike ride as an optional way to work will ultimately make me healthier. I also believe Community Strong can bring more awareness to our residents, the value of travelling safely, and the healthy impact going places by foot or bicycle have on our well-being.”

Lisle Wescott - St. Charles Market President, SSM Health St. Joseph Hospital Lake Saint Louis
“The work Community Strong does to create healthy communities is important to me as a healthcare provider-but it’s even more important to me as a resident of St. Charles County. I am proud to partner with this initiative!”
