“The Oakland County Wellness Coalition (OCWC) is a group of business leaders, health care advocates and wellness experts engaged in the Oakland County, MI business community. The OCWC provides free resources to organizations to help them successfully integrate wellness best practices into their workplaces while empowering employees with the ability to achieve their individual wellness potential. The coalition was formed in November 2005 to address the economic impact of rising health care costs on employers.”
Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson presented on Economic Development as it relates to the health/wellness in the community. The auditorium was at capacity. It was a great opportunity to network with other health professionals. For more information on meetings, events, and how to get involved visit http://www.oaklandcountywellness.com.
