Health in the Mascoma Valley Health Initiative Towns
Health Improvement initiatives in the Mascoma Valley are guided by a broad definition of health. We use the definition: "Health is a state of well-being and the capacity to function in the face of changing circumstances." That definition is from Why Are Some People Healthy and Other Not, by Evan, Barer and Marmor, 1994. The definition suggests the broad range of influences on the well-being and capacity to function of the people in our towns. The influences are inter-related and overlapping, but they can be organized into the following domains:
