Elkhart County Health Department, want grant to address infant mortality

The Elkhart County Health Department is planning on address infant mortality, with a state mini-grant program.

They say that they’re hoping for a $55,850 grant through the Together We Will program. The department says that infant mortality is a priority for them.

The Elkhart Truth reports that if the department is awarded the grant, they will use the money to expand Healthy Babies services with the Healthy Babies program.

That program offers help to pregnant women, especially those who are low-income and at risk while giving birth.

On Tuesday, July 5, the Elkhart County Board of Commissioners voted submit the grant application.

The same Elkhart County health department that is running airtime ads on 95.3 pushing the experimental vaccine (even on infants) is going to pretend to care about infant mortality (that they are causing with their shots)?

Seems legit.
