Description

Today at noon and 11 PM on KCCC930AM Radio:

She led a World of Warcraft raid team for ten years. Now she's president of the SENMC board and coordinating health programs that are quietly changing lives in Eddy County. From produce distributions to cancer screening barriers to community gardens, Sarah Bowman is one of those people making things happen behind the scenes — and she stopped by the Mountain Lion Studio to talk food access, women's health, and what it really takes to get things done in a small town.

At the Eddy County Health Council, Bowman oversees subcommittees tackling food insecurity, women's health, and harm reduction. The Council has partnered with Roadrunner Food Bank to distribute produce to families in need, is exploring a travel fund for patients who test positive for breast or cervical cancer and can't afford the trip to Lubbock, El Paso, or Albuquerque, and is working with local gun safety educators on free gun lock distribution. A community garden at SENMC is growing — literally — with hands-on classes, volunteers, and grant applications in the works to expand it. To get involved, visit www.eddycountyhc.org or find them on Facebook by searching Eddy County Health Council.
