DAVIS COUNTY—The Davis County Health Department (DCHD) is partnering with Waterford.org to provide young families a one-stop-shop for community resources to find the support they need. Both entities offer families assistance ranging from nutrition to early learning through “connection visits,” where staff can get to know them to better understand their needs.
