WE ARE… Penn State Health. We care about the communities we serve. Related to the priorities discovered through our Community Health Needs Assessment, here’s a snapshot of what we’re doing.

PaWS (Pantries and Wellness Support)

Penn State Health leads a high-energy, multidisciplinary team that offers health information and free health screenings at food pantries across our service area. Called PaWS (Pantries and Wellness Support), the team provides blood pressure tests, flu shots, cardiovascular disease screenings and health education to families that visit the pantries for food assistance.
