Each year, the Community Health Advisory Board honors individuals and agencies, often unsung, who fit the category of helping angels.

Nominations are now being accepted for the Island County Linda Lee Martens Health Hero Award.

Islanders who know someone or an activity deserving of such recognition are encouraged to submit a nomination to the advisory board. Applications are available for downloading at http://www.islandcounty.net/health/CHAB/default.htm.
