Carbondale Chamber of Commerce recently issued the following announcement.

The Jackson County Health Department is pleased to announce it will be open Monday through

Friday starting July 2nd. Since the State budget impasse was over-ridden in July 2017, the agency

under the direction of the Jackson County Board of Health has earned state funding, support from

the Jackson County Board and expanded grants from non-governmental sources so that the

department is on solid financial footing and can return to a 5 day per week schedule. The regular

schedule for all divisions will be Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m.

Starting Tuesday, July 10th, the front building nursing clinic and WIC program will offer services

until 5:30 p.m. every Tuesday.

The health department remains committed to protecting your health by providing services to

prevent infectious and chronic disease, and working with the community to prepare and respond to

public health emergencies.
