Cibola County has figured out what a small, rural community needs to do to develop a healthy environment for children and families: work together and share resources. For the Healthy Kids Healthy Cibola County Initiative, people who are focused on economic development and public health have come together to make it easier for residents to choose healthy foods and be active.
