MISSION
As Mason County
enters the next century, Mason Matters is
committed to enhancing the health and
quality of life of local residents through
a concerted effort that includes all
sectors of the community. Through Mason
Matters, we will capitalize on the
strengths of the community to take
problems, take advantage of opportunities,
and celebrate success.
VISION
We envision a
community where each and every individual
can proudly say
- I live in Mason
County in the 21st century.
- I am a high
school graduate and have enough
education and training to work locally
at a safe job that pays a living wage.
Our county's diverse economy provides
me with a satisfying job that enables
me to support my family.
- I am careful
about my health. I exercise regularly,
don't use drugs or smoke, and watch
what I eat. I get regular medical and
dental check-ups and obtain care when I
need it.
- I pay close
attention to the well-being of my
friends and family. I know that
problems like mental illness, drug and
alcohol abuse, domestic violence, and
child abuse can happen to
anyone.
- I regularly
volunteer my time, resources and
skills. I want to make a difference in
the lives of local children, youth,
adults, and elders.
- I care about our
environment and participate in efforts
to protect it. I am proud of the
natural beauty of our area and take
responsibility for maintaining
it.
- When I retire, I
plan to stay in Mason County and remain
an active member of the community. I
hope that my children and grandchildren
live here and that we all can enjoy the
many benefits our community offers
us.
