funding is available. Some of the programs have been recognized by the State and funding has been
increased in those areas, such as Healthy Pontiac, We Can! and Four by Four Wellness Plan . Additional
funds are available for the surveillance program in the lab where significant discoveries are bein g made,
with research being overseen by Dr. Haggard . The award total is $10,342,094 . A brief discussion was
