Metacomet Public Health Alliance offers Several Public Events

The Metacomet Public Health Alliance is a collaboration among the Towns of Franklin, Norfolk and Wrentham to provide professional public health services and programs for the member communities. The Alliance is dedicated to improving the delivery of public health services and thereby improving the overall health and well-being of the member residents. The three contiguous communities recognize that working together on some public health challenges can be more effective than addressing them alone as individuals.

The Town of Wrentham serves as the Lead Community (management/fiduciary agent) for the Alliance. Initial Alliance efforts are concentrated on providing expanded public health nursing, sanitary inspections & enforcement, environmental health and emergency preparedness coordination to member municipalities.
