Kevin L. Thomas is the County Health Officer/Public Health Coordinator. He is responsible for 16 municipalities in Cape May County in promoting a healthy community. The Health Department’s objective is to protect and improve the health of all Cape May County residents and visitors. This means providing you and your family with protection from the basic threats to public health such as communicable disease outbreaks, toxic exposures, and preventable injury, as well as working to prevent chronic diseases such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.
Because every community has its own specific needs, we are working in partnership with various agencies and concerned citizens to develop new ways to deliver effective programs and health education messages.
Our website is as diverse as the communities we serve. Here, you will find information and links for nearly every health concern. Included are current health related Hot Topics along with descriptions of our Divisions and services.
Your Public Health Department is committed to be a helping resource to every individual in the county. We welcome your suggestions, comments, and questions for our website.
