Due to a water line break in a Newton line that serves the Government Center, the facility will be without water today, February 13, and the Radio Station Rd. entrance will be blocked.  As a result, the Government Center will be closed to the public, and employees are being asked not to work in the facility. This does not impact the Justice Center or Animal Shelter.

Community Health Data

Catawba County Public Health conducts a Community Health Assessment every three years. This document reflects months of input-seeking from community stakeholders, as well as the most recent data available to the organization to inform our county’s health priorities for the next three years.

In interim years, a State of the County Health Report is compiled and includes updated data and progress on initiatives.
