What is Community Wellness?

Community wellness refers to the combination of social, economic, environmental, cultural, and political conditions that individuals and communities identify as essential for their flourishing potential fulfillment (What Is Community Wellbeing? | Taking Charge of Your Wellbeing (umn.edu)). What that means at DML is the library is a place where you can come to get connected to resources and support, and build healthy community connections. Promoting wellness in all areas allows people to be better students, workers, and citizens because basic needs are being met. DML is committed to doing our part of this important work.

Support and Resources

Food Distribution

Some DML Branches have partnered with The Foodbank, as official Pantry Partner locations in Montgomery County.

Adults with ID or proof of Montgomery County residence in need of food assistance are eligible to pick up an emergency food box at a DML Pantry Partner location. Patrons may visit a DML pantry once a month.

Peer to Peer Support

Peer support is to help you build hope. It is where you can share what is going on in your life, what goals you are working towards, or simply vent if you are struggling. Peer support is free, informal, and confidential.
