Community Communications Network (CCN)

Community Communications Network (CCN)

The Community Communication Network (CCN) is a partnership between Public Health – Seattle & King County (Public Health), Community and Faith based Organizations, and Community Leaders to ensure relevant, actionable health information reaches all populations in King County.

Messages are typically communicated by email from CCN@kingcounty.gov. Please email CCN@kingcounty.gov if you are interested in joining the CCN network, or if you have any questions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Health Alerts and Health Advisories are sent as needed. CCN email updates are sent periodically and include links to grant resources, service information and other relevant material. During an emergency, messages will be sent more frequently, depending on the scenario.

It is preferred that several contacts from each organization are enrolled. Each Organizations will have a Primary Contact. This means that the Primary Contact can monitor who from the agency is enrolled in the network and makes changes or updates as needed.

If translated material, such as flyers or videos, are available, it will be included either by attachments to the email or a link to a website.

If you are the Primary Contact for your organization, please work with your employer to identify someone to replace you in that role. If you are no longer associated with your organization, please change your account information to reflect your updated contact information or delete your membership if you prefer not to continue as a member.
