Somerville Community Health Agenda (SCHA)

The Somerville Community Health Agenda (SCHA) is the other node I just added. It's an organization that works closely with the Cambridge Cambridge Health Alliance, Somerville Healt Department, and the community that works to improve the health of Somerville residents. They do a lot of collecting and assessing community health data, and support other community coalitions that work on issues which affect health and quality of life such as substance abuse prevention, youth development, children's oral health, nutrition, etc. etc. Like SCALE, they were very interested in what we are doing, and especially since SCHA already has so many connections to other community organizations, I think they would be avid users of the network. One thing is when I added the node, I noticed there was already one called Somerville Health Agenda - is that the same thing?
