Earlier this year, Coach Riley was accepted into the Moore County Leadership Institute (MCLI) and we promised a monthly recap of each of his new experiences. This past month, Riley was able to check out FirstHealth and the ins and outs of how they operate for our community. If you aren’t caught up, check out Riley's story on our website under the "Events" tab! Way to go team MCLI & Riley! FirstHealth of the Carolinas
