National Public Health Week
National Public Health Week - April 5-11, 2010 A Healthier America: ONE COMMUNITY AT A TIME Stay tuned for activities for National Public Health Week and Colorado activities. To stay up-to-date on events planned, visit the National Public Health Week Colorado Facebook page and check out the NPHW website. If every one of us commits to promoting good health in our communities, we can create a ripple effect from coast to coast. Through just one neighborhood that makes its public parks accessible, one municipality that launches a bike-helmet safety program, one group of people who join together to bring fresh foods to school, or one health center that offers a vaccination program, we can create a collage of public health successes across the country.
Be a public health champion and join the cause. No matter how small a change may be, we need your help to become A Healthier America: One Community at a Time. Throughout National Public Health Week, a series of activities will focus on how we can work together to build a healthier nation—in neighborhoods big and small, one community at a time.
National Public Health Week is organized by the American Public Health Association. Since 1995, NPHW has been celebrated across the United States and in Colorado.
