April 3-9, 1995, has been designated National Public Health
Week. Federal, state, and local public health agencies throughout
the country will collaborate with private organizations and
educational institutions on activities to promote healthy
lifestyles and to heighten awareness of the essential services and
benefits of public health.
The Public Health Service, the American Public Health
Association, the Association of State and Territorial Health
Officials, the National Association of County and City Health
Officials, and other national public health organizations have
suggested activities to their constituents to increase
understanding of the role of public health in protecting and
improving the health status of individuals and communities. The
theme for the week, "Public Health Is You, Too," focuses on the
role persons can play in protecting their own health and that of
their families and communities.
