d. Program Summary: As public health officials, how can we best address the needs of a growing population in an ever changing environment? Public health leaders are already involved in a wide array of health promotion, prevention and disease management programs from AIDS to zoonoses, anti-smoking and immunization campaigns, safe food and water inspections, plus bioterrorism preparedness. But now, as we learn more about the social determinants of health: education, income, housing and transportation – we need to examine an even broader framework for public health action in our communities, large and small. In this program we’ll discuss these new challenges for public health professionals. This program will document and celebrate the important work and achievements of public health today. It will also examine future needs and challenges.
