Weekly / April 1, 2016 / 65(12);331
Every year since 1995, the American Public Health Association has led the observation of National Public Health Week in the United States during the first full week of April. The goal of National Public Health Week is to acknowledge contributions made by public health and to raise awareness of issues important to improving the nation’s health. This year’s observance focuses on building a nation of safe and healthy communities. Additional information about this year’s observance is available at http://www.nphw.org.
In conjunction with this year’s observance, CDC is partnering with the American Public Health Association to promote daily themes for National Public Health Week by sharing information on CDC topics that align with each day’s theme. Additional information is available at http://www.cdc.gov/features/public-health-week/.
