Celebrating
10 Years of Recognizing National Public Health Week
In
1995, former President William Jefferson Clinton
proclaimed the first full week of April
as National Public Health Week. Each year since then the
public health community has focused on issues that
are important to improving
the public's health.
In
our 10th year, NPHW is being celebrated in every
state in the nation. This year, the focus of NPHW
is healthy aging and the tagline is "Empowering Americans
to Live Stronger, Longer". APHA and its partners
will highlight the week through promoting the three
P's in adding more healthy
years to life: Prevent, Protect and Plan.
