Follow and join the conversation with #NPHW and #NPHWChat.
The American Public Health Association (@PublicHealth) brings together communities across the United States to observe National Public Health Week (@NPHW) as a time to recognize the contributions of public health and highlight issues that are important to improving our nation’s health. We may be physically distant from each other, but now it’s more important than ever to come together, hence the 2021 theme is “Building Bridges to Better Health.”
