Share Description
The People, Power, and Pride of Public Health provides an engaging overview of the field's incredible accomplishments and promise. The first module features interviews with legendary public health figures whose efforts resulted in the saving of millions of lives through vaccines, airbags, and car seats, as well as the federal Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) nutrition programme. The second module brings key public health tools to life through discussions with experienced professionals who have used these tools to save lives, such as data, communications, and policy. The third module consists of a "Carpool Karaoke"-style trip through Baltimore County, Maryland with NACCHO President Dr. Umair Shah to see and hear real public health workers discuss how they serve their communities.
