Camp Public Health is such a great way to learn about the many facets of Public Health! Thank you The Ohio State University College of Public Health for providing hands on experience for our students. You’re looking at some of our future leaders in this amazing field.
Last week we welcomed local teens to Cunz Hall as part #CampPublicHealth. Thank you to Columbus Public Health for giving these young scholars the opportunity to see how they can make a difference in their communities.

The @Surgeon_General has once again sounded the alarm on gun violence as an urgent public health issue. We are working with city partners to build resilience and a safer community through anti-violence programs ReRoute, the Right Response Unit, VOICE and the CARE Coalition, but we need your help too. If you have a gun, keep it unloaded and locked, especially if you have children. Learn more about our programs and see how to get a free lock box at https://lnkd.in/gdxxPc9J.

Thank you for joining us, Laurel Beatty Blunt!
Dr. Mysheika Williams Roberts and Judge Laurel Beatty Blunt had a lively and educational discussion today. The judicial system is only one piece of the puzzle that contributes to the fabric of our community. We must break down existing silos to strengthen collaboration and information sharing for the betterment of our community. Expanding beyond individual interventions, and addressing the policies and systems that create barriers to achieving positive health and social outcomes is a key component in addressing the political determinants of health.
