Idaho Public Health Association Providing a forum for individuals and organizations to work collectively to assure conditions in which Idahoans will be healthy.
Public Health is the science of protecting and improving the health of communities through education, promotion of healthy lifestyles, and research for disease and injury prevention. Public health professionals analyze the effect of genetics, personal choice and the environment on health - so they can develop programs that protect the health of your family and community.
In Idaho, the many faces of Public Health include research, disease prevention, environmental safety, health education, public policy, infectious disease control, physical activity and nutrition, and more. Are you one of the faces of public health in your community? Please send us news of your activities to post!
And, please consider joining IPHA to enjoy the membership benefits of professional education, social networking, and information sharing. You can join or renew online and begin receiving local, regional and national news related to public health research, advocacy and health promotion.
