Public Health 101 Workshop
CTE Teachers (Health Services and Agriculture/Sustainability)
Our "Public Health 101" workshop offers participants a chance to learn how public health is connected to everything, everywhere, all at once. We discuss foundational knowledge in the field, explore public health concepts and examples, and learn about unique public health histories in our own community.
The resources below include links to content mentioned in the workshop. We are happy to share our workshop resources in the section below for past participants (and those curious). Please let us know, and attribute our work, if you share or use these materials outside of personal use. Mahalo!
