National Public Health Week 2023 - Centering and Celebrating Cultures in Health

Our cultures have always shaped our health. We learn from the communities we're born in and that we build together. For this NPHW, we look to community leaders as our health leaders. We celebrate the unique and joyful ways different cultures focus on health. And we look to how we can learn from each other, with humility and openness.  

MdPHA would like to give thanks to Mayor Heath of Salisbury, MD and Mayor Meehan of Ocean City, MD for representing Maryland and proclaiming National Public Health Week 2023 on behalf of their cities. You can find their official proclamations here.
