These videos are designed to provide you with a broad understanding of the topics that are discussed in class. This week, our focus is on understanding public health basics: prevention of disease, clean air, clean water, and food supplies. You will also learn about how different cities approach and manage their public health issues for residents’ maximum well-being.

This week, evaluate your own community in terms of integrated approaches to public health. Select a focus on disease prevention and control, air, water, or food.

· What community-based strategies do you see in place to protect health?

· What health services, local organizations, or national organizations exist to support wellness in your area of focus?

· Does pollution or contamination in your area impact the focus you selected?

· What does your community need to do to improve public health in the area you selected for this discussion?
