Dear Readers,
We have many challenges ahead on our path to creating the healthiest nation. One thing we have learned in the past 20 years of celebrating National Public Health Week: the public health community can overcome even the most daunting obstacles. Take a moment to remember some of the greatest public health accomplishments of the 20th century.
We all have a role to play in creating the healthiest nation. Take one first step today:
