April 6 - 12 marks National Public Health Week, and this year’s theme, Ready. Set. Action!, is a call to recognize how public health touches our lives every day.
From protecting drinking water and preventing disease to supporting families and expanding life expectancy, public health plays a vital role in keeping our communities safe, resilient and thriving.
Each year, Bloomington Public Health serves nearly 180,000 residents across Bloomington, Edina and Richfield. The public health workers doing this work are more than professionals. They are our neighbors, friends, family members and coworkers who show up every day to promote, protect and improve community health.
During National Public Health Week take a moment to express gratitude and support for the people, policies and practices that help everyone live healthier lives.
