The Indiana State Department of Health, Indiana Public Health Association, Marion County Health Department and Indiana University School of Medicine Department of Public Health Office of Public Health Practice are pleased to present the 2010 Indiana Joint National Public Health Week Conference, A Healthier America:  One Community at a Time. The conference will be held on April 6 and 7, 2010, at the Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis Campus Center.

Imagine other countries looking to the U.S. as a model of health. A place where everyone has access to health care and services, where we’re celebrated for embracing healthy lifestyles, and our communities and neighborhoods make it easy for us to make healthy choices. We can make a difference.

If every one of us commits to promoting good health in our communities, we can create a ripple effect from coast to coast. Through just one neighborhood that makes its public parks accessible, one municipality that launches a bike-helmet safety program, one group of people who join together to bring fresh foods to school, or one health center that offers a vaccination program, we can create a collage of public health successes across the country.

Block by block, let’s find these small changes and make them today in our communities. The only way to become a healthier nation is to create healthier communities. Join APHA during National Public Health Week 2010 as we work together to create "A Healthier America: One Community at a Time."
