  • Inspirational Public Health stories from New Jersey. Want to submit yours?

    As you may or may not be aware, NEHA has concluded that "marketing" has not been an effective strategy to promote the interests of public health.  Together with APHA, NEHA is embarking on a new strategy of promotion: they are seeking to frame the story of public health in a way that prompts a positive reaction from the general public as well as policy makers.  NEHA is gathering inspirational public health stories from around the country, and below are two such stories that have been submitted from New Jersey.

    Story #1 - Story of Inspiration

    Story #2 - Story of Connection

    Do you have a story you would like to submit?  Stories should fall into one of the following three categories: overcoming a public health challenge against great odds, solving a public health problem by making a new connection with a non-public health person or entity, or using creativity that results in a new and unique public health program, service or project.  They should read at 5 minutes or less.  We look forward to hearing from you! Please send all contributions to: info@njeha.org  with subject line: My Public Health Story.

  • “If You See Something, Say Something”Campaign
    NEHA and NJEHA is working with the Department of Homeland Security and federal partners to assist with dissemination of outreach and training materials for food establishments. The first link is a one-page document intended to be used for training purposes and posted in work areas within food service and retail food establishments to make employees aware of what they should be looking for each day and what actions they should take if they observe something suspicious. The second PDF document is the official request from the Food and Agriculture Sector Council.
