Journal: Your Goals as a Public Health or Health Education Professional
In this journal entry, you will consider your professional goals again now that you have gained additional information from this and prior modules. As you review the American Public Health Association Advocacy and Policy page, take note of the public health and health education issues that most interest you. Also, consider the media provided that gives you an in-depth look at Howard County Health Department.
To Prepare:
Reflect on the media piece in your Learning Resources and the accompanying Howard County Health Department Organization Chart. Also review the American Public Health Association Advocacy and Policy page located at https://www.apha.org/policies-and-advocacy/
To Complete: Record anything from the Learning Resources that piqued and/or reinforced your interest or made you rethink your goals and briefly explain why. Also, record the issues reported in the American Public Health Association Advocacy and Policy resource that resonated most with you and explain why.
