Assignment:
Prepare an article that could be published on Health and Wellness With Purpose blog. For this article, you will select a national health observance (i.e., Health Literacy Month, Childhood Obesity Awareness Month, etc.), describe the health issue or topic of focus, and articulate a clear health message.
Exemplary submissions may be eligible for publishing on Health and Wellness With Purpose blog, so students should use audience-appropriate language and write as if for publication. This is an opportunity to gain early recognition and be featured within the public health community.
Prepare an article of 500 to 750 words in which you accomplish the following:
- Describe the health observance and history.
- Provide an overview of the health issue.
- Describe the populations most at risk or most affected by the issue.
- Summarize ways to improve the health issue.
- Provide a clear health message to influence behavior change related to the issue.
- Incorporate at least one resource to support your blog post article.
APA style is not required, but solid academic writing is expected.
