State and Local

Public Health Resources

When looking for public health information, it’s important to find reputable sources dedicated to your city and state. These state and local organizations research and report on hundreds of public health issues specific to your area, and on national and international issues that could impact you and your family directly. For example, has a regional flu outbreak made its way to your city? If so, what measures can you take to keep your kids safe? Or, have any food safety recalls been announced and are you at risk? Is your child seat safe?
