National Public Health Week: Assuring a Healthy, Safe and Resilient L.A.

The men and women of your Los Angeles Fire Department join the American Public Health Association (APHA) in recognizing April 1-7, 2013 as National Public Health Week.

This year's national observance highlights the value of prevention and the importance of well-supported public health systems in preventing disease, saving lives and curbing health care spending.

This year, we ask you to join us in championing the work of public health systems and workers - including members of your LAFD, who provide a significant return on investment (ROI) in our communities.

This week, we ask you to be our partner in a Healthy, Safe and Resilient L.A. by...

• Ensuring a Safe, Healthy Home for Your Family
• Providing a Safe Environment for Children at School
• Creating a Healthy Workplace
• Protecting Yourself While on the Move
• Empowering a Healthy Community
