This year’s conference theme “It Starts Here: Public Health Through Health Education in Arkansas,” is centered on the role that health education plays on public health at a local and state level. Public health promotes and protects the health of people and the communities in which they live, learn, work, and play. Strategies to improve the public’s health are multifaceted and involve multiple entities, including federal and state governments, health providers, faith- and community-based organizations, and individuals.
