National Public Health Week-Day 1 "Civic Engagement" Today is the first day of National Public Health Week which is crucial week as it raises awareness about public health issues and encourages individuals to take action to improve the health of their communities. Each day is a different topic, and today's topic is "Civic Engagement". Civic engagement plays a vital role in Public Health by empowering citizens to advocate for policies and initiatives that promote public health, such as access to healthcare, clean air and water, healthy food options, and disease prevention measures. Together, they foster a culture of wellness and social responsibility, ultimately leading to healthier and more resilient societies. Local civic engagement allows residents to voice their concerns and influence local policies and decision-making processes. This can lead to the implementation of initiatives that address community needs, such as improving infrastructure, enhancing public safety measures, and promoting environmental sustainability. By working together, community members can identify innovative approaches to tackle issues like homelessness, education disparities, and economic inequality Overall, civil engagement at the local level is essential for building resilient, inclusive, and thriving communities where every voice is heard and valued. #nationalpublichealthweek #publichealth #civilengagement #blackmeninpublichealth #community #advocacy

Today, I had my first session as a Community Health Fellow. Overall, it was engaging. The resource person touched on some intricate aspects of community health and in general public health principles. One aspect that fascinated me was when he talked about strategies for effective community engagement. After a brief and concise presentation on community, my curiosity sparked. Thus making me want to a question. So I raised my hand and asked. 𝑯𝒐𝒘 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒈𝒂𝒊𝒏 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒄𝒓𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒃𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒎𝒖𝒏𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝒉𝒆 𝒊𝒔 𝒕𝒓𝒚𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒐 𝒆𝒏𝒈𝒂𝒈𝒆? Here came his response : ✨ Be concerned about the challenge the community is facing. ✨Show genuine interest in giving solutions to their problems. ✨ Practise Empathy ✨ Carry out a need assessment by knowing what the community needs. ✨ Employ the pillars of primary health care (PHC): accessibility, affordability, and use of technology to harness contact between you and the community. Overall, it was an educating session.I look forward to utilizing these skills as a CHC Fellow #CHCFelllow #DISH
