Did you know that the public health sector is currently short by 80,000 workers? This gap highlights the urgent need to inspire and recruit young professionals into the field. CDC’s Public Health Infrastructure Grant (PHIG) has invested over $3 billion to strengthen and grow our public health workforce. This crucial funding will enhance training, expand resources, and support new talent, ensuring we have the skills and innovation needed to tackle tomorrow's health challenges. In August, the King County health department in Seattle, WA hosted a dynamic public health summer camp for students with the help of PHIG funding. This camp not only introduced young minds to the diverse and impactful world of public health, but also emphasized its importance in safeguarding our communities.
