We’re excited to be starting this blog on behalf of public health efforts in the state of Idaho. As students of public health, we’ve seen a need for a centralized place to discuss and promote public health in Idaho. So much of the information we receive on a daily basis is about national and international public health efforts. Finding up-to-date information about what’s going on in Idaho is a little harder. It’s our hope that this blog will not only help to build a clearer picture of the public health happenings in Idaho, but will foster a discussion of how national and international topics of interest affect us locally.
The best part about creating this “clearinghouse” of information in blog format is that you can be a contributor, too. Take time to comment on our posts and build on the ideas presented here. Tell your friends about P.H.A.T. Idaho. And email us at phatidaho@gmail.com with ideas for future posts, upcoming events, or new publications that you think are of interest to Idahoans tracking the public health scene.
Thanks,
Carrie & Kate
