Detroit Public Health Initiative

Detroit Public Health Initiative Diminishing health worry to promote opportunity. Our plan is broken up into three aspects. The final aspect of our club is from an educational standpoint.

The Detroit Public Health Initiative is a student organization at Wayne State University dedicated to recognizing and raising awareness for the plethora of issues that our community faces, regarding various public health concerns. First, we hope to raise awareness of issues facing our community through various service projects around Detroit. These service ventures provide an insight to possible s

olutions to public health issues and also give our members a vivid picture of the severity of these problems. In addition to these projects, we will be organizing our own service project, creating and distributing hygiene packs through organizations such as The Empowerment Plan to those in need. Not only will this help our community, but it will also provide our members with an idea of what it is like to actually tackle public health issues on their own. The second focus of this club is regarding the multitude of careers that are possible to pursue in relation to the public health field. We will be bringing in diverse professionals to speak to our members about their roles, career, and journey to where they are today. We will be welcoming doctors, nurse practitioners, health care administrators, and many others! We plan to partner with Detroit public schools in order to provide basic health education for the youth. We want to instill core safety and healthy habits at young ages to help them live a happier and healthier future. We look forward to your support and making a positive impact on the city of Detroit!
