National Public Health Week

Join us in Celebrating National Public Health Week, April 6 - 12, 2026

Ready. Set. Action! is this year’s theme. As we celebrate, take a moment to recognize how public health has improved our daily lives, safeguarded our families, expanded our life spans, and strengthened our communities. This week is also a chance to honor the public health workers who show up for us every day — and to advocate for policies and practices that promote good health for all.

About NPHW

Join us for the 2023 NPHW Twitter Chat on Wednesday, April 5 from 2-3 p.m. ET. We'll chat about all things public health, celebrate everything public health has accomplished and talk about where the movement is going.

Make sure you RSVP online and follow @NPHW on Twitter to get updates about the chat. Use the official hashtag, #NPHWchat, in your tweets so users can easily search for what you and others are saying during the event.
