Real World Public Health Day

The Institute for Community Health, in partnership with the Cambridge Public Health Department, sponsors an annual practice-based experience for local public health students called Real World Public Health (RWPH). This one-day event is an introduction to a day in the life of a local health department through discussions, tabletop exercises, and a panel of local public health officials.

In April 2007, we welcomed students from graduate programs in public health at Boston University, Harvard University, and Tufts University to participate in timely real-life exercises around healthy weight promotion, mold and indoor air quality, and pandemic flu.
