Analysis Of Websites Of Your Local Health – Public Health

In your post,
- Include the name and website of your local health department.
- List and elaborate on two services provided by them.
- For each service, identify the core function and essential public health service it corresponds to (Table 5-1 in your textbook).
- Reflect on whether you were aware of the role your public health department played and whether you learned of services that you were not aware of (Reflection: approximately 120 words).
