Big Title
Earth Day 2024
This year, Earth Day's theme , Planet vs. Plastics, calls on all stakeholders- individuals, busonesses, and governments- to unite in combating plastic pollution and protecting our health.
This movement demands a 60% REDUCTION in plastic production by 2040 & the elimination of single-use plastics by 2030, paving the way for a plastic-free future.
We're taking on the Plastic Pandemic from every angle- political, cultural, and personal.
We believe everyone deserves a health & thriving planet, free from plastic pollution. Our commitment stems from a deep understanding that plastic pollution not only impacts our oceans, our land, our wildlife, but also DIRECTLY affects our own health.
Monthly Awareness
April is National Minority Health Month!
Be the Source for Better Health: Improving Health Outcomes Through Our Cultures, Communities, and Connections
April is National Minority Health Month! This annual observance builds awareness about the health disparities that persist among racial and ethnic minority and American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) populations and encourages everyone to take action to end these inequities.
This year's theme, Be the Source for Better Health: Improving Health Outcomes Through Our Cultures, Communities, and Connections, is about understanding how the unique environments, cultures, histories, and circumstances (known as social determinants of health, or SDOH) of racial and ethnic minority and AI/AN populations impact their overall health.
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Minority Health (OMH) is committed to working with public health and community-based partners to Be the Source for Better Health by providing quality, equitable, and respectful care and services that are responsive to diverse cultural health beliefs and practices, preferred languages, economic and environmental circumstances, and health literacy levels. When patients are provided with culturally and linguistically appropriate information, they are better able to create healthier outcomes for themselves, their families, and their communities.
