Join us for a half day workshop on June 3, 2016 to learn about how a changing climate may affect public health in New Jersey and about strategies to better prepare New Jersey’s public health practitioners and professionals to address these impacts.
The workshop will provide an overview of how a changing climate may affect human health, the latest research on public health implications of climate change, and leading efforts around the U.S. to prepare public health professionals and agencies to address impacts from climate change. A panel of New Jersey public health practitioners will discuss challenges and opportunities and lay out possible next steps for action in New Jersey.
The June 3 workshop is sponsored by the New Jersey Climate Adaptation Alliance (http://njadapt.rutgers.edu/) in partnership with the New Jersey Public Health Association, the New Jersey Association of County and City Health Officials and the Rutgers University School of Public Health, and the New Jersey Department of Health.
