Public Health Advocacy Team Goals - To identify and share existing resources that support the public health priorities of the Surgeon General with nurses to help facilitate public health outreach at the national, state, and community levels.
- To identify, develop, and implement public health initiatives that can readily be adopted by nurses to help promote positive health outcomes among Americans.
Specific Objectives/Tasks and Champions - Identify the clearance process and required look and feel for HHS/SG-related Web-based and printed materials. Also, identify resources available on the SG and HHS Websites that support the priorities of the SG that may be useful to our nurses and have them linked to the SG priority Webpage on the NPAC website. – Project Leader CDR S.
