You are invited to join us as we celebrate National Public Health Week 2025.
It Starts Here: The Power of Partnerships.
Public health in South Texas begins with each of us, powering change in our homes and neighborhoods. It’s about how our surroundings – where we live, work, and play – shape our well-being. It’s the understanding that we are all stronger, and healthier, together, through the collaborative efforts of the UT School of Public Health San Antonio and our invaluable partners in health care, academics, government, the corporate sector, non-profit organizations, and dedicated community members.
Explore the resources, events, and various opportunities to make your mark because the future of public health is in our hands, and it starts right here in San Antonio and South Texas.
