"Public Health Week" topic for the year is aging

I'm just a fountain of news and links today. From the American Public Health Association:


The Administration on Aging has joined with the American Public Health Association as a partner in National Public Health Week 2005, April 4 – 10, 2005. We invite and encourage members of the National Aging Services Network to promote the week as a way to reach older adults and family caregivers about opportunities to take the preventive actions necessary to keep aging Americans strong and healthy throughout their later years. . .


The materials for NPHW 2005 are now available at http://www.nphw.org/. As a grassroots campaign, APHA invites you to join National Public Health Week as a state, local, or national Partner.


So if you're interested in either the info or the activism, go ahead and check it out. (No endorsement is implied.)
