Browse your local newspaper or other local publications for articles that focus on public health issues at the local, state, and/or national level. For example, reports or articles that discuss a train collision, an earthquake in California, the dedication of a new park in your neighborhood, an outbreak of the flu in Texas, low-cost child immunization clinics, or a free traveling mammogram program for low-income women are all examples of public or community health issues.

• Locate two examples of community or public health issues from a local publication, magazine, or newspaper. The examples you select should focus on completely different topics for example, select one article that discusses a new park and another article that focuses on plans for a new coal-fired power plant.
• Write a one paragraph summary of each article. Include a proper reference to the source of the article.
• Include an additional paragraph that explains why you consider these articles to be public or community health.
• Your original post should consist of complete sentences and include three paragraphs.
• Reply to at least two of your online colleagues posts with reflective questions, substantive comments, or relevant personal experiences.
