Florida Project Public Health Ready (PPHR)

Every county in Florida is at risk for natural or man-made emergencies or disasters.  One of your greatest challenges during disasters becomes balancing emergency responsibility with continuing routine delivery of public health services.

Project Public Health Ready (PPHR), a partnership program between the Florida Department of Health, the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO), and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), is an effective tool for increasing community preparedness. Its comprehensive framework can structure your efforts to enhance staff proficiency and confidence in responding to emergencies.

Florida was the first state to coordinate this national public health program statewide, and encourages all of its CHDs to participate.

 

 

Congratulations to the Florida CHD PPHR national recognition winners!
