As we come to the close of National Public Health Week, one thing is clear, our gratitude doesn’t end here.

Behind every healthier family, every safer neighborhood, and every life touched by care, there are people who continue to show up with compassion, strength, and purpose.

To our public health workforce and community partners: your impact doesn’t follow a calendar. It lives in the trust you build, the care you give, and the lives you uplift every single day.

We don’t just celebrate you this week, we carry that appreciation forward, today and always.

In partnership with CenCal Health we’re honored to stand alongside you in building healthier, stronger communities. 💙

Ahora que llega a su fin la Semana Nacional de la Salud Pública, una cosa está clara: nuestra gratitud no termina aquí.

Detrás de cada familia más sana, cada barrio más seguro y cada vida a la que llega la atención sanitaria, hay personas que siguen estando presentes con compasión, fortaleza y determinación.

A nuestro personal de salud pública y a nuestros socios comunitarios: vuestro impacto no sigue un calendario. Vive en la confianza que generáis, en la atención que prestáis y en las vidas que mejoráis cada día.

No solo os celebramos esta semana, sino que llevamos ese agradecimiento más allá, hoy y siempre.

En colaboración con , nos sentimos honrados de estar a vuestro lado en la construcción de comunidades más sanas y fuertes.

As we wrap up National Public Health Week, we’re proud to celebrate the incredible people who make our work possible every day 💙

Throughout 2025–2026, our Star Awardees (Employees of the Month) have gone above and beyond to serve our community, from our health centers, to animal services, to every corner of our Public Health Department. They truly represent the dedication and excellence that define our workforce.

To celebrate them, we asked each honoree one simple question: “How do you promote good health in your life?”

Their answers, featured in each post, are a great reminder that public health starts with all of us.

Once again, thank you to all our outstanding team members and the impact you make every single day. 👏
