SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – The San Diego County Board of Supervisors declared Tuesday San Diego State University School of Public Health Day, in recognition of the 40th anniversary of the university’s graduate school, which officials said contributes to a large majority of the county’s public health workforce.
A proclamation was delivered at Tuesday’s Board of Supervisors meeting by County Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer.
“From developing public health leaders to advancing medical knowledge to promoting health equity, SDSU’s partnership with the county of San Diego is invaluable,” Lawsom-Remer said. “SDSU prepares almost 75 percent of the public health workforce in the county, including our very own public health officer, Dr. Wilma Wooten. SDSU’s School of Public Health has been a steadfast partner during this pandemic and will continue to be one of the region’s most important institutions for decades to come.”
