The mission of the Public Health Coalition is to collaboratively promote public health awareness, education and service in the Yale and New Haven communities. We build awareness of opportunities and events through our weekly electronic newsletter to 1000+ Yale students and faculty. We educate students about public health issues through our weekly lunch discussions, masters teas, film screenings, and panels. We foster interdisciplinary discussion of public health topics through our blog and advocacy campaigns. We encourage collaboration between public health related groups on Yale's campus through liaison support for our 50+ member groups, coordination through our website's master calendar, and a semesterly member conference to bring groups together. We promote health-related volunteer and service work in New Haven through our position as a network of Dwight Hall, our semesterly booklet of volunteer opportunities, participation in campus service initiatives and volunteer trips.
