Award of Excellence in Public Health

Every Spring, the Health Department honors an organization, group and/or individual dedicated to the advancement of public health efforts. 

Through the Award of Excellence in Public Health, we seek to encourage and support those who give of themselves in an effort to further public health through collaboration with Health Department initiatives. Consideration is given to the furtherance of the Northern Kentucky Community Health Plan and the Healthy Kentuckians 2010 Objectives.
