Keep up to date on the state of Connecticut’s public health. Explore the latest from DPH, including:
In Connecticut, public health professionals work behind the scenes every day to protect and improve the health of our communities. From monitoring disease outbreaks and ensuring food and water safety to supporting mental health, promoting healthy behaviors, and responding to emergencies, their work touches every part of our daily lives—often without us even realizing it.
Public health isn’t just one job—it’s a network of dedicated professionals including epidemiologists, nurses, health educators, environmental health specialists, laboratory scientists, and many more. Together, they help prevent illness, extend life, and promote well-being across the state.
This month, the Connecticut Department of Public Health recognizes and thanks the public health workforce for their commitment, expertise, and tireless efforts to keep Connecticut residents safe and healthy.
