Thanks to everyone who came together at our homecoming celebration, including the Zuckerman family and all our inspiring award winners! It was a great way to reconnect and remind ourselves what public health can accomplish.

So many of our alumni, faculty, students, staff and supporters joined our Homecoming event on November 4 (MEZCOPH Homecoming Celebration 2021: Honoring our Public Health Alumni and Community Leaders).

All the stories of our award winners were truly uplifting, and showed the power of public health in action. We were so pleased that the Zuckerman family was able to attend, along with so many of our Community Advisory Board members, and many other supporters who were able to hear the acceptance speeches from our amazing award winners. We thank you all for being there, for supporting the college, and for the vital work you do to improve public health in diverse communities, here in Arizona and around the world!
