Part II: INSTRUCTIONS: Complete the chart below. In each box in column 1, you need to select four public health concerns from the list below. Your task is to find health-related organizations/agencies and a link to their website that address these issues at three distinct levels:

1) Governmental Agencies (column B)

2) Quasi-Government Agencies (column C)

3) Non-Governmental Agencies (column D).

Then, in column E, write in one or two sentences explaining why this issue is a public or community health concern. Remember that public/community health focuses on populations, not individuals. Think back to your explanation in Part II outlining the differences between public health medical services. You are required to review scholarly research to determine the role of public health as it relates to these issues. Each description MUST include a citation.

Please note that your description of the importance to public health should not be rooted in the individual medical health care. Public health focuses on populations, not individual care. See the example below to help you with your worksheet responses.
