Outbreak2020! went virtual this year and was a success!

Outbreak! is an interactive, challenging and fun program designed to introduce high school students to the history and importance of public health. We moved online this year with an exciting digital format. Students learned about epidemiology, a wide range of public health careers, and collaborated on teams guided by peer mentors. Students from over 30 communities engaged in live Q&A sessions, breakout rooms, and had the chance to network. We welcome students to join this informative, educational and unique program, now in its eighth year.

*Student and Peer Mentor applications will open in Spring 2021*
