Significant Contributions to Public Health – Part II
This is a continuation of your final project, which you started in Week 3. This last piece involves an analysis of how your individual’s contribution from the past continues to contribute to today’s public health system and how it might guide future work within the industry. As you recall, in week 3, you researched an individual and their contribution to community and public health. To begin, you need to review the feedback given to you from Week 3. Then, make the necessary revisions to Part I of this project. Then, you will be adding the second half to your project. 
Follow this outline to help formulate your paper or presentation:
ACTION: Make sure you review all the feedback from your Week 3 (Part I) assignment and apply any necessary revisions. Your week 3 assignment should have included each of the following elements:

GRADED ELEMENT : Analyze the impact of your individual’s contribution on today’s public health system.

GRADED ELEMENT : Analyze how this contribution is still relevant today

HELP: Was this contribution only applicable at the time it occurred, or is it still applied today? Why or why not? Explain your response

GRADED ELEMENT : Examine how this contribution could support or be expanded for future community and public health benefits

HELP: Using solid critical thinking, look at the historical value of the contribution and examine how it could be used for the future (is it applicable to another health issue, can it lead to more policy change, could it promote advocacy work or public health laws, etc.)
