Donna Nichols
Executive Director
The main goals of a public health department are to protect and improve community health by monitoring,
preventing disease/injury, ensuring safe environments, responding to emergencies, promoting healthy lifestyles,
developing polices, and ensuring access to care, ultimately aiming for health equity for all. They achieve this through
data analysis, education, community partnership, and creating law/standards, working behind the scenes to keep
populations safe from hazards and outbreaks.
