- **Event Name**: Public Health is Personal: Keeping Each Other Safe
- **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 17 Jun, 2025 at 05:30 pm – Tue, 17 Jun, 2025 at 07:30 pm
- **Event Description**: We’re bringing in experts from Northern Nevada HOPES  to help us break down what’s happening  with public health and what’s at stake.About this EventPublic health isn’t just about hospitals and vaccines — it’s about clean air and water, access to healthcare, life-saving medical research, and a strong, prepared workforce of scientists, doctors, and public health professionals. But right now, public health is facing an unprecedented crisis.Cuts to funding, Medicaid rollbacks, and disinformation aren’t just policy decisions — they’re putting millions of lives at risk. Research budgets are being slashed, driving scientists and medical experts to leave the U.S. or abandon critical work. Public health agencies are losing funding and staff, leaving communities unprepared for future crises. Meanwhile, rising disinformation about vaccines and healthcare policies is fueling a decline in trust, allowing preventable diseases to return.That’s why we’re bringing in experts from  — a federally qualified community health center on the front lines of public health — to help us break down what’s happening and what’s at stake. Every day, HOPES provides critical healthcare to thousands of Nevadans, regardless of income, insurance status, or housing. They see firsthand how bad policies and disinformation create barriers to care — and what happens when people are forced to go without it.This isn’t just about one group of people—it’s about all of us.When we defund public health, we weaken our ability to prevent and respond to crises. From pandemics to environmental disasters, public health infrastructure is our frontline defense. Slashing funding now means slower responses, fewer resources, and more lives lost when the next crisis hits.Medicaid cuts don’t just affect those who rely on it — they strain our entire healthcare systemOverburdened emergency rooms, rising healthcare costs, and untreated chronic illnesses are the direct result of underfunding programs that keep people healthy before they get critically ill.Science and research drive innovation — but funding cuts are pushing experts outWhen we defund medical and scientific research, we don’t just lose potential cures — we lose the brilliant minds behind them. Top researchers are choosing to work in other countries where they have the resources to advance life-saving discoveries.Disinformation isn’t just noise — it’s dangerous.From vaccine myths to public health conspiracy theories, the spread of false information is leading people to make choices that put their health — and their communities — at risk.Public health isn’t a luxury — it’s a necessity. It protects us all, and when we let it crumble, we all pay the price. Now is the time to take action. Let’s fight for policies that keep our communities safe, healthy, and thriving.SpeakersDr. Trudy Larson, M.D.Dr. Trudy Larson, a third generation Nevadan, retired as a professor and founding Dean of the School of Public Health at the University of Nevada, Reno in 2021 after a 37-year career at the university.During her academic career, she focused on HIV and Immunizations in her clinical work and research at the UNR School of Medicine and later at the School of Public Health.
