We are hosting our second human-animal health fair (street clinic) for people who are either experiencing homelessness or who have recently been experiencing homelessness and their pets. We are offering medical services and health screenings for people, veterinary care for pets, human and pet sanitation supplies and food, as well as access to housing applications and drug and mental health treatment. We partner with both human and animal health agencies.

To mark this worldwide celebration, we would like to tell you about the important work that APHA scientists are doing in One Health on a national and international scale via a blog we will be publishing on the APHA Science GOV.UK blog site on November 3rd at 10am. The link (https://aphascience.blog.gov.uk/2019/11/03/one-health-day-2019/) will go live at this time.

One Health Week will be a week of different activities on the UConn campus bringing awareness to the one health concept. There will be an information tabling event to teach passing by students about one health, a campus trash clean up, a DIY toothpaste making event, an involvement fair so students can learn about different student organizations on campus that focus on one health-related topics, and educational opportunities including a speaking event with two animal epidemiologists. This week will bring the ideas of one health to the forefront of discussions at the University of Connecticut.
