Public health is a legacy that transcends time, a testament to our shared responsibility for the well-being of our community. The roots of public health reach deep into history, where communities recognized the importance of preventing disease, promoting health, and addressing societal health challenges. In Dodge County, this tradition continues, evolving with the times to meet the unique needs of our diverse and dynamic population.

The importance of public health becomes even more pronounced in rural communities that face distinct health challenges, from access to healthcare services to addressing the health disparities that exist in rural communities. Dodge County Public Health is committed to bridging these gaps, ensuring that every resident has access to comprehensive and quality health resources.

Public health promotes programs that prevent injury, illness and spread of disease; create a healthy environment and protect against environmental hazards; promote healthy behaviors as well as mental health; respond to disasters and assist communities with recovery; and, promote accessible, high quality health services.
