📚 First day of school isn’t just for kids!

Our OSHA 511 students are kicking off their first day with a little back-to-school spirit and a lot of commitment to workplace safety. 🦺

Investing in the knowledge and skills of today’s safety professionals helps build safer workplaces for everyone. Here’s to a new class, new knowledge, and another step toward creating safer, healthier workplaces! 👏

💜 Overdose Awareness Day — August 31 💜

Today, we remember the lives lost to overdose, stand with those who are grieving, and recognize the people and communities working every day to prevent overdose and save lives.

Overdose is a public health issue, and prevention starts with compassion, education, and access to evidence-based resources. Knowing the signs of an overdose, understanding the role of naloxone, and reducing stigma can help save a life.

There is no shame in asking for help. There is no shame in offering help. And there is always a reason to keep working toward a future where fewer families have to experience the devastating impact of overdose.

Center Director Mitchel Rosen, PhD, Associate Professor and Center Manager Koshy Koshy, PhD, and Instructor Alejandro Ruiz, MS, CIH, CSP, CHMM, CIT, SMP, CHST, CIC joined others from Rutgers yesterday for an incredible tour of the Palisades Tunnel site of the Gateway Tunnel project in North Bergen, NJ.

This is a critical $16 billion infrastructure project building a new two-track passenger rail tunnel under the Hudson River, improving reliability for over 800,000 daily commuters on Amtrak and NJ Transit when it opens in 2035 (current predicted opening). Thank you to Mike Gobbo, US Director of Operations at Mace, for helping to make this visit happen!

Today we celebrate the 19th Amendment expanding voting rights to women—a right that gave women a voice to shape the policies that affect their lives, workplaces, and communities.

That voice is critical in public health. From access to healthcare and education to workplace protections and community wellbeing, the decisions made by elected leaders have a lasting impact on population health.

Today is also a day to reflect on the importance of ensuring that everyone has a voice and uses that voice to shape the health of our communities.

Congratulations to our Director Mitchel Rosen on this well-deserved honor from the American Public Health Association!
